Firmware 3.10 Available on US Network Update

[E.J.]

Hmm, it sounds strange.. i'm sure this is just some emergency update to patch the GTA exploit issue, but now again... to jump from 3.03 to 3.10...

it would be good if the Pops compatibility has been improved, otherwise its not very atractive.

we'll have to wait and see what happens with DA.

Basically this says that if Sony wants to stop homebrew, they are resorting to bricking their own product. This is hilarious. I can't wait for Sony to get sued.

thats messed up, haha ill be pissed if a new psp has this update thats whyim getting a used one D:

The bricking would be unintentional.
Also the update file would have no idstoreage checker.

Think about it. PSP's are bricking, right? . Right. To downgrade a TA-082 or otherwise yo have to modify hte idstorage, right? Right. so. Sony have simply done their usual patch. Which doesn't account for storageid. Thus bricks are happening because the firmware cannot update the PSP properly.

Has anyone investigated what model PSP's have been bricked?

ive just check to see if i can update my psp...and yes i can and i live in the uk...so its now out in the uk too, not just us and......the other country. lol

I highly doubt that the rumour about updating and bricking is true. Sony aren't stupid enough to render loads of their own products useless.

[LilSwish722]

...I wouldnt be to sure of that. People are buying the PSP mainly for homebrew, and they are trying to fight that now aren't they.

The thing is, they are bricking because people modified the psp, which technically, aren't allowed to do. If the update bricks their psp after being downgraded, sony could probably prove they modified it and give no warranties. On the other hand, if Sony can't prove it, the user who tried upgrading would have to be refunded.

thats a good point. i never thought of that.
