Your first program.. Congratulations!

I already have my location free player removed from my Phat because of 150k add-on :)...

an di don't think i intend to remove it from my slim...

but nice way to start.. ;)

thank you...
it can only get better, i want to add more to it but i want to add the back-up part first before i add anymore so im trying to find a place where i can learn to flash...

Good work alex_e! +rep added for developing an app. :D

Also for a suggestion, you should add a disclaimer to the app; so if anyone bricks their PSP, it will not be your fault.

okie doke, good idea, but i thought it werent neccessary just yet because it doesnt trouch any vital files just yet, but i will do, you can never be to safe.

Ok, good now everything is good with the disclaimer in place.

Also, will this be open source or will you release the source in the future?

well i'll send you the source if you want it as we have a trust in our team, lol, but it will be open source once im finished with it so everyone can benifit.
:)

Nah, send it another time. I'll need it only for education purposes. But you can keep it for now.

ya sure, i can quickly comment it for ya, i dont mind tbh, or do u want it when its juicy
lol8)

No keep it for now. I can wait, and I am working on other stuff at the moment.

Nice psp utility! Posted to main news page of PSP Slim Hacks :) Look forward to seeing an update on this one.

[pspslimhacks.com]

The link on the Front Page does not work.

That's because the attachment link was removed/changed. I've fixed it now, though.

Thank you. :w00t:

the current backing up doesn't back-up the whole lflash?

btw... congratulations for v2 :)

@mortalinstincts

no it doesnt, only the files that are going to be removed are backed up.
i was just gonna release V2.5 but it will go on hold while i have look into implenting the whole lflash back-up.
my guess is that it will probably be implented in a 2.6.

Good work alex_e! :w00t:

A suggestion I have for Flash Spacer is to backup and restore function for the PSN settings found in flash2.

have a look at arnolds thread
http://www.lan.st/showthread.php?t=1959

Well, somehow Hellcat has managed flash2 access. Wierd, that others can't.

yh, i think im almost there, i just call something.
im just gonna compile it now and see if i write access
;)
UPDATE: didnt even compile, i'll do some more research, i mighjt just release 2.5 as it is,
it removes the DIC folder saving a total of about 3mb :)

Good luck. :wink:

You're releasing so much stuff. You are one dedicated homebrew developer.

One day, you might make your own CFW. :smile:

:)
my own CFW, i dont think so, hellcat was clever about it

i might upload V2.5 later on, its much more neater that V1 and V2.

Go ahead with V 2.5. :biggrin:

Also, your CFW could be called X.XX AE.

okay, it will be up in 30 minutes, i like the X.XX AE :D
i take it you like flash spacer?

i got to take care of the readme

MASSIVE UPDATE:
I GOT WRITE ACCESS TO FLASH2!
im going to flash somemore files to see.
what am i copying for the psn details?

MASSIVE UPDATE 2

i have 100% write access to flash2

Very nice!! Did you use cygwin on compiling the eboot? if so, i got some code i want to compile but cygwin is stupid and doesnt want to install the toolchain.

err, no...
cygwin caused to many problems and when it was finally installed it didnt work. lol
i use visual basic 2008 and the pspsdk, works like charm.
what code are you trying to compile?

my nand currency project, ill email it to you tommorow, so vb works fine with pspsdk? I have the full version of vb. might give that a go instead of cy.

yup, be sure to dl the pspsdk for windows and tick the box that says visual basic

Just a quick question. Suppose the features are remove with Flash Spacer, will one by able to upgrade to a new firmware successfully?

there should be no problem as the update will flash new files...

however if Flash Spacer starts removing files from flash1, then you might see some BSoDs, but then thats up to alex_e... :wink:

Bsod's? Blue screen of death?
@ theexile currently flash spacer only deals with flash0, if you remove anything from your flash0 you will still be able to install a new firmware...
there wont be a release for sometime as im dealing with a problem found in the v3 version....
it wont assign flash0 anymore so im trying to figure out why...

yeah.. playing with your flash1 may give you a BSoD, which in turn will force you to format your flash1...

Thanks all for the replies. Will give this program a try.

Updated to V3 :)

Updated to V3.5 :)

Hey guys, i have a bit of a problem here, can't i restore the changes i made (by deleting the web browser, and location free player)?

i want the web browser back...

Please answer, im freaking out!!!

first off, you should be more careful on what press, you may brick your PSP one day.
to restore the files you can do one of two things.
1) the noob friendly way is to use hellcats recovery flasher and install a NEW CFW, NOT OFW.
2) manually restore the flash backup made at startup.

may i ask why you want the location free player back and everything else?

Not the location free player, but the browser.

lol, thanks the hellcats recovery flasher did the trick, i already had a backup. xD

You should make an option to decide what to delete from flash.

okay, thanks for the feedback, i'll think about adding it in to the next version.

i have released the final release, check it out here
