Hi all,

I'm trying to permanently flash my PSP go, I've followed all tutorials for the 6.61 Infinity method, it all goes perfectly except for the final permanent part. My current firmware is 6.61 LME-2.3(infinity symbol). when opening Infinity Bootloader Configuration, i have no options to install. The 'Update from Internet' option replies with Error sending HTTP Request. The 'Update from Memory Card/Internal Storage' option replies with Could not open update file.

I've found nothing online at all similar to this, any help???

Use LME on 6.20. It's better on the PSP GO. It's permanent patched and it doesn't break your "pause" feature. It's also more compatible with homebrew.

Or why not 6.60 pro c? I never understood why using the quick start for cfw was such a big deal, its just as compatible as 6.61 except for the psn which is dead for the psp anyways so I just don't understand.

Can you explain whats better? Ive been using 6.60 and have no problems?
It's more compatible with older homebrew and themes, it supports coldboot cfw even on newer models (minus the street, it doesn't support 6.20), and it has (with pro or lme) a built in exploit to run games that require a higher firmware. So it can play the whole library. It really is the best firmware to be on.

So, basically it has cold boot and compatiblity... could care less bout that but thanks for the info, the quick start takes 5 seconds and 6.60 does what I need it to, for op maybe 6.20 is better but to each their own.

Yeah, if it works fine for you that's cool. I was just letting OP know. Infinity sucks on the GO. Not only does it break compatibility with a lot of older homebrew (even more than regular 6.6x), it also breaks the "pause" feature on PSP GO.

First off, big apologies for not thanking everyone for replying, its been a while since i've seen this thread again.

I've been out of the PSP scene for some years, what is this "pause" feature?

This sounds like what i'd like overall, i really want to play DOOM and QUAKE again, on my psp would be epic! could i do that with 6.20?

Forgive me but what is a cold boot?

How hard is it to downgrade to 6.20 from 6.61LME / infinity?

Thanks in advanced all, and a REALLY big thanks you for telling me this!! seriously!!!!!

pause is like a built in save state

you can pause a game, and close it, then launch something else.

then you can resume your pause at a later point and go back to the original game you paused

The pause feature is like save states. It's only on the GO. You can do everything on 6.20. A cold boot cfw is when you start your portable/console and it's already hacked when you power it on.

pretty sure the pause bug was fixed and most homebrew works as long as you have LME and that retrocompat plugin

It was fixed in 1.02 but that was pulled from his website because it broke even more things. (The current download is still 1.0.) When I say more compatible with homebrew, I'm talking about legacy homebrew like plugins that never got updated past 6.35.

Nope, that's a changelog for a version that never released. (Or I should say it did but got pulled.)

i know that some homebrew isnt compatible, thats why i mentioned LME, it comes with a plugin to run legacy homebrew

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
    i need help with nusspli failed downloads, can someone respond to my thread? pretty please:wub:
