Don't pull your hair out - use the 3.01 DevHook Firmware Installer

Posted Dec 5, 2006 at 10:37AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Firmware, Homebrew Applications Tags: Booster, DevHook, Noobz, psp firmware
Ó

PSPWith everyone seemingly running up the walls with excitement now that Booster has allowed homebrew users to emulate firmware 3.01 under DevHook, you may have been left behind in the wake of applications such as the launcher port for 2.71 HEN-D and hybrid firmwares. We are also aware that after the release of DevHook v0.51 yesterday, some users were pulling their hair out as to how to install the latest DevHook.


Despite some extensive tutorials about DevHook v0.51 installation, it still proved an impossible task for some users. So today, tommydanger has come along and provided a 3.01 DevHook Firmware Installer in EBOOT form just for you.


That's right, no PSARDumper required, just you, a PSP, and the 3.01 update EBOOT.PBP. It's completely legal as it does not contain any dumped firmware files but will in fact do to your PSP what PSARDumper does to a PC. Here's what tommydanger said:

To decrypt the FW files you no longer need to extract the PSAR file from the update, the Installer will take care of this. It also moves the FW files to the right directory, you no longer have to move them by hand, and to finish off, it installs the F1 folders so you don't get the Blue Screen of Death.


Now doesn't that sound easy? That's because it is! Just download the 3.01 update from our download site, download the 3.01 DevHook Firmware Install, and you're done. This application is based on PSAR Dumper by PspPet, Dark_AleX, and Team Noobz and this version has been specifically made for the 3.01 Update, but tommydanger is working on a version that will support all updates. Have fun emulating 3.01!

# quesionGuest 2006-12-05 12:01
i dont get it, why cant Devhook 0.51 just be like the 0.46 with easy installer? or like the 1.63 update just replace DH? is 3.01 firmware that different from the past?



also, will this installer write to the flash?

# 2.82+Guest 2006-12-05 12:23
I read somewhere that firmware 2.8+ needs to be psardumped on the individual psp because it is somehow getting info from YOUR psp and adding it to the firmware files, which is why you cant copy a full install to another psp and have it work. Not sure the exacts, but its something like that.



Biggest success trick i had was remove ALL old devhook files from the memory stick, for some reason renaming dh to DHOLD and deleting the folders from game didnt allow me a successful load of .51...but deleting those files and starting over worked great.

# @ FuntimePSPowner Guest 2006-12-05 12:39
The installer does the work of psar, (dumping the memstick firmware) then the work of X-flash 16g (dumping the firmware in the onboard flash) and then transfers the files to where they need to be to work with Devhook. That's why he said he could make it for 2.82 firmware

# Name?Guest 2006-12-05 13:19
Two problems:



What does the name of the eboot have to be called?

And secondly I am running 2.71 SE-c but when I put these files into game150 it shows a corrupted icon. This doesnt happen when I put it in the game folder. Could this be causing my problem of the program not being able to find the update?

this works on 2.71 SE-C. i just used it and it worked perfectly for me.



Name the 3.01 update "EBOOT.PBP" and place it in the root of your memory stick



copy over this application to your GAME folder



copy over the 3 devhook files



and then making sure your 2.71 SE-C is in 1.50 kernel mode, start up the app, and then it should work.

# maaaaanGuest 2006-12-05 14:48
its not that it confuses me its just that when i try to emulate a firmware it says reboot system and shuts down. dont know if it is happening to anyone else but its driving me insane. it could possibly be one of my plugins for se-c possibly mp3.prx ill get back if it does. hello.prx doesnt shut off when i use it also kinda wierd but amusing, with lcscheat device i cant play emulators or and when i have the mp3.prx for in games text (the correct file) it doesnt work and it makes my flash videos sound not work either. oh and when i turn on the music in the xmb some songs skip forward in a chipmunchy voice.. well that wraps it up

I started with a freshly formatted memory stick and followed the instructions exactly, three times. Here's the error message that I receive after pressing X at the "press [X] to install firmware 3.01 for devhook":



Looking for Update Eboot on ms0:/eboot.pbp

Unable to open update Eboot

Sure it's there?!

auto-exiting in 10 seconds



I have a 1.5 original firmware PSP and have been using devhook 0.46 in the past without any issues.



I guess I'm missing something. Is anybody capable of posting a mature, non-insulting response to this issue?

# Nice!uhoh_hotdogs 2006-12-05 16:45
I am by no way an idiot and I installed DevHook manually yesterday, no matter what settings I used (flashed the DevHook files onto my PSP, didn't flash the files, etc.) and despite the fact that I dumped the firmware personally with my own PSP it would simply not work.



This installer worked 100% and I'm on 3.01 right now. My only complaint is that for whatever odd reason the confirm button is switched from X to O. I downloaded the firmware here from PSPUpdates, perhaps it was the Japanese firmware?

Yeah you need to place the 3.01 update.pbp file in the root of the ms and rename it eboot.pbp then the updater will find it and start the unpack.

Thanks for this method. It is very simple and works flawlessly.

I appreciate you effort in helping out the community with

the simplicity of this updater.





My only issues are:



The X & O buttons got swapped. I have a USA retail

system, not a japanese system, so this is very annoying

but still works.



And, Internet doesn't work! I tried to enter all my info

manually to ensure correct setup but this is the message I

keep getting:



A connection error has occured.

(80410D17)



So I do have 3.01FW just can't multiplay online with any

cool games or surf the net.



Doesn anybody else have this problem with internet?

Is there a fix? or is there something I did wrong while

installing? and and the X & O be swapped back?



Thanks Tommyboy for the great updater, keep it up.

# lazy?Guest 2006-12-06 05:11
I don't think all of them are lazy. It's just that if people see alot of steps they become worried about making a mistake and bricking their PSP's. Not everyone who owns a PSP has computer knowledge. I actually charge people to put emulators and roms on their PSP's for this very reason, that and they don't want to spend the time to do it.

# RSS ChannelsGuest 2006-12-06 06:24
Does anyone else have problems with adding RSS channels? I've tried adding them and even adding the sample channel but when I go to the RSS channel tab it says "There are no channels", like it's not storing them. Can anyone confirm that this works? Thanks

# this doesnt workGuest 2006-12-06 07:25
this definitely doesnt work because it doesnt run the programs since it says they are corrupted.....this doesnt work with 3.01 nubs

# ...Guest 2006-12-06 07:43
hm. actually 3.01 is probably the easiest firmware to install manually. just dump with psar dumper and copy ms0:/f0 to ms0:/dh/301/f0

# Initial SetupGuest 2006-12-06 12:28
Thank you for the easy installer! The only issue I have is that it boots to the initial setup screen, where I have to enter the language, time zone, time/date, and nickname. Is there any way around that?

# Just wanted...Guest 2006-12-08 04:49
To point out that I had enormous problems with the naming of the catalogues on my SE-C psp. I renamed them to:



SCE__301_dh_fw

SCE__301_dh_fw%



and put them in game150 and then got recongnised and I was able to get them to run, might help a few people having problems with SE-C and these devhook files.

Hey Bob, well this is a freakin late reply but if u've figured it out, juz screw this reply.



I was worried that it won't be able to support a 4GB stick (b4 I bought it), but I juz bought one recently here in Japan. Used DH 0.51 (then 0.51.100) emulated 3.02...it works fine. So dun sweat bout it...in case ur still wondering... ;) Cheers!
