Why do we still use 1.5???

Like i mean 1.5 is good and all but didn't anyone think about 1.0? from my part thats the best firmware because no exploits are required to hack it it doesn't have to be kxploited or anything. I think we would be able to make an ENTIRE new firmware if we had 1.00 because we can run ANYTHING we would want on it really. why do we not do this? why do we not use 1.00? why don't we downgrade to 1..00 and make an entire new operating system for it? not saying its easy but i think it can be done! also full acess to your psp!

well with CF it's better since 1.5 apps require 1.5 most of the time

In case you didn't know, harleyg is making an operating system that replaces the XMB and can be run from a 1.5. I'm assuming that you don't REALLY know much about what a 1.0 can do versus a 1.5 because you didn't really list any advantages of 1.0 besides not having to use kxploit and to "make an entire new operating system for it" which I already addressed. I also don't really know of the differences between 1.0 and 1.5 so if you know and could tell me that would be great.

Yeh harleyg is making 0x89 its a whole new OS pretty much and i use harleyg V2 custom fiwmware and i can use 1.0 eboots. but this 2.71 se i dont like because of this spiltiing eboots etc im gona stay at 1.5

the only advantage of a 1.00 psp that i have seen is the load times. A 1.00 psp loads homebrew much faster than a 1.50.

1.0 disadvantage so far is cant load devhook but unless u dun need comercial games then 1.0 might be better for you

But isnt 1.0 jap?Are all language in jap I mean commands like mem stick and stuff?

1.5 has so many more advantages, more games and apps are made for 1.5...devhook is available and personally 1.5 virgin sounds much better than 1.0 downgraded from 1.5

1.0 is JAP.....but i think you can change the settings to english :D

1.5 is the USA's PSP

My opinion on this is just to stick with a 1.5, Because as tuta and PlagueMusic said, most homebrew for the psp only works on 1.5 ( eg. devhook, xflash ( i think ) and a few others )

I agree on this too, even though it allows you to have 2.71 firmware with 1.5 capabilities, id rather keep 1.5 ( because you never know, somthing might only work with 1.5 CF and not 2.71 SE )

2.71 SE in my opinion is just to much of a hassel, so I to will stay with my virgin 1.5 psp :)

Thanks for Everything,

1.00 is Japan original firmware.
1.50 is North America original firmware.

The difference is that 1.00 can't run as much homebrew cause it lacks certain prx files and such.

lol ill stick with my 1.5 cayse its pretty. lol im a slacker and i dont want to go through the issues of getting it all set up.
