hi there peeps i have a psp moel number 1002, the software version is 1.52
now i ive read a few sites about models number 1001 and versions 1.0 and 1.5 how they can do a whole lot more then than the one i described to you which i have.
what im really asking is "should i bother to continue holding onto my psp", cos i've read several web sites that psp model 1001 update allows you to view not just jpeg but also .bmp .gif and .png
i think i also read that it can play other movie formats apart from just mp4 i think i saw it can also play divX movies.
i also read that psp's with software version 1.0 and 1.5 and play rom games, while version 1.51 and 1.52 cant.
so im just wondering is ther gonna be updates for the type of PSP i have and if there is can someone please gimme a link to it please, cos im not sure if i should bother to hold onto my psp if it's potential can only stem to to only viewing one type of picture format and only one movie format, and it annoys me to hear that other versions and models can play rom games and do other cool stuff while it appeasrs to me that the the one i have cant do crap all.
can you please gimme your opinions on waht i should do, it would be much apprciated.
btw i bought my PSP in Western Australia (Perth) just in case you's wanted to know waht part of the world i got mine from.
ok i hope to hear back soon. ^^
damn the rars

It has nothing to do with model number, but firmware. You can run homebrew such as emulators on 1.0 and 1.5 but not 1.51 or greater. These improvements you're talking about come with firmware 2.0. You can play AVC codec movies in addition to mp4, but not DivX. It also supports other image formats than jpg. There is yet no way to downgrade your firmware to 1.5 or 1.0, but team wab is working for a downgrader which is released as soon as it is ready, so don't bother asking when it comes. Until then all you can do is just wait and see what is coming. Hope this answers your questions, but doesn't then just ask more ;)

hey thanks ichijoe, i read the link yu gave me, and it kinda makes me sad and want to jump on my psp. wel considering waht i read, if these groups are nuffin but a scam who really dont know waht their doing, then i sopose if its imossible to downgrade vfirmware version 2 to lower then i guess its impossible to downgrade mine as well.
also yuh i open up my system information in my psp and is says
MAC Adress 00:01:4A:91:7E:F6
system software Version 1.52
so yuh i guess its impossible as of now even to downgrade my version to 1.0 or 1.5 huh.
do you think i should just sell mine and look for a psp which has system software 1.0 or 1.5 at least that way i could play the rom games huh, cos im saving up to go to Barley, and mebbe considering getting one from there, what do you think of this idea, lemme know please
damn the rars

Ok, so u wanna know what i know and where i am in this fucking project?
im gonna try to explain u a little bit but i can't give u all the informations
as some lamerz try to get WAB Brains as they dont have one...
I publish those informations as with them u can't do anything exvcept trying
to work on a Downgrader with more clues then now...

As I explained in my article I didnt want to go into too much detail for the sake of the readers, just get to the point. Speaking of getting to the point - you seem to have completely missed it! Instead of actually properly responding to my article you just spout random bits of information which are not really even relevant in an attempt to make yourself look leet. It might work for some, but not me Why didnt you tell us how you plan to modify either the PRX or PSAR file and then re-encrypt so it will run on a 1.51+ PSP? Thats what you need to do but thats what you will NEVER manage to accomplish
Let me point a few things out for you, Yoshi. Without some sort of exploit a 1.51+ PSP will ONLY run properly signed and encrypted code. ONLY Sony can properly sign and encrypt data and you will never be able to do this. So I fail to see why you are so optimistic, since without being able to run unsigned code you will never have a working downgrader. Even if an exploit is found it will quickly be fixed so the battle really cannot be won until such time as a hardware mod appears.

Oh yeah, and some pointless firmware version changer. Wow, you guys rule! What about your V3 ISO loader? Oh, what about your DOWNGRADER?
Its funny to see what WAB thinks that they have done more than the guys at ps2dev.org - the real heroes who are responsible for the birth of PSP homebrew and all the open source libraries and code which WAB uses in their tools. Also lets not forget about the people behind the REAL ISO loaders who all bet WAB to it Open your eyes WAB, you guys havent done shit except cause drama, spread lies and rob poor unsuspecting people of their money.

The fact remains - a downgrader will NOT be possible the way WAB are trying to do it. They are going about it the wrong way. It might never be possible at all, for all we know.. its hard to say since so far nobody has been able to get a dump of the 2.0 kernel so we dont know if there are any exploits. The best and possibly only solution will be a hardware mod.. I for one am crossing my fingers that we will see something like this soon. One last thing - considering WAB didnt even have the skills to get an ISO loader working do you really think they will be able to achieve a working downgrader which is much more challenging? Seriously people, direct your hope elsewhere since you arent going to see anything from WAB.

I'm not hoping anything, I'm just reporting what I read. You can't know if they will release a working downgrader, only time will show. But personally I don't give a shit if downgrader is never made, by hardware or software. I bought my psp in february, so I have v1.0. And that version changer does help, you can bypass forced upgrades.

I dont undersstnd why you would want to upgrade ur psp to version 2.00 after hearing about all of this.
I got my hopes up and look at what happened NO DOWNGRADER. I should of never updated my psp to version 2.00 of the firmware!

It all depends on what you have / had... I have / had / will soon have again a PSP 1.52 (I got mine though a Postal Catalog Service. Had to send it back 'couse of a Dud Memstick & a few Dead / Stuck Pixles. I hope to see it's return soon thoough.
If you had a 1.0 / 1.5, then I feel for you! LEt that be a lession to let others be the from now on! As for the rest of us with 1.5x, there is no further reasion to hold out hope for WAB. As WAB are only holding out for a new Hexpl0te which will be in nature a 2.0 Hexpl0te, from the start.
It's a case of the V3 ISO Loader, all over again!!

in reply to pspfreak, yes i sopose you do have a point, the only reason i considered mebbe to go to firmware version 2 was cos of the ability to view more pics, watch more movie types, set background desktops on it and also i think i read with verson 2 you can go on the net with it, feel free to correct me if im wrong on certain things here
but yuh that was my decision, i only thought about going to version 2 cos if i cant downgrade i thought i'd just go to higher version, yes i know if i do this i wont be able to play rom games and such, but to me i'm like uh well cant play rom games on PSP no biggy, if i wanna play rom games i'll just play em on my pc, sorry if thats disappoint you, i just dont wanna get overcarried away with all these mods, hacks whatever you guys wanna call all this great stuff. so thats why i thought i'd just go to version 2 cos i cant downgrade and if theres no downgrader right now i don wanna be waiting 4 who know how long or even chance the possibility that there never will be one.
lemme know your thoughts on my decission guiys, i would like to know waht you think of my decission

Again I wouldn't sweat it! Team WAB - TEAM PSP-DEV are full of Sh*t with there Downgrader. Perhaps they might prove all the neigh sayers wrong. For what it's worth I sincerely hope that the do! The facts (as they are), however speak for themselvs.
There is however som progress beeing made in discovering Buffer Overflows which can possibly be hexpl01ted. Right now there are a small Handfull of 'em. The big trick here is to turn such Buffer Overflows into Hexpl01ts, and doing that is a bit like a Blind Man playing Darts' and having spun Him 'round about Five or Six times. To call this kind of work a 'Hit or Miss', is an understatement!
But, make no mistake about it if there's any real hope for 1.5x~2.0 Users out there it will come from this source and not from Team WAB & Co.
Given when such a Hexpl01t becomes avalible (perhaps in a Month or Two!), Team WAB & Co. will post something on there Website In there V3 Iso Loader Mode. "Well thx fot hte zport and F*CK hte neyzayerz but, with the new Hexplots recentie relezed it, means that are Downgrader is no longer neded."
Well that's how I see the furture of WAB anyhow!!
Note all proper usese of the Letter 'S' were replaced with a 'Z' where noted!!

well, i din quite understand all that but waht i'll do is like you sid, even if there is no downgrader but mebbe possible in several months or so, if there is some way of playing rom games on and such or later versions of psp, the i sopose ill just have to wait a month or 2, then ill just come back then and ask around and see if anything has been brought out for those versions.
so is that ok with you
and yuh i wont bother going to wab or the other mob mentioned if you guys say there bad. ill just wait then
sound good to you leeme know

leiongod I suppose ur right. Personally I'm tired of hearing about all of this downgrader crap. I'm tired of having shit throwing to us, making us believe that a downgrader will come soon. If u ask me there will never be a downgrader. End of discussion!
I just want to enjoy version 2.00 of the firmware. The way sony meant the psp to be. I think that upgrading is a good idea. You get a lot of cool stuff and best of all its free. I don't want to waste my time nemore with having to access the internet through wipeout pure. I find that there are way to many steps to just being able to surf the net.
I like version 2.00 and im going to stick with it. Now sorry guys If im offending anyone here but hacking is a waste of time. I would much rather access the browser with one simple click, instead of going through the process of using the wipeout pure browser.
Wab and other so called downgrader teams will never find a downgrader back to version 1.50 and under.

Well as Mr. A so eloquently put it "Yoshi couldn't hack His way out of a wet Paper Bag!", and He's correct! WAB are just playing for more time! Time till someone else can locate an Hexplo1t in the 2.0 Firmware that will allow us all to play Homebrew on our PSP's.
I can't say if it's true and I don't know who it is. But, rummor has it that a PSP Modchip should be on the way before Christmass I'm hopeing this turns out to be true! But, I guess we'll have to wait and see. =(

Got this from pspupdates.com:
Quote:
PSP-Dev Announces Downgrader Canceled
PSP-Dev has posted the below message on their website, stating that the downgrader project has been canceled without success. PSP-Dev seems to imply that a degrading relationship between PSP-Dev and Wab was responsible for the cancelation. No word from Wab yet on if they are canceling the project on their end or not. Here is what PSP-Dev had to say:
We want to announce that the colaboration between the two groups has been completly finished without success. We also want to announce that WAB has been disolved. The relatioship between the two groups were vanishing days ago (some of our members were banned from their server) and there is no progress with the colaboration.
In addition, the downgrader project (never finished) is immediatelly cancelled (it is not an excuse, we can't explain our reasons, but are enough to do this).
Time for meditation...
Yoshihiro and WAB, we really hope you guys can redeem yourselves and come through with a downgrader for all of the users who so willingly contributed to you.
There you have it :D It's all on wab now, we'll see how long it takes until they reveal that they can't complete it. Or they just continue their show until people loses faith in them. And then they just say something like "we'rez goingz toz finishz thatz downgraderz, fuckz youz lamerz, wab r00lz j00 azz", plz donnate" :p

Sorry arcanix I can't and my slur was ment for Team WAB I know that the overly English 'Net has Netizens from all over the globe and I was not insulting any non-native speakers. It's just WAB's brand of Engrish and 1337 5p334k that I was immatting.
You on the other hand Sir DO NOT Buttcher the English Languge!!
