PSP Slim NAND DUMP

[varnil]

Well i didn't find anything on these forums about its release (i checked both russian and english forums, fluent in both) so i thought i'd post something. Anyways, it seems Mathieulh and DaX have discovered a way to dump the nand of a psp slim... They claim the project is private and would not be released to the public, but should be easy enough for other's to discover. The nand image was 66mb and did not seem to be decrypted (at least not to me) based on math's post.

Right so here is my reaction to all this: (i posted it in several other forums and am way to lazy to translate it into russian (i type at 5 words a minute in rus versus the hundreds i get in eng). :

First of as a coder myself i can tell you how possessive and proud some people can be with their work. There's nothing wrong with that, in fact it should be respected. For the rest of you ******* who want to b**ch about this maybe if you had been a bit more supportive you'd understand but now you should be grateful for any sort of release and if you're not then go crawl under a rock because odds are without this there won't be another exploit for a loong time.

Anyways, aside from that, personally i wouldn't get my hopes up for another exploit. Also regarding the save state buffer overload, it's highly unlikely that it is even possible on a psp because simply modifying the hardware a little would enable sony to add a switch that can block write access to the nand in game... Furthermore, i believe one of two things hapened: either a new service mode hack or my more far fetched idea is physically removing the memmory chips off the psp 2000 motherboard, hooking them up to the original psp and then running a 1.5 nand dump off of the mem card (using pandora) accessing the flash through the 1.5 kernel in a standard eboot (of course a driver change might be neccessary for the new hardware to be readable) such as booster's usbsss

Please give links.
i cant find any information like that.

Until DaX or Math release or post something this is just a rumor.
Sorry.

EDIT: OMFG, now i see.
These 'news' come from ps3****.
Probably they want to start a rant war or something like that...
If its from PS3**** i wold not give a shi* on the truthfulness of this 'news'.
They see DA behind every thing and would love to discredit him any further for taking a stand together with M33 and Wildc*rd.

err, math posted this himself on maxconsole then confirmed (at 9:00 EST) it in the qj & dcemu forums. and u deserve to be banned for listening to anything ps3 has to say (if mot just for visiting said bastard), insulting noteworthy coder ability & credability, and visiting ps3news

[TrueLoonix]

Ok, i found the tread.

Looks like Mathieulh indeed posted this himself so i apologize for my bad search skills.

Before i just found Titlepage news without a real connection to one of the Names mentioned inside the Article.
Imagine how much damage such news can do to their names if nothing but hot air remains, its (7r011 |34i7)^2


So now i say its great and i hope that some talented developer team picks up and brings the Light of homebrew to the shadows of Slim

My Theory:

Dax and Math used the simpleIPL and a 3.50 cord with sigcheck removed on the pandora memstick and used the Illuminati exploit to run something like USBSSS to dump the firmware e.g. flash0.....

[mathieulh]

Wrong Theory.... xD

[Erland]

Finally I get a reply..Now I can work on another..theory..until I get my slim...

[reswel]

probably a modified msipl.bin to boot from the magic ms, flashed a custom IPL to bypass checks on unsigned codes, and used existing nandump utilities.

[TrueLoonix]

since i dont have a SLIM and probably wont get one (i love my phaty)
i am free to speculate wildly xD

Since the Firmware is completely rewritten as it seems they probalby have forgotten about the TIFF exploit ^^

Wouldn't that be (ROFL)^33?

[Adultery]

Obviously it's Pandora's work. The IPL people! Think... 3.52.
Pandora works on the PSP slim. It's the 1.5 subset that doesn't. That's where CFW will shine.

Nice to see Math toying with everyone though.

[kkssgg]

no, subset should work, even 1.50 as Pandora thing does not access NAND which could check the subset version. I think it's something other, maybe Pandora on Slim battery or smth...

[Fejwin]

well ^^ it's over, guys
