X-Flash now in v16d

Posted Nov 11, 2006 at 1:28AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Homebrew Applications Tags: MikMod, psp homebrews, X-Flash, XMB

Wasn't it just a few days ago that Art released v16b of the application, X-Flash? In fact it was just three days ago, but that seems so long ago - Art dropped by again today with a new X-Flash version, complete with several improvements.

In case there is someone reading this who is not on the same page with the rest (ergo, someone who doesn't have a full grasp of what this app does and how to use it), we suggest that you take a good look at the application's accompanying readme file. It's there for a good reason and that is for you to avoid doing something bad to your PSP. With that said, let's go to the changelog and other v16d details.

New for X-Flash v16d:

Bug fix to v16c.
Firmware detection routine was blocking firmware version 2.71 SE-B3, and possibly any SE version later than the original SE-B.
This version will block firmware other than 1.50. 2.71 SE-B, or 2.71 SE-B3.

New for X-Flash v16c:

Custom Coldboot Opening Sound (firmware version 2.71 SE)
Custom Coldboot Opening Sound with Echo Effect (firmware version 2.71 SE)
Built in Air Wrench Coldboot Opening Sound (firmware version 2.71 SE)
Delete Coldboot Opening Sound (firmware version 2.71 SE)
Apply Biult in Custom XMB Click Sound (firmware version 2.71 SE)
Apply Biult in Custom XMB Error Sound (firmware version 2.71 SE)
Allowed larger custom Gameboot Movie (619Kb Max) to support the Prince Of Persia (Blood & Claw) Gameboot Movie (firmware version 2.71 SE)
Improved Biult In Plain Black Gameboot movie by DarkStone (black movie from V16b sometimes pixelates with 2.71)
Fix to "ascii" nickname Easter Egg.
Menu editor can now be started with Select button or from the menu to use the Easter Egg (firmware version 1.50)
Implemented Real Time checking for low RAM condition caused by Mikmod loading the music module too many times in one session. This would probably never be an issue, since you would have to play the ASCII credits demo or Free Space very many times to consume all available RAM.
Fixed "Hello Nickname" welcome screen for 2.71 SE.
Various other minor fixes/enhancements.

Currently Disabled for 2.71 SE:

XMB Menu Label editor.
Firmware Version Spoofers.
Plain Black PSP About Screens (may be fixed in a later version).
Some Easter Eggs won't work because they rely on version spoofs, detailed name plate picture, etc.

Oh, and thanks to Appleseed629 and all our other friends for the tip!

This app would be great if it hadn't just half bricked my PSP.

I applied the debranded Gameboot function and it failed the safety checks so it auto-retried a few times, failing each time.

It auto-exited, and now I can't launch any homebrew from the XMB. Where the gameboot should be, the wavy line effect just keeps on going. Oh, well. Luckily I'm using SE-B so I can restore it.

I'm not blaming Art; I love his work. I'm not sure what happened.

# Same kind of brick — axelixc 2006-11-11 04:20

yah ! mine too has the silly auto-retried few time & den the next thing i know...f*cking bricked. thx to the recovery. Well again I still hoping the menu label editor to support se-b. too bad...

# maybe, — Guest 2006-11-11 04:41

maybe you ran out of space on your NAND? and the new file is bigger than original so it don't fit?

# AGAIN! — Guest 2006-11-11 06:18

I know that many of us sent in news tips for this. Is QJ THAT lazy to give them credit? I sent in a news tip, and I know other did, too. Am I going crazy, or is QJ getting much worser each day?

# Flash — Guest 2006-11-11 06:18

I recently dumped my flash with file assistant and it shows as around 20mb for se-b3. You should have plenty of space for flashing with Xflash. Mine half bricked when flashing topmenu_plugin.rco, but recovery mode is superb. I know a way to possibily restore the psp without reflashing to 1.50 in recovery. Make a folder called boot in your game270 folder(if this doesnt work rename game150 to game271, ).Put the Xflash files in the boot folder.Put xflash In the other game folder. Turn power off and enter recovery, hit "autorun program at Boot/eboot.pbp". Tell me if this works guys, this could save from reflashing.

# wow — Guest 2006-11-11 07:18

all we need is the version spoofer to work for us to play backes up ftb2 online......

# Woot! — CarXCrashXHearts 2006-11-11 07:33

# dood — Guest 2006-11-12 05:57

o ***** dood YEAH IT WORKS BUT I CANT RUN HOME BREWS IT JUST SHOES LINES AND JUST KEEPS RUNNING LIKE THAT , DO I HAVE TO DOWN GRADE TO A 1.5 TO RUN HOME BREWS?

# HELP!!! — Guest 2006-12-02 19:03

i have a problem. i bought a psp last year sometime. i had a 1.6 i believe. and i upgraded to 2.0 then 2.6. I found out about the gta homebrew and installed it. then after a while i downgraded to 1.5. i have xflash, devhook and other brews. it was all good until i found out about gameboots. i went to hackmypsp.com and downloaded some custom made boots. i followed the notepad instructions and three of them worked with the pspset. the fourth one is where it all went wrong. when i chose a brew from my memory stick the video played and froze then my psp shut off. so know im trying to find out how to fix it. i cant upgrade, downgrade, or use any of my brews (like xflash) because the gameboot comes on and freezes. I tried looking for a tiff loader on 1.5 so that i could load pspset and change it back but i dont think there is one for that version. can you please tell me how to fix it i'm all out of ideas?
