[RELEASE] Flashless Version Changer v2
Edit: This app is outdated, I gave my version and MAC adress changing code to Red_Squirrel, and he released a update: http://forums.qj.net/showthread.php?t=138305

Update: Version 2, changes are Slim support (thanks to Nick48), and automatic spacing to 10 characters

Even though there is no real use in it, it's neat to have your system information show a different firmware Normally you were required to HEX-edit the vshctrl.prx and reflash it, this had some danger (well, not with Pandora now, but heh ). But not anymore, it's all flashless now.

This is a small plugin that allows you to change the version number without any flashing (but in memory, instead), please note that this doesn't allow you to play any new games or use new features, it only changes the version number in system information.

Readme:

-- Flashless Version Changer by JumpR (aka 7-Points)
Coded by JumpR (aka 7-Points), tested on fat PSP by me, FmR and Kwastie.
Tested on Slim by Nick48, great thanks to him for providing me the Slim vshctrl memory dump and allowing me to port it

Very simple plugin to change the version number in 3.90 M33 System Information, enable the plugin and create a vchanger.txt in the root, which you fill with the version you want.
It doesn't need to be a numeric version, you can use anything you want, even complete words But the maximum it can go is 10 bytes, not any longer.

Only compatible with the firmware 3.90 M33, might add other firmwares later.

If you used version 1, there is no longer any need to space it upto 10 characters, it's all fine now



File is attached, have fun with it

Damn. The plugin wont show up in the plugins list!
Im using 3.90M33 - slim and 3.80M33-5 - Phat

+_+

notic: al my other plugins just show up and i added ms0:/seplugins/vchanger.prx to the VSH.txt :|

[Bubbletune]

Strange. If I recall there is a maximum on plugins that show up, try removing some others first. Also, it should work only on 3.90 M33 Classic PSP, I'm not sure if it works on Slim. (but it should atleast show up on all PSP's, no matter what firmware or type)
But please give it a shot. 3.80 M33-5 Classic has been reported to partially work, patching a small portion of the version, some portion not working, and 3.90 M33 Slim remains untested.
