More information on the Leaked official Sony PSP Unbricker

[YourStillWithMe]

The software is already leaked people, I have it. I'm sure there is something else to it aside from the software. . . .obviously. . . .I'm sure somebody will figure it out and than post on a forum somewhere.

Most people have the software already now.

if this software is leaked cant omeone find what it acceses/ does and work out what else it needs to work?

im sorry if im being a bit noobish but why does anyone care?

[splodger15]

Well it fixes bricked psp's it tells you in the title.

it also needs a special battery to work plus we dont have bthe battery

[Man]

If people figure out this battery, then the price for it is going to be huge, because people will try and sell it so that other people can unbick lots of PSPs, and to be completely honnest with you, a "special" battery, sounds a little fishy to me. But i could be wrong, lets hope.

New information has come to light on the official Sony PSP unbricker. According to internet reports, a gamer sent a bricked PSP to Sony who then returned it with a memory stick inside and contained a slew of files. As already established the memory stick is useless without a special hardware battery which accesses the battery pin that enables writing the IPL from the memory stick.

Contents of returned PSP Memory Stick

- Binary encrypted full NAND image.
- Required modules for system control for use by IPL of debug hardware.
- Logging module for debug log review (log is saved after full write).
A file used for testing that the system plays well (usually a demo of a PSP game).

Special Battery hardware specifications

- 1.1v-3.5v debug unit for connecting through the serial port in 3rd. battery pin.
- Transmission of data is UNENCRYPTED but uses a XOR algorithm for transmission (easily parsed and analyzed).
- Contains any number of IPLs (different ones for each motherboard revision (TA-XXX))
- IPL is loaded into the Kernel Memory. ME area seems most likely (IPL of the PSP is the same but missing 2 essential modules that the debug unit has).
- Contains ipl_mg_modules.bin and ipl_mg_nanddriver.bin
- IPL is encrypted in 3 stages. Easily decrypted to show stages, but not for decrypt each individual stage.
- Contains a 40x120 column TFT screen for display.
- Has a SERIAL port for PC connectivity.
- Seems to have a 32MB ROM IMAGE on Flash.
- 8MB of RAM.
- Nickel-Cadmium Battery Cell (possibly 76 hour battery life).
- AC/DC adapter port 15V.
- Contains 4 buttons (on/off, reset, connect/disconnect, menu).
- Arrow keys UP and DOWN for menu.

The dump is useless it's been leaked for AGES on QJ, even the minna no golf savedata on the MS has the same crc !, now ps3news are trying to make it look like it's a new leak to gain visitors. The battery (if it's really a battery as it could be a special hardware that uses some other ports) has never been leaked and I doubt anyone could walk out from SCE repair centers with one of those.

End of story.

This thread should be locked.

lol

[zoson]

yes, please lock this and never bring it up again. It's a waste of everyones time to revisit this.

Can this reflash any fw?

ya it means that when you update you can puposly turn the psp off and reflash any fw you want thats what they mean when they say we would win the war because ther wouldnt need to be anymore downgraders
