Ok, I have been speaking to dr1ver about my FW and he said that it is only dodgy the way im doing it (sending flash files over internet) and I cannot compile an update EBOOT due to not being to able to use a compiler my dad has as it is not that good and it only lets you do hello world apps. if someone could give me instructions on how to compile this update EBOOT on his CSP development studio then I would appreiciate it immensly. whoever helps me first will have their name put on the credits of the FW.

dude please stop with the cfw idea you have nothing.

it doesnt matter if you compile the prx files its still illegeal because you still have them in the eboot.

i will now explain (as best i can) who cfw is made and how its exicuted.

now to start with any cfw you will need to find a way of dumping the fw to a storage device that you can read.

when they found that 1.50 was able to be exploited to run home written code DAX came out with a program that tricked the sony update into installing onto the memory stick and not to the flash0

now that they had the dumped files they could work on decrypting them and modifying them to make newer fw compatable with homebrew. now they never had to send any of these files out because they had the program that could dump the files so all they needed to do is send that and as its DAX's code he had full writes to it.

once they had finished decrypting and modifying the code they needed to find a way of doing it on the psp with the ofw eboots. so a program was written on the psp where the ofw updates where decrypted and modified on the psp. this meant that the only file that needed to be sent was the homewritten program which has full writes by the programmer.

you on the other had have files ready decypted and then you have modified them so you are at the moment by sending the files breaching copywrite of sony and Team m33 (or GEN if its 3.95GEN)

now if you were to write a program that decrypted the prx and then modified them then thats a different matter you would be able to send that program out.

this is why GEN have be able to do it because they did not steal any of DAX's code (as far as i know) and they produced a decrypter for 3.95 which was theres and not DAX's PSAR this meant that they could modify it and send it out to make cfw on people psp.

so unless you know C++ and have CYGWIN installed you have nothing

so please drop it and just help people with there problems you seem to know some good stuff and that psp grader is a good find and will try it myself one day and link people to it.

Edit: forgot to put this in - http://alek.dark-alex.org/pspwiki/index.php/Custom_Firmwares

that is a short bit about CFW but has information about what the different cfw did and had

kl

soz if iv crushed a dream but the worlds a harsh place

if you enjoy computers, psp..... then mabe you should look into programming

thats what im doing at the mo im studing computing for A-level and i am going to go on to university to study computer secince

but the psp is harder to code for than windows as it requires code to make the thing boot before you can start writting your program.

also CYGWIN is unix and does not have a gui like windows or mac

not really ... the word dump means to "dump" data. In a update eboot, there is a file called Data.PSAR. It contains all the flash files. If, you dont know how to hex edit, I have no clue how u are going to make a update eboot ...
