PSP homebrew Stories
Posted on Aug 13, 2008 09:28:29 AM
The Sony PSP is getting an upgrade from its homebrew developers. The focus is now on making the PSP a touch screen enabled device and calling it the iPSP. Up until now PSP homebrew developers have successfully integrated a touch screen keypad into the PSP. They have designed a special keyboard that works on the commands of fingertips and stylus. This keyboard will be available on the Internet for download soon. Apart from this keyboard you will also find additional software code, which has to be installed on your PSP to make it touch screen compatible. However, this is not an easy task and must be done very carefully. Also, it will void the warranty of the console. So, one has to try it at his/her own risk. Read the rest of this entry »

Homebrews are the juice of the PSP community. An ever-growing suite of all applications that are almost free and what’s more you have a thriving community to back you up with any technical problems you might face. Much better than some commercial software available, we must admit. There are lots and lots of such homebrew applications that can literally change the capabilities of your PSP overnight, but you should look to the very best for starters. Please do note that you must have homebrew-capable firmware on your PSP for these applications to run. Also, note that Sony doesn’t support your homebrews and you bear all risk after voiding your warranty. Read the rest of this entry »

This is a continuation of our previous posts on some of the best Homebrews for the PSP ever. Most of these applications are not functional on every firmware and you need to take care when installing them because Sony doesn’t give you a warranty if something were to happen to your PSP after using a homebrew (not that it is bound to happen, but it is just a warning) .

Homebrew is the raving rebel community that thrives to make your PSP stretch beyond its capabilities and do things that you never thought your PSP would do. Games, utility software, and a lot of other applications are coded and made underground so as to make your PSP a truly versatile animal. It is much like an open source community full of enthusiastic PSP aficionados. Read the rest of this entry »

The great thing about homebrew is it gives everyone the freedom to develop their own software, and one excellent consequence of this is the huge array of different and interesting games being produced. People seem particularly fond of porting classics, like the Game&Watch Parachute title. It is based on a Nintendo game from 1984, named parachute, and now a clever developer has brought it back to life for the PSP. The gaming concept is very simple: save the paratroopers from drowning. Game and Watch might say nothing to you, but it is in fact the predecessor to Nintendo’s Game Boy and, dare we say, one of the founders in handheld gaming. Now of course games from this mythical console can be enjoyed on the PSP, thanks to homebrew. Read the rest of this entry »

There are many numerous benefits to hacking your PSP and perhaps the best is using all the different homebrew applications that then become available. New homebrews are being released daily, and we will offer a recap of some of our favourites from the last few days. The first is PSP Maps 1.0, which essentially turns your PSP into a GPS device. The second is the unofficial adhoc messenger version 2.6, that makes communicating with friends via your PSP easier than ever. And finally, the last useful application that we’ll be detailing is PreSS v0.3, which allows you to read your RSS feeds with the PSP.

PSP is gaining popularity now-a-days among youngsters, and PSP hacking is a process we ought to know something about.
Ripping a PSP UMD
PSP fillers can be used for dumping UMD directly to the memory stick which creates an ISO-9660 compliant image so there is no need for USB port connection. There is one point to remember before playing that “No UMD” mode is to be set. This ripping process is really worth as there is no need for switching the USB DEVICE to UMD Disc and then copying the data from UMD to PC and then into the ISO folder. Read the rest of this entry »

The developer “jfig111” is releasing another version of his homebrew WiFiX 2.0. WiFiX is a portal which includes multiple functions (applications and games). It’s also possible to chat with other users via WLAN using the tool, or to listen to music. Another good thing about WiFiX is that it runs on non-homebrew capable PSPs, because it is executed over the browser. Read the rest of this entry »
