Submission + - HEN TIFF exploit cracks PSP-3000 open for homebrew

indrora writes: "The PSP community was rocked hard this weekend by the HEN Homebrew Enabler from developers Davee and Bubbletune. One of their friends on the Team Typhoon development team posted a YouTube video showing proof of the TIFF Exploit running on Firmware 5.03, changing firmware version and MAC address for a reboot. This comes after a picture of gpSP running on a PSP-3000 via the HEN Exploit.
From the QJ.net article:

First things first: No, Davee hasn't finished the HEN yet. Which means it isn't out yet. What we do have today is some visual confirmation that the HEN can indeed run emulators, in this case the GBA emulator gpSP.

And the more recent article showing the exploit demo video:

Be patient, everyone. Davee's HEN Kernel exploit will eventually arrive given time. To tide over that wait, here's a little video demonstrating the 5.03 HEN in action. This one was posted by Granite, one of the beta testers of Davee (Team Typhoon).

"This is a demo of the 5.03 firmware running the tiff exploit and booting into a HEN environment on a PSP 2003 (3000 Support also) on 5.03 Official Firmware. This proves that the code survives a reboot and the system software and MAC address can be changed. This is something that only can be done with a kernel exploit. A video launching homebrew will be posted later."

Hopefully, We'll have PSP-3000's playing Homebrew games and running PSP uCLinux."
