More Custom Firmware Mods Released! *UPDATE #2*
Harleyg from our forums has released another custom firmware mod for all you firmware flashers out there! Harleyg’s custom firmware mod adds a menu and submenus inside recovery mode, so you can replace vshmain.prx, index.dat and recovery.elf via recovery mode with all safety checks, etc. Not satisfied with that, Harleyg has also added the option to change the CPU clock speed, USB mode, and remove custom firmware patch.
Harleyg has also modded another custom firmware so you can now “dual boot” into 2.71 firmware by auto-loading DevHook at startup by holding the left trigger while booting, otherwise you go into 1.50! This ingenious idea should make it much easier to launch higher firmwares or keep in 1.5 with minimal hassle! Although this custom firmware mod has been tested by Harleyg many times, bricking your PSP is always a possibility when writing to the flash memory – please be careful!

Update #1: We have also received word of another Custom Firmware module, this time released by Zettablade from our forums. Here’s the details:
Zettablades‘ Custom firmware mod adds the ability to take screenshots using the note key, an automatic USB function (just plug the USB cable in and it works), and overclocks your PSP’s CPU to 333Mhz. There is currently only one bug : If you go into the USB menu under system, the auto usb will stop working until you do a full restart; so don’t use it! Remember: When using Zettablades’ custom firmware mod there is no need to use the USB connection menu because it has auto-USB connect.
Update #2: Zettablades has released v0.01a, details available in the forum link below.

Admin Note: Phew! If nothing else, the PSP scene can’t ever be accused of not being dramatic – some of you guys need to lay off the pixie sticks! Many of the reports of these mods bricking PSP’s were falsified – dupe posts made by a few people. It should be noted that these mods are as safe as Dark_Alex’s original Custom Firmware application, they are just mods. If directions are properly followed, there should not be an issue – especially since there is a recovery option.
