Just a few moments ago Granite released a video showing homebrew running on the PSP-3000 using MatiAz’s TIFF exploit and Davee’s HEN. Davee is the one who recorded the video while Granite was the user responsible for the editing.

The video clearly shows Davee’s PSP running 5.03 OFW, launching HEN and then booting up into the HEN environment. From here he launched a popular PSP homebrew game, Jelly Car, as well as DGEN, a Sega Genesis emulator. We have no solid release date at this time for HEN’s release, however we are expecting it soon.

You can check out the video after the break!

It has been a little more than two weeks since MaTiAz made public the 5.03 Tiff Exploit that got many PSP users attention by running a “Hello World” proof of concept via that exploit. Fast forward to today and Davee and Team Typhoon have been hard at work pushing closer to what every PSP owner with official 5.03 firmware wants, a Homebrew Enabler, or HEN. The above video shows you an official 5.03 firmware PSP 2003 running the Tiff Exploit and booting into a HEN environment. Here are some more details on the video:

The video proves that the code survives a reboot and the system software and MAC address can be changed. This is something that that can only be done with a kernel exploit. A video launching homebrew will be posted later.

So there you have it. Congrats on the outstanding accomplishment to all involved!

Update #2: The TIFF exploit has been updated once again, this time sporting compatibility with both the PSP-1000 and PSP-2000. Although not officially supported, reports also suggest it is working on 3000 units. Hit up the link below to download.

Update: File has been re-uploaded. According to MaTiAz, the wrong h.bin file was uploaded initially. If you had already grabbed the earlier release, simply download this one and replace all files. The “Hello World” message should now display when successfully executed.

The prospect of running homebrew on PSP-3000 units is rapidly inching closer, as homebrew developer MaTiAz has released a TIFF-based exploit in the form of a “Hello World,” proof of concept application.

The exploit is run from the PSP’s photo menu, taking advantage of a vulnerability found in the TIFF image library. Should be quite a familiar process if you were around back in the heyday of the PSP scene, when software-based downgraders were all the rage. Nonetheless, installation instructions can be found in the included readme file. Note that the current version will function only on PSP-1000 units. A separate release is being prepared for Slim models, specifically the PSP-2000 and PSP-3000.

MaTiAZ notes that “a bit of awesomeness” is due out within the coming days, so keep your eyes peeled. After a long wait, the gates to homebrew access on firmware 5.03 have been opened up.
