(Another) Info update for PSP upgrading and downgrading

Posted Feb 11, 2007 at 7:46AM EST by QJ Staff

PSP icon - Image 1If you guys have been following Fanjita and the Noobz team's details on their Flash Cleaner idea, do keep reading - up ahead is an update. Don't know what we're talking about? Here's a rundown:

The Flash Cleaner program they're developing is supposed to help fix the "8001001C when starting ipl_update.prx" error code that sometimes pops up for PSPs after repeated cycles of upgrading and downgrading. According to them, this error was caused by corrupted data in the PSP's memory stick.

Getting back to the report, here are their details on the error cause:

It seems that if you have a memory stick with corrupted data on it, then it can give the 8001001C error mentioned in the previous article, when you try to run the downgrader.  Fixing the corrupted data fixed the problem.

The moral of this story is that it is best to run any downgrader on a totally clean memory stick - format the stick on your PSP before loading on the necessary files.  And if you are having problems running the downgrader, try using a disk corruption fixer (like ChkDsk or the disk repair tools in Windows) on the memory stick, as it may fix it.


There you have it - a relatively simple solution for the problem. We'll let you know in case they turn out new info into their latest research project.

what should i keep if i've never had any 32MB ;) although it's not that hard to backup any stick and format it before downgrading.

I've upgraded and down graded my original psp over ONE THOUSAND TIMES and no ill effects on mine. I mean I've been at every downgradeable firmware and then the custom ones and the couple hundred bricks (thank god for D_A oe series) from trying to do stuff within the flash itself or installing too many modules. HAR HAR. Yeah 1000 or so flashes to the firmware. I remember aloooong time ago that it was said that any PSP would be dead after 84 flashes. Who were they trying to kid back then? My PSP's firmware changes so much I think its schizophrenic! Wait he this so too. So do I.

I'm just wondering, will the FW 3.10 downgrader use the GTA exploit when the downgrader comes out or has sony patched that? I am so desperate for the downgrader.

Schizophrenics don't have multiple personalities.

People with MPD (multiple personality disorder) do.

My younglings, be calm with yourselves and your small insignificant PSP's. One day you will all realize that Mr. AleX never was; his fictional existance in short was for Sony's benefit and theirs alone. It was created by Sony to exploit the many dimensions of the PSP. The fictional character Dark_AleX and all its attributes were created for pure advertisment. Sony created firmwares and Dark_AleX for their own ambitious reasons; some being that they wanted little preteen children to mass themselves around the world of PSP, to sell, to obsess, to usurp, and assume they have overwhelming control around the technical language of cryptography. You've all been dooped, Mr. AleX has never been. Even the undiluted platinum mod chip was created by Sony themselves. It is all under thier control. You have all lost my dear mentally defective simpletons. Licensures or not, Sony only cares about one thing... Sales. Which you have all so ingnorantly helped improve.



It has been fun my younglings, do keep in touch. You are all very very very special...

probably someone who upgraded to 3.10 :D



nitpick: it's duped. and if UP was created by sony, then why would they go to the trouble of creating two (2) new motherboards for the psp? trying to throw people off track? i don't think so. go find something useful to do with your time.

Why does it matter if you're giving money to sony for a product to obsess over.... There's a reason one would obsess over it.. because it's worth it. There's a reason someone would pay 200 dollors or more to obsess over it.. because it's worth it. Why in the ***** not feed major corperations as long as it gets the enjoyment flowing through a small insignificant device. Lol also, what's wrong with caring about sales? are they supposed to be "tr00" to the almighty gaming lord and just care about making something fun with like no profit? Nobody is stupid enough to know that the world runs on money in all manners possible.
