Play PSP games on PC even with a PSP broken screen

Let’s say, for example, that your PSP’s screen is broken but you still want to play games with it. What are you going to do? Buy a new one? Maybe in the past that’s what we’re going to do but this application has the potential to change all that.

Homebrew developer DeMoN X passed by QJ.Net PSP forums today and released Remotejoy GUI v1. Just like we said, this application lets users display the PSP screen on the computer making it possible to run games even in full screen.

Basically, the program uses plugins “psplink.prx” and “remotejoy.prx” via the Recovery Menu. Then certain .bat files can be called to view games in a window or full screen, and another for both with FPS display.

DeMoN X said that this is an initial release and as such, you might encounter some problems especially when you have other .prx files running. Also, the coder mentioned that not all games are compatible with Remotejoy GUI so you might have to do some trial and error.

Remotejoy GUI v1 should be used on custom firmware 3.40 OE-A only. You will also be needing Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 with this. The developer thinks that it might run on earlier custom firmwares but they haven’t been tested as of yet.

Please take note as well that your PSP will lock up if a  game uses a certain call to load files or directories off the memory stick that is incompatible with PSPLink.

Download: Remotejoy GUI v1
Download: Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0

How to Transfer Music to the PSP

Given that Sony invented portable music players with the creation of the original Walkman back in the 80s, it’s not going to come as a surprise to hear that its PSP handheld console will also play music for you on the go. All you need is a Memory Stick Duo to store MP3s on and a USB cable with a Mini-B type connector, both of which can be bought at your local home electronics or PC store. Your PSP will play both MP3s, which can be created by ripping the tracks from a regular audio CD using your PC and Microsoft Windows Media Player 10, and ATRAC3 audio files. Once transferred, you’ll be able to play games and music when you’re next out and about with your PSP!

If you’ve connected your PSP to your PC before, perhaps to transfer a movie or some digital photos, skip to step 4.

With your PSP turned off, insert the Memory Stick Duo into the Memory Stick slot on the left of the PSP console. Turn your PSP back on and go to the home screen and access the Settings. Scroll down to System Settings and press X.

Within the System Settings section, scroll down to Format Memory Stick and press X. Confirm that you want to format the Memory Stick Duo and wait for a few seconds while it takes place.

Once formatted, return to the Settings section at the home screen and scroll to USB Connection. Connect one end of the USB cable to your PC and the other to your PSP and then press X.

This will enable your PSP’s USB connection and, after your PC has loaded any drivers it needs (as long as you’re using Windows ME, 2000 or XP it’ll do this automatically), open My Computer on your PC’s desktop.

Double-click on the Removable Drive icon and then on the PSP folder. You’ll now see a selection of folders, one of which is called MUSIC. Open this folder by double-clicking on it with your mouse.

You can now save or drag and drop your music files into this folder, either individually or in their own sub-folder. Once itransferred, press O on your PSP and go to the Music icon on your PSP’s home screen and press X.

PSP Blender FW 2.80 TA-082 - 086 easy downgrader for the PSP.

PSPIt won’t be too long until other devs try to help out those who will be downgrading from FW2.80 to 2.71 using 0okm’s golden downgrader. As mentioned by my co-blogger Pranav, don’t expect this 0okm creation to be as easy as a Dark_AleX downgrader. So with that, some devs are extending a helping hand to those who are stumped.

Before you go over the steps and the download links, we just want to remind you that you are using this at your own risk. Get it (and in the future, other “easy” downdaters) “if you know HowTo use and can take the Risk”. But just because it’s risky, it doesn’t mean we’ll leave you all by yourself as you do this. We would help you in the best way we know how.

With that said, Klm Software reported and released an “easy” version of 0okm’s TA-082 - TA-086 FW2.8 to 2.71 downgrader. The devs provided six steps for you to have a 2.71 PSP in your midst. The first step is to download the “easy” downgrader which is about 13 MB in size, then install xLoader.

When you’re done with that part, install the downloaded easy downgrader, then start xLoader, and run the downgrader. Wait, those are just five steps, what’s next? The last, and to some the most important, step is to pray that this thing works. So just to avoid any confusion, we’ll outline the steps for you again.

  1. Download the “easy” downgrader
  2. Install xLoader
  3. Install downloaded easy downgrader
  4. Start xLoader
  5. Run downgrader
  6. PRAY

Yup, it is important for you to follow those steps (especially the last one). Anyhow, Vincent who is one of our readers, told us that he followed all the necessary steps in using this one and it worked for him. So it is really important to really follow ‘em procedures.

With that said, if you want to know more about xLoader, you could read these articles: the first one is about the eLoader v.0995 “Kriek” release, and the other is basically a xLoader clarification from the Noobz crew. If you missed the first link to 0okm’s FW 2.80-2.71 downgrader for TA-079- TA-086 PSPs, here is the article link again.

Now on to the download links, it is important that you read the file description when you’re downloading files at dl.qj.net. They might teach you a thing or two. Unfortunately, we couldn’t host the easy downgrader file due to some legal issues, so we leave it up to you if you will get it or not. But if you choose to use it, here are the files that you may need.

Download: [NET 2 Framework]
Download: [eLoader 0.995 “Kriek” Windows Installer] (for xLoader)
Download: [eLoader 0.995 “Kriek” ZIP files]
