| 1 | +KeyCleaner v1.4 by Chilly Willy |
| 2 | +=============================== |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | +To install, just copy the KeyCleaner folder in the archive to your memstick. |
| 5 | +If you run this with HEN or on the Slim PSP, copy to the GAME folder. If you |
| 6 | +use a custom firmware, copy to the GAME150 folder. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +To use, run like normal homebrew. The first screen tells you the motherboard |
| 9 | +and region to which the IdStorage is set. You then have three choices: exit |
| 10 | +by pressing the CIRCLE button, analyze the IdStorage keys by pressing the |
| 11 | +CROSS button, or dump the IdStorage keys by pressing the SQUARE button. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +The first time you dump the keys, it creates a folder called 'keys', then dumps |
| 14 | +the keys into it. If you choose to dump the keys again, the 'keys' folder will |
| 15 | +be renamed, and a new 'keys' folder created. You can keep dumping the keys until |
| 16 | +you have dumped them 10,000 times, or you run out of memory on the memstick. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +If you press the CROSS button, you will be taken to the Analyze Keys screen. |
| 19 | +You can choose to analyze the keys as if the motherboard were a TA-079/81, |
| 20 | +as if it were a TA-082/86, or as if it were a TA-085. I made this selectable |
| 21 | +in case the IdStorage keys identify the motherboard incorrectly. It will tell |
| 22 | +you which motherboard it thinks it is in the top line. If you aren't sure, |
| 23 | +press the SQUARE button to view a picture that shows how to tell which you |
| 24 | +have. It is a picture of the back of a PSP (mine) with the UMD door open. The |
| 25 | +red rectangle is the area of concern. If you have 'IC1003' printed upside down |
| 26 | +on the motherboard in that area, you have a TA-082/86. If not, you have a |
| 27 | +TA-079/81. Please note that all current Slim PSPs are TA-085. Press any key to |
| 28 | +return to the Analyze Keys screen. You can choose 'Analyze TA-079/81' on a |
| 29 | +TA-082/86, just don't choose to fix any keys it says are bad because it will |
| 30 | +fix them as if the PSP were a 79/81. If you DO fix them as a 79/81, you can |
| 31 | +select to analyze the keys as a TA-082/86 to fix them. The reverse is true |
| 32 | +if you have a TA-079/81. Please don't mess with the keys on a Slim at this |
| 33 | +time as only a few of the keys can be fixed with this version. Specifically, |
| 34 | +keys 4, 5, 6, 0x42, 0x46, and 0x47. If you mess up any other keys, you won't |
| 35 | +be able to fix them in KeyCleaner at this time. |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +If you choose 'Analyze TA-082/86' (then main reason you probably got this), |
| 38 | +it will print a status of the keys associated with downgrading and tell you |
| 39 | +if it thinks there is a problem. If you see 'Congratulations! Your keys |
| 40 | +appear to be fine.', then your keys are fine. Note that 'fine' means key |
| 41 | +5 has been patched using my method. If key 5 is patched a different way, |
| 42 | +it'll tell you key 5 is bad and give you the option of fixing it. It isn't |
| 43 | +REALLY bad, I'm just encouraging people to use my method of patching. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +If the IdStorage isn't okay, with key 5 patched my way, it will check for |
| 46 | +common corruption from downgraders. It currently recognizes the original |
| 47 | +hard-down method, the original (2.71) soft-down method, and the NOOBZ (2.80 |
| 48 | +and 3.03) soft-down method. If the IdStorage matches one of those downgrade |
| 49 | +methods, it then goes to the Fix Keys screen. You will be asked if you |
| 50 | +REALLY wish to attempt fixing the keys. If you tell it to do so, it then |
| 51 | +fixes all corrupted keys. This version of KeyCleaner can fix ALL the keys |
| 52 | +without any files, so you don't need any other files as in previous versions. |
| 53 | +If one of the common downgrader methods is not recognized, KeyCleaner then |
| 54 | +checks certain individual keys that are commonly bad for one reason or |
| 55 | +another. This version of KeyCleaner can fix keys 4, 5, 6, 0x42, 0x43, 0x46, |
| 56 | +and 0x47. If key 0x46 or 0x47 don't exist, it will create it, then fix it. |
| 57 | +Old TA-079 PSPs often are missing 0x46 and 0x47. That is fine - it is the |
| 58 | +way those PSPs were. Don't feel you have to fix those two keys. |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +If the analysis shows all the keys to be fine, and key 5 patched with my |
| 61 | +method, it will ask if you wish to unpatch key 5. Do NOT do that unless |
| 62 | +you have the custom IPL or are running your TA-082/86 on official Sony |
| 63 | +firmware with HEN (homebrew enabler) or you WILL brick the PSP! Given |
| 64 | +Pandora has made changing the firmware easy, and bricks recoverable, |
| 65 | +KeyCleaner has changed to reflect this. It can unpatch key 5 as part of |
| 66 | +the visible main key handling so that people with the custom IPL or people |
| 67 | +wishing to run 3.30 or newer Sony firmware have an easy way to clean up |
| 68 | +their keys and unpatch key 5. If you aren't sure if your PSP will run |
| 69 | +with an unpatched key 5, DO NOT UNPATCH IT!! |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +This version of KeyCleaner will load the background and text colors from |
| 72 | +the file "textcolors.bin". If the file is missing, it will default to the |
| 73 | +old color scheme - white text on a black background. The new colors in the |
| 74 | +textcolors.bin supplied are white text on a warm blue background. The way |
| 75 | +to change the colors is to load textcolors.bin into a hex editor and change |
| 76 | +it as follows: |
| 77 | + |
| 78 | +Byte 0: 00 |
| 79 | +Byte 1: red intensity for background (00 to FF) |
| 80 | +Byte 2: green intensity for background (00 to FF) |
| 81 | +Byte 3: blue intensity for background (00 to FF) |
| 82 | +Byte 4: 00 |
| 83 | +Byte 5: red intensity for text (00 to FF) |
| 84 | +Byte 6: green intensity for text (00 to FF) |
| 85 | +Byte 7: blue intensity for text (00 to FF) |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +For example, the contents of the default textcolors.bin is: |
| 88 | +00 20 60 A0 00 FF FF FF |
