The Illuminati exploit (on dl.qj.net) has been downloaded around 4,000+ times. Lumines sales are reaching stellar marks with a 14,000% increase on Amazon. And right about now, everyone's just sitting, waiting, and wishing for that downgrader. Seems like we should turn our eyes to the other side of the planet for a softdown for PSP FW 3.50 though. Or do we? |

It could be fake, In that video, The girl asked: "why don't you use a higher pixel camera?", the guy replied:"I don't wanna use a higher pixel camera because other people would really understand what I am doing." (that means he wanna trick the buyer).

» the special battery?
If I remember correctly that is the special battery you can see that by the yellow glint..... as for the memory stick part I read something somewhere about there being a "jumper battery to get the unbricker working and then there is a normal memory stick that has the firmware on it
well that's my 2 cents and a half

Please read this, you will be excited. When you click this link, http://www.cashcrate.com/192904 you will sign up for a website that pays you 2 - 45$ (PER) to do surveys, sign up for trial offers, and test products.
Companies such as ebay pay cashcrate to have people try their offers, and when you complete an offer, cashcrate simply passes the money onto you. By spending an average of 3-4 hours a week on cascrate,
I have made 472$ in April, 412$ in May, and 271$ (SO FAR) in June. You get paid in real checks from "KINGSIDE MEDIA" every month that you earn 10 dollars or more. It may seem too good to be true,
but I assure you it IS true. Also, with their referral program, you can refer people by sending them your link (you get when you sign up) and for every buck they earn, you get 20 cents also! (Think how much money you can make if you have 100 people making five bucks a day)

Most of the time you're asked to do this without any compensation, what we do is take the money companies give us for YOUR participation, and give you back up to 75% of it!"
There are alot of websites like this, I have tried almost all of them and this really is the best, and legit one.In addition there is a new UK section opened with more then $200 worth of free offers!

» What?
How does that make any sense though?
The video doesn't cut out, so it's not like there was editing involved.
Even if it WAS a hoax, and that was the problem, it's not hard to make the PSP read something from the memory stick to make it appear as flashing, even if it's not doing anything.

That doesn't make sense either. You don't even KNOW if they put a memory stick in.
He put a battery in, and it OBVIOUSLY did something, because the PSP appears to have went into service mode, or something of the sort.
If it's false, good on you, but it still doesn't mean anything.

» Not Fake.
Each stick has its own unique serial number and when its placed in the PSP, along with a Certain voltage battery will flash the PSP back to whatever version is on the stick. much like the Recovery menu on OE firmwares.
These sticks are not write-able, you cannot change any of the data on them they are read only which is why it was only flashed back to 2.71.
Now back to the serial number, if the camera managed to pick up the serial number and sony saw this, they could easily track it down with legal threats and so on and then the person would be, well, *****ed.

I once replied to someone in the forums about how the PSP checks the memory stick for a file on start up because it blinked too long just to detect that it was there. I knew it had to be looking for a certain file, I just never knew which one. And I still don't. Someone needs to hook up a cable between the card reader on the PSP and a serial port and look to see what it is requesting...

Some people that post on here aren't really smart. Why on earth would they be hiding the memstick's light? It's obvious they were hiding information that was being shown on the psp's screen. Information that could lead to a program being written to downgrade the psp easily just like they're doing and therefore means bad business for them?
If they were hiding the memstick's light, they coulda easily done that without leaving our more than half of the psp's screen!

» could possibly, maybe, sorta, be real
I was studying it.
and it does look pretty legit.
I think they may have set up the psp before hand, so it doesn't need to go through the whole initial boot process just to save time.
but they do switch memory sticks early on. and after they switch batteries they remove the battery in general.
my theory behind all of it:
The memory stick switched contains the needed firmware files.
The battery is just a modified sony battery. with the positive end switched to connect to the third input.
The power cable is connected because the third connection can only boot the psp. into a sort of recovery/safe mode. The cable is needed to power the screen.
The battery is removed upon startup because the charger cable only charges the regular positive connection, but doesn't stop flow of the secondary positive connection being used, so the power cable and the battery are now both powering the nand. this could somehow mess up the writing process of the firmware, so the battery is only used to "jump start" the psp. but once the psp is going the charger cabel is all the power needed.
Once started the psp is in this "recovery" mode where you perform diagnostic tests to see if everything is working(recognizes button inputs, read/write to the MS/usb connection) and, if needed, write to the flash. which is what they do.
I'm not sure why he doesn't want the left of the psp shown. They don't jsut not show the left of the psp, but a majority of the screen. I think the psp may displ;ay things about that specific psp. Mac address and serial number. maybe he's afraid sony could possibly find him based on this information, or if he sells it to a customer, findthat customer and lead back to him. it could just be a paranoid thing.
I don't think it has anything to do with the MS light. if he was using a homebrew app to fake it, he could of probably easily loaded a useless file into the memory, or wrote some useless file to the stick in a background process to make it look relistic.
I think this actual diagnostic mode is actually on all psps. it would be easier to diagnos a problem from the actual unit than using the serial port, or usb connection on a ocmputer. Plus if one of those things is broken they can't run any tests at all. this mode has to be present on all psps to check things like temperature, button responses, make sure no dead spots are in the analog movement. whether the charger cable is recognized and tons of other things. something a pc can't do. A lot of devices have a thing like this. To see what I'm talking about turn off your ipod completely. and when you turn it on again hold down the menu, and rewind button. it'll boot into diagnostic mode. Most devices carry this. the psps is just a little harder to get to apparently.
as far as I'm concerned this seems plausible.

» another thought
i just thought of somthing. when he turns the psp back on it looks like he holds down L and maybe triangle. maybe the psp has two internal flashes and wehn he held down L it booted 2.71 and holding triangle booted the homebrew application that looked like it was flashing the psp. there could be many possibilities that this is fake and there can be many possibilties that this is real.

usually to get into a diagnostic mode you need to hold down a sertain button combinaiton.
this prevetns anyone that doesn't know the combination from entering this mode.
and in the case with the psp, anyone who gets ahold of the battery that doesn't know it's purpose will probably disregard it hen they try to power their psp with it. unless you know the purpose of the battery you would never think to find a way ot actually use it. Sony doesn't want people to access this mode. but at the sme time don't want to make it a pain for them to access it. so a simple button combination fares just as well.

» Service mode
Yes this could be quite feasable. I agree here that the service mode does actually exist on the PSP and Sony would be the first to express their interest in preventing the public on knowing about this considering the whole custom firmware battle. My only question is that a tool like this would not be available to the general public, if anything i would be expecting a Playstation repair centre to only have something like this. Definatley interesting how this guy got the unbricking package.

if that's true then it is a fake.
I had come up with my own fake theory aswell, but after typing up how it could be real I didn't fee like getting into it.
basically, in short.
old custom firmware.
psp originally automatically boots into dechook emulating a later firmware, that has been changed to appear as 3.50
turn the system off. play with the battery to make it look like your doing something, restart the psp, and holding down those buttons auto launches a homebrew made to look like the screen showed.
don't show left of psp because the MS light WILL be flashing. if it was actually running a service mode from the psp itself the MS will not need to flash unless writing the firmware. which it would not need to do at the beginning.
so in short, that was my second idea. I just didn't feel like typing it out.
but this whole mac address placement thing pretty much solidifies it as fake.
I didn't know about that since I never used 3.50
