Ico Applicator changelog

v1.50 · May 31, 2007

The homebrew developer duo of Jojodu0010 and Marc6310 just released a new version of their project Ico Applicator. Basically, what this program does is change the icons the PSP's memory stick displays when it's connected to a PC unit. One good feature of this app is that it doesn't tinker with the flash of your handhelds.

For example, the rather boring "Removable Disk" icon will appear whenever you hook up your PSP to a PC and turn its USB mode. With Ico Applicator installed, the said icon will be changed to a PSP icon. Pretty nifty, if you ask us. As for the changes, here's the changelof for Ico Applicator v2:

  • Better management of the RAM
  • Addition of the logo of our TEAM
  • Addition of 11 additional icons
  • You can remove the icon and return to your good old Removable Disk icon
  • You can now choose the name of your reader which was automatically called "My PSP" in the first version
  • Almost more spelling mistakes in the homebrew [We think what they mean was "less spelling mistakes"]

Just like the last time, there are two different versions available for both FW 1.50 and FW SE/OE users. Installation is pretty much similar to the first version so we know that you know well what to do.

v2007-05-28 · May 28, 2007

PSP homebrew developers Jojodu0010 (Duck-hunt) and Marc6310 (To The Top) have just announced the release of a new application, titled Ico Applicator. This app will allow users to change the icon that their PSP's memory stick displays when it's hooked up to a PC, and carries 60 different icons to choose from.

As for controls: Pressing the directional keys or the analog move the onscreen cursor, pressing "X" selects an icon, pressing L/R moves between the selection pages, while "Start" will exit the app. To get Ico Applicator working:

  1. Download the corresponding bundle (firmware 1.5, or fw SE/OE)
  2. Unzip the file, and unload its contents into the GAME/GAME150 folder.
  3. Run the application
  4. Choose an icon
  5. Exit the app
  6. Connect your PSP to a PC via USB mode

If you followed the instructions correctly, the icon you picked out should display in place of the generic disk icon. Before you guys get started, we advise users to take heed - we've attempted to run this app off both PSP 3.40 OE and PSP fw 1.5, and were unable to get it to work.

We're unsure if this might be an isolated case, although in case other users report the same prob, we'd really appreciate it if somebody could mention a good workaround. This application's still an early release, so we advise users to keep alert for any updates. With that said, enjoy the download!
