Quick question:

Is that PSAR Dumper file that's linked in the tutorial the correct one to be used for 3.01 firmware? I downloaded the 3.00 new mod version from QJ and am using that to dump.

EDIT: and for the past 2 times I tried doing this, I got an error message when I'm finished using the PSAR Dumper app. Says something like one file couldn't be decoded or something like that. Is that normal?

---

It's the right one, it works for all FW eboots.

Zitat von KiLL CraZy

When I launch a UMD/game in .51 it crashes in gameboot... Any fix?

---

Reinstall.

Zitat:

Zitat von ElectrricShockerX

ok now i only get the inital setup screen when i start devhook.51 is there anything i can do to fix this

---

Dunno, reinstall maybe :p

Zitat:

Zitat von Porkape

I am having same problem as ElectrricShockerX, I have to change all my settings in 2.71 SE-C after pressing O to repair the BSOD in DH 0.51. I think I'll wait for a day or so until some of this can be sorted out.

---

It works for me, you gotta be doing something wrong.

It won't work for me. It usually goes to that one blue screen that comes whenever you update your firmware, the one that tells you that your settings are corrupted. Then it restarts, or sometimes, just stays off. Whenever a new version of Devhook comes out, I try to install it, but nothing ever works for me. I followed ALL of the steps CAREFULLY. When I try to do steps 18-21, it gives errors like this:

Mkdir flash0:/dh/301/kd/resource:Err 80010002

and this:

Copy ms0:/dh/301/f0/kd/resource/big5_table.dat:create error

and this:

flash write protect

Can someone please help me? Thanks in advance.

---

Try reformatting memory stick, or try the option to remove it from flash1, then follow the setps.

Ok I would like to file an official confirmation that HEN D DOES NOT WORK with the Devhook .51 at least

The reason has something to do with emulating 1.50

Whenever you emulate 1.50 Devhook .51 seems to act like Devhook .46 and spits you back to 1.50. It has nothing to do with HEN just 1.50 emulation

Those confirmations listed in the guide were made with the hex edited devhooks.

Even in the thread cited, I could not find a single instance of a HEN user confirming that it works.

I've have just used the most recent version of Devhook which allows co-existence with older versions.

Whenever you emulate 1.50 it will not allow you to boot the newer firmwares and just dumps you back into 1.50

Heck try it for yourself. Emulate 1.50 and attempt to load 3.01 or even 2.71.
It will just send you back.

Sorry for sounding so negative. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I can't help but feel that I'm not.

---

It works now, check the front page.

when i try go to flashrom and try to install flash 1 ...its says devhook isnt installed on ms0;dh/kd/ ..so wats wrong with this?

---

It means you didn't install it right.

Zitat:

Zitat von Zealot_124984

can u have a custom firmware installed and install this, yes i searched

---

What custom firmware? It works with all the 2.71 SE.

Zitat von Ranger613

this is the menu i get from devhook when about to flash (ac adapter plugged in)
:install config files
'mso:/dh/301/f1 to 'flash1:/dh301
devhook ins't installed in flash0:
devhook isn't installed in flash1:
flash0: and flash1: can install an only one firmware version.
If tgere us annother version already, remove before install.
This operation write flash1: device
flash1 was writeen in normal psp operatino
but psp never boot when that the reigstry file can't initalize
connect both Ac power and the battery
And Don't touch PSP aboslutely untill this operation finish.

Press Circle button and hold 1seconds to start

press other button to cancel"

Is this is waht everyone else gets? (im in 1.5)

Much appreciated

---

Yeah, that's the step where you hold 'O'

Zitat:

Zitat von Ranger613

this is during step 19, i go to flash install press circle press circle to "install configfile to flash1" then i get all the stuff up above, I AM WONDERING IF THIS IS WHAT EVERYONE ELSE GETS, IF NO TELL ME

UMD booting doesn't work for me... It freezes at gameboot.

Any help? I am very desperate!

Works for me, reinstall.

For devhook 0.51, do I have to do a hard reboot every time to go back to 2.71 se-c or is there an easier way?

---

No, it's in the FAQ, read it.

Zitat:

Zitat von Psyclone

For what it's worth, I'm running a straight 1.5 fw psp, never had any custom firmware installed. With dh .50, I did not have to flash the onboard f1 with the f1 from the memstick and it worked fine. With .51, I was getting the looping 'corrupted settings' screen. It would just reboot back to it every time. Once I went through with the load config to F1 step within devhook, it worked like a champ.

---

Yep.

Zitat:

---

Zitat von pl4t

i would like to ask 1 question.
with this devhook .51, will i be able to switch back freely to FW 1.5 like previous devhooks..
sorry it's a stupid question though but i just want to make sure.. (,^^)
so everytime i turn on my psp it will run FW 1.5 then i have to choose the devhook .51 to emulate FW 3.1 is it? or it will automatically emulate FW 3.1?

thx in advance

---

No, DH .51 can't emulate 1.50

Zitat von LastDance

can we apply chunglam's mod on this .51?

Don't know what you're talking about.

Zitat von Tragik

hell I'm having a new problem now, according to the hot to here it sas if you can't get the internet to work, then devhook isn't installed right, well I can get everything working BUT the internet (main reason I wanted this one anyway was for Socom FTB2 and bleh eror with browser) any ideas on what to do?

---

Internet works for me

Zitat:

Zitat von Norkusa

I'm also having freeze-up problems when trying to load a game. Seems like it's just for newer games like 2.81 and up though (like the Sega Genesis Collection).

Is this a problem with DevHook or should I re-install?

---

It works for me.

Zitat:

Zitat von taekwondokid

well i followed the ins. but still DAMN IT doesnt work!!! i donno what the prob. is... i uninstalled and installed it like more than 5 times and still doesnt work...
i am using a v1.5 and hargey's custom fw...

---

You try copying the f0 folder on the root of your stick to the one in the 301 folder? I hear that worked for some people.

Zitat von Ceno

I installed the new devhook .51, everything seems to run just fine, overclocking works like a charm as well. There is just one problem tho. Whenever I try to exit a game via the home button, the psp shuts down instead of exiting the game back to the main psp menu. Does this happen to anyone else? It's a tad frustrating to have to boot the psp everytime I want to play a different umd game with firmwares higher than 1.50 :neutral:

---

That's because you need to find the 1.50 reboot.bin, or dump it yourself.

Zitat von kerimeton

im on SE-C, and it wont work, i tried so much stuff, and all i get is a darn black screen

i dumped with "X" (as it says in the instrutions)
i dumped with "[]"

i flashed my config files, with hte one from the devhook folder
and with my own flash1 dump

i dont know, i wont work

---

Don't do flash1 dump, it is problematic.

Anyone figure out why booting ripped games keep crashing for some people? I got 3.01 loaded and running (WiFi + web browser works too) but my PSP keeps crashing whenever I try to load a ISO/CSO (ripped from UMD's that I already own, of course).

---

Can't help you with ISO's here.

Zitat:

Zitat von Qwest

need some help is this all possible if you have the original sony 3.01 firmware
on your psp.

I ask this because my brother updated his firmware 3 day's ago
and now he want to use devhook.

---

You can't run this on 3.01, or any homebrew for that matter.

Zitat von dualshock

hi,

i would like to thank harddrive for such meticulous and complete guide...got mine done in less than 10 mins...thanks alot

however, i do have a small tiny question...if i were to have 2 or more iso in the ISO folder, how would i switch between the iso files without having to restart the devhook emulation?

thanks

---

Can't help with ISO's.

Zitat von hollah

i have followed the guide 3 times now and get same error everytime.
i get past the data.psar part and copying f0 across. ( i have done this with a 3.01 data.psar and a 2.82 data.psar with same results) then goto start devhook in xmb. gets the psp gameboot and then nothing. just sits there then eventually will turn off psp.
can anyone help with this.

settings for psp are: 2.71 SE-C , GAME , GAME150 - in recovery mode configuration states - game folder homebrew (currently : 1.50 kernel)

are these ok, devhook 5 did run ok.

---

It's cause your SE-C is configed wrong. Put all homebrew in the GAME folder, and change that GAME150 folder to GAME271. Read the SE-C guide in my sig for more details, under how do i load homebrew.

Ugh, I just read 20 pages and answered them (notice all the answers above). What's your question?

I've tried everything I can. I've redumped, reinstalled, restore default settings, and flashed the flash1 with and without 2.71 files. Know how to fix 3.01 in Devhook to stop bringing up the BSoD.

You know with System Settings and WiFi.

Great work hardrive, you have been busting your ass with this thread and I just wanted ot mention it.:)

Wow. I've got SE-C and it works for me... Did you try this thing, it just came out:

I've got mine working now (apart from WiFi), but you say that DevHook creates your f1 folder. I followed your guide step by step and didn't get an f1 folder. I had to use xflash to dump flash1, and use xflash again to dump my registry settings, and flash both of these in order to get it work. I'm on SE-C, so what could I have been doing differently?

Oh, well, at least it works. Only thing that doesn't is WiFi, but I can always use 2.71 SE-C's stuff I suppose.

OK thank you Dark_Alex! Gracias

Well anyway HEN D undoubtly works with Devhook now

It doens't create it FOR you. There will be a f1 folder when you extract the DH.rar file, and after installing the flashrom, that's all you need.

If you mean DH0510000.rar, then there is NO f1 folder, and I got it from the link you provided.

Okay. So that installer stopped the BSoD. But why did it swap button placement for me?

DevHook always has swapped my buttons.

You must have used a Japan eboot.

To anybody that is getting BSoD's / random errors, I've edited the guide, try method #1

Matters. Is the 3.01 EBOOT at dl.qj.net the Japanese EBOOT?

Dunno, I used the one at the Sony site, because yesterday dl.qj.net was all laggy.

The QJ.net one doesn't switch my buttons

I'll try the one at another PSP site. Won't say because it has ISO Loaders.

Okay. That one swapped my buttons and one from Network Update swapped my buttons and the PSP isn't from Japan.

Yes, as stated in the first post of this guide

this "easy installer" thing

i renamed the 3.01 update EBOOT.PBP

says it cant find it

then i tried eboot.pbp << notice the small case

no success

then eboot.PBP

still nothing it says unable to open update sure its there

im like YES I KNOW ITS THERE IV JUST PUT IT THERE

what am i doing wrong ?

Zitat von TheMysteriousThug

I flashed the config file and still can't get WiFi working. I've restore default settings. I've reinstalled and re-dumped. What could I be doing wrong?

---

Wifi doesn't work if you have your psp clocked at a higher
level. restart devhook and set the cpu to default,
then start 3.00 again.

EDIT: Ignore that, the forums messed up and sent me all the way to page 68
without me knowing.

It's one of two scenarios.
1) It's not in the root folder. Make sure that the EBOOT.PBP is next to the PSP folder in directory view.
2) Your extensions are messed up (your PC recognises .PBP, so it hides it). Try renaming it to just EBOOT

@Hardrive : The 3.01 firmware installer works on HEN-D when emulating 1.5. I did it then ran the dev hook launcher for 2.71 and it emulated 3.01 just fine.

Ah, good point, I didn't think of that.

i just used the auto dh firmware instaler (method 1) i worked but gave me the jap button setup where X is O and O is X

can anyone help

Same here. O and X are switched.

I am having a problem. I am emulating 3.01 and I load socom ftb2 and when I goto install the update my psp locks up and shuts off.

emulates fine, but it makes me go through the 3.01 initial settup everytime i start devhook, any thoughts as to why?

Can anyone help me? when i boot into 3.01 from devhook, i can find my games. I find a socom ftb2 cso in ms0:/ISO but it doesnt appear under games. Does devhook only play iso files?

Thanks for this guide! 3.01 works like a charm!
