Mhorphoex has passed by our forums today to inform us that the folks over at PSPlandia.it, and Italian PSP site, have come up with a new flashing application that runs not on your PSP but from the comfort of your PC. First of all the application asks whether you would like to make a backup of your Flash0 folder before any flashing as a safety precaution, and then allows you to flash gameboots, fonts, icons, backgrounds, sounds, waves, icons, volume control styles and more.

This needs the .NET framework 2.0 or higher to run and interfaces to the PSP via USB cable, so make sure you have it connected before you attempt to backup your flash0 or start flashing. Other features of this flashing application include auto-renaming for files, the creation of recovery files in the event you flash something wrong, a tool for conversion of gameboots from MPS to PMF format and much more.

Check out the readme for more info, but be careful as although a backup of flash0 is created it is still possible to brick your PSP whilst flashing so please be careful! Consult our PSP forums if you have any questions on flashing.
