Homebrew developer, Art, informed us through our forums that he has released the X-Flash Kerrang Build 4. If you have no idea what in the world X-Flash is, then let us give you a background of the the app. This app, when used with caution and enough knowledge, could alter and create a custom firmware for your PSP. Enough knowledge is always the key to using this app-- using it even if you have no idea what in the world you're doing could result to a bricked PSP. So use it at your own risk and remember-- you've been warned.
So going back to the app, the X-Flash program has followed a logical progression, and now features some firmware tools that I did not consider when I started the program. At the time of the V9f update (21/05/06), I decided to finish development of this program in favour of beginning work on another. A little over a month later (24/06/06), I updated this program soon after stumbling onto a forum thread discussing a firmware modification to remove the PSP logo from the gameboot screen. X-Flash V10 was the next major update since, and focus is still toward overall development for late releases.
X-Flash Kerrang build 4 (or X-Flash V13) is actually a special release for testing ASCII hand gesture animations. The developer has beeen focusing toward improving the XMB Menu Label Editor for this X-Flash Kerrang release. With those things stated, let's jump right on to the changelog.
Changelog:
Kerrang Build 4 (29/07/74):
Fixed in program sound effects to come out of both speakers instead of just the left speaker.
Program also displays Mikmod Sound Library version on startup.
Added support for analogue joystick in XMB Menu Editor, Document Reader, and Custom Firmware Configurator.
Improved XMB Label Editor with faster cursor movement, and changed text is hilighted.
Kerrang Build 3 (28/07/06):

Kerrang Build 2 (23/07/06):
New Easter Egg is a hidden hand gesture.
The Easter egg is not unlocked by performing flash write operations.
