Custom Firmware 1.62 IE A Update2

Posted Apr 14, 2007 at 3:39AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Homebrew Applications Tags: becus25, Custom Firmware, Sony

Homebrew developer becus25's custom firmware wouldn't be called IE (as in "increasing edition") if it doesn't get updated regularly, right? Right. So with that said, let us all welcome Custom firmware 1.62 IE A Update2. And we're telling you now, this is way better than the first update.

According to the coder, the bugs and issues present in the past release had already been isolated, and Update 2 should cause no more bricks. He also notes that in the very unlikely event that you do brick your PlayStation Portable (PSP) unit, all you have to do is use the recovery function. However, just be sure that you have either downgraded or have the official update of Sony in "ms0:/psp/game/ierecovery".

We've already posted Custom firmware 1.62 IE A's general functions and recovery functions from our last report so don't forget to read that first. The only thing added (which is very important mind you), is the addition of better security and the flasher.

Before you use this application, be sure to check the Readme file as well as the To Install file that comes with the download. It never hurts to be doubly sure, you know?

why would u risk bricking your PSP installing a custom firmware that lacks all the features that 3.10 OE-A has. if your brave enough to install a custom firmware, might as well be 3.10 OE-A or any other OE-A. OE-A has the recovery feature plus many more, and has the ability to emulate PSX games.

So why???? create this custom firmware.

Dark Alex has got custom firmwares covered, you might as well spend your time on creating something else.

PS. no offence

# sounded rather offensive to me — Guest 2007-04-14 05:16

I use and love 3.03 OE-C, but you gotta give becus credit for trying. Some of the things he's got looks interesting so I'd keep my eye on this one.

A little friendly competition never hurt anyone did it?

# Update 2 should cause no more bricks — Guest 2007-04-14 05:22

Well i must admit , though im happy theres some more CFW, I must admit im completely turned off by this line...

Update 2 should cause no more bricks.

Something to keep an eye on though. Im sure not even the best devs have a perfect track record. Keep up the hard work .

# good job — Guest 2007-04-14 05:26

it isn't a waist of time for anyone to learn and to post their results. as of right now, it may or may not be as good as OE but it is better than nothing. what would happen if A retired and there wasn't anybody working on custom firmwares? we would be without while people tried to learn the ropes. now, we are not out as long because we have somebody working on it already. you should never discourage somebody trying to do something good.

# 3.30 OE — Guest 2007-04-14 06:01

With 3.30 OE around the corner (hopefully) I see no reason for anyone to use this. I don't want to discourage homebrew devs, but this seems pretty pointless to me.

# haha, — Guest 2007-04-14 06:01

laugh, wow, how about not, OE make this looks so bad its not funny, cant wait for 3.30 OE , :)

# 2 funny — Guest 2007-04-14 06:08

According to the coder, the bugs and issues present in the past release had already been isolated, and Update 2 should cause no more bricks.

My 2 tickets SHOULD win powerball

# LOL — Guest 2007-04-14 06:51

NO BODY USES THIS *****!

# Barely anyone is going to use this. — Guest 2007-04-14 07:00

Sorry for sounding ignorant but it's true. Stop trying. People are always going to use DAX's official versions. You've wasted your time.

# Good Job! — Guest 2007-04-14 07:03

Why the hell are some of you bashing on this guy's custom firmware? I'd bet that most if not any of you people bashing on the guy, could even work with or write your own custom firmware. This community makes me sick some times. "Or maybe it's just these useless comments"

And before you bashers, think about writing back to try and insult me. Forget it, I wont waste anymore time on it.

Good Job becus25 nice work, and keep it up.

# ... — Guest 2007-04-14 07:21

the reason OE and SE firmwares are more popular is because 1. They are very stable and reliable 2. They boast many features that other custom firmwares don't have and 3. They are made by Dark_AleX who has already made himself well known in the PSP homebrew scene

# 12th — Guest 2007-04-14 07:35

12TH POST! OMG! Good wo72k on this dude. Nice job. Maybe someday you'll be big and won't get these fat@$$ b1tch1ng comments

# : '( — Guest 2007-04-14 07:37

Thats Mean, Think Of All The Effort That Guys Putting In, Show Some Respect, Bah, Youth of Today..

# yep — Guest 2007-04-14 07:58

exactly. I'd love to see these c*ck suckers try and make a custom firmware.

Well done becus

# i respect the developer.. — Guest 2007-04-14 08:06

but D_A's firmware pretty much makes this obsolete, just as everyone else said. but good job for adding to the community

# a new — Guest 2007-04-14 08:07

update:D:D

# seems ppl do have a chance of bricking — Guest 2007-04-14 08:58

cuz ppl can birck with this....im guessin ppl will find this guid very useful..it gives easy pointers to easy money....mainly for U.S resident but anyone can look at it....here............http://z4.invisionfree.com/LankanCore/index.php?showtopic+47

# D_A already did it — Guest 2007-04-14 09:13

There was a South Park episode which focuses on the fact that all the storylines that can be done were already done by Simpsons.. but better.

Custom Firmware has been done by D_A so the smart money says that if you can't beat them, join them. Not too many people can do custom firmware so if they joined forces it could only benefit the community.

# Pics/Vid? — .A.J. 2007-04-14 09:18

I already use D.A.'s custom FW 3.10OE-A because it works with my PS3 but I'd love to see this in action.

I won't be switching to this but I think that anyone who can make a custom FW that works is talented. On top of that, anyone who makes custom programs and is nice enough to share them for free is also quite generous. Telling a talented, generous programmer that he is wasting his time is unnecessary. The experience alone is worth the effort.

Good stuff man, I hope you keep trying and aren't deterred by the useless critical comments left here. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing it.

# cf — Guest 2007-04-14 10:14

stop ******* bashing this guy. this is a great pience of ustom firmware while i might not use it yet it doesnt mean that its good..

this is like apple and microsoft....microsoft is more popular and better than apple but doesnt mean that apple doesnt have any good features. give credit to the guy...and thank him for his contribution to the hombrew community.

# Jews smell like nappy-headed hoe´s anus — Guest 2007-04-14 10:41

I can´t believe how jewish some of you behave here. You don´t have tom give him credit but at least don´t blame him for creating this CFW.

So, be cool and not jewish!

# hell yeah — Guest 2007-04-14 10:52

"microsoft is more popular and better than apple"

only thing apple need to perfect is blue screen of death every two fecking seconds...

you sir are a tw@t

# Retard — Guest 2007-04-14 10:55

Better a Jew than American.

Everyone knows Jews have more money than Americans...

# asdasd — Guest 2007-04-14 11:09

you retards should get something right, they are not doind this for your lazy ass or to make you pleased, they are doing this because they like to code, its a hobby, what would be the point of "joining forces"? You lazy bastards would get something faster cuz your little geek ass can't wait for for the new cfw? Go suck a c*ck....

# agreed — Guest 2007-04-14 11:15

I agree with you man. I certainly wouldn't risk bricking for a less impressive custom firmware, especially with all the signs pointing to DA releasing an update in the coming weeks or even days.

# Why — Guest 2007-04-14 11:20

Why is everybody making fun of me?!!? WAAAAHHHH

# Arrrrrrr Matey... — Guest 2007-04-14 11:35

I agree with you, let's all be PIRATES and download PSX games which we would normally pay for!

ARRRRRRRRR MATEY.

And no one be telling me they only download the games they already have the real psx games for... only about 5% do...

# Maybe cause.. — Guest 2007-04-14 11:43

This supports more homebrew / is more stable with running homebrew then dax's with dax's i always have to run 1.5 kernel anyway cause 3.03 kernel is pretty *****ed up.

# i dont care!!! — Guest 2007-04-14 12:32

First of all i dont do this for u lazy ass ppl!!!i do this because im learning how to code and i picked the psp because it seemed more interesting to me than the DS,u guys are making me look like a dumb or that im competing against dark alex,i respect others ppl work:its like when we had devhook and dark alex came with his custom firmware,what did u guys said???answer me that.anyways i do this for fun and thanks to the ppl that appreciate my work.thanks

# coder from elswhere... — Guest 2007-04-14 13:01

Keep up the good work m8.

ignore the comments from the ass holes.

ppl like this are not unique to the psp scene, they make up a vast community of users that follow the whole coding community in total no matter what platform.

# WHY?????????????????? — Guest 2007-04-14 13:31

u gotta rate dis guy, hes totaly rite, y da ***** wud u use dis retared app dat wud brik ur psp, wen u can use DA's version. n da guy kept it sweet with "no offence" lol!!!!!!!!!!!

# but — Guest 2007-04-14 14:11

i'll wait for a few more updates before i risk it

# wiiii — Guest 2007-04-14 15:16

hi who want to download psx games and psp umd rip and full i can i know where you want to know ask me email me

# You know they're hate only — Guest 2007-04-14 16:20

Because they cannot do it themselves. Props to the coder! I want to learn to do this actually. But, I don't know where to start.

# if you hadnt noticed... — Guest 2007-04-14 17:02

blue screen of death doesnt happen on win2000 and up... and youve got anything worse than 2000 its probably not worth calling a computer lol...

btw statistics do show that microsoft is far more popular than apple anyway. i agree that apple does have some good features tho.

# um...try reading the post — Guest 2007-04-14 18:55

only thing APPLE need to perfect is blue screen of death every two fecking seconds...

last time i looked win2000 was micro$oft, not apple imac

# yeah right — Guest 2007-04-14 18:59

its not even him idiot.

dont you think becus would be registered?

some people are so lame they nothing better to do.

# I might update in the next version — Guest 2007-04-14 19:25

If I dont have to use devhook with this to play games i may just ... Downdate

# Your Ingornorant — Guest 2007-04-14 19:51

DAX's official versions.

what? nothing official about his firmware. Are you saying that custom means Dark_AleX made it? you ignoroant piece of *****

I agree, DAX's is better. But you dont have to be a ***** about it.

# dont we all — Guest 2007-04-14 19:52

Hate this sign of jealousy;

dont we all wish we could do this? well i do. But i dont know where to start. and dont have the patience.

# My password on yahoo: goebbels — Guest 2007-04-14 21:42

Jews have more money than the average american because of several reasons.

1. We have plenty of never-working races calling themselves americans like Hispanics, Negros and the Kennedys

2. Jews would kill their own parents when its profitable for them. They cheat on everyone. It´s like saying a guy who obviously uses cheats in videogames is the best player around. He isn´t. He is just a damn spoilsport and an a55hole. So are jews

# bless you my son — Guest 2007-04-14 21:59

jesus loves you. come get a hug big boy.

# Why??? — Guest 2007-04-14 23:15

why would u risk bricking your PSP installing a custom firmware that lacks all the features that 3.10 OE-A has.

Why do people use linux? or BSD?

It's because they want to and it works.

# . — Guest 2007-04-14 23:45

I dunno how old you guys are, but you probably shouldn't have watched Borat. You probably would have never of thought about the Jewish religion if it wasn't for that film.

Meanwhile, on subject. Good on you man...just ignore all the crap your hearing from the comments. Its a good firmware (tested it), and i think, if you try even more, you will make yourself big in this community. Well done Becus!

# Why they bash it — Guest 2007-04-14 23:46

Because the old ones caused bricks, and this one "shouldn't..."

# "the Kennedys" — Guest 2007-04-14 23:48

"the Kennedys" AHAHAHHAHAHAHA no, they all work.

# . — Guest 2007-04-14 23:51

If you are serious in starting to program, then can i reccommend this book:

Absoulute Beginers Guide to C - By Greg Perry

Excellent for begginers and tels you everything from the begining ;)

# omg — Guest 2007-04-15 01:51

# Cool — Guest 2007-04-15 04:38

This firmwares awsome

# Stolen — Guest 2007-04-15 05:23

Stolen, Stolen! how could he steal this from dark alex the only possible way of stealing this from dark alex would be to take DA's source code without his permission but I dont think hes done that so whut your fecking trup you miserable fecking noob.

# prejudice ass — Guest 2007-04-15 06:28

Thanks. I'm a jewish american. Yes I am thrifty. I am not a steriotype though, so sit n spin b!tch.

# How? — Guest 2007-04-15 06:56
