The breakthrough was made by Datel (*gasp*), thanks to their newest tool battery that will put the PSP 3K into service mode. Okay, what does this exactly do? According to their post, service mode allows you to downgrade your PSP for you to do whatever you may want to do with it, basically.
So. Here's the deal. In order for you to enable the service mode on your PSP 2K and 3K models, you'll need Datel's new crypto processor based battery called the Lite blue Tool battery.
*Advert flash* But wait! There's more! It comes with toggle options between a service mode and normal mode, as well as a built in LED power gauge feature! Datel's Lite Blue Tool comes to your nearest store on November 28th for a mere US$ 19.99 (UK) and US$ 29.99 (NA).
Datel - 배터리를 만들었군요. 빠르면 11월 28일쯤부터 판다는 이야기네요.
( 예전부터 닭알군과 몇몇 해커들이 만든것을 팔아 먹던 곳입니다. 참고하시길. )
Great! Security down, scan lines to go.
Huge thanks to tipster Vexor!

We've got a statement right here, from Alek of the Dark_AleX forums, and he's obviously not gonna go into a mad rush to buy one of those things. Here's why:
You might have seen a new Battery that has come into the market, as always with a price and with a good advertising program...
Well, this post is just to answer some mails that i've recieved.
1. To have a LED indicator ON, doesn't means that you can install cfw or hack anything. Remember 088v3 mobos? Right.
2. It's spreading like a timebomb that it can be hacked and so on. Well, what any user can see is an interesting campaign to promote an article that is not yet released. It would be interesting to see.. how about an old "hello world" like on Noobz time, instead of a "buy today" call?
3. Just to remember all this things up, LED indicator ON and nothing on screen means directly what Dark_AleX explained here about the preIPL.
Would be an interesting step, indeed, in case that the protection on 3k would be sort of a signal encryption or a change of protocol instead of just a change of the battery pin communication system; so, until more proofs come into play, i would not definetly go in a rush to buy it xD.
We'll be keeping you posted on more updates on this one as they come rolling in. In the meantime, hold your horses and keep it locked here in QJ.
