This sounds great!

1)We wouldn't have the option to update, since it would be impossible

Update formats the flash0 partition and then write the new firmware files to it. It doesn't matter how much you've added to it, as it'll just be deleted.

2)We wouldn't have to worry about writing to flash, since we couldn't!

I never said you couldn't write to flash0, I said you can't remove the XMB without bricking the PSP. Learn to read, thanks!

You really need to do some research man...

How about you do the research and reading? Thanks.

It's obvious you're all brain-washed by harleyg's XMB replacement words, which it really doesn't. I'm not the only person who knows this, btw. There are many high-level developers who know this and voice it in more respectable forums, such as PSPU's.

PSPUpdates is far from being a respectable and reputable source of information. The fact that you even said such proves to me that you are a fool beyond any doubt and that any proof you may have had in substantiating your claim is now completely nullified.

The fact remains, the XMB can be altered. Custom firmwares, font packs and new backgrounds all alter the XMB. If the XMB can be altered, whole or in part, it can be replaced.

If you do not wish to believe so, that is your choice. But considering that harleyg was the first to make a custom firmware, I'd think he'd know alot more about it than you. And to reiterate my point above, you believe that PSPUpdates is a respectable forum, which that in and of itself proves that you know jack $#@! about the PSP and the Homebrew scene.

Hah. And that response shows you're a complete fool.

Er, you know the custom firmware is an extremely simple modification that doesn't change the XMB or firmware at all? It simply renames one file, vshmain.prx and then loads another in its place. The thing is, though, the new one, once its done its job, loads the original vshmain.prx. The XMB and firmware itself is unaffected, there is no change to it.

Er, Dark_AleX made the first custom firmware. harleyg simply added a few more options to it. Link to Dark_AleX's thread on it.

If files can be altered, they can be replaced. Simple as that.

harleyg knows what he is doing.

In a way, the firmware is just a Operating system, Admittedly totally specialised, but just like Windows is. But yet Windows can be Replaced with Linux, and lots of other operating systems. The media, be it flash0, or flash1, or the memory stick is immaterial.

Unless you have greater proof than what you have, or have the knowledge to make it yourself, then please keep your opinions to yourself.

When 0x89 nears release we'll have more information on how it works and we'll know if it can work as specified. So we'll just have to wait and see.

I agree 100%. In fact, I'll drop the 'issue' until then =).

People lets stop the arguing, after all nothing has been released, to argue over yet XD
