The PSP can finally run homebrew games and applications on firmware 2.60. It previously only worked on 1.50 units and on PSPs that were downgraded from 2.00 to 1.50. There was minimal support on 2.00+, but with this tutorial most homebew applications should function. We should expect to see a new update very soon from Sony, possibly 2.70 or a minor “security” update to v2.60. If a new update is released, obviously do not update for a while untill information about what exactly it does is available. The homebrew on 2.60 PSPs will be able to run Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Atari Lynx, and many other applications.To run homebrew applications:
- PSP with v2.60 installed
- Memory Card with enough space
- Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
- USB Cable or MS Pro Duo Reader
To install homebrew applications:
- Download “homebrew260.zip” and extract content
- Connect and open media storage device
- Copy contents of GAME & paste them in X:PSPGAME
- Copy folder “ULUS10041S5” and paste in X:PSPSAVEDATA
- Place all the homebrew application files in GAME
- Start GTA & load profile 5 to get to the homebrew menu
- To quit the homebrew menu just hit the “start” button

Note: At the momment standard homebrew applications can only be run on PSPs with either 1.50 or 2.60. (nothing in between). If you have 2.60 only way to run these apps is with the retail edition of GTA. (not a UMD rip) Also downgrading PSPs can only be downgraded from 2.00 to 1.50. (no other combos will work!) P.S. Don’t ask us how to find UMD rips.
I have a psp ver. 2.01, how can i play homebrew games?

thank you
you can email me or leave it here
thanks
You will need the real retail version of GTA:LCS for v2.60. ISO image and all that good tweaks are mainly for v1.5 fw. Save money and grab the GTA retail because once you learn how to use this its all worth it… Have fun and play safe..
rick hey bro why do i need the retail version i thought homebrew games is for playing the games with out buying them, so i have to buy the games to play homebrew games, “dame” i dont understand maybe you can leave me a comment,
Please read everything as you come aboard this site its very useful if learning to play with homebrews and all that cool stuff…
Please use google to search for how tos on PSPs
Goodluck and email me at Sincereguy81@aol.com since this site is listed in my spam folder and I do not check it often…
Hi,
Very new to all this so not sure how easy it is.
I have v2.50 and was wondering how I downgrade to V2.00 and is it possble to go to v1.50 after?
ie,
2.50 > 2.00 >1.50
Sorry If I sound thick i’ve just read so must info my brain is a whirl.
Thanks.
i have downloaded the software and put it onto my psp. when i go on gta, the save does not come up
make sure you get eloader096, it should self install.
and use uo_Snes9x_002y32, for your SNES emulations, it works great, just set it to skip 2 frames, and 4:3 aspect. games run at a descent speed. does anyone know the best nes & gba emulators for the GTA eboot? i have a version of jnes that runs fine, but i have trouble shutting down the psp.
I’ve been lookin around the web for the longest time and just cant seem to find an “easy” step-by-step on how to do these things. I know nothing about these things and how to do anything. I you can oh so help me(anyone) can you email me and possibly give some good pics on where these things go(emulators/roms)
thanks a bunch

Use the new NesterJ NES Emulator v1.10 overwrite the old one which should been v1.07 I think..
setting options is like Snes but the thing is no more D-pad but this is the best one I have because YOU can Exit to PSP Menu now.. Enjoy!
Hay all ya peeps i juz wanna say thanks to all you people that make it possible for homebrew things to work!! i juz wanna say that is kinda crap that you got to have a copy of GTA b4 anything works!! lets hope that all you hackers out there will make your magic happen thanks guys you rock!!!
Ok i have followed the tutorial… and when i am on the home page of the PSP i can see the e loader mario thingy, but i do not no how to load it up and play games.
Even when i load up GTA and try to select slot 5, it wont let me because it only shows my previous game save. arrrgh please help (Highflyerhardy@aol.com)
when you have succesfully installed the e-loder, even if you have no homebrew games in the folder can you still load it up through GTA.
Can someone also tell where to download usable games and can you use all types of games eg FIFA Street or do they have to be small classic games. (Colinfinnerty@aol.com)
I have tried the eloader, but all i get is a black screen after I choose the homebrew, am I doing something wrong, or is it that it doesn’t work on all?
plus my psp turns off after like 8 seconds
can anyone tell me where i can get the games for the emulator? preferably snes ones.
thankyou
Some emulators still has bugs or haven’t found a way to fix it this is why you cannot exit on some emulators. If your games freezes after prolong play this is usually normal as to your memory, rom, scan isn’t all perfect. I sometime get this with rom BINS.
Let just hope in the neear future someone has an update. Email me for solution… Sincereguy81@aol.com
otherwise I cannot help…
Do Not ask for roms here, use This http://www.Google.com it isn’t that hard… Stop being a lazy a$$. Learn to read because thats the most important part of learning to use the homebrews and apps and HOW TO’s.
