1. get your 2.0 psp
2. download a 1.50 update to your computer
3. hex edit it and change all strings of 1.50 to 2.10
4. put it on a memory stick in a folder called "f:/psp/game/update"
5. get another memory stick
6. put your homebrew/emu on it in a folder called "f:/psp/game/update"
7. put the memory stick that has the edited update on it in your psp
8. run it
9. when it shows the psp logo, take out the memory stick and put the one with the homebrew/emu on it in the psp

its sort of like a combination between therod's procedure and swaploit, but it might work. im too scared to try it.

why dont you try it then? How can you be so selfish to expect others to "risk their 250$+ merchandise into a brick?" If you really want to see if it works that badly...try it yourself. Otherwise, I do not think that a legit PSP 2.0 firmware hack is completed at this fast of a pace. Besides if this WAS really legit...wouldnt it be more popular? Go use google and find out if ANYONE at all has used this and confirmed of its credibility.

yes but theres a chance if he throws out an idea someone who knows wat they are talking about can confirm/dispell what he suggests, or maybe a rich child devver can do it.

Also iPod firmware can be updaed, thats how you load on custom fonts and images, from hacked firmwares, dont believe me? My iPod has numerous image hacks. And a font one.

yeah $250 + The very valuable memory stick.. unless any of you have a warranty for the PSP and MS you could try it almost risk free :)

I GOT IT!!! I know how we can get some noobs to try it on their PSP!

1. Get the program uploaded somewhere
2. Go to some other good hacking site and post it on their forums
3. Then some of us cool people at dcemu can pretend that it works (IE: "OMG IT WORKS IT WORKS I CANT BELEVE IT WORKS!!").
4. Post on here to tell us if you were joking on the site or for real (So we can seperate the real ones from the real noobs hahaha).
5. :) No, it wasn't my idea

sorry about the roughness of plan, just outlines lol

And this contributes how?

its been thought of and tried. dont waste your time with this.

Well nobody seems to want to try it out, so if some real noobs got to try it and it worked then we could party! :D

The real noobs saw a PSP jumped off the chair and bought a DS.
