More information on the Leaked official Sony PSP Unbricker

[steve520]

If i had one of those things i would buy tons of bricked PSP's of the internet and then unbrick them and sell them for more money.

[splodger15]

The 'unbrick' trick does NOT lie in the leaked software. The trick is the ability of the base station to initialize all of a bricked PSP's hardware so you can write to the flash.[/B]

^ ^
Most people in the PSP scene had known that already. There is assumptions the "Jigkick" battery contains kernel access then it runs these leaked files.

This software is launched when the battery is implemented

If i had this batery i would sell it!

[psp411]

if this "battery" (base station) gets out with the software, ill be VERY happy

[Cokemusic]

i need to go steal one of these and sell it on ebay for 1000000000 dollars

No even better, get the whole homebr3w community to raid sony factories worldwide emptying out all these base stations.

Downgraded version 1.5 PSP's for everyone !!.

Bit dodgy! Reading some of you ladies comments made me think... False

[burrito]

it appears that the bottom three pins all do the same thing as they would still be semi hidden behind the warranty label so they need 3 pins(RED CIRCLE) to confirm the connection
the other pin seems to come from the yellow power socket(PINK CIRCLE) not sure whether it is +v or -v but it seems that you just short these holes as with the NDS flash process




(All of this is speculation its not my fault if you try it and brake something further)

I found this on another site. I think there is no special battery, but you first need to do something to these pins, then load the "special memory stick".
And the board DOES connect directly to the motherboard.

Isn't that hinting something? What could be so special about a battery. Like I understand the use of software to unbrick but a battery? I had a PSP sent back around March this year and when I got it back, there was a new face plate on it so I thought the motherborad got replaced or something until now when I look to c if its a TA something. This is interesting news.

[burrito]

I heard that sometimes Sony gives you back a different used psp.

[razorak]

like the Refurbished 1.5s? i've seen them around...lol. In fact, some of them are still bricked xD
