I been in the psp world since the days of 1.51( since about a month after psp launch in USA) So I been here since most of the hacking, I may not know everything about what took place in the psp world but I do know most of the major events. I hopeing some of the other vets here might be will to help this thread out and fill in the missing parts.
Lets start, as I recall it was Nem who released the first homebrew application for the PSP, a Hello World application.
Swaploit. Firmware 1.5 now had all the homebrew that 1.0 had been known for.
Just a week after swaploit, PSP-DEV released KXploit.
Groepaz of “Hitmen” group got “Hello World” on 2.0 PSPs.
Skylark, Niacin and a 3rd anonymous person tried to exploit it. And they were greeted by success! Using a buffer overflow in the library, they were able to paint the screen with color. And it was quite a big achievement. But it still didn’t run code.
, MPH released a downgrader
A guy by the name of Saotome was the first successful person to load 1.0 eboots on 2.0. Although it only ran a few eboots (including Nem’s original Hello World app), it was definitely a start.
Fanjita then made a Tetris clone, made for 2.0 using the TIFF exploit
