why do you guys want a mod chip? When software can do the same thing.


and about what I said befor about the sticker swapping, do at your own risk. shhh BTW holding a blow dryer over the sticker will soften the glue for perfect removal

its the sticker on the bottom. the long white one with a bar code to the left of the screw.

I'm 98% sure that the kid at EB or whatever will scan the serial number to see if it matches your receipt and box code. of course with your handiwork it will. If you have some guts, it will work every time. They are NOT going to look behind the battery. That code is really only tracked through Sony. Your local retailer only goes by the numbers on the outside of the PSP and the numbers on the box. And for some reason if they question you, just say "oh shit man I picked up my brothers PSP by mistake". Plus at EB workers get paid like 10$ an hour, do you really think they care?

*Like I said I am not condoning this in anyway shape or form, just dropping some shady knowledge on ya's.


Software does everything your PSP needs i.e. 3.10 OE-A is software. All your PSP plugins and homebrew is software and so on.....

Software modding really got big with the Xbox1 and now the 360. Thus the term "SoftMod"

I still have to disagree about the software thing. Your PSP FW was written no doubt on the computer. The hackers have to de-compile the code, mod it, then recompile the code.

If its for the PSP, xbox, space ship, or new micro-waves they all are driven by the software. My 360 DVD drive has a modded software so it can read backups. And a dvd drive isn't a computer but yet there is software written for it. So just because the programmer transfers the FW code to your PSP it is still software. It doesn't change.


OK back on topic.

sofware is what is used to compile "code"

....its just code until it touches the psp....

Sorry if I offended anyone by what I said about sticker swapping.

OK so check this out

Its a quote from Dark Alex himself and the link is there too.

"Cool. Of course, beyond 2.75 and 2.8+ is Da Big F-W 3-Oh, and on that Alex had this to say: "No matter how difficult (to crack) they (Sony) make it, it's just code that can be decompiled. They cannot make magic, their archives must decrypt somehow, and that way is somewhere in their code."

here's the link http://pspupdates.qj.net/index.php?pg=49&aid=73258


Here is an Official Sony update talking about its new code: http://pspupdates.qj.net/index.php?pg=49&aid=7671


Here is another about hackers finding loopholes in Sony's code: http://pspupdates.qj.net/index.php?pg=49&aid=6884


and you don't have to say mean thing like "go ahead, be the devil's advocate.......pride is the beginning of all suffering"

and you have a nice day too.
