PSP Slim waves - Image 1


With the upcoming PSP-3000 (and the resulting phasing out of the Slim), you might think that the PSP Phat has becomes pretty irrelevant now. Hold your horses though, Bubbletune has released a useful plugin to make your PSP Phat that much more up-to-date.

The Slim Waves Patch is a plugin that allows you, in cyslim5's words in the forum threads, "to Slim-inize the Phat." Yep, this makes your Phat's XMB waves match that of the Slim's.

Bubbletune says that this plugin is for FW 4.01 M33 for now. If it receives enough feedback and interest, he might release a new update that will be compatible with more firmwares.

Note that this plugin requires some flashing, so better make sure to pore over the readme file included in the downloadable archive. Also, it pays to visit the forum thread to ask the developer for specific questions, or maybe just give a simple shout out to say thanks.

Not exactly functional but nice enough app anyway. I never noticed a difference between my 2 PSP's to be honest, just shows how much notice I was taking...



And I don't see the PSP Phat ever becoming irrelevent - it may be heavier, but the build quality and materials are far better than it's weight-watchers equivilant ^_^

But it doesn't include the 13-27.bmp files and I have no idea where to find them, so I can't really test this.

Go to the forum link. The download for it is on the first post.



For those who don't know, this plugin basically makes your PSP phat act like a slim. This means you can now use the extra colors included with the slim! Also, you can make the Skype and 1Seg icons show up but they dont work.

# yeah Cool mock of the PSP Slim for the Phat...PSPMAN90 2008-09-01 09:18
10/10 for it



Too bad skype doesn't work :( in the Phat with this.



Why no one makes a extention of the PSP Phat Flash in the MS so we can add this Skype Function in the Phat using this APp or other that some codder do?



asking too much...



Cool

thanks!

sony didn't put Skype in the phat because the flash memory,its because the RAM memory(the slim have more RAM than the phat).

SONY DID NOT GIVE THE PSP PHAT SKYPE, BECAUSE IT IS NOT POWERFUL ENOUGH



there bery little that can be done by this

i also realise others have said sony was BS and that it is possible and it was a marketing scam



BUT NO SKYPE WILL NOT COME TO PSP PHAT

(my opinion)



because its quite useless, i dont care what way you swing it, its just a gimmic
