217 0

Hi everyone, PSP (PlayStation Portable) firmware update (v6.00) will be available soon. This is a minor update, but here’s quick head’s up on what to expect.

  • For those of you looking to customize your XMB (XrossMediaBar), a few new colors will be added under the Theme Settings. These new theme colors can be used on PSP models 2000 or after (PSP-2000, 3000 and N1000).
  • A security patch has been added.
  • [Network Update] has been renamed as [System Update].

As always, we look forward to reading your feedback.

  • 3.00 on ps3 and now 6.00 on psp. That sucks. Please release a new update for psp with:
    New things in video, music and pictures
    Throphies
    And some things in network

  • Ape quest is working now!
    I’ve downloaded the new files (released today or yesterday) from my download list and they load perfectly. Thank you everyone that worked on this issue.

  • 4get hacking this 1

  • Seems to me that if they just called it 5.57 people wouldnt be so upset.

  • Hey Eric

    I’m not going to lie, I’m a little disappointed with this update. I’ve noticed several graphical changes, such as new folder icons and the redesigned battery charging icon but I’m still troubled by the lack of more reasonable music support, such as playlists and the ability to group music based on genre, artist, album, release year, etc. The new grouping option for games is a good idea but I personally think you guys would have been better suited to apply that over in the music/movies/photos area. Just some irks I have about the update.

  • Wow I was expecting a little more than that LoL but it’s all cool

  • Crossfader Please

  • Crossfader, Somewhere Along The Line

  • an idea for the next update

    since the psp system is compatible with the high definition graphics of the ps3 perhaps enameling the ability to play the movies on your ps3 threw the psp screen during remote play

  • am i the only one that has huge problems with the RSS Channel feature since the update?

    i have been using my psp as a podcast receiver for over a year so i am not new to this. after the update, i noticed you could now change the settings per feed as to how many to download and this was exciting. as i began changing the settings on each feed suddenly all the feeds below the last one i changed were all the same. i even clicked on some of them and sure enough, they all had the same content. well i reset the psp and then all but a few of my feeds were GONE! i’m sure i had over 50 in there.
    so i started adding a few – flickr feeds, audio, and a video – and as i went changing the settings on each, a NEW problem started – all the feed titles and all the titles in the content lists began changing to a single hyphen. and as i tried clicking on the content titles (these were audio podcasts), it would not stream the episodes though the track time was still showing on each track.

    new daily media content is the majority of what i use my psp for so this is about the biggest loss i could suffer. can anyone in an official capacity comment on this? and can any users test and see if they have the same issue?

  • when will psp let us check our email with yahoo. yes i know i can go on aol but i like yahoo

  • Thanks for screwing the people who bought the PSP 1000 at launch…. People like me.
    The whole Skype thing pissed me off too…

  • Bug Report:

    Switching to QWERTY Keyboard layout: ‘Shift’ and ‘Caps’ perform the same function. The ‘Shift’ key acts as a CapsLock, as does the obvious ‘Caps’ key. So, two duplicate keys. It would be nice it Triangle could be use as a ‘Shift’ key, seeing as how ‘R’ already serves this purpose.

    …Of course, nobody will see this. :/

  • Ok i would like to know would we ever get to here our play list in game. Is there a way to use the ps3’s that are online or not online to help with the people who are downloading firm wire updates for there system, or is there a way to use one or two of the cores for the system to download some what faster content or for loading screens????

  • Also i would like to know if the ps3 owners with the other os installed will be able to be given full or limited access to the gpu you see i am one of the few who has linux on the ps3 and i would like to be able to use the gpu for the desktop effects in Ubuntu 9.04 so even if its limited 3D access can you help out with that please to me i wouldn’t half to go out and get a computer if i can get that to work on the ps3 and if you do decide to do it can you make it available to the whole linux community not just yellow dog linux or if you go the other way and use the cpu that would be fine to but i would like to use the ps3 to its full potential or at lest close to it to me the ps3 is like having a fast exotic car with excellent gas mileage but you never take it over 40 miles an hour on the high way i want to at lest be going the speed limit

  • now i know the browser is for the most part a work in progress but for the most part but we need options if that’s possible can you allow us people with an option until you can get the web browser to 100% or give us access to help out with it i know there are some people who would love to help out but in the mean time for the every day user on the browser can you allow them two alternatives fire fox3.2 or Opera 10 with that nifty on screen keyboard as a option or for us hard core users we already have a keyboard and mouse

  • So i sold my 1000 to a friend, i am gettin the gt bundle on the 20th, i upgraded his to 6.00 since it was the newest and i didnt want him to not be able to get onto the psp store. He bought the hannah montana game for his daughter, but it freezes and none of the buttons work on the opening screen. Game works fine with other psps on 5.00 and 5.50. Any ideas?
