“Custom Firmware Extender” is a set of plugins that will add some extra option to your SONY PSP.

Changes:

– Removed usb/wifi ISO streaming for multiples reason, principaly it was not the goal of cfe at the beginning.
There is now “USB ISO Loader” by psp.padawan that will do the job well. You should soon be able to grab it from www.mydedibox.fr/~psppadawan/
– 390m33-2 and 150_340TM custom firmware now supported (cfe should now work on any firmware), note that on the 150_340 time machine firmware, the ftpd server will not work, and remotejoy under ISO/HOMEBREWS won’t work too for now. All other functions should work well.
– Time Machine compatibility : You can now reboot “on the fly” from one time machine firmware to another, just edit the cfe.config file under “ms0:/seplugins/cfe/” to choose which firmware you will reboot to by pressing a combo button. Format is the same as the original time machine configuration file. Default configuration is NOTE+LEFT => reboot to 150_340 firmware, NOTE+RIGHT => normal reboot (NAND).
– Remotejoy fixed to work on both slim and phat psp, without savegame bugs, so it should now be completely usable for gaming and recording.
– Tested on 390m33-2 and 150_340TM firmware on SLIM and PHAT psp.

As once in a while, Art is updating his Playstation Portable application Time Baby. It’s a multifunctional tool, with many functions and it’s all about “time”.

Changes:

– Removed preset locations from the Sunrise and Sunset display mode since it is easy to set a location
in the World time clock screen, and to bring it closer to the way the moon display mode works.
The user defined location can still be fine adjusted in the same manner.
– Sideways Dpad movement in Sunrise/Sunset display mode will allow calculated previews of other dates
the same way the Moon display mode works.
– Previews are reset to current time if UP or DOWN arrows are used to move out of Sun or Moon displays.
– Added configurable plasma clock display. Plasma display settings are saved with user profile.
– Removed multi coloured world map selection. Both grey scale maps can still be selected and saved.
– Small changes to graphics in world clock mode.
– New antialiased font has smooth edges and new font for some display modes.
– Fix to stop program saving screenshots while running under irshell so duplicates aren’t created.
– Removed the 13:37 icon Easter Egg. Program has a new plasma screenshot icon.
– PSP unit is auto overclocked to 333/333Mhz when the heart rate monitor is started.
– Implemented support for a user supplied external background image.
– Plasma greetings screen implemented for Memory Stick donators.
– Pressing CROSS button no longer skips intro, but speeds it up instead.

maxthebest updated his Protect-Me application for PSP. This application allows you to set a password on startup.

Changes:

In the Installer:
-Changed the interface totally, now you have a nice one.
-Recoded most of the eboot.
-New options:
-You can now exit via the menu
-You can now uninstall the prx, and password and history file
-You can now delete the password without deleting the prx (to keep history function)
-You can reset the history (clear the file)
-Now the installer checks wether vsh.txt exist or nopt, if it does not exist:
– it creates it
– It adds ‘ms0:/…blah blah blah” so that you don’t have to do it yourself)
-The prx checks wether the good line is writen in vsh.txt, if it does not, then it adds it.
So now the installation is easier, you just put the eboot in your psp and launch it, and then activate the prx, nothing else!
-Changed ‘********’ to ‘aaaaaaaa’ because it caused some little problems.
In the prx:
-Changed ‘********’ to ‘aaaaaaaa’ because it caused some little problems.
