PSP: The PSP Slim is nigh! Homebrew scene hits the ground running!
What's on every PSP owner's mind right now? It's the PSP Slim and Lite. And believe us when we tell you, this week isn't very "slim" on the news side of things. It's actually pretty "phat" with a chock full of good news. Now whether you're Lite-toting or Phat-equipped, we're all still united under the one big community that is homebrew, and at the end of the day, this is what we hold close to our hearts.
We first start with news from just the other day: turns out that the PSP Slim's firmware 3.60 has already been dumped (pardon the toilet humor, but just in case you didn't know, that's really what it's called). Yep, it's just been extracted from the flash0 directory of the Slim and it's been done by none other than Mathieulh, with the help of - lo and behold! - Dark AleX.
As of writing, Mathlieuh hasn't revealed the specific procedure of how he was able to pull this feat off, but if this is any consolation, the important point here is that he's proven that hacking the PSP Slim is possible.
What makes this bit of news even more exciting is the prospect of Dark AleX finally going out of retirement. Especially after Fanjita announced of his own resignation just last week, DAX's return couldn't have come at a better time! But has he returned, really? Well, Mathlieuh did mention that DAX helped him out but Math also emphasized that this does not automatically mean that DAX is officially back in the scene.
Aww snap. Regardless, it's still good news. The PSP Slim hasn't been officially released in all regions yet, and already, the homebrew scene is picking up!

Another homebrew household name has gotten back into the scene as well, care of the PSP Slim. 0okm has dropped some rather revealing details about the new board that comes with the Slim. So, without further ado: World, say hello to TA-085! Here's the lowdown:
PCB Ver. : TA-085
CPU : CXD29758GG
Media Engine : CXD5029
Details as to how much memory and where it's embedded is difficult to determine, despite it being no secret that 4 Mebibytes (mega binary bytes) of DRAM are also embedded in former PSP systems, such as TA-082s. The Media Engine chip, specifications unknown as of press time, had the chip ID CXD5029 printed on its surface though.
Where will this lead us? Well, knowing is half the battle! With the Slim's FW dumped and the board identified, the prospect of getting a downgrader and/or custom firmware is just too good to be true!

On to other matters, you guys might want to take heed: the Pandora's Battery doesn't seem to be working as it should be on the PSP Slim and Lite. Popular opinion holds that the reason for the incompatibility could be because Sony placed the necessary files in a different location. Either that or Sony has put a lock on the files which only they can access.
Someone's posted a video online of the anomaly. You can check it out in the link below. Meanwhile do note that, when the Pandora's Battery was first released, Prometheus Project originally intended it to be for the PSP Slim. Too bad it got leaked ahead of time, and so the team had to officially release it. What does this mean? The Pandora's Battery we have right now might be a bit too premature for the Slim, but we could expect the real deal sooner or later if we cross our fingers tight enough.

The PSP homebrew and hacking scene might be on a roll here with some big news, there is still some cause for bitterness. We are all already aware about Sony's official stance on the homebrew scene for the PlayStation Portable. The company's actions suggest that they don't want the community to continually mess up with their creation.
It just so happens that Sony has just brought the battle to the PlayStation Underground Community by officially banning all homebrew-related discussions on the said board. Much to say, this did not surprise most members of the community. Certain topics that were banned include:
Custom firmware
Themes, applications, custom bootup animations/sounds, and other materials made available only with use of homebrew programs that may be used to aid or facilitate copyright violations (such as Eboots, ripping software, decryption software)
Debugging software
Programs designed to emulate firmware
TIFF applications
Programs designed to provide for modification of the PSP code or firmware, or that would allow for any exploitation of the PSP® system firmware flashing software
Applications designed to bypass PSP system and game security features
Emulators, ROMs, CSO, ISOs, or any other unauthorized copies of copyrighted material
Software or hardware designed to aid or facilitate in cheating

So that's it from us this week! The dawning of a new age sure is upon us! Right now, anything can happen. Will old-timer homebrew heroes resurface for the Slim-Lite revolution, or will new saviors lead the homebrew army this time around? Meanwhile, the God of War himself, Kratos, could be showing his goatee'd face sometime soon too, y'know...
dankeeeeee
