NOTE: BRICK WARNING: Currently CIPL Flashing (aka, permanent patching) only works with certain PSP models:
#PSP ROMS MODS PRO#
This will allow you to turn off your PSP totally and still have PRO installed.
#PSP ROMS MODS PATCH#
The next step, assuming you'd like your CFW to stay on when you turn off your PSP, you're going to want to permanently patch the CFW to internal memory with that CIPL Flasher file. We'll get to exactly what that means later, but check in XMB>Settings>System Settings>System Information and you should see a shiny new 6.60 PRO-B10 label in there. Disconnect your PSP and then run the 'Update' application (it has a big PRO logo on it to not confuse it with the official update). Just like before, download it, unzip it, and put the folders in the correct areas. You can grab 6.60 PRO-B10 from here (please let me know if this link dies, I will replace it!). The CFW that I am choosing for this guide seems to be the most popular and well-maintained for 6.60, and with such a small (and arguably, dying) scene, it's good to stick with the champs. If you're still following the guide, congratulations! You're almost done.
#PSP ROMS MODS UPDATE#
Click on that, follow update process, blah blah blah restart PSP and bam you're on 6.60. You should see an icon to update to 6.60. Basically if you just drag that 'PSP' folder from within the download onto the ROOT of your memory stick, you should be good.įrom there, unplug your PSP and go into Games>Memory Stick on the XMB (Cross media browser). With both of those downloads, you should follow the structure that the folders within are set up as when putting them on your memory stick. So I recommend just using the following download links: This is risky though, because in the future there might be a a higher one. IF YOU ARE ALREADY ON 6.60, DISREGARD THIS STEP.īasically you can use the built-in system updater, because since currently 6.60 is the highest OFW, this should fetch it from the internet. There are two ways to do this, and the choice is yours (haha Morrowind reference. The first thing you'll need to do, then, is to make sure you are on the highest current OFW (currently 6.60).
#PSP ROMS MODS ISO#
When you 'hack' a PSP, you're replacing or modifying the original Sony firmware (ofw) with a custom firmware variant (cfw) that allows you to do things like play homebrews and ISO game backups from your memory card. IMPORTANT FACTS: The firmware of your PSP is kind of like the operating system. Remove any UMD from the drive (thanks, 10_billion_calories!) Basically you should know whether you have a PSP Go (they have a slidey screen) or, well, a non-PSP Go. This part of the guide used to be a lot larger. The understanding that this MAY fuck up your PSP. More space = more ISOs, music, homebrew, vids, etc.
Once more unto the breach, my friends! :)Ī memory stick preferably larger than 2gb, but anything above 512m will technically work. I am not liable for any damage that this guide may cause to your PSP, although it really shouldn't cause any. Obviously, this guide is not going to encourage illegal activity of any kind, and I do not endorse illegal downloading of any kind to use on your psp. I personally have hacked three PSPs (I have no experience with the Go, but from what I hear it's not terribly different from the PSP-3000) and I do know my way around the PSP a little bit. PLEASE contact me via either comments or a PM for feedback or any extra help you might need! I am always available! :) But until then, to be safe, I'd avoid updating past 6.60 if you can (currently there is nothing past 6.60 so you should be fine). If there is another update (unlikely) I'll try and fit the guide to the new firmware. As far as my knowledge goes, 6.60 is the final official update to the PSP system, so this guide should hypothetically work til, well, the end of time. This guide is updated to the PSP Firmware version 6.60. This guide will function as an update of the previous guide, and yes, I will be copypasting some chunks of text, but it'll not be that bad. It's been a couple months since then, there have been a couple PSP firmware updates, and with the Vita just launching in the West last weekend, I figure it's a good a time as any to revisit the dear ol' PSP. COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO HACKING YOUR PSP 2.0Ī while back I wrote a pretty successful guide about hacking (or cracking, to be precise) your PSP.
