PSP Lock v5 (PSP Application)

Aura has updated his security application PSP Lock. It allows you to set a password before you actually can use your PSP.

Release notes:

I made this a while back, I’ve removed the annoyance of the Sony startup screen everytime you enter the XMB, and I’ve also fixed a few bugs in the code.

Tested on 3.52M33-4 but should work on all version.

Instructions are in the readme, and example lock.lock and config.lock files are also included.

Hopefully in a future update I’ll remove the 2 main bugs (CXMB and password upon exiting a game).

Any questions, just ask

-Aura

M33-4 v3.71 (PSP Firmware)

Dark_Alex has updated his custom firmware for Playstation Portable.

Release notes:

Changelog:
– Bugfix: Multidisc psx games bought in the psn store would not work due to the format being different and M33 treating them as decrypted games.
– Added support for decrypted multidisc psx games created with popstation_md (supplied with this release).

Included in the package is a new version of popsloader.

Popsloader:
– Bugfix: Games without compression had sound issues when using 3.72 pops. Fixed.
– Added support for multidisc px games created with popstation_md. Note: multi disc games will only work in 3.71 and 3.72 pops. Previous pops will exit to the xmb with generic error 0x80000004 when attempting to run multidisc games.

VSHMenu v3.0 (PSP Application)

VSHMenu is an Alternative VSHMenu that has identical functions as the M33 VshMenu along with utilities such as the possibility to change the background color, to power off and to sleep the console, to activate and to disactivate M33 VshMenu from dashboard or to make screenshot of XMB!

Changes:

-Fixed problems with USB device setting when UMD9660 were selected.
-Last USB Device chosen will be saved, so at PSP reboot default USB Device will be last one chosen.
-Changes to CPU and BUS frequency will be applied immediately on menu closing, without requiring console reboot.
-Add UMD-VIDEO function (like M33 VSHMenu)
-ISOs in ISO/VIDEO directory will be checked on every VSHmenu beginning, so changes (adding/removing ISO) will be realized immeditely without requiring console reboot!
-Now pressing again the “start” key VSHMenu will close itself.
