Work halted on 2.80 downgrader at German site *UPDATE*

Ó


A rumor isn't news. But when a rumor is big - then it's news. And when it's a rumor about the elusive 2.80 firmware downgrader... and it mentions Eiffel56 (remember the PRX Loader for 2.71 SE?). "Morgen Downgrader fur 2.80?" this German site says, and we just have to report on it, don't we?

the German site


2.80 Benutzer deurfen wieder hoffen, wie unser Forenmitglied Eiffel56 verkeundete, arbeitet Sie gerade an einem Downgrader feur alle 2.80 PSP. Erste Tests an einer mit Modchip ausgereusteten PSP laufen bereits. Dreucken wir Ihr die Daumen, dass Alles klappt.


Hab gerade ne 2.80 PSP von nem Freund bei mir liegen. Hab ein paar Experimente durchgefeuhrt. Demnach sollte einem 2.80 Downgrader nichts mehr im Wege stehen. Ich bin gerade am Programmieren. Morgen werde ich das ganze dann Testen, dann sollte meine PSP fertig sein, mit Modchip.


Our translation (helped along by web translators):

2.80 users may hope again, as our forum member Eiffel56 announced he's working straight on a Downgrader for all 2.80 PSPs. First tests with a PSP equipped with a modchip are running. We press it the thumbs that everything's all klappt [uh... what does klappt mean?].


Have straight ne 2.80 PSP of nem friend with me to [liegen]. A few experiments accomplished. Therefore be nothing more in the way of a 2.80 Downgrader. I am [straight at? going straight to?] programming. Tomorrow tests, then my PSP should be finished, with Modchip.




Update: Thank you all for the translations! The comments below have English translations (thanks to all of you who commented, we can't name you all - there's just too many!). We also got emailed translations - again, we can't mention you all! But thanks to all of you - your homebrew community owes you!

Sarah Michael (SarahBaby3325): I knew taking that German Elective would pay off---

2.80 Users can rejoice once again, as forum member Eiffel56 announces that he is now working on a Downgrader for 2.80 PSP's. Tests on a PSP that is modchipped are currently running. We report this that everything is clicking. [Clicking reffering to that everything is running smoothly ^_^] Having a friend with a straight 2.80 PSP [meaning Non-modchiped] to experiment with, A couple expirements are being accomplished. Therefore, there can be nothing holding back the 2.80 downgrader. I am currently Programming. Tomorrow, more tests with modchip and my PSP should be finished.


Jan Hofmeister: Since I'm German (and I graduated with English language being one of my two main subjects) I'd like to provide you with a better translation of the news post about the (upcoming?) 2.8 downgrader by Eiffel56 (who is a woman, by the way). Here goes:


2.80 users may get their hopes up again, as our forum member Eiffel56 announced she's working on a downgrader for all 2.80 PSPs right now. First tests with a modchip-equipped PSP are running. We'll keep our fingers crossed, hoping that everything will be working out. ("klappt" is colloquial for "working out") "Right now I have a friend's 2.80 PSP with me, and according to some experiments there shouldn't be anything stopping us from having a 2.80 downgrader. I'm coding right now, and should be able to test it tomorrow, since my PSP is getting a modchip right now."


Jan Rosemann (emnem98): Hello, I've read your article about the 2.80 downgrader at a German site. Because of the bad ;) translation (made with Google translator? ^^), I wanna help you with a better translation. Greetz, Jan Rosemann (emnem98) from Osnabrück in Germany.


2.80 users may hope again, as our forum member Eiffel56 announced he's working on a Downgrader for all 2.80 PSPs at the moment. First tests with a PSP equipped with a modchip are running already. We press the thumbs that we'll have a working downgrader in the near future. I have a 2.80 PSP of a friend of mine lying beside me. A few experiments accomplished. Therefore nothing more should be in the way of a 2.80 Downgrader. I am programming right now. Tomorrow I'll test it, then my PSP should be finished, with Modchip.




Update: A *new* paragraph. There's a new paragraph of text added to the German article:

Nochmal zum Mitschreiben: Ich denke es wäre eventuell möglich einen Downgrader zu machen. Ich habe nie gesagt das sich schon ein funktionierender Downgrader hier befindet. Abhängig von den Ergebnissen morgen kann das schreiben eines Downgraders keine 30 Minuten brauchen. Allerdings kann es auch mehrere Tage, Wochen, Monate dauern. Oder es ist einfach(zum jetzigen Zeitpunk) unmöglich.


the new paragraph at the German site


Google's translation (we're not even going to attempt one):

Again to writing: I think it would be possibly possible a Downgrader to be made. I have never said already the functioning Downgrader am here. Dependent on the results can need to tomorrow write a Downgraders no 30 minutes. However it can also several days, weeks, months take. Or it is simply (to the current Zeitpunk) impossible.


German speakers are free to make a [better] translation. Lots of thanks in advance.



Update: Work has officially stopped. She received too many PMs, etc. She simply needs time - she may continue the project.

Update: ARBEITEN OFFIZIELL GESTOPPT. Mir wirds zu dumm das mich alle 30 Sekunden(ich hab gestoppt!) irgendwer anschreibt und wissen will wie es läuft. Ich mache das in aller Ruhe. Und 2.80 is zickig. Ich brauche einfach meine Zeit. Ich werde drann weiterarbeiten, wenn es mir gefällt. Und ich werde drann arbeiten, denn das ist inzwischen fast schon was persönliches.

Second Text

To make the second text more clear, here it is translated again: I have a friend's 2.80 PSP lieing with me. I have made some experiments. Therefore there shouldn't be a problem with a 2.80 Downgrader. I'm programming right now. Tomorrow I'll test ist out, my PSP should then be finish, with Modship.(Last sentences is a bit starnge, even in german) I hope I could help you.

So what he is trying to say, is that he will soon be done making a program that can downgrade a PSP with 2.80 firmware to a modchip...err..uhm, softchip? j/k :p

by - 2006-11-23 13:58:28
Maybe

I was lucky to have downgraded from 2.71 but if people who have updated to 2.80 I would only recommend that you learn from your mistake and dont update straight away. Hopefully this should sort it out, but with rumors of this being a fake I am sure a proof of concept video will be released near enough straight away.

Quite true but...

that doesn't mean that she will definately accomplish her goal, does it?
by - 2006-11-23 14:02:13
i wouldnt say

that it is a fake however we have yet to hear from the girl herself. someone posting news as someone else has been done on another site (no names, but check my sig on the forums) so its possible the person is lying about the girl working on one. add to this the fact someone said we cant access the ipl on 2.80 and it begins to look unlikely that she will succeed if this is true. but until she speaks on here for herself then i shall say - not fake but unlikely.

That's what I'm thinking too... In the Forum she said that she will try to access the Flash0 with the new eLoader (or something like that). I dunno how realistic it is because if it would be that simple i bet that other Programmers would already have made a Downgrader

seen this before...

does anyone else notice a trend? i) sony releases a major new firmware (3.00, now 3.01 anyone?) ii) there are unreliable rumors of an unknown dev somewhere making a downgrader iii).... a few days later Fanjita takes the scene by storm and releases a downgrader for the older firmware? dont get me wrong, i love Fanjita and the work hes done for this scene. him and his Noobz.eu crew are geniuses, but im sure iv seen this scenario before... heres hoping i guess. my 2.80 psp was getting little to no use before the eLoader... cheers

What The Advantage?

Everyone's screaming for 2.80 downgrader, what I don't quite understand is why? I didn't know anything about the homebrew scene before I stumbled onto this site (werid, I know) Anyway I'd just upgraded to 2.80 and had ever tried the 2.81 upgrade but it was so slow downloading I turned my PSP off. I'm glad I did. Now with the eloader, I can load HEAPS of homebrew and all sorts of cool stuff. So why is everyone wanting this major downgrader? As far as I can tell, the only good thing about lower firmwares is it allows you to emulate UMDs? Is that the big drawcard? Or am I missing something? Cheers, Tim
by impatient - 2006-11-23 15:10:41
not only ISOs

ISOs isn't the only thing, there are some homebrews that require kernel-mode (or something else in some cases maybe) that can't run on 2.80, two examples are Bochs and IR Shell

by - 2006-11-23 15:16:45
Yes. Yes, it is.

Although loathe to admit it (myself included), a lot of "homebrew fans" are really just pirates, so .iso's/etc are much loved.

@vater

you don't need kernel, flash0 is enough ... noob -.-
by - 2006-11-23 15:19:06
Yep ur missing something

1.5 firmware gives you full Kernel access which means potentially more speed, use of the Psp Media Engine, more RAM availiable for emulation or homebrew. For example, Snes TYL running in kernel mode uses the Media Engine (a seperate 333mhz co-processor) for all sound processing therefore speeding up the overall emulation since the main CPU has less load and more time. Now Snes TYL running in User Mode does not have access to the Media Engine and therefore runs slower. You can also run all homebrew direct from the XMB in 1.5 firmware and overall you have more options for the future. Thats only part of what you're missing.

by - 2006-11-23 15:37:24
doubt it

I doubt this is real... I reckon it's way too soon... I mean, the 2.71 downgrader didn't emerge for a long time... but then again, fanjita (the amazing) and co. did try and make sure it was stable before... although I remember all the noobs who didn't read the readme and bricked their psps..... oh well, there's still hope... I hope this is real, but nah... it'll be a month or two yet realistically

Absolutely wrong.

You need to have kernel mode access to rewrite the IPL (bootloader). flash0 is NOT enough.

i think eiffel56 is one of the coders and real programmers that associated with the tiff exploits or something, but i DO REMEMBER SO TRUST ME, im positive we'll have a downgrader in no time :P german or not, i believe woo go germany

2.71

1.5 lets you upgrade to the one and only custom firmware 2.71SE. Which in turn turns devhook into a transparent process. Which is lovely. And runs EVERY UMD, iso, and homebrew (.avi Movieplayer!) you want. Get it ;)

i got eiffels (sorry if i spelled it wrong) program se-customizer. and though i didnt know she was a girl or pretty much anything about her (not like it makes a difference) this still would be one exciting feat. i cant not question its authenacy but i aslo dont question that the program is nothing like a downgrader but is still not an easy to make program. dumping registry and ram flash isnt easy so i dont question her skills either if shes doing it great (not like it helps me) but itll still create alot more h-b fans and in return makes the scene better. here's hoping

Therefore be nothing more in the way of a 2.80 Downgrader. I am already at programming. Tomorrow's tests will show, my PSP with UP should be finished then.

I think it´s True!

I think it´s true! I´m comin´from Germany and portable-news.de is a big german, seriously site. But I will see a Video befor trying. My PSP is 2.71 SE-B´´ and I´ve made a lot of tests with downgraders, kernel loaders,... Freu mich schon aufs Video! *g* (german text)

No

1.50 and 3.01 i have. ANyway i love my 1.5 more than anything. Back to the subject i've learned about this their names. Eifle56 (sang i'm blue dabu di dabu dai) and Eminem has to be a fake!

i think it´s coming today...
by - 2006-11-24 09:08:39
Wasn't it suppose to come out today?

If this is true why haven't we seen any video proof or heard any updates on the progress? Truthfully speaking I think this is a fake, how did she get IPL access? Hopefully I'm proved wrong, and this thing will hit the QJ.net site tonight, which would be fantastic. P.S where is Dark_Alex and Booster just now, is there something big coming soon from them which will get things moving for 2.80+ users?
by - 2006-11-24 09:41:44
if it is....

i think this is a fake but if it was real i still wouldent downgrade as theres a risk of bricking the psp and frankly i couldent live without mine!!!!
by - 2006-11-24 09:43:55
...

yep, i agree, probably fake
by - 2006-11-24 09:51:57
hmmm....

i suppose you guys do realize that if the 2.80 downgrader is genuine then the chances are we have cracked 2.81 and 3.00 right?
by impatient - 2006-11-24 10:09:43
Sure it won't work on ta-82

It might not work on ta-82 but most likely it will work on non-ta-82/86, if it in fact will work (as I understand it, from crappy babelfish translations, eiffel only says that she might be able to make a downgrader if the test she's going to do right about now turns out the way all of us hopes to)

I think its fake but i could be wrong

translation

here is a rough translation: Note: I think that i would be possible to write a downgrader. I've never said that there is a working downgrader yet. Depending on tomorrows results, writing of a downgrader would could take less than 30minutes. But it could also take days, weeks or months. Or it is just impossible right now.

Nerds!

I'm German. Those guys sound like nerds to me. If they already had ANY clue, they wouldn't write it might take so and so long... they already knew it... The can code a bit, maybe... But they think it's that easy to hack a Sony system. And I can assure you: It's not. All this guy wrote is: I will have a closer look at the system... THAT'S ALL! Forget about it. It's not a rumor though... it's just nerds speaking out their dreams...

WHY?

why do u think sony will let us have homebrew after all the attempts to not let us have it on out beautiful psp's there never jest going to give us a firmware where they let us have homebrew unless they forget something
by - 2006-11-24 15:05:53
Some fo you

First off weather it was real or not you all need not ever get your hopes to high, untill the progress is offical and tested I could say im working on a downgrader for 3.0 better yet a custom firmware for an unreleased 4.0 FW yeah and then Id be lieing... Facts are when their is something solid youll probally notice that their will actually be something to download... untill that dont get your hopes to high and dont bug the devs, they cannot code if they asre answering all your stupid questions that are about the same, over and over and over I hope to see an advancement aswell, like kernal access in 3.x but what i want and what their is are 2 DIFFERENT THINGS haha
by - 2006-11-24 15:06:56
translator^^

Nochmal zum Mitschreiben: Ich denke es wäre eventuell möglich einen Downgrader zu machen. Ich habe nie gesagt das sich schon ein funktionierender Downgrader hier befindet. Abhängig von den Ergebnissen morgen kann das schreiben eines Downgraders keine 30 Minuten brauchen. Allerdings kann es auch mehrere Tage, Wochen, Monate dauern. Oder es ist einfach(zum jetzigen Zeitpunk) unmöglich. Remind: I think a downgrader could be possible. I've never said there is already one. Depending on the results tomorrow, it shouldn't take more then 30 minutes to write the downgrader, or days.... weeks...month...or it's simply impossible (right now!).

Translation for the Update

Well, I´m a native german, so here´s my translation: As I said: I think, that it is possible to create a downgrader. But I never said, that I already have a working one here. Depending on the results tommorrow, I can write one within 30 minutes. But... it could take days, weeks or even months to make one. Or it may just be impossible right now.

it once way came

I would not call fake but would call nay sayers to shut up obscene ramblings. If a downgrader into come out then you have to trust at basic level. Only then will Devers/ Devettes want continue. You Lot who not appreciate hard times and hard werk who fable their interest and invoke mad anger beast. Freak many people when necessity reminds them of yore. Soon fantastic revelation all commence and bring untold treasures, I believe in mystical gestures beset by elder. Understanding of lost logic plays unto small majority. Myself respect neverenders. Salute!
by - 2006-11-24 16:03:22
Take your time, screw the hype

I don't see why coders have to report if its not near done. if they don't know, they shouldn't try make news to be known. If it doesn't work out, they'll be known as a fake. or mabe they'll go by a new name. wish them luck

Work stopped.

Look at the post again, it's updated again. "Update: ARBEITEN OFFIZIELL GESTOPPT. Mir wirds zu dumm das mich alle 30 Sekunden(ich hab gestoppt!) irgendwer anschreibt und wissen will wie es läuft. Ich mache das in aller Ruhe. Und 2.80 is zickig. Ich brauche einfach meine Zeit. Ich werde drann weiterarbeiten, wenn es mir gefällt. Und ich werde drann arbeiten, denn das ist inzwischen fast schon was persönliches."" Google translation: "Update: WORK OFFICIAL STOPPED. Me wirds to stupidly me every 30 seconds (I stopped!) possibly who writes down and wants to know like it runs. I make in all peace. And 2,80 is zickig. I need simply my time. I will continue working drann, if it pleases me. And I will work drann, because that is in the meantime nearly already which personal."

by coolguy5678 - 2006-11-24 23:53:33
Nope

There's no kernel access in 2.80 . We have flash0 access, but flash0 access !+ kernel mode, and flash0 access !+ downgrader, because we still need access to the IPL. !+ means "does not equal"

hello my mom and dad both graduated from college with a german and english docrotit and they helped me decypher the german/english code and all the translations thus far are WRONG! this is the correct translation 2.80 nerds dont deserve hope as they are noobs who upgrade. I downgraded to 1.5 cause im a pwner like that. nobody can pwn like i do. I wish i could make a 2.80 downgrader and shove it up all thows noobs usb slot! they SHOULDNT have upgraded! its perposterous! thows stuped noob cakes! and that is the correct german translation
