Alpha2004 Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 I tried loading Soukyuu no Fafner off my memory stick using 2.5b. It froze at the last step of the loader... I left it for a few minutes before switching it off. When I turned it back on, the PSP couldn't detect the memory stick any more.That's right. My 1gb, $150 memory stick is fried :cry: Hopefully its still covered under warranty; I'll find out tomorrow. But let this be a warning to all-- if you aren't prepared to have damaged hardware, don't use homebrew. 586199613[/snapback] umm format the mem stick inside the psp. worked for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingbob Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 We Are Back! After a 2 hour and 18 minute long retreat from the PSP scene, WAB has returned, rested and ready to rock. Perhaps it was a joke or they were serious, but coming out of their group huddle they marched back with a brand new bag. This time they have given the secret for a downgrader on 1.51 and 1.52 firmwares. In the readme they state this:?^_^ Kernel Flash device "lflash0:0,0" "lflash0:0,1" "lflash0:0,2" "lflash0:0,3" "fatfmt" "flash0:" "flash1:" "flashfat2:" "flashfat3:" //Updater Version Checker release:1.00:.build:89,0,3,1,0:root@psp-vsh system:17756@release_103a,0x01000300: vsh:p4231@updater_for_day1,v11488@updater_for_day1,20050304: //? They go on to say about the halting in the PSP scene: ?We just make a little halt about psp releasing "in progress" stuff to public or friends... Sorry....? The excerpt was taken from a readme with the file WAB_DATA.ELF_UPDATER_1.50_DECRYPTED.elf. Note: This file will NOT downgrade your firmware, it's for developers to use who wish to examine this as a starting point for downgrading. Yay!

Kupo-Cheer Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Wish they'd hurry up with the downgrader. Or better yet just find a way to make it work with later firmware versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbob Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 I don't think they are working on a downgrader personally. They mentioned it was a hint on a way to start working on one, didn't sound like they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellBender Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 have you tried formatting? i'm sure it's fine...please let us know. no problems at all here though, but i don't use wabs stuff, i just use the regular loader. 586201816[/snapback] Yeah, I have tried formatting. When I insert the memory stick into my PSP, the orange light continually blinks. When I go to format the memory stick from inside the PSP, it says that there's no memory stick inserted. When I hook it up to USB and try to go to I: (or format it) it tells me to insert a disk into the drive. I've tried it in a standalone card reader and it isn't detected there either. Major pain in the ass... but you can bet that the first thing I'll do when I get the replacement is download homebrew again ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Mystic MVC Posted July 14, 2005 MVC Share Posted July 14, 2005 If there is anybody here who can help me out, I'm having a few problems putting more than 1 game on my 512mb stick. At the moment Brochaos and I have been trying to hookup getting it done but we haven't been able to on msn (still on atm and will be tomorrow night and the night after that :D), so if anybody else has some free time pm me or something.

+Mystic MVC Posted July 14, 2005 MVC Share Posted July 14, 2005 Well either way alpha because I don't want to mses with the 2.5d method (the newest one) and I haven't manually tried using the hex edit way either.

Alpha2004 Posted July 14, 2005 Author Share Posted July 14, 2005 can someone link me to a tutorial on removing the broken icons from the menu? 586213332[/snapback] http://www.psp-spot.com/forums/index.php?s...=901&hl=corrupt this works! very cool, but you don't have to follow the rules as closely.1) folders can be named anything you want (capital letters, lower case letters can be mixed) but can be no longer than 5 letters long. 2) for the main folder, there must be 32 characters. the folder name can be as long as you want it, but you must fill the remaining space with underscores "_" and a "1" at the end. examples: PSPer__________________________1 FTPD___________________________1 Vnc____________________________1 fa_____________________________1 3) for the % folder, there must be 9 characters. again, you can use any folder name you wish but you must fill the remaining space in with underscores "_" and a "~1%" at the end. examples: PSPer_~1% FTPD__~1% Vnc___~1% fa____~1% and i tried running all my programs and so far everything appears to be running fine after just renaming them!

BroChaos Veteran Posted July 14, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 14, 2005 i hate the renaming crap, it doens't work with every program... my method: drap all folders with a "%" in them off of your memory stick, and then copy them back. now all corrupted will be at the bottom.

I know loaders have helped me out because know I don't have to carry around 2 of my games (the 3rd one won't fit on my MS). Now I don't have to worry about losing discs:D. For those who do use them for piracy well that's disapointing but some people were going to use loaders for piracy no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Clark- Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 so you can backup UMDs now? do the loaders rip the UMD data? or is this stuff you find on an illegal site? :no: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
