Undiluted Platinum may have Compatibility Problems? |
Ó
All of this is premised upon the work of busy PSP enthusiasts, led by 0okm, who have searched through publicly available catalogs of part numbers and used photos of these, along with their own knowledge of the insides of a PSP, to come to the conclusion that there is a conflict between the modchip and newer versions of the PSP. Whether or not the developers of the Undiluted Platinum modchip were aware of this situation before releasing it is uncertain.
Hopefully, we will be able to chalk this up to a discrepancy with the part numbers and not a change that will affect many PSP users. However, if the suspicions of Ookm and his cohorts turn out to be a reality, it is still possible for owners of older PSPs to use Undiluted Platinum and it also might be possible for the developers of UP to make the changes necessary to compensate for any voltage irregularities that are present.
As you can see the numbers on the photographs below (left: old chip/ right: new chip) are hard to read and some have also mentioned that it would be unlikely for Sony to make such a change as this right now. Either way it was an excellent discovery and something we must all look out for when planning to purchase hardware such as a modchip.
If you are curious about your PSP's chipset, you can check out this video which will guide you through the beginning steps of opening your PSP for examination. Be aware that opening your PSP will void your warranty, and QJ.NET takes no responsibility for any damage that may be caused.

Any more nice news?
So... in short, most of the people who can make use of a modchip are the ones with the older 1.5 firmware already. xD
whos going to waist there money on this Devhook is so much better and i can buy a 4gb memory card for the price they want for the mob chip and not have to open my psp! so unless they make this work on 2.5+ firmwares this is as useful as a bricked psp
why would u even want this ur probably gonna screw up ur psp just to play homebrew? waste
Thats means that alot of ppl can't use it. Millions of people got their psp's at christmas when 2.01 when in the psp.
MOD CHIP IS ABSOLUTE CRAP FOR PEOPLE WHO GOT THEIR PSPS AT CHRISTMAS (UK) im on about.
LOL a modchip that only works with the earliest PSP that came with 1.50 firmwares, how usefull !
"If you are curious about your PSP's chipset, you can check out this video which will guide you through the beginning steps of opening your PSP for examination."
LOL... I can see the faces of the adventurers that will disassemble the PSP....
"Buaaaaa....I bricked my PSP....buaaaaaaa..."
yeah opening ur psp is an adventure lol
"Imagine there's no modchip

Why can't they make the chip work on 1.8v power supply?
Those who had pre-ordered the modchip : muhahaha.
the music of that video is so annoying
because its more fun to make _assumptions_ on what the actel and circuits of something no-one has in hand to comment on, can do.
If indeed the PSPs in question have been around since October 2005, I doubt UP will have issues with them.
For all we (or ookm) knows, at this point the onboard 32M flash chip could even be 1.8V already, and onboard circuits could be doing voltage matching to 2.5V for older models of PSP
check out the modchipstore:
http://www.modchipstore.com/professional-pre-modified-sony-psp-handheld-console-mod-chip-1-282.html
they are selling pre installed UP PSP's, white ceramic, so i'm thinking those psp they are selling is most likely newer models.... huh?

make something better then? or stfu.. i dont see you making anything.. these guys are puttin their work in to this, its not their fault you couldnt afford a PSP till christmas, or cant afford games to play on it..

What a piece of *****. Just buy another PSP or use devhook.
i still say its a hoax... think about it, for the price of a psp 250 this guy prolly bricked it. then desided to make a fake mod chip get people wired up about it, sell it for 100 each 1000 kids preorder it. he walks off with 100k and comes up with excuses not to reliece it. of iam ahving problems with 2.7 next thing you know he wants to wait to see if it works with 2.8 to reliec it blah blah
''So... in short, most of the people who can make use of a modchip are the ones with the older 1.5 firmware already. xD''
Y'know, it will come in handy for people that upgraded their psp like me. I have a launch PSP, with 2.6.
..And some "moron" there, attempted to flame me. But, he lacked the necessary wit to make it effective.
Anyway, I think people here should WAIT before investing money into this. There are many variables to consider when adding an extra chip to a PORTABLE device.
This is NOT a Ps2 or an Xbox. Handhelds dont generally come with cooling fans and extra pcb tenacity to accomodate 'extras'. My concerns were indeed compatibility and heat transfer and/or buildup.
The chip may work, but for how long and with what consistency over time?
I can guarantee you guys one thing:
a generic, cheaper modchip will follow in less than 3 months. MARK MY WORDS.
Ceramic PSPs were made recently, but there is still a chance they were made before Oct 2005. ($500 for a UP PSP wow!) We will find out soon enuff what the deal is either way!
I know a good deal of info on micro leds. I think that you would be able to leech the power needed for the modchip from either one of the leds that are used. Preferably the power on LED(since its continuous).
Just a thought that you might have overlooked.
That particular led needs atleast 3V to activate.(that color green)
Heya everybody,
I was wondering if this chip would work on the first version of the PSP.
I bought mine in january 2005, but it was built on august 2004, so i thought it might be too old lol.
Do you reckon it will work on my PSP ?
Thx !
To all the "tech" that produced this news.....you have more than 3,3 V on EVERY psp ever produced....the battery of a psp is 3,6 V...and the battery connector is right on the motherboard...add a diode and you have the 3,3V/2,5V you need.......

I got my psp some time in early december at costco, in a bundle coming with wipeout pure and twisted metal, and came with firmware 2.0, is there a posibility i can still use this?
no chance

i don't think "Undiluted Platinum" support PSP new ver. hardware(TA-082)
i agree, their will be a cheaper mod chip in about 3 monthes after. as far as the old and new goes, i have an original 1.5 upgraded to 2.0 and soon be downgrading back to 1.5 so no worries for me :)
I hope for anybody that this problem will be solved and that everybody get his modchip. But when i'm reading this things, I'm happy to own a 1,5 psp... And I'm wondering if it isn't better to buy a cheap used 1,5 PSP than buying an expensive modchip...
Are you people stupid?
Say i have a 1.50 psp, and i upgrade it to 2.70, does that make it have a newer hardware?
Define new.
New might be the ones shipping in the last month, it doesnt mean 2.01 you *****ing retards.
Also, who told you it doesnt work with 2.50+? Ofcorse it does, if you can upgrade to it with a unmodded psp, you can upgrade with a modded psp.
You people, you have some seriouis issues.
i got a psp old enough to run this but i am on v2.6 as i gave up on homebrew when the lazy homebrew was happening just for users wanting free premium.
mine came as 1.5 and it was great but i prefer the newer firmware as a psp. i play psp games on my psp so i needed the newer firmware. devhook is a step backwards in my eyes as is this modchip. what we need is the new firmware to keep being cracked until Sony start embracing the homebrew community but as long as people are wanting to keep iso loaders as the norm they never will.
i'd like the modchip as a way to run all homebrew and all my games on the same machine but i wont risk it. i'll wait for a software solution that has much less risk involved. kinda like devhook but that runs from the newer firmware. like eloader but more compatible. fanjita has the right idea.
to all the people saying whats the point if it only works for the people with the old firmware i say stfu noobs. the people that are still clinging to there 1.5's are probly itching to upgrade and use the new features but wont as they love the ease to run homebrew straight from the xmb too much. a way to have 2 firmwares like this is perfect so that there can be a 1.5 and the latest firmware. i know i'd like to run ps1 games from the upcoming sony emulator and also be able to run homebrew emulators straight from the xmb.
the only people moaning are the people that can't use it. If it bothers you that much then sell your psp and buy a premodded psp when this is released. it will cost more but wil be worth it to shut you up.
bring on the flames.
Yea, sucks to be the people that preordered it already. I think this would have been something that you would test long before the modchip preorders were avaliable. However, I suppose it would be a difficult issue to predict.
I'm wondering how many people want this modchip for homebrew and how many for illegal isos... qj.net should make a poll about this... I think, over 80% want this chip for playing illegal isos. What do you think ?
I don't want it for ISOs...I want it so I can keep using IR Shell and other 1.5 homebrews and also be able to use the new firmware features like VOIP and the Camera and the PS1 Emulator, etc.
I think you want it to play ISOs.
What do you think?
Chip changes due to die shrinks are not unlikely. The DDR RAM / FLASH part obviously got shrunk.
TA-082 should be expected with box version I. Means 2.60 (or higher). Up to now there is no report of H with TA-082.
I am already able to run two firmwares on my PSP. I use devhook and put my katamari ISO (I own the game by the way) on my chip and bam I have all the benefits of 2.6 without upgrading. I only have two games that needed higher firmware battlefront2 and katamari. I got these for my birthday and didn't want to upgrade. But with devhook they work great and I have all my games on one chip. So this doesn't interest me in the least. Also people say this will help those who have "bricked" PSPs. Do people accidentally "brick" their psp and then just leave them alone to buy a new one if they can't exchange it hoping that somehow it can magically be fixed? I mean how many "bricked PSPs are there just laying around hoping to be fixed?
im still waiting for an external one to come out (if thats possible)
have i really no chance to get the chip working, if i have a psp bought in december 2005 and at the beginning there was 2.0??? this cant be true. i cant believe it!
This is just pure rumors and speculation - theres a chance this might not even be true. I REALLY want there to be a version of DevHook that supports 2.7, and I'm waiting for that. When that comes out, selling my PSP.. maybe spend an extra 50 bucks to get a 1.5.
when i got my psp it was 2.01 and it was march 26th 2006 so is mine ok?
I don't think you can be 100% sure unless you look at the board like the post said. This will void your warrenty and since you just got yours at christmas it would not be wise to open it just incase it gets messed up. That's just my thoughts I know if I just got my psp I wouldn't want to go messing about inside it. Another option for you is if you have 2.0 just use the downgrader to go to 1.5. Then youcan use devhook and play newer games and use all the newer fearures of 2.5fw but still have 1.5 for homebrew. Just an idea.
my psp was a 1.5 that i upgraded so i could play mlb 06 the show and i got it in december of last year, i already reserved my mod chip so hopefully it will work with my psp
It's possible that it won't work yet, and another mod will be needed. Who knows? But it isn't out yet, so why the speculation?
Ahh, I know. 0okm is looking for anything he can to discredit this mod. He couldn't get anything working besides half-assed firmware replacements, and he has absolutely no clue how someone got this working properly.
When the mod first came out, a lot of people jumped aroudn saying it was a ripoff of 0okm's work. Who would rip off unusable trash? The mod will support not only the latest firmware, but modified firmware. 0okm's wasn't even compatible with 2.5. Maybe once he takes a look at the mod, he can figure out where he messed up/had no clue.
So, if you have this psp model. Be cautious, but don't fear the end of the world. 0okm is desperate, and this is all he could come up with.
by newer psps what exactly does it mean? like does it mean any psp bought this year or near the end of last year?
btw undiluted platinum is gonna be stupid anyway.
Having bricked 2 PSP's, and swapping the same clear asterix faceplate onto all 3 that I have owned has enlightened me to the fact that some PSP's have brighter lights.. So it makes perfect sense that some are manufactured differently, and that some have different power supplies.
and Silenx is a funny ass dude
to those that dont know.
the wire installation note wasnt exactly, it was give or take 1 wire.
which would cover the use of an extra wire needed for voltage alterations.
maybe theres 2 resistors on the board and you select the one you use by what model you have. or by attaching a wire to another resistor if you need add or reduce the extra 0.7-1.2volts.
Just use common sense in the tought of possibilities. i doubt a modchip maker would make a modchip for ALL VERSIONS and not have a way to deal with it. duh.
yes our *****ing chip doesnt work great
In some ways this totally defeats the entire point of the mod chip... it was supposed to let newer PSPs use homebrew, amongst other things, but now even that looks unlikely. Im sure they'll figure something out
What if the UP Creators already knew this and this is the "little problem" they had to fix before releasing it? And the 23 wires is for old psp's and the 24 wires os for newer psps?
just something to think about.
tc214
Phew, mine SHIPPED with FW 1.52, was DOWNGRADED to 1.50, got SCREWED by Sony to 2.50, and later by a mistake to 2.70.
My PSP is compatiple!!!
Thank god, I'm so happy!!!
But I still feel very bad for you other guys...
I hope this will be fixed untill v1.1 of the chip.
mines say TA-081, so I hope it should work when I get the modchip install. At first I was trying to fix something wronge with my psp and now the wifi didn't work, but now I fix it. So be careful when you take your PSP apart, I did, but sometimes you hand start doing something your not to and mess up the PSP.
i got an idea ! ... why don`t you guys just WAIT and see.
Nobody even had heir hands on one so notthing is certain.
Read the article again it clearly states this to be considered an rumour.
I remember this type of BS when the first xbox chip came out.
Well, both my PSPs are from before oct 05, so Im safe at least, although, my current 2.6 is messed up and I have to get it replaced, so I might get screwed on this one >.<
this will cause a problem if true.
the makers will probably make a version of the modchip for the newer PSPs.
From what I understand, the modchip wont fit because of how the new boards are shaped, so Im guessing it shoudlnt be too hard to change its shape to fit properly
ok, missed the part about the voltage thing.
Well anyway, it still shouldnt be too hard to make a version work with a different voltage though. Im sure thats what theyll do
glad i bought my psp which came with a V1.00 update on it... shouldnt have any problems with the new modchip ;)
I bought it back in february, it was 2.01 at the time. Would this be considered a "newer" psp?
what about the 1.00/1.50 users that have never played some of the newer games? they're going to benefit from it even if the new psp users dont.
and it wasnt just build to let 2.7 users have homebrew, it was also build to let 1.0 and 1.5 users have newer games and to let new coders have a chance instead of spending £200 every time they bricked their psp trying to code something for it.
not long ago, i read that this new UP mod chip would utilise the same flash as in the psp, so, the voltage thing shouldnt bother the UP rite? i mean whats the point in making two different flash chips that do the exact same thing but need different voltages to get them to work?
it was on THIS site that i read that it has the same NAND flash as the psp, so i think someone is BSing about it not working 'cause so far all the signs point in 1 direction "compatability for all"
Good greif. It's about time some of these idiots read the FACTS of the article and realised that this is all just SPECULATION at this stage. Jeez, It's not like you need to be a detective or anything. The chip's not even released yet, and people are flaming it just because they THINK they can't use it.
Take a breath guys, pick up your PSP and "play on".
i bet if QJ had a poll that the people that are complaining about it are the ones that cant use it.
MY SOLUTION TO THE MODCHIP INCOMPATABILITY : people that are complaining can either:
A:Create their own modchip thats compatible with their psp
B:STFU and wait untill one is made
C: go slit their wrists and make ALOT of people happy
WERE SICK OF THE COMPLAINING,ITS NOT OUR FAULT YOU COULDNT AFFORD A PSP UNTILL SONY HAD SCREWED YOU OVER.
i got my psp from the 2nd shipment, but got it repaired 3 months ago. is that long enough?????
Can the date code located under the battery be used to determine compatibility?
I bought mine about 18 months ago and it came with 1.50 installed. The date code of my PSP is 5B.
The U.P will work on all types of PSP. The hardware was just an upgrade to prevent events such as the rare but possible PSP being bricked when the battery power is empty.
Here is what Zeus said when showing the image of U.P installed:
Here is a picture of the Undluted Platinum PSP modchip installed inside a shiny new ceramic white PSP, it fits perfectly!
^^^ That's right. Installed on a shiny new Ceramic White PSP, and it fits perfectly:
SO BASICALLY, there was no hardware change. The SAMSUNG 507's were probably replaced by the 543's, and the TA-082 was just a new hardware version to help with the bugs fixed.... and if the U.P fits perfectly, then the hardware architecture was not touched at all.
THINK ppl!!! especially you 0okm!
Do you know what different of K5E5658ACM-D060 & K5E5658HCM-D060 ?
please take a research before BS !!

"It all comes down to this: If the new PSPs (with part labels TA-082) use 1.8V powersupply and the Actel FPGA used on undiluted Platinum supports 3.3V/2.5V only, the mod chip may not work on the newer PSPs."
This isn't a matter of "if". This is a fact. This is what your article *should* say:
It all comes down to this: The new PSPs (with part labels TA-082) use 1.8V powersupply and the Actel FPGA used on undiluted Platinum supports 3.3V/2.5V only. The mod chip will not work on the newer PSPs.
soopergooman is correct. The power can be sapped from other places. I also believe it's an extra wire for the newer PSPs..
can you say without a doubt that the chip onboard the UP is a HCM or ACM...?
all you likely really know for certain is the flash chips you had on hand before wont work with your old mod method without extra circuitry or different chips (perhaps an Actel and various other components could solve that for you so there is no need to get another revison of flash chip?)
well i have a psp and on the side of the box it sez 1001, and they don't make those anymore. I just upgraded it often until i found out about homebrew. i bought it last october so i should be okay riiiight?
Why is it that everytime someone has something negative to say about something a few idiots say "well why don't you make one yourself then" that is getting kinda old. Not everyone will love everything that is made for the PSP weather it is homebrew or hardware. Everyone is allowed his or her own opinion. That is why this is a comment section. If someones opinion differs from yours so what. Just leave them alone.
I have 3.6v .......
I am no technology expert, but perhaps the surface mount resistors do step down the voltage if needed?
It is possible there is a different wiring method for the newer psps so the chip could take the voltage difference. Again, this *COULD* be the small problem the UJP creators were talking about when they had their small problem.
Good Point thunderchild214. That could be it, only time will tell, and these are exiting times.....
There are quite a few now who thinks that there is 2 diff ways of wiring it. So lets hope for good news.
And harleyg..... I hope for your sake that your post was a joke, but if not: before you start flaming people, make sure you know what you're talking about...... see if someone can teach you the diff between hardware and software.
shove a small 1.5v battery in there and link it up to the chip. Or get some power from the onboard battery and use a resistor or something.
They said you have to solder 23 OR 24 wires. So maybe one wire is a resistor for the newer psp's
ouboaUBEgoEgbsL JG. thats basically what you are doing here.. YAY FOR SPAM, and there are very simple ways of fixing this so i'd just STFU unless i knew what i was talking about but you guys can just go have a flame war like everytime theres something that costs money... honestly im surpised you kids even got psps when they came out, just cause all you do is ***** about money. it may not seem like it but thats what you're doing
I have the Giga Pack, is it compatible?
.
If this speculation is correct, no, it will not work on PSPs shipped with 2.01 and above, however ones shipped with 2.0 and below should. But like everyone is saying, this is speculation, it's not confirmed as noone has gotten their hands on a UP unit to test it. PSPs started being shipped with 2.01 when it was released I'm sure, so it is likely that the chip makers found out when testing it, as they probably went through a few PSPs when creating it, and noticed the problem, and compensated for it. Nobody knows for sure except the ones that had a hand in the development of UP, so before you count it out, just wait and see...
My PSP Number is 1000.
Its the Jap Version.
Can i get the Chip and it works for me?
Or do i need the Prototyp of PSP?hahahahaha
Cry Baby Cry!
btw, just because ppl bought their psp @ xmas, it still may have beeo made before october
I dont see why you cant make a chip that plugs into the usb... All this is pointless and will continue to be until there is a 2.6 downgrader.. If that doesnt come before the Ps1 emulator does then "F*U*C*K" the homebrew scene I myself I have had enough of it. The ps1 emulator is going to have all those great RPGs Legend of Legia , Legend of Dragoon, Chrono Cross, and FF7.
Those alone will make me update...
My psp is a 1.5 version by default
so i can use the chip =)
then why not upgrade right now, you obviously dont care now.
you piss me off
you cant make a chip that plugs into the USB because the USB only accesses the memory stick slot, not the actual psp
the modchip scares were caused because the newer psp's are designed to use less power than the old ones . the chip will be built to change the power flow accordingly. i wouldnt worry about compatibility of psp versions but how many people will fry their brand new box fresh expensive mod chips with unstable bios. my advice is wait a few weeks for a stablebios as fresh bios have a tendancy to be fatally buggy to consoles as i learned the hard way with my first xbox modchip ; ( neway stop being so depressed the mod chip is a step in the right direction say it with me its my console and ill do whatever the hell i want with it
So let me get one thing straight, I got my psp in April 2005, but have firmware 2.7, but the modchip will still work perfectly, correct?
yes thats right
It's a RUMOR, but still...
be sure to buy the chip or premodded PSPs!!!

the name of the game is Kazuo

See if it's a simple matter of voltage, there should only be two scenarios:
1) If it's the voltage leaving the chip is too high, the solution is resistors
2) If the issue is not enough voltage entering the chip, something similar to a CR2032 battery cell should suffice.
for those who dont understand UPGRADING / BUYING A 2.01 + fw psp = RETARDED - buy a damn 1.5 on ebay

The ceramic psps were made after October 2005 as far as I know, so since themodchipstore .com is shipping preinstalled ceramic white psps, i think this is untrue
Eh doesnt matter to me anyways, got mine the day it came out :)
so you can get the chip as long as yuo bought a psp before
october 2005? well i guess im set, im gonna buy this thing right after they prove that it can unbrick a psp....which i highly doubt it can do, hos it gonna do that if a bricked psp can't stay functional for more than a few seconds? yeh that should be a big question but no ones asked it yet, at least i dont think so...
i want it to play isos
Being able to hide unregistered comments is a godsend...
Anyhow, I'm sure the UDP people either took this into account, or will have a solution. Hopefully someone sends in a newer one for a modchip install, so they can test on the spot.
i got my psp on US release day. no problems for me :)
A list of which PSPs are supported by the modchip would be greak... me got the 1004. will it work ?
Some store are already selling stuff that they don't have et that they can't buy...Strange world,isn't it? Let me tell you one thing, do not sell your PSP 1.50...it may be useful

For the price and the risk of the modchip why don´t you grab a second hand 1.5 ?
While they are in the market because they´r getting more rare everyday, accidents and people stupidly upgrading.
Grabed 2 but i´ll grab more cheap 1.5´s if i find them, i don´t colect games but i do colect 1.5´s ...
Anyway i hope this Modchip comes already able for the lower voltage and all people be happy, anyway it keeps beeing a risk on the instalation not mentioning the costs of the hardware but also the costs of instalation.
Looking to ear good news soon.
HOW DO I SHOT WEB?
Will the modchip work with my PSP-1004 G1 WS259 F with Fw 2.0??? I upgradet it to 2.6 :/ ! pls help. I bought the GIGA PACK in December 2005, but it was one of the last the shop had.
should work, i think its the models that came with 2.01 and up that might have this issue. (Letter: G)
But Ialso think that this problem have been solved by UP dev team, and that there will be 2 "diff" modchips according to what psp model you have "before/after"
So there it is, the comp prob is not really a prob,
I THINK....
Epsilon Bios is FAKE ! It is prooven by countless head developers in the PSP scene! The Mod Chip may be real but the so called custom BIOS is not!
You shut up. Yesterday I believe you saw the U.P in action with the Epsilon BIOS custom firmware on it. It was 2.71 and had the capabilities of running homebrew, and also running ISO's from the memory stick, instead of going to crappy developments such as devhook and runumd. The epsilon bios makes things faster :)
I checked every part of the video, especially a friend of mine who is an expert in filmography. There is no frame change that would have the cameraman swap the PSP with a 1.50.
will this work if i got a psp they day it came out but updated only to 2.0 and never updated it again?
0okm is spelled with a zero. Not an "O"
