[Flexmaster Frag]

On this japanese site you will find a tool for dumping the 1.5 firmware to the MS:

Hopefully when compared to the 1.00 firmware, exploits will be made easier.

saw the news a little while ago. to be honest, i'm scared of using that app right now since i want success stories from the ginnea pigs first tongue.gif.

Haha, well consider me one.  I tried it earlier today and it worked like a charm ... if anyone wants 1.00 or 1.50 firmware just holler.

i'm predicting that soon enought, a firmware flasher will exist to flash US PSP's with the JAP 1.0 firmware or a hacked US firmware to make direct-booting from the memory stick possible.

Yeah, this seems like the ultimate goal now... but would it really be that hard to make a flasher if the mobo is not write protected?

the thing is, before releasing something as delacate as this, it's important to make sure it works correctly or a lot of PSP owners will end up with a very expensive paperweight.

So true man.  I've seen so much stuff released here on the scene that's screwed ppl's stuff up because of inadequate testing.  I just hope they figure this out soon.... so many "releases" waiting to be played

The problem is that the 1.0 dump is incomplete. Current dumpers cannot access the critical hidden files found on the bootstrap section of the flash.  People have tried flashing this 1.0 dump on their 1.5 and ended up with a brick.
