i have bricked my psp

you guys always make it sound like this thing is gonna fry my psp if i copy to the mem stick... this app is awesome and solid. Unless you do something stupid, you aren\'t gonna brick your psp, and it has some excellent useful features



- disable network update to prevent accidental update.

- remove sony intro screen

- change to a different gameboot (prince of persia blood gameboot is awesome, don\'t use some stupid filesize and you\'ll be good)

- remove wave effect

- custom fonts



all changes are reversible, use it and enjoy! This along with custom firmware POC and irShell is just awesome.

Revised:



Instead, browse through QJ's other great articles that aren't potential threats to having your beloved PSP end up bricked.

Or if the methods used to produce the ICON1.pmf is clearly described and reproducible by many independent persons without illegal methods then it should be fine. Else I'd consider this illegal hombrew.

Then don't post it on your front page, and I won't post it on your site. There are about two stories of bricked PSP units

done wth my program that I find believeable at all.



I have never asked for any of my programs to be front paged.

It is fine if you chose to do so,

but if you start out your article by shooting down my hard work, don't expect to be updated with anything I produce in future.

Art.

you can brick your psp with x-flash if you have custom firmware...

"1.50 cant even run games that require 2.00, so no"



Umm yea 1.5 can play games up to 2.71, although i think game now only require 2.6 but i may be wrong.

DevHook ftw.

I read the article several times and didn't see any sort of negative connotation in it. Was it worded poorly? Maybe - but there was no "attack" intended in the post. If it came off as negative (as it obviously did to some, including Art), it was not meant to be so, and was misinterpretted .

I have used xflash, theme psp, and psp personalize COUNTLESS times, used custom firmwares (atleast 5 different ones) AND downgraded and upgrading my psp to 1.0 and back to 1.5 again, and never bricked my psp. Infact, i've never even had to use the recovery console built into the custom firmware because of xflash or themepsp.



Next time you use something, read the instructions, Jeff Richardson. Don't come crying to us just because your son couldn't take a few seconds to read a readme.

I have used Xflash and ThemePSP many times and would say they are some of the most useful and safe applications made for the psp. The only way you can brick your psp with this is by turning the power off during a flash or using a bad gameboot. But even then you'd have to be trying to brick your psp because flashing takes seconds. I have bricked my psp once with themepsp (because of file corruption) but thanks to custom firmware i updated to 2.0 and downgraded to 1.5 again.If you are still worried about using this just install custom firmware first.



Also #5 meant that the version spoof is only to play games that require below 2.0 on a 1.5. i.e. 1.51 and 1.52 games.
