PSP og homebrew

[stylus]

Jeg tenkte jeg skulle kjøpe en PSP til sønnen min.

Jeg har sett litt på nettet ang. "homebrew".

Sønnen min er 8 år og ikke akkurat i den alderen der man passer godt på tingene sine.

Da er "sikkerhetskopiering" av spill og selvfølgelig er muligheten for å laste ned slike, en stor fordel.

 

Forstår at en trenger en PSP med 1.5 i firmware.

Disse er vel ikke så lette å få tak i lengre. (hvis man ikke kjøper brukt....)

Downgrade av firmware er jo en sak, men med en ny PSP (med siste FW) blir jo dette litt vanskelig.

 

Modchip er også en mulighet, men har ikke helt sett at det er kommet noen som er god og stabile enda. (det er mulig at jeg tar feil.)

 

Håper det er noen som har noen synspunkter pådette?

Fant dette som var lagt ut på nettet i går:

 

Today hundreds of PSP's will say hello to the world as they run their first piece of homebrew - the "Hello World" application. This will be made possible by a new exploit found that does not require one to own a copy of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, but rather load a simple image off of your memory stick. This remarkable demonstration can be executed on 2.0, 2.01, 2.50, 2.60, 2.70, 2.71, and 2.80 firmwares!

 

If you are stumbling while reading this sentence, I wouldn’t be surprised. I just told you that you are now able to execute a homebrew application on 2.0-2.80 firmware. Now that you know it is possible, you are probably wondering how. With the combined effort of several dedicated users – NOPx86 (provided the original x86 proof of concept), psp250, skylark, joek2100, jimp, cswindle and Fanjita, they have managed to execute the first piece of homebrew on all firmwares above (and including) 2.0!

 

Less than a week ago, Fanjita dropped by our forums to tell us that a newly discovered exploit is indeed genuine and a usable exploit. This “exploit” started off as a discovery by NOPx86 in libtiff. He managed to find vulnerability and as a result – alter it to crash the PSP and many other image viewers. Fanjita, NOPx86 and the rest of this exploit team have put their hearts and souls into this exploit, and as a result they were able to execute a Hello World application on all PSP’s with the ability to view tiff files (2.0+). This application runs in "User Mode", but kernel mode will be achievable on all firmwares except 2.80.

 

To execute this “Hello World” application on your 2.0+ PSP, please follow the following directions -

1. Unpack the ZIP file to your PSP's PHOTO folder

2. Navigate to your PSP's PHOTO director and attempt to view the newly transferred picture

 

Note: You may find that the screen does not show correct (occasionally happens) - just restart your PSP (fully shutoff by holding the power button up) and open the picture again.

 

Spørsmål: Hva vil FW på en PSP være hvis jeg kjøper den i dag? (mest sansynlig)

 

Here at PSPUpdates, there isn't anything more exciting than news on a new exploit working, and this is no exception. Please feel free to share your shouts of joy below in our comments section as many have or will be going back to school soon - this comes at the best of times! We will continue to cover this breaking news as it happens, so you can rest peacefully without the fear of missing something.
