» Updates on the Lite Blue Battery & TA-088v3 PSP Hacks · PSP Homebrew, PSP Downloads, PSP Mods
"So as suspected, that blue Datel battery, it’s a total sham… Well, sort of… When put into service mode on the PSP-3000 it’ll result in nothing but a flashing light and black screen; at least for those sporting a TA-088v3 motherboard. Someone still needs to bypass or hack the pre-IPL hash process. Over at sceners is an update confirming the battery’s falsifications, as well some clarification on hacking the 88v3 IPL –
…it’s confirmed that this over exalted battery will leave 3k at least like the 88v3, just with a flashing light, a black screen and nothing but that LED indicator, as we announced.
…
Now onto the 88v3 IPL. You might remember this post from where part of the signing (there were 2 functions missing) was hacked from Brokencodes; so being as partial as it is, it would be interesting now to say, after reading about it on all the PSP-related webpages, that is NOT conclusive or definitely, so please, be aware that a “hack” for this couple of mobos might need further and longer study.
Now, I shouldn’t say it’s a total fake… The battery likely functions as described on other hackable PSP models, i.e.) the PSP-2000.
