    what can we do with this??

  2. Caio

    Isn’t this bad for the scene?

  3. Spider-Monkey

    So…all psp can now have a Hen so what’s is this release for?? I mean they could just save this exploit for the next firmware(if Sony decided to do so). Well this isn’t really I was expecting, I was expecting for a update for the Hen PRO or a downgrader for 6.35 😀

  4. ffdgh

    this is rather…..odd

  5. flofrucht

    That’s bad for the scene,why release it now ?

    • Tingisbug

      for fame @_@

    • MitMakis

      Its not bad for the scene in any way, its patched in 5.50. So its a “might as well” release it kinda thing.

      The Minna no Sukkiri exploit was bad, but I don’t think saying every exploit released by someone after they leak a big one should be considered “to gain fame”.

  6. guigui

    He should keep this exploit private until sony release 6.4x

  7. guigui

    never mind:

    “Thanks to NPT, for testing on US version – sadly its not working after ofw 5.50 (not blackilsted)”

  8. haitechan

    I think it would have been better if that exploit wasn’t released becase it’s possible that Sony patches it on the next OFW. Aside from gaining fame, I don’t see the point. There are already exploits for 6.2/6.3x. Oh well…

    The second impact from Jeerum…

    What does he want to do in our PSP scene? I NEVER understand.

  10. rafael707

    owell its patched in 5.50+

  11. james1552

    really? How is this any bit useful. Thanks Jeerum for proving you only want to be famous….

  12. Saik

    if it’s patched already there is no point in keeping it a secret. especially from so far back. Jeerum is just trying to show he’s comited to the scene

  13. Lampworker

    See we have some parrots in this comment section. Assuming that because an exploit is released that it was only for fame or for it’s use, is flawed reasoning. It’s not bad for the scene, it just doesn’t have any future potentiality. Released or not, this was not good or bad for the scene and simply indifferent.

    How is this useful? It’s not. Exactly why it was released. Why keep something under wraps if it simply doesn’t matter? Jeerum was well aware of this, and didn’t expect any fame to come from it. Please wake up and start thinking for yourself rather than jump on the bandwagon.

    Dont call him as fame eater!

    Jeerum Giving an Open challenge to “S*ny”
    that whatever u try we are one step ahead of u!!

    Patching on this exploits will be pain in neck!

    Keep it up jeerum!

    • cripii5

      this is not a fight with a big company, that’s stupid, in the scene you want utilities, not show you like you’re better then sony :S

      That’s my point of view

  15. cripii5

    what’s the point of this exploit? I don’t get it :S

    • DBZo07

      just for user with 5.50 ofw or lower! 😛

      • akabull

        uh… not exactly. Users with 5.50 ofw or lower, they can simply update their psp’s system to 6.20 and use TN-HEN
        i personally don’t see the point of this release, yet at least this isn’t a waste as it doesn’t work on firmware above 5.50.

  16. equis

    Everybody go get Carol Vorderman’s Sudoku!!! Wait… what for?

  17. NEHAshu

    by the way whats the use of hello world???

  18. masterfu

    im guessing this useful for those poor people who brought a used PSP with a lower firmware? Or people having a model that can’t be upgraded to a newer firmware.

  19. jeerum

    lol, i like you guy’s 😀
    keep it up!
    There was no point, but, like i say before and now its done.

  20. sooqa

    Excuse me, where you can download Carol Vorderman’s Sudoku??

  21. jeerum

    in EU PSN store!

  22. williand

    is there a cfw now for psp 3000 ver 6.20???

  23. Flyer

    hehe, so he finally released this one

  24. ihatejeerum

    dude *** man, my psp’s umd drive broke and i sent it to sony, that means if theres a new update then they’ll update for me, why cant you keep your mouth shut?!!!!!!!!!! F..ck you jeerum!!!!

  25. fishy

    Does this exploit run faster than Minno no Sukkiri? Then it would be useful. Anybody know?

  26. spider-monkey

    ok after rereading this it makes more sense now. it doesn’t work on 5.50+ which its useless so might as well release it right? So this is an evidence that Sony is also looking for an exploit to patch before someone does.

  27. Aaron

    well, i guess jeerum did this just to show that he can find some more exploits… even though this one is pretty much useless for any one with a recent OFW.
    and well, even when we know that the release of the 6.35 exploit was kind of dumb and rushed, it was good news for a lot of us (of course then i thought about and realized that it was going to get patched, and i pretty got bumped)
    So by this moment we know he messed up, but we (6.35 ofw users) should be somehow thankful for what we got (yes i know it could be better if he waited, but still it’s good and no one can say that it isnt) and just know that we are gonna have to stay at 6.35 whenever Sony decides to release a new firmware…
    Anyway that’s just my opinion, im grateful to Jeerum for his work, even though he’s just like a lil kid that rushes to make decisions.

    Mathieulh released PSP/PS3 decryptor extractor chech it out:
    http://www.psp-hacks.com/2011/01/06/ps3psp-pkg-decrypter-extractor-v1-0-released/

  29. Saeeid

    perhaps he has many of them and he saved much more for future fws

  30. i think sony gave up and psp2 is gunna realese when nds 3d comes i think sony done with psp since the code cracked hen realesed why keep fighting no important releases (holiday n stuff like dat)

  31. cameraguy256

    umm why would they make this, no one has this game, almost no one that is…

  32. Enigma

    I also think this was a ”might as well” release.

  33. rafael707

    god so many noobies, the exploit is only on the EU version, its patched on 5.50+ in the US.

    @jeerum, good job hope you adapt the vsh sploit to 6.20 hen :), before you leave the scene

  34. joejoejoe

    No one really gets the potential of having Sony’s Kerk keys… this is nothing it’s not a waste even if it did work on 10.42 (just a metaphor for saying it doesn’t matter even if he didn’t release it until the next firmware) People the kirk keys are everything!!! IT’S GONNA BE BETTER THAN CFW ON A PSP 3000/GO COME ON!!! HOME-BREW FOREVER PLUG INS BACK UPS, ON OFFICIAL FIRMWARE!!! AND YOU CAN STILL UPDATE!!! REALLY THIS IS NOTHING KKKKKKKIIIIIIIRRRRRRKKKKK KKKKKEEEEEYYYYYSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  35. built2roll

    Please don’t exploit Carol Vorderman.

  36. am33r

    Why can’t he keep the exploit till after SONY patches the current one then release it !! Wololo, I hope you have other hidden cards for when this happens 🙂 At this point All is fine and figured Exploit + ( HBL + HEN + Homebrew ) so I thought the mission is to just keep finding the Exploits and keep them secret till the days after the OFW release !!

  37. Nickolas

    Guys come on there will be no other ofw psp homebrews can be signed it is game over for sony
