Sony owned (again) - Firmware 3.11 decrypted (within day 0)

Posted by multippt

The moment Sony released its firmware, the homebrew community is up on its feet again to do some work… except maybe this time, there isn’t any work to do - PSP firmware 3.11 is decrypted by… the SAME decrypter (from Team C+D) for 3.10.

Not to mention, 3.10 was decrypted within day 0 as well. The steps of decrypting this firmware is the same as the method for decrypting 3.10:

1)Extract the PSAR file from the EBOOT (*.PBP) via a EBOOT extractor (like PBP unpacker on your computer)
2)Place this extracted file on the root of the memory stick
3)Copy the homebrew application files (psar_dump2 and psar_dump2%) into the appropriate game folder
4)Run it from your PSP.
5)Just tinker around with the dumper… and the firmware is decrypted!

Of course, at the moment, there is not much you can do with the decrypted firmware at the moment. By all means, do expect 3.11 OE (well… if there is any feature Dark_Alex would want to add from 3.11 to his current custom firmware).
