VERSiON.TXT SWiTCHER - universal manipulator for version.txt

VERSiON.TXT SWiTCHER v1.1 by Yoti
¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤

  • This program is designed to manipulate the files "version.txt".
    The program comes in two versions:
    1. OFW_MODE - no transactions with flash0, potentially safer (you need to sign)
    2. CFW_MODE - has the ability to write in flash0, but without the risk of Brick!
  1. On firmware 5.50 GEN may now easily possible to fix the message "There is no need to update."
    If you try to upgrade the following message:

    Code: Select all

           "The system software of your PSP™
            system is version 9.90.
            There is no need to update."
    
    then you have the firmware installed FAKE version.txt from 9.90 to protect against accidental renewal.
    The program will help you to replace the original version.txt to 5.50
    that will set you free, and especially beginners, from the danger of manual intervention in the flash0.
  2. If you want to downgrade to 5.03 (PSP-200X/300X-03G), which can be produced from 6.20 TN HEN,
    you'll need in your ms0:/seplugins/ file version.txt 5.00.
  3. You can easily and quickly manipulate files (usb)version.txt in the folder "seplugins", "plugins" or in flash0.

    Sample selection:

    Code: Select all

            ms0(ef0):/(se)plugins/version.txt - to downgrade or a fake version of "System Information".
            ms0(ef0):/(se)plugins/usbversion.txt - to connect to the PSN via Media Go.
              flash0:/vsh/etc/version.txt - to change the firmware version for removal/setting of protection updates.
  4. If you need protection from the upgrade, you can write in flash0:/vsh/etc/
    version.txt file from firmware 9.99.

    The program supports up to 4 files simultaneously versionX.txt, where X - serial number of the slot.
    Also, you can use any of their version.txt, adding to the name of the slot number (no more than four).
  • The structure of your file should look like this:

    Code: Select all

          [Root ms0 or ef0 PSPgo]
               |-PSP
                     |-GAME
                            |-V_SWITCH
                                       |-EBOOT.PBP
                                       |-Version1.txt
                                       |-Version2.txt
                                       |-Version3.txt
                                       |-Version4.txt
    Image

    Installation:
    1. Download and unzip the VERSiON.TXT SWiTCHER v.1.1 by Yoti.zip
    2. Copy the folder "V_SWITCH", from the folder with your desired language/mode, in the folder ms0(ef0):/PSP/GAME/
    3. Run from the menu "Game => Memory Stick™» program "VERSiON.TXT SWiTCHER".
    4. In the first information window displays, the numbers of cells, available versions versionX.txt in the folder with the program...
      (see a screenshot of the title)
      • Make sure the version found in every cell, and then Image to continue further or Image if you want to quit.
    5. In the next window, you can now produce all kinds of manipulation of files:

Hey Yoti is there any chance of brick. I understand it modifies a flash file other than that like on a Go or 3k will it brick?

cfw_mode has less than 1% chance of brick (just use charger and/or good memstick for safety)
ofw_mode has no chance of brick

It is signed and i'm guessing it works like a LCFW where it can write to flash.

A signed version is intended for the official firmware and it will not be able to write in flash0.
At LCFW can use the unsigned version => "cfw_mode"
