PSP Update 2.80 Available

If you are currently on v1.00-2.60 DO NOT UPGRADE!!! Doing so will result in you no longer being able to play ANY homebrew. This is merely for those who have v2.71 and developers who want to look at the file.

Video RSS, that's it...I think, otherwise it's just Sony's excuse to block out homebrew, again.

To be honest it would be better for devhook to hold back for a while, and let sony get comfortable again - hardly any games came out on 2.71, if devhook is upgraded straight away then they'll just release another firmware!!

I have to be able to play GTA Vice City Stories on my 1.5!

i know that dude. it also has them dang 'security patches' to block homebrew. and if you dont beleive me then go ahead and upgrade... then try to play DOOM or SNES9xTYL on your psp.

i was just emphasizing the fact that the upgrades are all crappy and the features are just a cover to the security patches. duh

i dont ever remember learning a way to downgrade to 1.0.... wow. i thought i was on top of things.

Yes it is

There was a 1.5 -> 1.0 downgrader released recently.

Anywoh i just hope its DH compatible and Undiluted Platinum Compatible. Just ordered one :)
July 27th, 2006, 11:08
Kramer

not much point in downgrading since theres custom firmware that lets you use 1.00 eboots plus much much more

Dear Sony,

I'll just stick with my 1.50 firmware, and keep playing Earthbound for SNES on my lunch break at work.

Thanks,

Juggaleaux

P.S. Nice avatar, Screwie5150. ;-)

I just downloaded that eboot and it says:

"The system software of your PSP(tm) system is version 2.71
To start, you must update to version 2.80 or later.
For update methods, refer to the PSP(tm) system instruction manual."

Sony: we'll never force a firmware upgrade.

:o
July 27th, 2006, 11:50

Here's a thought, and it too is weak.

What happens if you upgrade the PSP when it is running a simulated firmware through devhook? Since f0/f1 are hooked to the memcard, does it flash the faked firmware files? or does it hard code to the real f0/f1

i'm sure its the real f0/f1 but its worth a thought... come on booster, get NAND emulation working then we can all upgrade in memory! :)

This update is crap. You cant even stream the rss videos, you can only save them to your memory stick. Videos can now be played from ms0:/psp/video finally though.

I could never see the point in why Sony just didn't program the PSP for video playback from the PSP/VIDEO/ folder. :rolleyes:
