gimme ur thoughts. you might want to get some antivirus software just in case...
it says the site has been frozen pls explain to us what he said :)
no offense, but as 2.0 has only been up for a day, i really, really sincerely doubt this is legitimate and real, its most likely a hoax, but of course, i could be wrong, and that would be cool!
(but highly unlikely)
i doubt it too ^^ maybe Sony was right about allowing homebrew? maybe thats y he hacked it so quikc, yay! i like to make stories to make myself feel better ^^
the program can be easily a hoax :P
well before we go shooting it down sombody with 2.0 email him and snag the beta to test it out. :)
[File Name: Xpatcher V.01]
[File Size: 1.56MB]
[Release Date: July 27, 2005]
[Details: This will patch the 1.00 pbp file to work on the 2.00 psp firmware Version.]
[How to Use: After you patch the pbp file you will have to create a folder called "1_00_2" under the game directory.
now that you have that you will have to get the patched pbp file and place it and its contents into a folder called "X_200".Replace the "X" with whatever number you want the program is.For example if you have only two programs.Folder 1 needs to be called "1_200" and Folder 2 needs to be called "2_200".If you do not number them right you will have curruption errors! For example if I named folder 1 "3_200" and folder 2 "7_200". Then you will have errors.They need to be number with "X=1 to the number of folders in the directory!!" ]

This has virus written all over it.
well, its a good thing i saved a picture from the site before it was frozen. here is a pic of the prog:

and in case you were wondering, i am not xpatcher. i found this site and i am spreading the word. btw, i started this thread with my psp.
interesting, but most likely not true. Guess we shall see when the site gets unfrozen
unfrozen most likely tomorrow. if you go there, you can see that it says "monthly bandwidth exceeded".Quote:

After downloading this file, follow these instructions:
1. Connect your PSP to your computer via USB.
2. Browse to your PSP's Memory Stick (usually E:/ or F:/)
3. Create a folder called "PSP" if it is not already there.
4. Create a folder inside "PSP" called "GAME" if it is not already there.
5. Create a folder inside "GAME" called "UPDATE" if it is not already there.
6. Copy and paste the file you downloaded, "EBOOT.PBP", into the "UPDATE" folder.
7. Close the USB connection.
8. On your PSP, go to Game, then Memory Stick, then "PSP Update ver 2.00".
9. Choose it and follow the instructions.
If I were a sony exec, i would hire people to do this and report that it works to get users to update to 2.0 and not be able to crack it.
Hire people to do what?Quote:

i would really recommend against updating to 2.0 if you want to use homebrew, as neone is certain if this is a hoax, tho it probably isQuote:

that link on this page leads to nowhere for me....
I decided to look in to this and here is what I found
So you see Xpatcher isn't even for pbp's it is for patching other machines without doing a base install. Anyway if he somehow has a version that he made that is for pbps then maybe it is true but it is looking more and more like hoax.Quote:
XPatcher 0.1.5.1 beta (June 9, 2005) - Basically it allows you to download all the files to the local HD, burn it to cd, scan a local machine and patch it. No more doing a base install, plugging it into the network and having it infected before you can get it patched since you can now do that all offline.
'releasing' a 'program' that unlocks 1.51/2, and it's actually the upgrade to 2.0 would be fun if there was a board to 'Post your comments' :evil:
god damn hoax's and I was actually going to LMAO if it was true to see Sony's new systems cracked so quickly
Wait hold on Cross.Quote:

also In My Humble Opinion.....or thats what ive always known it was.
I know we have not been told, oh and IIRC hd me stumped for a long time (If I Remember Correctly)
Anyway I know noone has said if its good or not but its been awhile and nothing....
I've never posted here before but am a regular reader...
I was wandering, what if this is exactly like KXploit, just you need different directories?
Would make sense, as Sony still needs some way of using games from the mem stick - there has to be some way to do it...
Right?
EDIT: Just got how stupid my idea really is... Nevermind...
Third sentance still applies though, it can be done, the question is how...
Sony can do it fine. They just use the correct key to sign their executables. The Kxploit is a hack so you don't need the key.
i prgrmzored teh haxor for teh psp!!!!!!! 1337 m3!!!
on a more serious note, once something that actually works to unlock v2 firmware is released it will be released all over major psp websites, which check their facts. wait till then, now i'm off to boot up photoshop and PROVE to all of you I have programmed a hack for it;)
i don't want to risk screwing up my psp, so ill ask this: can someone try this? it might work (slim slim slim chance)
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.
Some people in this world make me sad to be human......That is all I will say :rolleyes:
was that an insult? im trying my best to come up with hacking ideas, you retard. i haven't seen any contributations to the forums from you, hypocrite. just search for posts by me.Quote:

Actually, this works for ipods, in fact its even easier, all you have to do is change your version number in 1 file on the ipod then run a more up to date firmware updater, and your ipod will re-update.
ipods can update?
not update but be installed with linux
the best way to know if this stuff works is to wait if wraggster puts it on the forums cause he has his conections :) plus its bin like a week, just keep waiting til lthe 1.51 or 1.52 get hacked
