PSP-3000 Hacked? By Datel?!
Hrm... Well, as far as I know, there's no official confirmation from anyone just yet... But according to *cough* Datel, they've created what would seem to be a Pandora-like battery for both the PSP-2000 and the thought to be unhacked 3000 -- alas, Datel's Lite Blue Tool Service Mode Battery.
It's said the battery will offer the ability to toggle between normal and service mode; as well, the Lite Blue Tool features a LED power gauge indicator for your convenience. Of course in service mode you're given access to the PSP's flash leaving the device fully hackable -- downgrade, install a custom firmware, do whatever desired... Or so you'd think.
The Lite Blue Tool will be available November 28th retailing for $29.99 across North America and $19.99 in the UK.
Now the question is: speculation or realer than Real Deal Holyfield? I'd say it's likely but we'll know for sure in the coming days...
Quoting Datel -- *cough* --
Although there were early indications that the PSP3000 had embedded Service Mode capability, it was clear that silicon level investigation would be required to understand the new mechanism.
Once the target IC had been identified, our engineers then de-capsulated the device and prepared it for hi-resolution SEM imaging.
The engineers then used circuit extraction to reveal the additional service mode only encryption functions which were not present on earlier generation PSPs. In order to be compatible with these encryption functions, Datel created an advanced IC controller which will be put straight into use in their newest service mode battery technology.

Wow, that sounds pretty hardcore. haha datels gonna try an rip us off agian by copying Dax's work. funny stuff, but i wonder if sonys gonna bitch about it?
I'm pretty sure they'll be bitchin, they're probably drawin out the blueprints for the psp 4000 right now lol.well sony got kicked in the balls, good work datel. I'm a lil confused here, so they're saying the batteries will be available on that date blah blah blah, so does that mean we wont get to download the software to make it ourselves? or are they just keeping it to themselves. But if its a special way of hard modding the battery, i hope they show us :(
Lol that was funny psp 4000 lol
@mike501What are you talking about? DAX hasn't even released anything on the PSP-3000 yet! There's nothing for them to copy!
exactly. unless dax has access to the proper equipment to be able to strip a piece of embeded silicon out of its packaging and then look at said silicon he couldnt have anything to do with it. equipment to do that costs a lot of money, and i mean A LOT. not only that but it requires an in depth knowledge of electronics and computers to use it, not just knowing how computers work and how to program as the former is much more complicated than the latter, to the point where anyone who has such knowledge is likely either an engineer or an engineering student with a good bit of experience under their belt. not saying that dax doesent fit this profile, but as i (as well sa most others) know little to nothing of him i cant assmue anything (hence why im speaking hypothetically).the question here is, did datel actually do this or not.
This reminds me of how we hacked the original Xbox, just in reverse order. Full access (FW 1.50 and below, any Xbox today), software access (tiff exploit, LCS, 007 on Xbox), hardware access (pandora, moodchips on Xbox), and decapping and investigating (Datel now (supposedly) and Bunnie on Xbox.
"(Comments wont nest below this level)"Can someone please explain the idiocy of this dumb-shitted retardation?I don't think anyone gives a flying fuck when you type in: (Comments wont nest below this level)It's not like someone is gonna go: "Oh I'm not gonna type anything here... It says (Comments wont nest below this level)"There is still a fucking reply button on the damn thing. If you don't want people to talk or comment about things you say then just shut the fuck up and don't say anything.Use some damn common sense!(Comments WILL nest below this level if they want to cuz I don't give a fuck like this other guy.)
I agree, Kilogold.
lol but he didnt type that, that automatically appears after several comments on the reply...wow?
That really made me laugh! REALLY HARD!!
oooh...and btw, it, "(Comments wont nest below this level)" means they wont move over to the right anymore. they will continue downward. :-) all smiles now. hopefully no more bitching! :-) LMAO to kilogold though.
dose it need a magic/pandora memory stick or can any memory stick thats been hacked be used? btw when will this come out in austalia.. how much... and will it work for australian psp-3000s? some one please find out and let me know... thanks
...why can't you just use google and find it yourself?
cant you see its related to the subject?
Yes this will definatley be kickass. has anyone got one yet there already released? if so do they actually let you toggle and everything? give us some updates!!
we will see how it goes then shall we? nice work!
if its true ima piss my pants!! I'll deffenitely get one if it is true, ive been needing a new PSP for a while still have the launch Phat PSP so this will be a good upgrade. Im gonna be able to enjoy the "new features" of the PSP 3000 including its exclusive Scan Lines, lol.
Actually mike501, hacking the 3000 wasnt copied by Dax. They went in to the cercuitry and ripped out the encryption that was in the PSP. And, yeah, Sony probabley will xD.Props to you Datel.
hmm so i better sell my slim 2000 fast so i can get more money for it so hoepfully ppl dont find out about this lmao yeah i just decided to keep my good ole fatty need that ifrared if slims would have infrared then i would keep them but they wont so yeah
This is sure gonna make 3000 sales go up high :P
i love my psp FAT and still have it on 3.52 cfw (best for homebrew) tho some newer games dont work but there aint many new psp games worth playing anyway.so with the psp slim which is crap,fat is much better,and now the 3000 that seems to have a mic,wooohoo,and we will all use that mic yer ....why are you people buying this sony crap,theres no games,it keeps getting hacked and you all keep putting on the latest cfw that can be buggy,and not even play homebrew when its first released,for no reason ?drop the sony and buy a pandora ! http://openpandora.org/
i'll buy it when they port psp firmware to it lol
i dont mean to crush ur bubble but ive tried my friends one with the mic, and you have to be so fucking clear and so close to the mic for it to work normaly. and plus weight and size diffrence (NONE) and the brite screen, you can only notice the diffrence in photos.
if dark alex can't hack,98% cannot be hack lol..
O.OQuestion is...Would there be any reason what so ever to own a PSP2000 slim?I myself own a Phat.Been wondering if I should buy another Phat (Thinking Adhoc Emulation works best/only with Phat-2-Phat)Scanlines..... 3000's doomed to have that regardless? Is that the only downfall to the otherwise better 3000?Or is there Homebrew that wouldn't work 3000 as well? I know lacking the 1.5 kernel the 2000s are a little crappy due to that, But...I dunno isn't the 3000s only firmware 4.00 or higher? when 3000s are 3.00?
Yeah i got a Phat 2! i love it sept for the not havin skype or good mic like slim...
I bet DA already know how to make a pnadora for the 3000, he probably wanted to wait for a few good games to come out first. Well, maybe DA will screw Datel this time and release how to make one for the 3k.
Datel used to be an awesome prominent reverse engineering of sort company until recently they stole some work of others. God knows what's the truth behind it. Anyway, it's either they're back or they hired Dax for a big whooping contractual amount of money and a team of reverse engineers I guess. So it's good news if it's true and plausible. We'll just wait and see by then. If it works, I'm gonna get that PSP-3000 and I don't care about the interlacing-scanlines issues. Heck, I've got both phat and slim. OK the phat is mine and the slim was for my younger brother. haha. I just freckin' wish sony won't release another "version/model" of PSP like PSP-4000 or PSP-xxxx something.
im hearing all this shit about interlacing-scanlines? what is it and what dose it do?

Sry for the dbl post.
@ov3erkillYeah man I feel ya. I think that Datel's got what it takes, and if they've gone so far as created a product line and promised "hacking" I don't think they're about to false advertise and lie; they may just be for real.I have been looking to get a new handheld. I've had a phat since release and I'm tempted to upgrade to something, maybe even DS just for the vast amount of games. *gag* Or to this, but it doesn't seem worth it...
this site shows a more in depth look into this topichttp://www.maxconsole.net/?mod...
Interesting, lets hope it's true so we can stop hearing this shit like "whn will tha psp-3000 b h4cked?" on the forums.
@dumbassDatels Raw Science did it. They're the hardware people, so yeah, they did.
But can it run CFW is what I meant, I think you're the dumbass Mr. Narutard.
dude...have u ever thought that maybe he was referring to the person "dumbass" on the above post? and if he was(which i'm sure he is) lol then you carry that name very well ;)
WOW Datel actually reversed engineered something? ... yea right....
I'm sure this "Advanced IC Technology" is no more advanced than an SNES cartridge considering Sony made it as easy on the 1000 and 2000 models as setting all the bits for the serial to '1'. Lawl.
hmm this is cool, but i dont think ill upgrade my phat, had that thing since it released in japan! love the IR port but @ ADOGGthat looks tight, thx 4 the article
Interesting indeed. Lets take time to review the ideas by other users first.To mike501 there was no release by dax for datel to copy. They did worm their way into making a few bucks by stealing a previous idea to access ipls.To dumbass since when did you have to rip chips out of a board to access function? Your statement was a nice laugh and brightened my day for a second.To Cheese Me! you are 100% correct. Not only will it increase the 3000 series it will draw people into buying this hunk of junk.To gregerson316 dax will never care about when he releases his works due to what games are being released. No doubt he frowns apon such actions and iso function is there to basically show "it could be done." Its the users choice in piracy. What he does is bring freedom back to us. Anyway now on to other topics. Yes it seems likely this has been done. They have resources far beyond the avg home hacker. If so goodie for them. I wouldnt buy the pos. What I say is to wait and maybe dax can deliver the blow right back at them. YES see how THEY did it. Then bring it back to where it needs to be. Who knows there might be a release before this is out.
Well how is DAX supposed to crack the encryption? Datel used hardware hacks to get around it. A whole lot easier than software hacks apparently.
Datel wants to make money off IDIOTS who buy this piece a s**t. Datel hates u!(Sony hates u 2 cause they made a PSP-3000 but thats different)
HumanSymphony well we can wrap this up as fake. I gave datel a call and they have 0 psp 3000 tools in production at this time. They donot have anything being mass shipped to northamerica on black friday (28th). Seems like a ploy. When I asked about the "light blue" they said they had no information of that item that it does not exsist. Fake+++
look on ebay and shit, its already for sale for 19$-29$
You dumbass, that's pre-order. What do you know, people can get ripped off from Ebay?
whats ur proof?
Dude.. its just the battery.. it still needs software, which isnt avalible for 3000's yet. Datel sold tool batteries before, and they all aperently needed DAX's Magic Memory Sticks still. The 3000's aperently respond to the same battery, so its just a marketing ploy.. just cause you can put the PSP in service mode, doesnt mean you'll have an IPL that works (we'd still ahve to wait for DAX)
dudes maybe dax can look at that battery and show us how to mod our own battery :D
its fake.....not real no need to even continue
