Rumor: PSP firmware update on the horizon?

Posted Sep 5, 2007 at 1:31AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Firmware, Rumors Tags: memory stick, psp firmware, Sony, VAIO

The latest information from the rumor mill is that the PSP will be receiving a firmware update by mid-September. This information was found by PSP Vault in an article about a Sony VAIO feature that creates 1-Seg broadcasts on a Memory Stick Duo.

It specifically mentions that "a PSP system software update is planned for mid-September for the playback of recorded 1-Seg programs." Aside from that, there was no other information given in the article regarding the update.

It should be noted that this rumor further supports earlier news that a firmware update is in the works because of a bug in playing Biohazard Director's Cut on the PSP. The official statement from Sony stated that the bug will be fixed in a firmware update in the beginning of September. Could it be that the two firmware updates are one and the same?

# firmware — Guest 2007-09-05 05:57

i think they might do something so pandoras battery wont work like move files or summin

# OMG NO. — Guest 2007-09-05 06:54

No wai! AN UPDATE?

That's never happened before!

# ... — Guest 2007-09-05 07:58

probably your game_plugin.prx or game_plugin.rco is corrupt. try reflashing it.

# yea — Guest 2007-09-05 08:49

Yes, if you go to the online manual on Sony right now, it's for 3.60. It also has features markes for PSP-2000 only.

# die kaz — Guest 2007-09-05 10:00

wtf is is with these sonstant freakin updates god sony get a clue this is one more of ur uneeded *****ware updates, you guys *****ing suck go die

# ... — Guest 2007-09-05 11:22

If you're hating Sony so much, why are using a PSP?

Think before you write something.

Go play with your M$ console, X-Bot.

# ... — Guest 2007-09-05 11:40

Silver tiger you are, to be blunt, a *****hole.

How childish are you, that you resort to insults and name calling. Your head is shoved so far into the ass of ignorance... with no chance of seeing the light of day again.

# goodie! — Guest 2007-09-05 11:48

i can't wait to see what happens! i've already put off updating my friends custom firmwares, because i have a good feeling there will be a newer custom firmware this month!

i don't care how many times Sony updates their official firmware. If it won't run my emulators, it is useless to me...!

# ... — Guest 2007-09-05 11:52

WildC*rd and M33 don't decrypt firmwares. They just make custom ones.

# Dear Bob — Guest 2007-09-05 11:56

Seeing how Pandora's Battery works on a PSP *WITHOUT ANY FIRMWARE*, it's not possible to block it with a new firmware.

# stop spamming — Guest 2007-09-05 14:02

man, I wish these guys would stop spamming. They keep saying stuff about legit online money, but we all know the one to go to is www.c@shcrate.com/259295 (replace the @ with an A)

# le gasp — Guest 2007-09-05 14:03

gasp! I know what you mean!!! EVERYONE, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES, THERE'S AN UPDATE! GAASSSPPP!

# =) — Guest 2007-09-05 14:31

*also included in this update:

- video out function for psp-1000 series

-flash0 space increased to 64mb

- bluetooth function

- and more security for your benifits

# Moar. — Guest 2007-09-05 14:51

Moar PSX tweaks!

That's the only reason I update... And internet browser tweaks. Tweaks Tweaks Tweaks.

# they think i forgot — Guest 2007-09-05 15:24

what ever happened to the voip service they promised a few years back in their psp calender at that press confrense and all that other stuff

they still haven't even released the camera in the US

# I can't wait until... — Guest 2007-09-05 15:35

I can't wait until 3.60 gets a custom firmware for it. Sony gets owned every time by the psp hackers.

# Zero tolerance. — Guest 2007-09-05 16:35

The spamming will stop.

Referral number 259295 reported as being spammed on c@ashcrate.com (replace the @ with an a)

You git your wish about stopping the spamming. Yay!

# firmware — Guest 2007-09-05 22:50

cheers FreePlay for the reply i didnt read pandoras battery write my bad lol

# eh.. — Guest 2007-09-06 00:56

not exactly.. snitch

# sure... — Guest 2007-09-06 01:47

They can pull 32mb out of nowhere, somehow create a PAL and NTSC output on old hardware AND add a bluetooth transmitter/reciever using a simple software update. It's a wonder Vista doesn't just create the 3000GB of RAM you really need to run it...

# the guy who called silver-tiger an a-hole — Guest 2007-09-06 01:49

Silver tiger you are, to be blunt, a *****hole.

Well u must be smokin somethin cuz u were just callin him names to like an a**hole, but your far too iggnorant to no any better! Not to mention you sounded like a angry six year old with the whole name calling bit!

# m33 — addie4u2nv 2007-09-06 02:20

m33 is working now on a 3.60 firmware hack used with need 4 speed rivals or carbon its one of the games.it should be released a few weeks after the psp slim launch.

# . — Guest 2007-09-06 02:33

The whole point of this new PSP is to block homebrew. The new features are pretty pointless.

Sony lied about the first PSP having TV output.

The new PSP is cheaply made. The UMD mechanism is crap and the smaller size means it could overheat, especially with new 333mhz games.

No more infared port (could have been useful.)

Don't buy this POS!

# ... — Guest 2007-09-06 03:17

ehh, that wasn't meant to be serious.

# ... — Guest 2007-09-06 03:24

thanks tdom123, that is eactly the reason why I hate this board so much. Too much flamers, ads, and so on. And @ "i hate Sony": sorry 'bout xBot, I was in the middle of the fight ;)

# g — Guest 2007-09-06 03:43

3.6O is leaked! I took apart my psp slim to show! you need 20 posts to see the mod section at pspmania.co.nr! Im trying to plant it in my old psp!

# to silver-tiger — Guest 2007-09-06 05:13

people use the PSP because it is very powerful (or was when it was released). and because of homebrew it doesn't suck. I do not support sony, bu I can not deny that hackers have made the PSP worth the money, (though I i wish I could pay the hackers 200 bucks for it instead of sony)

# lol! — Guest 2007-09-06 05:58

wow nice try bro.. but common you gotta do better then that!

lolZ halarious you even attmpted it..

# .. — Guest 2007-09-06 06:13

@ cash is GAY i would say join the guy before him with the name as "..." just cuase he provided more information and has a proof of payment....

cash is just gay to act like he hated spam then do it himself

lolZ

he must be some little kid trying to be smart..

# .. — Guest 2007-09-06 06:17

@ addie4u2nv carbon has been out for a while now... and from what i heard sony will be releasing a official firmware for the psp in around mid september...

im pretty sure the new game will com out after that

and i wonder if they will have 2 difrent updates... 1 for slim and another for the fat one

sinse the flash seems to be diffrent...

sony did pretty good with this.. back to the drawing board..

# .. — Guest 2007-09-06 06:23

also meant to be in the update...

a self distruct button

a 50000 mb of ram

liquid cooling

able to play all the homebrew and iso's you want

and live pron!!

brapp brapp

# the kid — Guest 2007-09-06 06:31

sup? I'm the c@sh guy. I'm just too lazy to post pics. besides, i'm not really the guy who owns the account. he pays me to promote for him. i did the @ thing because the word c a s h doesn't appear. see: cash.

as for just being a smart kid, lol, I was hoping that by being funny, my friend would get more referrals. he pays me a dollar for each referral i get him. but seriously, try it out. he's really gotten checks. i just find it easier to get paid a dollar per referral than to do the work associated with setting up an account. again the account is www.c@shcrate.com/259295 (replace the @ with an A) ;P

# Imbecile. — Guest 2007-09-09 09:12

The 333mHz speed has nothing to do with the UMD drive. That's the CPU speed.

Lern u a buuk or tu.
