5.55 Firmware protection circumvented. Soul Calibur playable on CFW?

Soul Calibur requires firmware 5.55

Soul Calibur requires firmware 5.55

This news came in from a source that wishes to remain anonymous, according to this individual’s email there are already reports that the apparent 5.55 firmware to block Custom Firmware from having games run from memory sticks has already been broken.

For example the recent , reportedly wasn’t working on Custom Firmware and required firmware 5.55 which blocked it. However its now working on all recent custom firmwares with the help of a simple PPF-O-MATIC patch and a few HEX edits. If you search youtube there is already video proof this..

If this is true, (which it seems to be) its not too good for Sony seeing that their latest Anti custom firmware protection has already been busted so quickly. Hmmm.

    Hey guys,

    I tried it on my 3.50CFWE and its working. Can the thing be done to G.I. JOE Rise of Cobra???

    • aeon44

      G.I Joe for PSP is not that good to play. its dull. its a waste of time playing it even it requires 5.55OFW

    Ripped : update,boot.bin fixed & renamed to eboot.bin

    Extract the ripkit into a folder,Copy your Untouched iso game into same folder,
    rename your Untouched iso to original.iso and double click rip.bat JOB DONE

    Untouched iso must be 859 GB (900,923,392 bytes)

    I have edited the boot.bin and renamed it eboot.bin using the following instructions

    1.extract BOOT.BIN from euro game.

    2.Open extracted BOOT.BIN in hex editor
    from 0x00399AF0 to 0x00399B0B
    hex with zeros MEMSTICK.IND….MSTK_PRO.IND

    at 0x0039A1C9 change text SAVEDATA to PAVEDATA
    at 0x0039C095 change text SAVEDATA to PAVEDATA

    3.rename BOOT.BIN to EBOOT.BIN repack iso. approx 350 MB.
