Firmware 2.0 Eboot Loader v0.8.5 for PSP - Run Homebrew on your Firmware 2.0 PSP (PSPUpdates)

Loadmenufanjita208


Fanjita has updated his very popular and easy to use eboot loader which allows homebrew to run on your PSP with firmware version 2.0. If you do not want to downgrade every time to run homebrew then this is the way to go. Please note that not all homebrew will run using this program, but the list grows with every release. Fanjita writes about version 0.8.5: “

With this release, and probably for the next few, the focus is on adding extra supported applications and new techniques to the loader. As a result, a few apps that used to work will probably be broken. I've taken the decision to just live with that, and fix everything up in a couple of releases' time, because attempting to fix up newly-broken EBOOTs is too time
consuming. Every release from 0.8 onwards on is capable of working unaffected alongside previous releases, so this shouldn't be a big deal.

Important changes in this release:
- Introduced a configuration file, to allow tweaking of EBOOTs by end-users. See loader085.cfg for details.
- Improved kernel-mode override patching logic - makes a lot more apps run.
- Attempt to kill surplus system threads, for stability.
- Run loader from reserved memory for increased stability.
- Tidied up some memory reuse in ELF section header handling
- Bundled graphical menu now filters to only display the names of EBOOTs for selection - all the surplus fluff is hidden. Also now handles v1.5 kxploit-style homebrew directory structure.
- Added option to allow L+R+START reset to go back to loader menu, rather than main menu.

New supported EBOOTs:
- SNES9xTYL 0.2c
- TCGS Car
- ASTC (Another Silly Tetris Clone)
- Moppi's Flower Demo
- Tail Tale
- Scrabble Assistant - loads but hangs?
- PSP Revolution
- Heretic PSP
- SMS plus 1.2
- Crystallise 1.0
- Binary Clock
- A-Blit demo

You can get it in PSP Updates' Download section [here].
You can discuss this in the PSP Updates Official 2.0 Firmware Eboot Loader forums [here].
As always, thanks for the email and the great work Fanjita =)

PSP-HTTPD v0.1: Lua-Powered Web Server (PSPUpdates)

Okay, this one has me stunned... is the PSP on its way to being one of the most portable web servers around? Things are starting to look that way. Elxx from PSP Updates' forums has created an amazing application for your PSP, allowing it to serve out files to your PC including properly rendered HTML files. Here's what he had to say:
"What this does is basically let you download files from your PSP using your wireless network connection. You can browse through the files on your web browser, as if you're surfing a website. HTML pages will even be displayed and rendered correctly so you could run a website off your PSP.

I have to note, though, that this is 0.1, so it's a pretty hardcore beta. No more than one connection is allowed, so this will work fine so you can transfer stuff within your own network...it won't really do well hosting a site yet.

Also, the success of file transfers depends entirely on the quality of your Wi-Fi connection. Transfer speed is limited to around 10KB/s (at least for me)...I know it's slow, but it will do for now. If you start seeing X's on the PSP while transferring a file, there probably will be corruption. Working on those issues."


You can download this file from PSP Updates' new QuickJump Download site [here].
Come chat about this great new program or get help with it on the PSPU Forums [here].Currently, this program will only run on PSPs with firmware version 1.0 or 1.50. If you do not know which firmware version your PSP has, or if you need help installing this program on your PSP, check PSP Updates' Ultimate FAQ.
If you have a higher firmware version than 1.50 on your PSP, please check the information below:
– To downgrade the firmware from a version higher than 1.50, please visit [here].
– If you want to try to run it on a 2.0 PSP, please visit our forum for the latest 2.0 eboot loader, and a list of working program on it [here].
