Too bad DAX was driven away by the damn leaches of the psp community. He probably has the greatest firmware, we'll never get to see

If your tv doesn't support that cable, you can't play games on it. I would assume even if someone hacked this functionality, games would run slower while output to a tv. Sucks for us slow pokes who haven't upgraded to HD yet.

For a minute there I was really worried
Don't you ever do things like that

There's a thing called a joke... Anyways... This is good news and hopefully when the time comes for the Slim to be hacked I might consider getting a slim version and sell my old psp. Nice job guys. keep up the good work.

wraggster, please change the misleading title and article, or you ExcruciationX - don't bother asking, it's your article.

Cloudy

Look, sorry if anybody got their hopes up.

But, I didn't change it. It just quoted QJ.net's article (linking back to them of course). wraggster changed it as he stated in his post.

y did alex quit anyway? it seems kinda selfish of him to actually say that he would hack the slim for himself and not for the public..

publicly releasing his stuff was making his life a bit ruff i imagine. we have no idea how much sony was bearing down on him.

the original model has far less than 32mb, despite the nand specs saying so.

flash0: 20.9mb
flash1: 3.5mb
flash2: 988kb
flash3: 700kb (ish)

flash mem on the psp tends to say you have about 5-10% more than you really do. if you dont believe me, try it. i've experimented with it for months, corrupted flash1 twice too ;)

.....so, the slim is a few mb shy of tripple, but definately beyond double

hopefully there's a flash4 n flash5 ;)

It seems that people don't like to read these days. And I will repeats again:

DARK_ALEX IS NOT BACK.

But, if I'm not mistaken, the new PSP has 66MB of NAND flash.
This means several things if this is true.
-Sony plans on forgetting about the original PSP and leave it without firmware updates.
-Plenty new functionality for the PSP Slim.
-Crazy themes when it's finally hacked.

not true at all. here's how much known free space there is on 3.52 official fw:

flash0: 0.001%
flash1: 95%
flash2: 100%
flash3: 100%

and when they do fill up, they could...

1. impliment an upgrade barrier that says "leave out X feature"

2. install feature X on ms0

much how OE firmwares featured a compiled hybrid of firmwares in a DXAR file, sony could transfer PRX modules to a single compiled encrypted streamed file. but then there's the problems of "oops i deleted" / "my ms is corrupt" / "didnt make a back up"

3. trade X feature for Y

and in system settings, they could have a feature management utility which can re-enable / disable.

you will prolly see Location Free TV disappear first

edit:

they could also adopt a module-compression technique to store them compressed and dynamically unzip to RAM where and when needed

this could be applied to either all files or just select files. it could range in anywhere from 1-10mb saved (from flash0 alone. which contains 100% of operation modules, and 98% of current firmware by size)

It would be great if he just did the stuff he does for himself and then gave it for someone else to release, and not say they made it but not say he made it either, just maybe give a little hint ;) It would be nice, but probably frustrating as given no credit for your own work...

LONG THREAD... so apologize if it has been asked/answered...

Will the 64MB help a lot for homebrew? (I.e. Mame/N64 emus?)

If so, and a Pandora version for Slim comes out, I'll be lining up to buy one...

Hey guys, I know this is still OT but figured I'd followup in here since this is where the question came up.

If anyone has old composite (red white yellow) inputs only on their tv with no component (red green blue red white) your not screwed for not being able to display games on the tv. I don't know how good it will look but you can get this system selector here:

http://www.amazon.com/Pelican-Access...9182555&sr=8-1

which takes hd connectors as input, and output in both composite and component.

Good thing is its only 20 bucks !!

It made my day! Now I just gotta get the component cable for the psp.

so your using that as an adapter to go from composite to regular rca? i already have something like that with composite hookups so could you pm me if you try it and it works?

This is all good ...

I'm thinkin does newest games will work as well as well on slim? maybe psp slim use those 64mb of ram tu speed up games and old one psp became an loading monster?
September 7th, 2007, 20:57

no old games just load slightly faster like new ones.

So i reckon that they used the pandora battery with something like 3.52 ipl, because if i remember rightly it is possible now, or maybe there custom ipl, be cause 1.50 is blacklisted, and the IdStorage is encrypted so obviously not possible to use the original magic memory stick. Then they used the nand dump function and BAMMMMMM there they have the dump, i cant see why this wouldnt work, math did say its easy.

Just wondering is this dump encrypted or have you found a way to decrypt the dump already, because if i remember rightly you had figured out how to decrypt most firmwares as they were released.
