Just out of interest, I would like to see something along the lines of "If we can factorize 2349874395782349652395239523652352376578234653245273465 we have cracked it"... i think it would be clearer with real numbers than in terms of 64 bits... I dont think we are even certain of the alogr...

Hi, With the new swaploit, it would be nice if the second memory stick could have a menu program on it that allowed you to select other programs to load (like evo-x on the xbox). That way, we wouldnt have to either have a dummy folder on ms1 for each program, nor would we have to rename files on ms2...

i belive it involves factorzing the product of 2 large primes - thats why its impossible (read very difficult / time consuming) to reverse it... Its very easy to multiply 2 primes to make a large number Z but to find out which 2 primes multiply together to make Z involves a brute force search, and t...

... I read somewhere that Sony use the headphone remote connector to re-flash dead (ie, leaked firmware flashed) PSP's - could it be that the JTAG interface is exposed there? reading http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JTAG it looks like the JTAG interface is 4 pins - we have 6 on the remote (in addition t...

... to re-flash dead iRiver mp3 players - the page is http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverBDM. Also, Sony have NOT disabled re-flashing via jtag because they do it to repair dead PSPs. Maybe we should research the JTAG interface, and see if we can get any info about it. I believe there ...

Hi, It has been revealed elsewhere that eboot.bin is an encrypted version of boot.bin (left in by sloppy dev's or sloppy Sony). Given that we have examples of pairs of unencrypted and encrypted binaries, maybe we should look into crypto attacks on the encryption. EBoot.bin seems to start with the st...

Hi, Running cat * | strings -9 | uniq against the ripped UMD data produces quite a lot of interesting strings... for example, we get GCC: (GNU) 3.3.3+allegrex-2.2.1-psp-1.5.1.internal and host0:/usr/local/psp/devkit/module/pspnet.prx and sceKernelLoadModule() and SceParseHTTPheader_Library (on Ridge...

Hi, If you want a (small) file from a UMD iso, I cannot post it to these forums, but if you mail me at ps2dev (hat) ripnet.co.uk I can send u any file from Ridge Racer (.jap). G (I am not after warezing - i actually own the original , but downloaded the .iso as its very interesting how these things ...

I think that lines like ULJS-00001|CCCD9317C815B9F5|0001|G in umd_date.bin contain a digital signature, and not the key. Sony would be a bit dumb to put the key in plaintext. I reckon this is a number derrived from the private key and the md5 of the executable(s), which is checked by the OS before i...

Sorry oPPO - i didnt realise you had independently tested it and were trusted :) Lookin' good... g

... has anyone independently verified that this boots on a 1.0 psp? i only have 1.5 and cant check, but until someone else checks it and verifys that its actually running code, all we have is a custom image on a psp, which is default behaviour supported by Sony... i find it very hard to believe that...
