+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted July 25, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted July 25, 2010 ..........Half Byte Loader enables an incredible amount of fantastic homebrew applications to be played on any PSP device including the Go and the 3000 without any scary firmware hacks which may restrict the retail games you can buy and play. The only significant things this hack can't achieve is the running of UMD backups and PS1 ISOs. Most other major uses of PSP homebrew are now covered, personally I'm happy with that level of compromise as it keeps away the pirates yet still lets me run nearly all the stuff I'd ever want to anyway. This "hack" is in "usermode" so there's absolutely no way of it bricking your PSP and it also is running completely off your memory stick/PSP GO memory, so its easily removed. Compatibility is increasing all the time but for me the recent R95 release really was when this thing turned the corner. Now its actually more likely that your chosen homebrew will work. .............. Source: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=401927 Noticed this awesome guide on GAF. So you trade piracy for homebrew/emulation but get to use latest PSP updates? That's what everyone running CFW wanted right? :p Either way homebrew on PSPGo is a nice step.

Toxn Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Fix the link :p HBL doesnt work with all homebrew apps. If the app requires kernel access it will not work. Another note is if you have 6.30 you cannot use HBL since it fixed the exploit that was needed. http://wololo.net/wagic/hbl/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
