DIY Playstation Portable Usb Charger

Published on 2005, by The Nintendo DS Resistance, ©The Nintendo DS Resistance.

A friend of mine had a useless PSP™ car charger on his hands. Working but useless, as his family didn't travel by car. He requested that I use it in some constructive way. This is my take on the USB charger for the PSP™!

Dual Controlling Action

Mallice27 has emailed us his first hardware mod for the PSP™. This hardware mod will pretty much give you dual stick controlling action which is always helpful in First Person Shooter games. Nifty. In his words:

eLoader 0.98 "Porter" - 2.0+ Homebrew for PSP without GTA!

Published on 2006-09-05, by Pranav T., ©Content Holdings, LLC..

We’re sure you guys would be really itching to know what Fanjita and Ditlew have been up to lately. There hasn’t been an eLoader release for quite some time. The last one, if we recall correctly, was on the 2nd of April which bundled in WiFi support. After that, the 2.XX homebrew scene had been quiet for a while...That is, before the onslaught of downgraders! Although they might have taken a bit of shine off the eLoader with the masses moving to 1.5 firmware for kernel mode homebrew, I know a lot of people who stayed with the eLoader, anticipating great things.

And the Noobz crew isn’t one to disappoint. How about I tell you that you can skip buying that GTA UMD for using homebrew on 2.00 and above! Using the recent TIFF exploit in all the higher firmwares, Fanjita and Ditlew have been able to "port" the eLoader to the TIFF exploit. Earlier, homebrew on higher firmwares was run using the savegame exploit by Edison Carter. Now, rather than wasting time by starting GTA every time you want to use homebrew, you can simply go the the Photo section and start the eLoader. Heck, it’s actually faster than even 1.0/1.5 homebrew since you don’t have to view that "flashing bulbs" video. And the best part is that it doesn’t matter whether you have a TA-082 PSP or not, you can play homebrew regardless!

Get RSS feeds on your PSP

Published on 2005-03-29, by Barb Dybwad, ©Engadget, LLC..

This how-to serves a few functions: to piggy-back off the excellent work already done by roto to sniff out and untether the browser feature inside the PlayStation™ Portable's Wipeout Pure™ game, to serve as a step-by-step graphical walk-through for PSP™ owners who are unfamiliar with dabbling in the ways of DNS settings, and to provide another portal DNS server option for PSP™ users who don't have need or desire to set up their own DNS. Our portal includes a handy link to the Bloglines web-based RSS reader service, to add in some RSS reading functionality to the PSP™.

Interfacing with the PSP Remote port

Published on 2006-06-16, by NIL, ©NIL.

As already revealed here and here, the Remote port of the PSP™ is in fact a serial port, and the remote is being handled through a standard RS232 protocol, albeit using [0,+2.5V] voltage instead of [-12,+12V]. Therefore the question is; is it possible to connect the PSP™ remote port to a PC serial port? The answer is yes! Of course, you can NOT plug a PSP™ directly into a PC serial port (unless you want to fry it beyond repairs), but with a simple serial line converter this is no trouble at all, and you can then exploit a standard serial port out of the PSP™.

Master System Gamepad Interface for the PSP (The)

Published on 2005, by Klesk, ©Klesk.

The target of this project is creating a low-cost interface that allows multiple Gamepads to be connected to the PSP's infrared port.

As it is in a pretty early (but working) stage, the interface only works with 2 Master System™ Gamepads.

Playgear + USB mod

Published on 2005-09-10, by sulk, ©PSP Updates.

I got tired of having to take my PSP™ out of the playgear all the time, so I decided to make it so I didnt have to do that whenever I wanna use USB with it. So here it goes, scuse the outa focus pictures, and I made a new thread cause the other thread everyone is talking about silly pictures.

Published on 2005-09-28, by Eliot Phillips, ©weblogs, inc..

C.K. Sample, III, TUAW / WIN Blogger and author of the forthcoming book, PSP Hacks, got his hands on the version 2.0 downgrader and wrote up a thorough how- to complete with pics for us. He even takes the extra steps to upgrade and downgrade yet again, just to make sure such a thing is possible.

Turn a 2600 joystick into a PSP Battery Pack

Published on 2005-04-13, by Vince Veneziani, ©weblogs, inc..

You wanted it, we're giving it to you…just not in the form you expected. there's been an increasing demand for an external battery pack for the PSP™ due to it's somewhat short battery life. i was able to construct one out of a cool old Atari 2600™ joystick and battery pack. it works like a charm and is a great solution for your PSP™. keep reading below to follow the process on how to make one yourself.

What happens when an iTrip and a PSP get together?

Published on 2005, by B.A.T.S., ©B.A.T.S..

I got this idea when I was driving around with my wife. She owns an iPod™ mini with an iTrip™.

I was jealous that she could listen to her music via the car stereo and change frequencies on the fly.

She also had the entire FM band at her disposal. That's 87.9Mhz to 107.9Mhz - over 100 frequencies to choose from.

Now, sure, I could go and get an FM transmitter to jack-in to my headphone jack, but then I've got this cumbersome thing hanging from my sexy PSP™.

One idea was to gut a generic FM transmitter.

Most of those have switches to change the freqs, and I'd have to make a place for those switches on the exterior of the PSP™.

That would take away from the clean look of the PSP™.

The plan is to marry the two so that the PSP™ still looks like a PSP™, plus maintain the ability to change freqs on-the-go.
