Well, we heard about the Datel's tool and so on, but now, it's time for a new official firmware. This update has nothing in it other than some "PSN bug fixes".
“This update improves system software stability during use of some features, including the PlayStation Store.”
I know this may sound crazy, but according to Datel, they've managed to create a battery tool that can be used to hack PSP 3000 units. Credits to darkypoop for this piece of information. Thanks man :)
This tool is known as the "Datel’s Lite Blue Tool Service Mode Battery." However, this piece of development has not been yet confirmed, so fingers crossed eh? Continue to read more about this and understand how they actually accomplished this feat.

Do you have a tiresome friend who keeps messing up your game whenever you leave it in standby mode? Well, I do, but I'm not complaining anymore, because Torch, a developer from India, has released a brand new tool which allows you to set up a "suspend-mode password".
Ever felt like playing a prank on your friend who keeps getting you?
Wait no more as the latest version of TrickBrick is out! This time around,it's TrickBrick v3.
This simple looking tool is designed to trick your friends into believing that it actually is going to install a fresh 4.01m33 firmware to their psp. What they do not know is that this tool actually is a mimic of it. The concept is very simple. Your friend wants his psp to be upgraded to 4.01m33. He brings his psp to your house, and you do the silent work. Run this tool, and scare the daylight out of him.
This version also includes a feature that prevents the end user from sending his psp into standby mode and also from exiting the homebrew (Home button). This makes this whole thing much more scarier. read more »
