X-Flash source code |

X-Flash is a homebrew application that allows you to tweak your firmware. For example, the popular program lets you install custom fonts and pick alternate sound effects. Our last coverage was in mid-January on X-Flash v18k.(By the way, X-Flash writes to your PSP's on-board flash memory. Those of you who want to try X-Flash for the first time should read the readme completely before doing anything; applications that write to flash memory can potentially harm or brick your system if used incorrectly.)
The developer, Art, announced on the QJ.NET Forums that the source code for X-Flash has been released. Art said:
I won't be able to update X-Flash in the near future, due to work commitments. I was only planning to add support for one later DAX firmware, since the topmenu_plugin mods don't work after that. The release of X-Flash source code does not mean that I won't update it someday. It is quite likely that one day, out of nowhere, an official V19 will appear unexpectedly ;)
Art added:
I must warn PSP owners against using any derivative... how do I put it... attempted updates produced by lamers. I would find it offensive to see X-Flash updates with no real merit appearing on forums, although I expect it to happen.
X-Flash source is released for educational purposes for all the people who wanted to know how I did various things... not to encourage offspring.

@kyle: That was totally uncalled for. I agree that he was abit misguided, but that doesn't warrant at all that kind of language. If you said that on the forums you would be banned for sure.

Oh well, it's his app, he can say what he likes.

I think Art's real concern is that people will release updates that don't function properly, and somehow he will get blamed for it. Never underestimate the power of people to make false assumptions.

It's simply a matter of ease of use. Some people prefer apps that simply involve selecting an option through a menu, such as X-Flash.

also x-flash has a style of his own. this has nothing to do with function but with interfacing. its really the best ive seen for psp, and its arts style i would say. if you want to improve this, make your own app, include stuff from sourcecode, give credit, and have own interface and name.
just my 2 cents, but its right!
