well if they can make an app that works with the custom fw(hold X to load the proggy) that wouldn't allow the psp to go to the XMB and u would have to hold X right after turning on the psp to put in the password...that would be coolQuote:

EDIT: BL8Z3D247: wtf? What would the point be of holding X? Who in the right mind would steal a PSP and hold X when booting up? That completely removes the point, because you would only hold X if you wanted to enter a password, which, if someone stole your PSP, they probably wouldn't. Use Dark_aleX's custom firmware mod - it loads programs on startup without you having to hold X (which I use for iRShell) and your idea seemes to be based around a program. Doesn't that not mean that they could hit "HOME" and Quit the game? Or just remove the memory stick before turning it on and have no bother. You need to think before you speak. Don't take it personally :D
lovein this
that's the point they wouldn't beable to use it if they didn't know how to pull up a password screen :rolleyes:Quote:

this is interesting :)
if i was a theif i would definately shit my pants if a psp turned off my computer. the i would returnm it to the guy i stole it from. although i am not a thief.
But it wouldn't automatically stop access if it was a normal program. Theyd still be able to access everything, and there would be no point in holding x if you knew there was gonna be a password screen.Quote:

Edit: EEK! Double posted...
Remove those instructions... It isn't something to put on this forum, as it is VERY damaging. I'm sure a mod will edit it if you don't...Quote:
