Listed in: Firmware, News Tags: psp firmware

Sony Computer Entertainment Japan has announced the version 2.70 system software update for Japanese PSP (Model PSP-1000). This update is slated for 14:00, April 25, GMT+9:00 (1:00AM, April 25, EDT). Here are the details of this update:

[Network]

[Internet Browser] now supports Macromedia Flash contents playback.
*You need to enable the Flash contents playback in the [System Settings].
*The version of the flash player is Macromedia Flash Player 6 (a part of the functions is not supported).
The settings of the [Internet Browser] is added into [Settings] -> [Connection Settings]
The audio contents from channels in the [RSS Channel] section now can be saved into your memory stick.
[Auto] option added to [Rate Change] in [Location Free Player].
*More about the Location Free base station can be found [here].

[Music]

Added file extension to playable AAC format.

[Settings]

Added [Enable Flash Player] in [System Settings].

[Others]

Fixed some issues when using a memory stick with more than 2GB free space.
*This problem has not happened among the memory sticks sold in Japan until April 24.

So, there you got it. And please note that the old warning is still there:

"CAUTION: This update is only for customers who obtained PSPÂ® (PlayStationÂ®Portable) for Japan (PSP-1000 series). Upon completion of preparing, we will announce update information for the other countries/areas customers via SCE Group Web Site or other channels . For these customers who obtained PSPÂ® in the other countries/areas, please DO NOT update PSPÂ® through this web site. There are no guarantee of proper operation of the other PSPÂ®."

You won't void your warranty, but it's not cool to do so in Sony's opinion. ;-)

Thanks for the email heads-up, Kynadr!

This story sucks? This story rocks!

I own a 1.5 PSP, but I hope a new Exploit or possibility for full homebrew support will be found in version 2.7. Maybe also with downgradepossib ility!!! Not for playing copies, but everyone should have the fun with full homebrew support and enjoy all the cool programs. Thanks to all coders that make cool homebrew!!! But this time it seems the update brings also some cool new features (flash) and is not only a security update with some small "bonus-features". People, enjoy the update or enjoy staying with 1.5 or 2.0

# noooo — Guest 2006-04-24 00:00

when does europe get itXDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDD

# GTA EXPLOIT — RizenKaos 2006-04-24 00:05

The only way the gta exploit can be blocked is if Rockstar recalls your game and sends you back an updated virsion, and I don't think they'll be doing that any time soon!

# w00t — Guest 2006-04-24 00:06

Well, I've got my black 1.50 PSP and my white 2.60 PSP. I can both upgrade and keep homebrew! w00t!

# not upgrading — Guest 2006-04-24 00:08

I wont upgrade unless someone comes up with a downgrader that will work with it.

could be what all us 2.6 users have been waiting for

# Download Linkies — Guest 2006-04-24 00:08

Its out, well...Im pretty sure it is, all i can see is...

システムソフトウェアバージョン 2.70のアップデート

# better — Guest 2006-04-24 00:09

THIS BETTER WORK FOR U.S. PSP'S OR I WILL KILL SONY

# GTA Exploit — Guest 2006-04-24 00:09

I'm wondering, that Sony don't say Rockstar that they have to make such an update without exploit. Sony is sick!!! I think many people buy GTA only to play homebrew

But maybe have Fanjita and Ditlew to make some changes that the GTA exploit also works on 2.7 because of changed syscalls...

# Flash — Guest 2006-04-24 00:19

Is it just me or is flash 6 really old and *****ty. I bet only movies work too. What about running flash games from the memory stick. Like save it as a webpage?

# To #9 — Ninkul 2006-04-24 00:20

Thats not true, Sony can block certain things in their firmware since each UMD game has their own little signiature thingymabob in the disc. It would recognise the game and patch up a hole that bounces back the exploit not modifying the game itself or anything.

# #12, don't mess with it. — Guest 2006-04-24 00:21

The text says 2.70 will be released on Apr. 25, now if you download with that link, it's still 2.60.

# Not Upgrading — Guest 2006-04-24 00:21

The only reason i Upgraded to 2.6 was because it allowed WMA playback, considering over 75% of my collection is in this format it was worthy to update the PSP for, but for this, nothing is there that i want, no reason for me to upgrade.

# Drool... — Guest 2006-04-24 00:32

Mmmm flash support and i REALLY ... REALLY hope the Browser is well... alot FASTER aswell and i hope they managed to tweak the webpage memory...

but yeh drool...2.7 is a wayyyy cooler looking number than 2.6

# DON'T UPGRADE — Guest 2006-04-24 00:38

1. all things in updates have homebrew alternatives that are better.

2. we can enjoy homebrew games and apps on our 1.5 - 2.6.

DON'T UPGRADE!!! There is already a SWF player and it worked on my 2.5

# Podcasts! — armada 2006-04-24 00:41

aac support; finally podcasts on psp!!!

# RE: #16 — RizenKaos 2006-04-24 00:41

WHILE PUT INTO MY OWN WORDS, IT WAS FANJITA THAT SAID THAT AND IF ANYONE KNOWS ABOUT THE GTA EXPOLIT IT'S HIM!

# @23,16,9 — ditlew_psp 2006-04-24 00:44

The gta-exploit IS blockable, tomorrow we will see if they blocked it.

// Ditlew

# ... — Darkatomz 2006-04-24 00:47

not worth updating for me.

# wait for test — Guest 2006-04-24 00:52

we most wait for someone to update a let us know if the eloader work on 2.70

# Woo! — Guest 2006-04-24 00:53

AWESOME! I cant wait for flash!

# omg — Guest 2006-04-24 00:54

ok i have a usa psp i think 1001 right so i rick it all and put the 2.70 in update game folder and it worked fine!! will post a pic soon

# now — Guest 2006-04-24 00:55

can i update now

# question for u all — Guest 2006-04-24 01:09

so flash can let you watch videos..what??? on the internet and play games on the internet while on the internet on your psp...tell me plz

# Cool Flash — Alien18 2006-04-24 01:11

I hope there are some PSP websites made now with flash games on. The only trouble i forsee is mapping the PSP button presses so that the flash player recognises them. It'll be a shame that we probably wont be able to play most flash games that are already out on the WWW.

# Yes — Destructo 2006-04-24 01:15

#31: Yes, it lets you access flash websites, and play/watch the games/movies.

# Flashy Update — Guest 2006-04-24 01:17

Nice, I can't wait to go and watch some Homestar on my PSP. It's about time Flash was available, what the hell took so damned long?

# Hmmmm...video — Alien18 2006-04-24 01:18

IF (I know it's a very big IF) the GTA Cheatdevice can be made to work on 2.7 perhaps a new feature could be added. The option to output the Video Recorder to and swf file. It might be a way to get around the 10 video limit in the web browser. (Anyone who follows the CheatDevice will hopefulyl know what I'm trying to say - lol)

# KEKEKEKE ;V — Guest 2006-04-24 01:23

it will blow up your PSP when usin teh Eloader D: D: D:

# Sweet — Guest 2006-04-24 01:23

Cool now i will have

1 PSP Version 1.0

1 PSP Version 1.5

1 PSP Version 2.7

# Hmmmm.... — Illegal Machine 2006-04-24 01:24

I dunno about this... Seems like kind of a half-assed update here.

Flash support was a must tho.. I hope some devs update and crack it like a macadamia nut

# Not 2.7 — Guest 2006-04-24 01:26

As some people said as comment, the 2.7 is not downloadable yet, even though some fat bastard said "ok i have a usa psp i think 1001 right so i rick it all and put the 2.70 in update game folder and it worked fine!! will post a pic soon"

I just tried it so..., probably have to wait until tomorrow then :)

# yep — Guest 2006-04-24 01:29

Yea clearly stands on the homepage :

Start of update of system software version 2.70 is 2006 April 25th (the fire).

Version of the system software which presently can be downloaded is 2.60.

# YES — Guest 2006-04-24 01:30

YES now having a Japanise PSP is paying off

# damn.. — Guest 2006-04-24 01:34

psp3d.com says they confirm that gta hack is gone..im stickin wit 2.6

# no — Guest 2006-04-24 01:41

i'm in aus.....wen i do network update it comes up with version 2.7

also this version has new syscalls coz i emailed sony n they already replied....they sed aus will have 2.7 in the nxt week with new syscalls as savegame security

# 2.70 - 2.60 — insa8ne2k4 2006-04-24 01:41

sounds fantastic! but i think ill stay with 2.60

thanks 4 the update #42

# The fire? — Guest 2006-04-24 01:47

why did sony call it 'the fire' ?

# MORE CACHE? — Guest 2006-04-24 01:48

I wonder if this means that the browser's cache issues will be fixed? If not, how well is FLASH really going to work with such a limited amount of cache available???

# Dont do it! — Guest 2006-04-24 01:49

If you enjoy your homebrew dont do it! for what?? flash player? oooooo WOW!

you can get a Homebrew flsh player anyway!! works a treat!

Im sticking with my 1.5, i will NEVER upgrade, i'd rather buy a new psp than lose all the benefits to a 1.0 or 1.5.

But each to their own..

# does this work under 2.60 ? — Guest 2006-04-24 01:51

# OMG yay!!!!!1 — Guest 2006-04-24 02:10

Yesssssss.... SONY YOU RAWK!!!!!

I am so happy to READ THIS!!!

I am soooooooo gonna upgrade my FW 1.50 for this one :)

Flash is teh l33t!

Too bad I like 1.50 and ISOs/full homebrew/etc... but Flash rules all of those!!

I highly suggest EVERYONE on 1.50 to Upgrade to 2.70!!!

Forget about ISOs..... we got FLASH! :) :) :)

Thnx sony, u made me a legit 2.70 user :)

Goodbye 1.50

# ba — Guest 2006-04-24 02:12

psp3d are a bunch of dumbasses.. they talk about a 2gb cap when it's 4... they're mad stupid unreliable pieces of *****

# GTA Exploit is lame!! — Guest 2006-04-24 02:16

I don't care about this lame GTA exploit. It is lame, relies on having a specific UMD, there is no kernel access, you have to wait for the save game to load, many homebrew will never work and it will never be as stable as a 2.0 or 1.5. If I only had access to any of the higher firmware Psp's only I would do what I could to sell it and get a new 1.5 from Ebay or one of those online stores. Firmware 2.7 is just designed to block the GTA exploit to eradicate all possibilities of homebrew forever. I think anyone thinking of updating should do so because if they are stupid enough to do it that is one less moron clogging up the forums asking for 2.6 downgraders.

# flash — Guest 2006-04-24 02:19

so if i ugade to 2.7 i coud view movies on the interner{youtub e etc} please respond im a little slw with this tech stuff :<

# Stupid — Guest 2006-04-24 02:22

Stupid Anonymous Coward

# yes — Guest 2006-04-24 02:27

you are alittle slow

# Yawn... — Sturmeh 2006-04-24 02:28

Unless there is unrestricted kernal access, with the full ability to downgrade. YAWN its another yawn update...

I belive flash will be the most exploitable point, but i also assume sony would have created what they call a "limited" access.

In reality, u could start making "flash homebrew" and piss off all the 1.50 users lol.

What i want is to try emulate 2.70 but i doubt its gunna happen!

W/e

# there is flash emulators — Guest 2006-04-24 02:34

there's a website out that lets you play snes/genesis/nes/mastersystem games ONLINE with flash.

# to 61 — Guest 2006-04-24 02:37

What is that site?

# yeah — Guest 2006-04-24 02:42

i'm gonna upgrdade then i can play free downloadeble demos on mine psp!! (just the same as homebrew)

I can't whait until the next downloads on 2.7

does anybody knows when it com out for 1004 psp?

# flash emulator site — Guest 2006-04-24 02:44

i'll list the website when the update comes out for the u.s psp :-P so then i'm not missing out

# homebrew — Guest 2006-04-24 02:47

maybe can fanjita or somebody else hack the same buffer that works with the downloadable demos

# downloadable demo's? — Guest 2006-04-24 02:48

where are the downloadable demo's at?

# am i missing something??? — killermoose5 2006-04-24 02:54

errr is it me or does having the ability to view movies on your psp via internet websites a really good thing,a good enough reason to upgrade but then again this is coming from someone who sold gta and can no longer participate in the homebrew community...anyway like the guy said above,is it possible to look at movies from you tube and google video etc ??? if so you guys should be happy as hell

# aac...and flash!finally — Guest 2006-04-24 02:55

if they could make it play aac protected so u could get music off itunes it would be so much better so then i wouldnt have to go through burning and ripping all of my music from itunes into mp3 for my xbox 360,psp,ipod.

# aaaaaa — Guest 2006-04-24 02:56

i think you should be able to look at newgrounds, google and youtube because they use flash. Unless they are too big for the cache you shuld be able to watch them, but I am not shure.

# 2.70 here i come! — Guest 2006-04-24 02:59

Im definitely gonna be upgrading my 1.50.... Flash is sooo cool! Too bad, I loved all the free iso games, but having Flash is just *too* cool.

buh-bye 1.50!

For those who said:

>Forget about ISOs..... we got FLASH! :) :) :)

Read a little closer- some Functions of Flash are not supported! I'm curious what is left out, mp3 audio? collision detections? action script?

Plus it is Flash 6, an older version of the player.

# The fire? — Guest 2006-04-24 03:32

Sorry, but that's what you get for using itunes.

I have a psp1000, but I'll wait and see I think. Flash would be exciting for about 15 minutes. I have wireless in my house, but then my pc's in my house and it's easier to use for web browsing and isn't limited like a psp. I suppose if you could save flash games it might be interesting, but even then..

# It's bad enough I have a 2.6 — The_Skizzy 2006-04-24 04:24

I didn't even upgrade this one. I just got skrood because I got a PSP before I even knew it could do homebrew... so of course the one I got was a 2.00...

Lets all at least show some respect to Fanjits and Ditlew by waiting for their go-ahead... it's bad enough they have to fix this thing for us all the time, lets not give them more work... and if you do upgrade and the GTA exploit doesn't work, *don't* give the grief. They didn't force you to upgrade.

# Dissapointing — Guest 2006-04-24 04:25

# Flash on a PSP isnt going to be all great — Guest 2006-04-24 04:27

Think about it flash requires so many updates how it is going to handle that?

How is the PSP going to support the controls?

I no it sounds like the greatest think to happen to a PSP but as with the Internet browser you find yourself getting very tired within a week and then just going back to your PC.

I just think that all the people who are getting very excited should step back wait until we no whats what and then upgrade if its anygood. 2.7 might not support homebrew,

What good is a PSP without homebrew you might as just carry a laptop around if you want Flash support.

Hopefully Sony can pull it off and surprize everybody but sadly I dont think thats going to be the case here.

Roll on the next upgrade

# 1.5 for 2.5 psp and plus much more... — Guest 2006-04-24 04:45

Those people who have said they would upgrade there 1.5 when 2.7 come out are a bit odd. Anyways i would like to trade my 2.5 psp with 2gig, 3 games and accessories. And all i want is the 1.5 psp core system. So those of you who want to upgrade to 2.7 from 1.5 can get a bargain of me. I'm giving away over £300 worth, just for 1.5. If you wanna do it, e-mail me at:

# You can use this on your PSP. — Guest 2006-04-24 04:46

I've had my PSP since day 1. I have also, other than 1.51, applied every update since realease in the Japanase version. There is zero difference from what they release to them as to what they release to us. If anything is wrong at all with this release they will put 2.71 out to the US. You can even call Sony and talk to them and they will tell you it is the same damn thing. They just put the notice out there becuase it is mean for Japan (my guess is to hold off on globabl release until any issues have had a chance to be discovered). Don't fear the Japanese updates. Man, everyone used to know this here. Has it been that long since the last update?

# Translation — Destructo 2006-04-24 04:46

Release of system update version 2.70 is April 25th of 2006 (Tuesday), 14:00.

of course it aint gonna support any homebrew but thats why it has flash

# Hello . . . — Guest 2006-04-24 05:07

Remember, this upgrade allows for the employment of demos and games booted from the memory stick . . .

Exploits? What? Huh?

Yes, everyone that's been around for awhile (including myself) know that the updates are not regional and will work on any PSP. It's mentioned in the article but thanks for reminding the masses.

At the time of writing this comment, it is 1AM in Tokyo... 13 hours and counting...

# DEFNITELY UPGRADE!! — Guest 2006-04-24 05:10

Definitely upgrade EVERYONE!!!

1.50 is useless anyways nowadays, ALL new games coming out will be 2.70!

2.70 is defnitely the way to go people..... all homebrew will soon be written exclusively for 2.70!

Just ask fanjita!

Flash.. wmv... rss... THIS is the *****

Who really cares about old ISOs anyway huh...

2.70 people! NOW!! UPGRADE!!!!!!!! !

# I'm upgrading — Guest 2006-04-24 05:11

I'm upgrading. Homebrew's getting boring. Bye bye homebrew.

# yep... bye bye 1.50! — Guest 2006-04-24 05:13

2.70 is 1000000000 times better then 1.50

everyone who stays below 2.0 has NO clue what he's missing!

just look at 2.60 is has very cool homebrew stuff now, EVEN WIFI!!

forget about 1.50... GO 2.70 :)

Congrats Sony, you have my full support!

I will always buy UMDs and I will help people update to 2.70! Keep it up SOny! YOU RAWK!!!!

# i'm upgrading too — Guest 2006-04-24 05:16

It doesn't really matter. It'll be online anyway, just dl it and usb it across. I'm guessing you won't be able to though, since your isp's uk.

# yes — Guest 2006-04-24 05:46

i like porn

# not upgrading yet!!! — Guest 2006-04-24 05:49

i choose not to upgrade just yet. not intil sony release's a ps1 emulator. and even when it comes out if it isnt what i want i wont upgrade. who cares flash sucks. only way i will ever consider using flash is if there a is app for 1.5 that allows it. and for those who are saying the new games that u cant play on 1.5 are wrong. if u havent noticed most games work on 1.5 . except for smackdown vs raw (slow loading times*, and splinter cell. i dont think any other games dont work yet...... for me i only use the psp for videos and music and some homebrew games and app's.

# you bunch of NUMPTY's — Guest 2006-04-24 05:57

of course they're going to block homebrew!!!

they always do!!

thats what they did when they went to 1.5, then someone found a way round it,

then they blocked it again at 2.0 then came the tif exploit,

then they blocked that at 2.01 etc etc,

it just gets harder and harder to bypass sony security

# googlevideo — Guest 2006-04-24 05:57

some people really write stupid comments here #132. Anyway can anyone confirm if google video works with flash 6

# Flash Portals — Destructo 2006-04-24 06:05

We could get some nice flash portals maybe

# you lot must be stupid! — Guest 2006-04-24 06:11

Dont just go out and upgrade, just wait til its actually out

and the feedback comes in, yes they'll pretty much block home brew, Thats Guaranteed!

I dont see any benefit to upgrading to this,

Yes i want FLASH player,

but i dont want some cut down out of date version, that i can only get by sacrifising homebrew, any way someone is developing a homebrew version of flash player, just checkout the files link up near the top right of this page!

Sony must love you gullable types, your so sad.

# Hmmm... — Guest 2006-04-24 06:18

The only thing that would make me update at this point would be PROPER FLASH GAME SUPPORT. *hint hint*

SONY, you want me to update, give me a more current version of Flash. With some form of button mapping.

# azam_92 2006-04-24 06:39

if the download is already available then why has nobody updated and reported if it worked or not?

anyways im gonna update as soon as it's available by network update cos it's much safer.

# Sony = GOD — Guest 2006-04-24 06:43

I will ALWAYS love and support Sony financially!

I will NEVER pirate ISOs because it makes Sony unhappy :(

I suggest we all start LOVING sony, and hand them ALL of our money. Lets ALL start buying more UMDs..

# #139 — Guest 2006-04-24 06:45

It might have something to do with the fact that it hasn't been released yet.

# EVERYONE!!!!!!! !!!!!! — Guest 2006-04-24 06:52

(bunch of f'ing morons)

# Sony employees — Guest 2006-04-24 07:01

Anyone else pissed off at the number of posts from Sony employees with their lame fanboy "Upgrade, you'll never regret it!" comments?!?

Anyone with a brain will wait a while to see how good the upgrade is, and then decide if the tradeoff is worth it.

# hmm — Guest 2006-04-24 07:02

Why are people saying that they updated and it worked if the update isn't out till tommorow?

# just a warning! — overflow.tiff 2006-04-24 07:07

i don't know what would happen if i updated my US PSP 1001

with a japanese update 2.70, but i will say i've done it with a japanese 2.0 update. i wasnt able to set my wireless router information, no wifi for me then. honestly, no joke!

you really should....

JUST WAIT TIL YOUR COUNTRY HAS THE PROPER UPDATE FOR THE MODEL YOUR PSP IS!

as usual, i'm sure it'll be plastered on QJ the day it arrives.

one more thing....will the exploit be patched somehow, in 2.70? any ideas? any answers? yes? no? ignore me?...proley the last one.

# Whine at sony Noobs — Guest 2006-04-24 07:35

Iv'e got a model psp-1000 from japan almost two years old now

but sony can suck my balls this is the worst way to win people back from not hacking and homebrew, they think all this new stuff ( not that they added much since the 3.00 news going around you think they would have dealt up something matching the fabled 3.00 features) i wont be upgrading my psp-1000 untill there is a working hack like on a\ll existing firmwares and there will not be one for a while as there still coding away for 2.6+ and bellow and thats not fully done yet, so i dont expect a hack for this new firmware untill well next year now because no one that wants homebrew now will upgrade because WERE not stupid SONY ! you hear US, and its not as if they can amke all there games not work on their consoles if we dont upgrade, coz that would just be the end of sony forever!

SO Stick with 1.50 up to 2.6+

Show sony that its the consumers that decide whats a good product not pen pushers in there posh head offices in JAP !

# Guest 2006-04-24 07:43

That all fine and dandy of an update but im not falling for this stupid trick again to keep me from homebrew! Im staying with 2.6!

You are onto me.... I have made several attempts to trick people into upgrading their beloved 1.50's to 2.70

Ofcourse, I only did that so my 1.50 would be worth more ;)

I have actually tricked a couple of people on other forums already.. LoL

I told them there was already a downgrader for 2.70 available and that I would e-mail it to them after they sucessfully upgraded to 2.70.... LoL

# ok — Guest 2006-04-24 09:27

ill stick to 2.0 so i can downgrade if I want I dont really care about the new games.

But if bf2:modern combat comes to psp.... I dont know what i will do then but for now no upgrade for me...... :)

i borrowed it from my friend JUST to play homebrew, but after i returned GTA to my friend, i erased ALL the homebrew from my psp...i have no use for homebrew...>_>

why are ppl depending just on GTA Exploit...there might be another Exploit in 2.7....and yet...we may never no....what the future might hold...

# Not Impressed.... — Guest 2006-04-24 09:42

That's it?! Honestly now, if you want a person to give up all their cool emulators, hombrew, etc., for a measly old flash player, you must be pretty high... I wonder if Sony executives have ever even tried a 1.5 PSP. Maybe their perspective of homebrew might change..... Totally not upgrading....

# Sony is a Joke. — Guest 2006-04-24 10:05

Why should I upgrade, pretty much every game out is pretty damn lame(most games aint even worth a D/L not to mention 50bucks). Daxter is the best game for PSP but yet the game is very short.

All my hidden feeling for Nintendo are coming back. Seems that the best portable console and the best games are Nintendo now.

I love Sony like but im finding the PSP so dissapointing.

Also the Browser for DS is going to piss all over the PSP's weak browser.

Best do something special before DSlites release

Good Luck

# Guest 2006-04-24 10:28

Flash 6 will not run google video OR youtube. Nor will it run on newgrounds.

They all require flash 7/8. Flash 6 isn't even fully supported in this update. It specifically says some calls are not implemented.

Don't get your hopes up. Those 'unimplemented calls' could very well be mp3 audio, action scripts, etc.

Not to mention that the PSP only has 16MB of ram max when the web browser is open. In other words, you will not be able to watch flash videos on your psp with this update. Or possibly with any update...

# why? — Guest 2006-04-24 10:35

wow! much better than near limitless posibilities of homebrew.

why not just wait till mph firmware loader can emulate 2.7 on a 1.5 psp? silly lol

also, homebrew coders were already creating a flash viewer, which works on 1.5...

you guys better not be expecting a downgrader anytime soon... unless a nice hole (unlikely) appears allowing everyone on 2.01 - 2.6 to update then downgrade back to 1.5!

I think i will stick with 1.00 :)

People that are encouraging to update are probably just one person. Some idiot thinks that since he upgraded his to 2.6 that everyone should suffer the same. Though, I could be wrong. I suggest not updating until there is a way to access homebrew or downgrade. Honsetly, 2.6 isnt really that bad. I have snes, nes, gbc, gba, sega, atari emulators and you can get all the roms off coolroms.com.

Well Please be advised this feedback is coming froma 14 year old PSPXMAG writer. I have read through all of these posts and noticed some of the critisism you guys have toward sony. Please be advised that maybe sony chose such a early version of flash is because the PSP system cant runa ny other higher version. With that being said flash support itself should hardly even work on the PSP considering the limited cache and ram of 16 mg the PSP uses on the browser. yes this might be an attempt to approve the system but even if it did work correctly, can you imagine the waiting times for a simple game? I dont know what else to say there is another update soon and it might be to early to say this but I'd advise no one upgrade till the next firmware.

Expect an article on this topic in PSPXMAG issue 008

# CHANGING FIRMWARES, UPGRADING AND DOWNGRADING. — xsouthpole 2006-04-24 12:59

THIS IS NO JOKE, I JUST FIGURED OUT HOW TO DOWNGRADE A 2.0+ PSP!!! It's simple, hook up a 1.5 psp to your computer. Go to control panel. Go to audio devices and find your psp. BY OPENING YOUR PSP THIS WAY, YOU GET ACCESS TO THE FLASH MEMORY. Do not delete your flash memory, rather copy it to your desktop. All of the firmware files (about 80 files). Then, get the psp you want to downgrade, and use the same control panel opening tactic, then replace all of the flash files with the ones you copied onto your pc!!!My friend showed me his psp and walked me through this processs. All you have to to do, is replace the internal files with a 1.5 psp. Hopefully soon, someone will leak their 1.5 psp's firmware files so everyone wanting to downgrade can replace thier old ones.

NOTE: If you replace the flash files, the name and theme and other stuff from the psp with fw 1.5, will be on the new 1.5 psp. And if anyone has 1.0, please upload it, my friend Devon wants to downgrade his 1.5 to 1.0. We are currently investigating which files alter each settings of the psp. We found that certain fw files affect if the web browser is on the psp. Once we find out which fw files mean which, we can work on constructing a CUSTOM FIRMWARE using mixed firmware 1.5 files and 2.6 files to create a 1.5 psp with all the good 2.6 features. It makes sence! so much sense, im workin on it now.

# upgrade — Guest 2006-04-24 12:59

im ganna upgrade, i know a few porns that have flash. and flash games are cool to. hey i got 2.6 incase your wondering.

# I JUST BRICKED MY PSP — Guest 2006-04-24 13:21

# downgrading update — xsouthpole 2006-04-24 13:22

yes it does. the flash controls the psp's system. so if you get someones flash files that has a 1.5 psp. Your psp has no choice but to be a...? 1.5 psp. its just logic. yeah, it works. i posted this to qj net, and they just ignored me. well, if they wanna ignore me, fine! I have already figured out how to upgrade downgrade psp easily, by just switching flashes. When i figure out what the firmware files do individually, i can remove some of off the 1.5 flash filesa and add some 2.6 ones to enable some of the 2.6 features. No1 steal my idea! t was my idea, i came up with it first. and if there are any non-believers, just do the control panel method. go to control panel, pick music players, find the psp on your drive. open it. blam, you got access to your flash firmware files. btw, can someone upload thier 1.0 flash files, cuz i don know any1 wit a 1.0, all my friends got is 2.0's and 1.5's. once someone releases that, hey, we can all replace our flash files with thiers, then of cource, change the nickname and stuff, ect. remember, when you do this, your psp's nickname will be the same as the ones yu got the files from. not that this is a bad thing, jus telling you. for more info, read comment 229. and plz qj, could you please post this as news, cuz this discover is huger than the new firmware... no, seriously, anyway, back to work on finding out what each file does! see ya!

# yet another firmware update — xsouthpole 2006-04-24 13:37

" It makes sence! so much sense "

how did that give anywhing away? it does make sence, all your doing is giving your psp 1.5 files , so your psp has no choice but to be a 1.5 psp. hey, im trying to help you guys, i could have kept this a secret and only did it for my friends and made a profit doing it on ebay. if you don;t believe me, fine! don't then, the only reason i said, " It makes sence! so much sense " is becuase i was speechless just to discover this, and if you want proof that you can use your flash files this way. Just do this,

Go to Control Panel

Pick audio devices

Once there, simply open your PSP

It will have a new folder, previously not seen the traditional way of opening it up. now, you don;t need the fileassistant. no offence on fileassistant, cuz that programs great

open the new firmware folder

copy your files onto the desktop

and uh, thats about it. I found out that the first firmware file "01" tells the psp what type of psp it is. japan, us ect. and to show that this is true, here is how i found out,

Using my psp, i replaced my first firmware file with a japan psp. i found a dumped japan psp on google. anywho, then i just made a copy of my first firmware file, for backup. put the japanese psp's file on mine. Then, i cut on my psp, it went to the blue screen and i had to enter a new nickname, time and crap, then, i looked at the main language it was set to, japan. nothing else about the psp had changed except it is now a japan psp. that is how i know that this particulat firmware file determines that factor

# xsouthpole — Guest 2006-04-24 13:39

" if there are any non-believers, just do the control panel method. go to control panel, pick music players, find the psp on your drive. "

There is no "music players" option under control panel (not in mine anyways)

# AS long as GTA loader works, I'm cool — Guest 2006-04-24 13:44

I when I bought my used PSP the guy that had it before me updateted the firmware to 2.6 so it was a pain in the ass because I bought it on christmas and there was no GTA loader, it was just a rpoject back then, So, as long as it works with the GTA loader I would upgrade, I don't care that much for a friggin' FlashPlayer 6

# ok, 252, direct instructions, and i thank 248 for pointing this out. — xsouthpole 2006-04-24 13:44

yes, 248 you are right, i made a slight miscalculation of language. you have to go to "portable" media devices. and here are some direct instructions for #252.

Visit control panel

Click Sounds, Speech, Audio Devices

Click Portable Media Devices.

There ya go for the n00b's who don't know anything about the control panel, yet love to flame people for discoverories. your psp should pop up under the directry. i WILL POST SCREENSHOTS IN A COUPLE OF MINIUTS. hol on

# WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT XSOUTHPOLE!?! — Guest 2006-04-24 13:52

# I can only get so far. — The_Skizzy 2006-04-24 14:01

Heya xsouthpole,

I'm not sure if it's the version of windows I have, or if I'm lacking an update, but in simple and classic mode, my souds etc... in the control panel does not list portable media devices. is there another way into it? I've tried showing hidden system folders etc... tried going in through the device manager, nothing. Is there a specific way to have the computer recognize the PSP? I tried reinstalling it etc... but there's not a darn thing. if more than one person can get this to work, you'll be an immortal. I hope you're on the right track... good luck, I'll keep trying your method as you update.

# I can only get so far. — The_Skizzy 2006-04-24 14:03

there's no portable media devices in my sounds etc in the control panel, I've tried searching for in in the device manager as well, not a darn thing... do I need to install the psp differently than auto recognition? maybe a windows update? I'll keep trying to get your method to work, but I'm at a standstill here... lemme know what ya got going... god knows you'll be an immortal in the PSP scene if this works.

thanks skizzy, uh, honestly i dont know what 267 are talking about. and 268 is flaming, the found.000 is part of the firmware files. alot of it determines the firmware features you have on your psp. browser, ect. can pspu please post a news article about this, because i don't want to hog this coment thing. and for 268 who said sandisk creates all that stuff, im not using a sandisk memory card duma$$. im using a 1GB Sony Brand MagicGate Memory Card. Its black. but i don't need to explain to you flamers. anywho, for those who are listeniong and supporting this, thanks, and uh, im giving anyone permission to follow up on the custom firmware idea. i will work on that too. but there are 60+ files that need to be identified. then we can start deleting the unessentials from 1.5, like security files, and add essentials from 2.6, web browser, rss, ect.

# Don't listen to him — Guest 2006-04-24 14:17

Um, xsouthpole, I find it hard to believe that a PSP's firmware would be stored ON the memory stick, or for that matter, being stored in a folder called "Found.000"

# to mr. flamer, arlac — xsouthpole 2006-04-24 14:17

yes, maybe other devices have this folder. but did you ever consider the fact that other devices have firmware's too? your freakin printer can have a firmware! infact mine does, it hardly gets updated by dell, but it has one. so stop flamen and use your brain. most usb devices have firmwares. and it is coming to my attention that this found.000 folder is'nt just the flash files, but maybe another folder i am overlooking may have something to do with it too. I don't know why dome people don't see the found.000 folder. but i really honestly don't know how to make this folder visible. ):

maybe it will work for some. and no, i am not using a high tech alienware computer. i am using a program called alienguise to make it look like an aleinware. so i'll look farther into this tommorro, but i'll stick around the comment board for a while longer to help you guys.

gee, i know how its on your local disk, you dumped your firmware and put it there. im not that dumb. and no, found.000 is not on the memory stick, this is flash memory. i realeased another screenshot, it shows where the psp eboot signature is, and the file that launches the psp called touch.exe, i don't know why of the funny names. and if you look in screenshot 4, you see a folder called utils, which is part of the flash memory. find a new screenshot here

# Looks like I need to update windows *sigh* — The_Skizzy 2006-04-24 14:24

welp, that's about as straight forward as you can get... a question though... is the found.000 folder on the memory card and hidden? or is that from the actual flashrom in the psp? just curios? Also, have you actually downgraded yet? or are you still tinkering with it? I'm all ready to downgrade once I get a confirmation fro a few reputable people.

yes, 298, you might be right,

i admit things when im wrong, and as my bud Devon has confirmed, those utils folder may have just come from the e-loader. this is not confirmed, but is a possiblility. here is a word from devon

Hello website, I know many of you have questions about this, and we can answer them. An easier way to put this so everyone can infact change thier psp firmware to thier will is to use the very popular file, FileAssistant. Thank you. This way, everyone can get to even more Flash files, disguised by the computer earlier. Dump your firmware, and make the same conversion as the Control Panel Exploit explained. This method has not been tested. Only the Control Panel Exploit has been by me. Thanks, and please do not try to accually change the firmware with the program FileAssistant. Just dump it with FileAssistant. Rewriting your firmware while the psp is already in the middle of an application can dismantle your device. We are not trying to harm anyones precious shiny device. We are attempting to get around the knicks and the knacks in this. I don't advise you to try this just yet. Untill me and Harvey test itt ourselfs, as we have plenty of PSP's to brick in the process of testing. Thank You.

ok thats it for him. yeah, so don't try it yet of you're iffy. we gon figure it out. we are just giving you some quick information on this project. aight.

# Sony Mafia — Guest 2006-04-24 15:45

The sony mafia just attacked me. I posted/quoted/linked to this story on the G.A.P. page and my story maybe lasted all of an hour before Sony pulled it. I guess they don't want their consumers to be aware of whats going on with their products. Whatever.

# WHY! — Guest 2006-04-24 16:30

MY BATTERYS LOW TO!!!:(

# why oh why — Guest 2006-04-24 17:30

frist off why would u want to update your psp pass 2.0

i have gta and was at 2.0 but once runumd came out with these loader for 1.5 i was back down there and will not touch this psp. why would i want my nice nice 1.5 all messed up from some holed filled firmware that sony comes to push out at people.

WOW they added a extra cappy option here and there. $ony needs to start giving this PSP a 2nd look maybe they can work within and get the PSP rolling with better stuff and more options they need to stop the limited firmware hole filled updates.

# overflow.tiff 2006-04-24 17:33

btw, i'm only upgrading because i want the PS1 emu that will come out later. so for now unfortunately, its bye bye homebrew for me. it really doesnt mean much to me at all! i'm no addict.

but once my battery is charged i'm sailing away from the eLoader! unless it possibly still works i'll post again if it does.

# yay! downloading it now! — Guest 2006-04-24 17:34

ok, for all you guys looking for the update off the websites, its not posted yet. but if you have a router, do the network update! i got it!!!!!

# LR — Guest 2006-04-24 17:49

Is there any way to get that Loco Roco demo without a USB Cable and just WiFi? Truth be told, this is one of the only reasons I'm even updating because:

A) I don't use homebrew

B) Flash 6 is so dated, the fact that Sony released it with only slight compatability is complete BS

C) There isn't really anything else in the update worth mentioning

# sorry guys but.... — overflow.tiff 2006-04-24 17:56

# 2.7 overall!!!!! — killermoose5 2006-04-24 18:16

well i just upgraded because of the AAC song format(i-tunes) but other than that there's the flash player. sadly,those who were looking forward to viewing movies on you tube will be dissapointed, as said above you need atleast flash player 7. ive been to newgrounds and some games work along with the flash animations but those were only small vids,ive been getting the "out of memory" ***** alot. if you wanted to upgrade to 2.7 due to flash player,i say you shouldnt stay where you are but if your like me and use i-tunes then i guess you will be pleased with the AAC format

# raped — Guest 2006-04-24 19:00

Sony just raped us all. "Out of Memory" on HomestarRunner. This blows. Next time include in big bright letters in the update screen:

"WE PATCHED ALL THE EXPLOITS, THEN ADDED A CRIPPLED FEATURE OR TWO. THANKS FOR PLAYING KIDDIES!!!

-Love, Sony"

That would prevent the mass killing of homebrew we have all witnessed here today.

I am, however, impressed that Flash is on the PSP at all, and am hopeful that people will develop small games and apps that take advantage of the new feature.

# out on japan site — Guest 2006-04-24 19:05

its out on the psp japan website now :) apprently some are sayin the US have it now, but only thru Network Update via psp, can anyone confirm that?

# mmmm — Guest 2006-04-24 19:05

BYE 2.6 ... I'LL MISS YOU!!!

# WARNING 1.5 USERS — Guest 2006-04-24 19:08

WARNING 1.5 USERS

I'M NOT FORCING ANY 1.5 USERS, BUT I AM SUGGESTING THAT 1.5 USERS DO NOT UPGRADE YET. THE FLASHPLAYER IS OLD AND WILL NOT SUPPORT MANY SITES.

REMEMEBER THERE ARE 2 MORE FIRMWARE UPDATES TO COME THIS YEAR. ONE COMING OUT THIS SUMMER HOLIDAYS, AND THE LAST ONE IS COMING OUT BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR.

I THINK THIS FIRMWARE IS JUST A TEST FOR SONY, SO THAT THEY CAN CHECK OUT HOW THE HOMBREW COMMUNITY CRACK THE 2.70. I THINK WE WILL GET THE LATEST FLASHPLAYER IN THE NEXT FIRMWARE OR THE AFTER.

THINK ABOUT IT, SONY IS PLAYING WITH US. THEY WANT US TO TRY TO EXPLOIT IT SO THEY CAN PATCH IT IN THE NEXT FIRMWARES WHICH WILL HAVE GPS, PSONE EMULATOR AND OF COURSE THE LATEST FLASHPLAYER.

FOR THOSE LUCKY 1.5 FIRMWARE PEOPLE, DONT UPGRADE YET. WE ARE LUCKY PEOPLE INDEED, MANY PEOEPLE ARE PAYING MUCH MUCH MORE FOR 1.5 PSP ON EBAY AND MANY OTHER WEBSITES.

AND FOR THE HOMBREW COMMUNITY, PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR SONY'S TRICK. PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO EXPLOIT THE 2.7 FIRMWARE YET. LETS WAIT FOR TWO MORE FIRMWARE WHICH WILL HAVE COMPLETE GAMES AND APPLICATIONS IN ITS CATEGORY.

MY LAST SAY IS THAT I HIGHLY RECOMMEND 1.5 USERS NOT TO UPGRADE THIS FIRMWARE, BY DOING THAT YOU WILL LET SONY WIN OVER ITS PAYING CUSTUMERS. KEEP HOMEBREW ALIVE, THATS WORTH FIGHTING FOR, SONY STILL HASN'T WON YET PEOPLE.

1.5 TO 2.6 PEOPLE, WE MUST STICK TOGETHER IF WE WANT HOMBREW TO LIVE FOREVER.

LONG LIVE 1.5, AND MAY GOD BLESS HER.

FROM PSP ANONYMOUS HOMBREW CREATER.

im sure there's nothing more fanjita and ditlew want to do than go out and make a new crack for 2.7 for people like you, oh except they have lives. the best thing about homebrew is not sitting around waiting for other people to do your work, its learning it yourself, which many people have done in support of homebrew. i think, and its nothing more than a thought, that devs or coders would call someone who "supports" them someone who worked their own arse off for homebrew.

# xsouthpole has no idea what he is saying — Guest 2006-05-10 06:18

xsouthpole, out f all stupid poeple in the world, you take the cake. First off, the firmware files of the PSP is stored in the flash. (the flash, is two chips in the motherboard of the PSP, flash0 and flash1)

The memory stick is a removable storage, and if the firmware was stored on the memory stick, how would the PSP operate when you take out the memory stick hm?

found.000 is a folder that appears when you disconnect the PSP with out using the "remove USB device safely" option, or otherwise lose files.

This so called "downgrade" will not work You moron.

Get your facts straight, take some schooling, and stop being a stupid douche.

Have a nice day.

I updated my PSP before i found this site T_T i hate 2.70 and want to get rid of it did anyone cracked it yet please email me at razielleonhart@ yahoo.com thanks

# @ #454 — Guest 2006-05-12 21:00

It's actually a single flash chip with dual partitions.

But I can confirm that found.000 IS a chkdisk folder created to prevent data loss. This is confirmed by my old Win3.11 machine that do contains the found.000 folder. It has never been connected to a PSP and that is proved cuz it's missing a f***ing USB port cuz it's from the early 90's. Period.

# youtube on psp — Guest 2006-05-16 14:11

I've got a version 2.6 and my psp won't support YouTube, anyway around this? being that youtube is pretty much the reason I maintain existance.

# dont download — Guest 2006-05-17 09:35

all of you dont download/install 2.7 bc then you cant just copy/paste mp4s in the right folder. if you do, then the video wont show up on the psp & if you do change the name to MAQ... it says unsupported data where the video is on the psp. the only way to watch video is if its been encoded to avc, which takes up much more room than the orig. mp4. now i cant watch the normal mp4s i download or rip from dvds without it taking up much much more room. DONT UPGRADE

# psp — Guest 2006-05-17 19:19

i need

# hmmm — Guest 2006-05-18 01:12

cool stuff i wonder what the next upgrade will b like

# stupid dooodoohead — Guest 2006-05-21 05:37

you can use pspvideo to copy it over to the psp, it codecs it to mp4 and puts it in the correct folder for display on the psp,

memory is so cheap now adays you can store all your porn on MP4 and watch it whenever

# dont do it — Guest 2006-06-02 08:43

the upgrades are just the psp corperations way of making it harder to downgrade. if you get 1.5 you can hack and download anything!!! just dont do it

# Don't be a idiot — Guest 2006-06-02 09:05

Sony must have not allowed homebrew for a reason. Chances are if you use homebrew you'll brick your psp. So all hoembrewers...enjoy your brick!!

# use flash — Guest 2006-06-05 18:03

cant the make a flash program that deletes security stuff on psp.

# Possible Downgrader Idea to 1.5 through a hex edit of the EBOOT — Guest 2006-06-06 20:36

Could someone get the 1.5 EBOOT, and use PBP unpacker or some program of that nature to re-label it as the 3.0 or 2.72 or something so that we could downgrade to 1.5? It would say in system settings 3.0 or something, but you would have 1.5 and the ability to run unsigned code.

Just a thought!

I hope someone cracks 2.7 though, even if it's through Locoroco. =)

COME ON FANJITA AND DITLEW AND EDISON CARTER (and any other hacker dudes out there) WE ARE RELYING ON YOU TO GIVE OUR PSPS' LIVES BACK!

Sony should look at the reality that homebrew makes their system sell and just patch up ISO loading so that can't be done. I hope some guy from Sony reads this =)

Oh yeah Sony, you must have been crazy when you gave PSP 32MB of RAM.

# wma playback — Guest 2006-06-07 11:12

I have a 2.60 PSP, I enabled wma playback

I would like too know if I will have to enable it again if I upgrade

I hope you can help me

# WMA Playbak — Guest 2006-06-07 21:09

You dont have to. It stays but dont upgrade, 2.7 is crp

# From the box. — Guest 2006-06-09 09:34

My friend kind of broke my PSP and I want to know if I were to buy a new one, could I tell if it was already 2.7 from the box? If so, how?

# firmware code — Guest 2006-06-15 13:44

I figured out that you could change the firmware text by opening up the eboot.pbp with notepad. Do you think this could do anything with the firmware?

# hi — Guest 2006-06-15 17:19

when is (3.0) going to be avalble?

# 3.0 — Guest 2006-06-19 01:23

Firmware 3.0 is going to be released in 2007

# hey pretty mad here — Guest 2006-06-24 11:58

i cant believe sony, they relaese the psp and tell you what it can do. now dont get me wrong i love my psp, its sony that pisses me off. i like all the updates, but what makes me mad is you cant play your homebrew games. but maybe someone will discover a new way for homebrew.

hey PSP is THE BEST honestly, it rocks

# 229 — PSPMASTERBLASTERSTFU 2006-07-02 12:57

newp just goes to the memory stick. clever idea though. maybe someone should develop drivers for the computer that can detect the psps flash. maybe its like the iPod. unless you have slax, you can't see the actual etc and hp folders, maybe someone should try slax to see if they can get something like a linux partition for the psp. that would be awesome.

# 2.70 is crap is basicly the same thing as 2.60 — Guest 2006-07-15 10:44

I have a 2.60 psp and i saw 2.70 on my friends psp and theres nothing really diffrent about the two versions. 2.70 only has some upgrades to the rss channel and some upgrades in the settings and there are a little more upgrades. 2.70 is a waste of time and its not worth upgrading. So if u have a 2.60 keep it and dont up grade to 2.70. But i have a question i hope some one will answer to will u need version 2.70 to play the upcoing game def jam fight for ny the take over for the psp? Because if u do i aint buying that game.
