» This won't work
Even if this guy gets this to work how many people are going to throw away their warranty just to dual boot? I mean sure we are screwing over our warranty with homebrew but as long as it doesn't brick our psp's then we can do it and Sony will never know, but this is hardware hacking. There is no way to cover this up. Good luck though, but majority of people will not benefit from this.

Well, like I said, there could be hardware hacks resulting from this in the future, but right now, it's all speculative.

Let's see; a small NAND chip under you batery, a little button to push when you boot to 1.50 firmware, and you release the button too boot in 3.0 and play some PS1 games, let's see...then you have like 70% of consoles/handhelds available ON 14 CENTIMETERS! This is great.

Good idea but it would have taken alot of time and alot of money, but i dont think it would have worked but then again im not that good with chips and syscals and that stuff.
Would you spend about £800 on something that you dont even no if it would work or not. Sorry to be annoying.

» Warranty? I guess latecomers still have 'em
I bought mine the day they were released in N. America and now it is over 13 months old. No warranty anymore so no worries. It is all gravy from here. I hope this Firmware project gets consumable soon. I'd be willing to dual-boot firmwares.

» ignore those idiots #5 & #6
good work man !
I will love to have that mod on my PSP
it's the only way to keep homebrew alive ( cheap too ) so far , since most homebrew users are considering of getting another PSP for the new features and games .
uhm beside there are also retards who cant do anything by themselves ,but crying so f|_|cking loud
ha ha ha , not everybody are the same lol
PS: PSPHACKS are the ones who giving bs stuff that brick your PSP , not here ,you idiots ( they have some superFirmware flying around there , you should try it instead of bs-tting here)

@14 When I bought my PSP (two days after the NSTC release) I bought a one year warranty. I get the Sony warranty and an extra one year warranty from Circuit City.

This is awesome. My PSP might actually be worth the money I have spent if I could switch between 1.0 and 3.0 (or whatever firmware is out)

This modification could provide developers a handy method to hardmodify PSPs firmwary without being afraid of bricking their device, so we all could benefit from this

» Yippie!!!
This could open the flood gates. It could also put the final nail in the coffin for sony. Once the process is figured out and everything gets redisgned, shrunk down, cleaned up. this could be the begginings of the psp mod chip era. customs firmware similar to ps2's toxic os. Unlocking all features for all to use. sony couldnt beat the modchip market on the ps2. and I highly doubt they will on the psp. The only thing left now is a hardware mod to add another analog stick to the other side of the psp!!

ok, i dont know much about psp hardware/firmware and whatnot, but does it have a BIOS lieka computer? if that is possible then im sure ardware hacks are in the bag, other than that this looks very promising, like #14 my warranty is just as void as his is, *first day :)* , i will try this out if i ever learn any technical skills. but anyways keep up the hard work!!!

Isn't it just easier to have a socket for the flash under the battery that you can replace? In that case you'll just need another identical flash that you can replace the one in the socket with... But I can be wrong tho...

» omg omg omg omg omg omg!!!
every JUMP THIS UP!!!! THIS IS AMAZING!!! This could lead to EASILY making cutom firmware, since all we woudl have to do is put the custom FW on that external chip, the PSP doesnt load, try fixing it! =) until we can get a custom firmware that will let you choose from 2 flash cghips and be like "FW 1.5 or Latest FW?" and then find place for the second chip inside the PSP and close it back up and BAM!!
And also, this coudl lead to the unbrickable PSP, if you brick the flash chip, load the other, and reflash ti soemthing, this is BEAUTZIFUL!!
I CANT WAIT TO SEE ADVANCEMENTS IN THSI PROJECT!!

» At last
i didnt quite understand the sucess rate...is it 50% of the time the FW will boot upp or is it 50% you will permanently destroy your psp? (assuming you make the mot 100% right)
And say you have FW 2.5, will you be able to boot up 1.5 or just the same or higher version?
