maxconsole Wrote:Special Battery hardware specifications

- 1.1v-3.5v debug unit for connecting through the serial port in 3rd. battery pin.
- Transmission of data is UNENCRYPTED but uses a XOR algorithm for transmission (easily parsed and analyzed).
- Contains any number of IPLs (different ones for each motherboard revision (TA-XXX))
- IPL is loaded into the Kernel Memory. ME area seems most likely (IPL of the PSP is the same but missing 2 essential modules that the debug unit has).
- Contains ipl_mg_modules.bin and ipl_mg_nanddriver.bin
- IPL is encrypted in 3 stages. Easily decrypted to show stages, but not for decrypt each individual stage.
- Contains a 40x120 column TFT screen for display.
- Has a SERIAL port for PC connectivity.
- Seems to have a 32MB ROM IMAGE on Flash.
- 8MB of RAM.
- Nickel-Cadmium Battery Cell (possibly 76 hour battery life).
- AC/DC adapter port 15V.
- Contains 4 buttons (on/off, reset, connect/disconnect, menu).
- Arrow keys UP and DOWN for menu.

And I must say, the more I think about it, the less likely I think this is true - the "guy" said he recieved a memory card in his returned PSP, and now he's a guru on this battery?!?

the battery "specification" is actually only speculation at this point, well as far as im aware anyway, but this speculation was around before the memory stick was all over the internet..i don't think the guy who got the memory stick has a clue about homebrew, he just decided to go online and ask about the contents and someone probably just asked him to upload the file.

Anyone have comments or thoughts on the contents of the software he uploaded?

I found this story really interesting...  Maybe something useful could come from the software?
