How to HACK your Playstation Classic - FULL GUIDE with Autobleem

This video will show you, step by step, in a full guide, how to hack or mod your Playstation Classic using the latest version of Autobleem. This is going to be done assuming you have never done a mod on your playstation classic before, but if you have and you want to uninstall the bleemsync or project eris kernels, see the link below.

Don't have the tools you need?

Just a word of *CAUTION* to anyone using the included Kernel Installer Tool. The tool will *DELETE* without any warning, any LBOOT.EPB on the root of the USB storage device. So if say for example; You use your personal USB drive to mod another Playstation Classic console, maybe a friends so they can use OTG, and you use the included tool to create a backup of that system it will *OVERWRITE* any existing backups with no warning or prompt as shown in the AutoBleem 1.0.0 logs (Exec:rm -rf /media/LBOOT.EPB). Just make sure to move or rename your backup before starting. I suggest using the serial number of the Playstation Classic as part of the name to avoid mixing them up.

This was posted one hour before I started modding my console for the first time - it's fate! Thank you so much!

Such fun memories hooking mines up back in 2019 using your guides. It just sits there now, but if I'm ever feeling the mood to dive into some retro games, it's right there. Still get overwhelmed thinking about what this tiny machine can do when you mod it, and how convenient it is.

Thank you for this video, I was a bit scared of doing this but I followed this video and I'm over the moon with the result

A Tutorial for Adding Multi Disk Games would be good for everyone, as many people are still confused on the Correct way to do this and no one really shows how it is done properly, Many Thanks!!

Spent the last week tinkering with Project Eris (I'm new to modding), but something in there wouldn't let me run RA or open games in ES whatsoever and the lack of info anywhere was frustrating. Uninstalled PE, followed this video for Autobleem and bam, I can open RA and everything is running as I'd expect. Thanks for making this as simple as possible!

The PS Classic is where my interest in modding systems started, and I couldn't have done it without your guides! I've since modded a switch, and most recently an Xbox series s. My PS classic doesn't get alot of use now sadly, but it's by far the most cost effective console to mod!

Thanks bro 👍 another awesome tutorial. I probably pick up another PS classic. Perfect nostalgic gift 🎁.

can you please explain if you use a 64gb flash drive (4:36), you format it then use a back up, then on 13:12 it shows the GAMES folder on the same 64gb flash drive its 70.8gb ??

After chatting with someone in the Discord room, found that the kernel install doesn't prevent the need for booting from the USB. The USB is needed always. Autobleem merely flashes upgrades to Sony's firmware to allow OTG/Wifi/Bluetooth. Also, once the kernel is flashed, an OTG cable is an absolute non-negotiable requirement, not an option. The underpowered front USBs don't put out enough current to read the USB stick. I ran into this problem after flashing the kernel and even recreated the USB stick...this PSC will never boot again until I get an OTG cable. Buy an OTG cable before you get started to avoid extreme frustration. Also buy a power supply with its own switch so you don't have to yank the power cable so often.

To anyone having trouble with the multi disk games you cannot use anything like .chd or .pbp for multi disk games. You can only use straight up .bin and .cue files. Like mentioned in this video, you just drop the bin and cue files for all the disks of the game straight into the "games" folder. Don't sort them in their own folders or zip them. If done right and all bin and cue files are included it should work just fine. I just got resident evil 2 working no problem following this awesome tutorial. I am new to psx mini and autobleem. Thank you for this video it was very helpful! I hope my comment helps somone out there who may still be having issues.

Thank you! This is still working perfectly as of November 2023 - cheers! 😊

I followed all of the steps but when I get to your step on flashing the kernel I get a message that reads “This PSC has not been restored to original condition. Unable to flash, ” and when I added a ps1 game it didn’t show up in the games list, however I added a few N64 games and found them through the retro arch application- they display the game but do not detect the dpad buttons so I am unable to play it right. If you have any advice please let me know, thank you.

Can I connect my ps4/5 controller with a 8bitdo adapter and use Autobleem ?

[ritualdelo]

Restalgia is my go to definitive process guy … Thanks man this is a fantastic tutorial …

[Ganadokiller]

I bought the 128 gb and i cant get to stage where autobleem launches ughhh

[GhostLoco]

when drag and drop games, did you had to extract the folder or do anything to it before you add on to it?

[SC-lctm]

I wonder, is dual shock or analog controllers even capable with ps classic or not? I know it only came with regular original controllers, but i just wonder about using other methods like ps3 controller on it connected via usb

[Kinseliplier]

For me it flashes amber and green but nothing loads on my tv screen and then it just automatically turns off my ps1. How do I fix this?

[madastra]

Good stuff Restalgia. Thanks for putting this together.
