Newer UMD Games and Browser come to 1.50 PSP's! *UPDATE* |
Ó

Needless to say Sony has sent a endless stream of firmware updates at the PSP's dedicated fans, thats 6, no make that 7 upgrades to the PSP firmware to date. Don't get me wrong, sometimes the updates are fairly welcome. With the web browser for instance, other times however the update is minor, and somewhat lackluster, even making gamers question the necessity of another update. Think back to yourself, how many times did you contemplate to update your Playstation Portable to a newer firmware simply because Sony required you to have the latest firmware in order to shake down hustlers and go down in history as Liberty City Stories #1 Gangsta. We know we have many times.
Well as they say, if your dreams are not extravagant then they may be answered. Enter Device Hook 0.41 Sample Launcher. Dev Hook is a device redirecting driver created by Booster. The application or firmware emulator as one of its features enables provides support for newer firmwares up to 2.5. This is a new update to what was a somewhat outdated loader, and something that we are sure you will enjoy. When we say enjoy, we mean love, because with this application you will be able to emulate full 2.5 edition PSP Firmware Support.
Defy the Update Machine. Play 2.5 UMD's and Browse the Web with 1.5 Firmware!
Yes, this means full support and access to the Web Browser among other features. Not just that, but think back to when your world trembled beneath you as you realized that playing Grand Theft Auto would require you to leave behind your beloved homebrew and update to a new firmware, albeit our beloved eLoader. Now GTA with full WiFi access, the fully functional web browser, and everything from firmware 2.5 and below can be yours with the latest edition of Device Hook. Oh, and did we forget to mention that WiFi is working (note below) with some minor exceptions? Leading us to believe that once any remaining bugs get ironed out that Location Free would be fully accessible on 1.5 as well.
So just how do you go about running GTA on your 1.5 PSP? We have put together this simple walkthrough below, taking you step by step and you can rest assured you will be enjoying the features that 2.5 firmware provides on your 1.5 PSP. Even before you can "Sony Firmware Update 3.0".

![]() | ![]() |
- Go to the Boot Select Menu and choose "Reboot XMB"
- In the Firmware Menu and select "2.50 + 2.00"
- Next go to UMD Version and make sure it is on "2.xx -> 2.00"
- (optional) Overclock the PSP to "333mhz"
- Finally, in UMD Mount, select "UMD Disk"
- Return to the Device Hook Main Menu and click "Start"
You will need to add the firmware dump from the firmware(s) that you wish to emulate. Included with the application are folders/files that specify the exact location where the files from their respective firmwares should be placed.
Changelog:
- FW2.50 reboot support
- plain20.prx loading location changed
- UMD read stack extension location moved to support FW2.50
Todo:
- FW2.00 No-UMD loading
- FW2.71 reboot
- NAND driver emulation
Note: There are two versions below. The 0.40 update showcases the Dev Hook Installer which allows redirects flash access to the PSP Memory Stick. The 0.41 version does have full 2.5 support, however WiFi is reportedly not functioning. In addition, overclocking was noted to possibly have a negative impact on Wifi. One thing to consider, while using the application it was noted that it might be possible to emulate 2.5 on a 2.0 version PSP allowing newer UMD's to be played on 2.0 PSP's, but no one at QJ.NET had one handy...
Update: Booster has released v0.41a of DevHook which fixes some small issues regarding wallpaper not restoring properly and other fixes when switching back and forth between the XMB and DevHook (Home + L/R). WiFi still does not work properly when set to 333mhz. Version 0.40/0.41 is needed as this version is not a standalone.

wtf????
Gj
Usually you can't post iso loaders on qj.net but since this is also a firmware emulator, it doesn't matter :P This is awesome news!
no wonder.. i can't seem to find updates on devhook here.... didn't know that iso loaders are not allowed to be posted here anyway.. this sounds like good news, but could've simplify the info and made that news easier to understand
ISO loaders.........THEY RULE I GOT A 1.50 HAHAHAHAHAHA!
oh joy
will this let me play socom online?
is it even an iso loader? from i what i see seems like you can only play 2.5 games from the actual umd disk...
I have 2 psp's one 2.7 and one 1.5...so can anybody get this to work?..I want to be able to play GTA on my 1.5 without upgrading...with this program can I do that....I dont want to brick or mess up my 1.5 psp
this is a great news for 1.5ers, including me!!!
will it run "Daxed" isos?
HOW IS EVERYONE KEEPING SO CALM!!!! THIS IS AMAZING!!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!! PANDAS ARE FLUFFY AND CUTE!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this does not load ISO's instead it loads the higher firmware UMD its AMAZING PROGRAMME TRYING IT OUT NOW
it loads ISOz
I'm with you 12. everyone should be going crazy!!, this is ammaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing!!!!!!! whooo i love you *whoever made this*
Any word on Katamari Functionality?
It should work if the update is below 2.6
If i install this i can still load ISO's from my UMD loader and with this program I can load UMD's over 2.5 like GTA
when it says it emulates 2.5, do i need to download the 2.5 eboot update or something? Im not too bothered about playing 2.5 required games, i just want to use the psp web browser
HOLY SH**!!! THIS IS AMMAZING!!!! BEST THING FOR THIS YEAR!!!-atm
yes it does load isos.. it emulates the firmware first and then it loads up the game.. THIS IS AWSOME!!
it also lets u play ATTRAC3 when emulating 2.5.. something i've always dreamed of.. THANK YOU!
This rocks and works!!! It also autoboots after you configure it the first time, so you can change the icon and Eboot name to something better like 2.5 mode. Everyone who finds that network doesnt work, please try the full version and not the update and do NOT overclock. UPDATE: Hmmm.... whenever I try to use navigate w/ the browser it crashes the psp
does QJ actually have the downloadble version with the FIRMWARE DUMPS ON THEM...this site is so jokes with it's whats good and bad....especially with this ISO loader...
Anyone knows if this version supports Dax??? or there is any tutorial to use Ciso???
set the cpu speed tp 222/111 or else wifi wont work. wifi refuses to work if you clock to 333/166 fair warning
Holy *****!
I know this would be completely pointless but technically you could run the eLoader, right? Now that would be weird.
Why am I getting the message that my PSP cannot load/start DevHook?
Thanx for that , amazing work....
how do u revert back to 1.5?
How do I go back to 1.5....
Good stuff! Unbelievable! good job!!!
Best thing ever! Thanks alot
why not include the iso loader?
Great! found out how to go back to 1.5. Just hold the off switch for about 7 seconds then wait and turn it back on again. BACK TO 1.5!!! I was scared for a sec then wen i say 2.5!!!! EEEK!!!
yes i rebooted my psp and it it went back to normal.. but the umd was still able to play! it was a 2.50 and i didnt need to reload that emulator! wow sweet
nvm about the last comment :P
Incredible! A million thanks to Booster!
Great Program! Why do the program icons show as "corrupted"...till you reboot it?
This is great still need 2.6 though.... Hopefully soon....
Theres no way of loading an iso, i have checked and its quite impossible, it doesnt let you load any homebrew when in 2.5 firmware, people claiming ISOs are working are just having you on. This is a great app for origional UMDs though, my GTA finnaly works, who needs a modchip now eh, lol, this is sweet.
Is the web broswer fully functional? Yes or No?
WHY THE HELL CANT I DL ANYTHIING FROM DL.QJ.NET?!?!!??!!??!!?!?! I ALWAYS GO BACK TO THE SAME PAGE WITHOUT ANYTHING CHANGING!!! HOW THE ***** DO I *****ING DOWNLOAD ***** *****!
Is this real? OMG!
go to ***** and read the homepage it will tell you how to load the isos.
Is the web broswer fully functional? Yes or No?
Use another browser than internet explorer (Like Firefox for example)
haiz i just nid something that let people with fw 2.5 play fw 2.6 and higher fw games...can someone work on it?please i beg u guys...
DevHook has always been an ISO loader. It's not until version 0.4 that firmware emulation was introduced. Have a look at the first screenshot. Notice the option ISO NO UMD and ISO ANYUMD? You say you can't run an iso loader while emulating 2.5, but you don't need to, you select the ISO you want to run before the emulation starts, and then the game appears in the menu like a normal UMD. You can even hit Home+L/R to change between ISO's while the emulated firmware is still running so you can even change games without rebooting. Personally, I'm very surprised that QJ posted this...
OMG your right wow, thanks for that, i stand corrected, you can load ISOs, never have i been more happy to be wrong :D
WHen i press the orange DL button nothing happens. I've even followed User FAQs to change trusted sites and ETC on my Internet Explorer 6. WTH is wrong with this?
I need to know if the web browser is fully functional?
from another board, to people who charge their PSPs while it's on. Make sure it's not in emulation mode as it will overheat your PSP. Also, the laser/UMD is running at all times this app is running. So do not open it while on the emulated XMB
at 333 is pretty nice... :)
WOW,WOW,WOW,, i bought a bunch of UMD videos and refused to upgrade so i have never been able to see them. Ive tested them and they all work! woohoo! And Yes Web Browser is fully functional, no problems here. Just Amazing. I saved an image off the browser and now have a desktop, i know its simple for people who have had 2.0+ but hell, its just awesome. Everything is working beautifully, mad props to everyone that helped make this. Just, WOW.
"I need to know if the web browser is fully functional?" YES
What a great program!! Awesome!! I finally took my GTA UMD for a spin on my 1.5 ! Now will (your legally backed up) ISO's of 2.5 version UMD's work with this? Wonderful (belated) Christmas gift. Thanks!!!!! :-)
wow browser and SFA3 UMD WORK!!! NW
can someone tell me how to install this app. do i need to copy the correct firmware files into the correct directory - or does the download contain everything i need to run the app? thanks in advance.
this is still illegal for qj to be doing.
does qj know the 13mo file contain illegal sony decrypted firmware file?? way to take the piss at legal devs here too
Can this load old iso's that don't required 2.0+?
Does your homebrew stuff still work after?
This App seems to load ISOs that require firmware 2.5+!! Ive just tried Monster Hunter and Its working perfectly. But it seems like i get all sorts of errors when using Web browser. WEb browser turns on, but you cannot connect to wireless router
I just asked if it was fully functional, and a person said yes...I heard you set it at 222mhz and it works? Is this comfirmed?
Lol
Is the web browser functional or not? Also can this load any ISO?
i dont think web browser is working, it turns on, but cannot connect to wireless router.
so socom def ran pefect,...Mx vs Atv just kept loading anyone try cheat device on gta hollaback
Can it run any ISO? including 1.5 ISOs?
isos work
Really! I cant! Where the heck are those guys? I mean Im here just peeing in my pants cos all you 1.5'ers are rockin' on and on when we 2.01+ers watch in desolation! Plz Undiluted Platinum, make my day! This is aMaZiN News and i wish i had a 1.5 PSP!!!!
how's the browser?
HOWEVER... this DID corrupt my settings, after which I had to.. reboot, reset all my XMB settings. RE SWAP my X and O buttons. Reset all the XMB settings again because PSPset messes them up Remember what stupid PSPset changes your password to RE-DO my internet connection. it sucked.
The web browser works great, just set up your connection before you try to use it, and leave it at 222mhz, 333mhz doest not make that much of a difference anywayz. This is the best thing to happen to 1.5, im so happy i never upgraded! 1.5 for life!
If the browser is fully functional, i will be definately downgrading my 2.0.
1. I have WAB version changed my 1.5 to a 2.0. Will this be a problem? 2. Does multiplayer and save work with a SOCOM iso? 3. Does GTA cheat Device Work? many thanks!!!
ISOs dont work on this - this is only for firmware - Unless i am missing somthing
. .......
Who made this??? who ever you are i love you and you guys are f*cking sweettttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK ISOs work with this release! The internet browser works perfectly and you can play 2.0 games on it with multiplayer wireless. so all of you saying that the broswer doesnt work it wrong and ive been able to play socom online with 1.5 with online multiplayer.... HOWEVER... this DID corrupt my settings, after which I had to.. reboot, reset all my XMB settings. RE SWAP my X and O buttons. Reset all the XMB settings again because PSPset messes them up Remember what stupid PSPset changes your password to RE-DO my internet connection. it sucked. also it doesnt change any of you setting like this guy said. he must have did something wrong idk but i have all custom stuff and its all still there.
Uh, if u ever get the BSOD whilst emulating, just powerdown... Um the flash updater REALLY scared me... :P But it all works! ( Make sure you dump your own updates, it works better. )
Hey can anybody help me with this. When I try and run this program after selecting all the proper fields and all the rest of it, when I press start it says that it can't start the program or something. did anyone else have this problem, and if so, how do I fix it ?!?!?! Thanks in advance
Why is it so hard for you guys to help me out, all i want to know it where to place the iso, all you guys have done it, what kind of a community is this, where you guys dont help a guy out, please for the love of god. where do you place the iso files
84: 1. dont know, probably? 2. yes/yes 3. yes
Rich The PSP community is by far the worst community of all, it includes the most arrogant spitefull people to grace gods given earth, just look at the posts for monkey 64, full of disrespect for the author and everyone else, these people, which is about 95% of the community should be shot with a sawn off shotgun to the head. Anyway, to help you out, put an ISO folder in the Root of your mem stick and put your isos in there, it should pick it up. Now all you people. was that really hard. Rich....your welcome
Thank you sir!!!
...
Now,now people stop wishing devhook didnt support iso's. And for those that are supprised that pspupdates posted this, honestly, who wont post it, its a breakthrough, on, multiple levels. Who would have thought the people that make the biggest breakthrough's would be pirates them selves? Me. ( Not inferring anything on fanjita or any other dev. )
Some guy said that if you charge your psp while using the firmware will cause it to overheat. I have had mine on for an hour on charge and can confirm that the psp overheats and it crashes the psp (i would say freeze, but since its over "heating", "freeze" just sounds weird), and i am sure it damages the inards of the thing because the psp has no fan. The whole right side, where the power connector goes is realllllly hot, my psp has never been this hot and i no i play with it for hours on end. So this is a caution to all you n00bs, dont charge the psp while using the firmware, be warned. ---- POX----
Mogungo thanks alot i guess its people like post #99 that you were talking about when you said its full of nasty beings. That guy is a retard. thx mogungo and LordSturm, you guys rock dude in post #99 - get a life
2.71+ firmware emulation is not impossible???
maybe this doesn't support daxed iso's? is your gta daxed?
impressive
this sounds brilliant what they have done! but could this brick your psp at all?
Do I have to copy the firmware 2.5 to the mem stick? And what should I do with the firmware installer. Can anyone please make a guide step by step? I really would like this stupied sh## to work...
Very nice work down by a person who really knows about the firmwares. It sounds pretty easy but it must have taken a lot of time to code this app/emu. Great job! if they can emulate 2.50 so there is nothing which can stop them from emulating 2.7x #108: get the full pack not the addon stuff. You dont need fw dump at all. Please do some reading BEFORE you ask such question and make yourself sound stupid.
Great job on making a firmware emulator, but when I try to load GTA via UMD my PSP freezes just before it displays the PSP logo. Anybody else getting this? Still, well done.
this is really a great aprogram amazing!! to 107.. it shouldnt brick ur psp cuz there is no flash write i believe.. but merely reads the flash data from the devhooks firmware.. so it shoudlnt brick the psp at all. =)
I'll stick with RunUMD, too lazy to get this, good work on the people who made it though
I´ve been sitting with this amp the hole day. That is 4h. So I+´ve already done my reading. eVERYONE AINT as good as you are, or seems to be.
Somebody please test if SD VS RAW 2006 works on this? cant wait to get the answer
Thats exaktly whats been happening to me...
Fifa Street 2 works... playing right now.
I'm using a PAL UMDmovie with a japanese PSP, and everytime when starting the FW 2.5, it says the region code isnt same. What I have understand is that the ISO is working as a UMD from the FW 2.5, which mean when trying to start the ISO, it also trying to start the UMD, but wont work becuz of those damn region codes :(
i really love this site but please kill the lamers stupid comments YES it does load iso images if you would take the time and dl the software and read the read me files maybe there wouldnt be so much wasted space. So again this is great progress and please keep up the great work. And remember if you like the game then buy it.
Really should have waited until fw 3.0 got released before they released this app. You know sony will put a stop to this with the next firmware. then you're going to have all the 2.01+ lamers talking about how they got a ps1 emu. lameo
Why is this called sample version?
i just upgraded form 1.5 to 2.5 like an hour before this came out. noooooooooooooo
If you are using this to run backed up games then the UMD in the drive must be a game UMD and nothing else otherwise you will get an incorrect region code. Also you will find that clean and ''legal'' dumps are the ones that work. If you run the web browser set your CPU to 222mhz otherwise it will not work correctly. I wouldn't worry about bricking your Psp since Devhook has redirected all firmware reads and writes to the Memory stick but I could be wrong regarding the bricking risks. Also this is why you may find some games run slow at loading from Mem stick whereas the UMD's run quicker. I have tested Devhook with UMD movies that previously wouldn't run on my 1.5 but with Devhook it plays fine now. This program is better than RunUMD and MPH loader but I am sure the knowledge and sources from those two programs have helped Devhook become what it is today. This is a huge breakthrough but due to the recent news of Modchips and N4 emulation progress it has lost the spotlight somewhat. Now I can travel with my single 1.5 Psp and be able to play all of the 2.0/2.5 UMD's I own which is great!! A big thanks goes to the Dev's involved in this, just remember that amongst all of the flamers, the immature kids and trouble makers there are people who truly appreciate all of your hard work and only offer support both verbal and fiscal. Well done!!
Hey, This is great work, now how bout that 2.60 and 2.70 firmware? Its amazing that i need the help of hackers to play my fully legal daxter Umd, wake up sony!
did that update say me and my katimari is working?
Huzzah, it works! If you have the Neo 4in1 adapter (CF to MS) devhook WON'T work with it - you have to use a proper memorystick. Oh well, no ISO backups for me then.
hi is it possible to use a video UMD to load ISO's as i like to keep my spiderman 2 wid me so is it possible to boot ISO through this or do you have to use a game e.g GTA Which im currently using cheers cheers
cant seem to download it... any suggestions ?
so now theres no reason left to stay with 2.0 instead of downgrading to 1.5, right?
can you run this with no umd, my umd drive is broken , so has anybody gotten it to work without it?
for those who just got here. this is a iso loader, but it also loads umds that require 2.5 or lower. i have tested out the web browser and it does work. have not tested out savin pics from the web browser to my memory card yet though. umds that i can confirm that work are. gta.socom.smackdown vs raw. street fighter. i will post more here when i test them out
Did wonder same thing, but if you look at post #124 it says "f you are using this to run backed up games then the UMD in the drive must be a game UMD and nothing else otherwise you will get an incorrect region code" - thats ecatly what happend to me when trying to boot up ISO, thought it was because I was using a PAL UMD with my japanese PSP... So too bad for us with only UMDmovies.
I have PSP with FW 1.5. After installing and running this stuff, I set all the options as stated on the pictures and finally click the start. After that, my PSP turns off and after booting, I still have 1.5 fw. I have tryied every possible option but it always end like this. PLZ.. help!! :)
This is the best app i ever seen. Just wanna tell you that some games dont work like my Medevil on 2.6, but on 1.5 it still work so no reasons to cry
What works: 1. webbrowser ( make sure yhou have the connection presetup.) 2. 2.0-2.5 games 3. 2.0-2.5 movies 4. isos ------- What not to do: 1.Charge while emulating 2. Overclock to 333mhz Overall it works great!
set the cpu speed tp 222/111 or else wifi wont work. wifi refuses to work if you clock to 333/166 fair warning
This is very cool but which one should I get the 4.0 or the 4.1? I'm a bit confused....Almost the best thing ever man good job
Ok so cheatdevice does work I am using 1.00a and so I would think eloader also works! And for #138 I belive it does work I dont see why it wouldnt. UPDATE: Cheatdevice and gta is a little slow and I would not recommend overclocking in gta!
Hi i like to thanks the person who made this but i cant get this to work at all I installed version 0.40 by copying only the two folders DEVHOOK and DEVHOOK% to PSP/GAMES like I usually do I follow everything on the picture but I get an error cant load devhook start so I thought maybe I need to delated 0.40 and install 0.41 but I get the same error message also the version still appears to be 0.40 this is very weird if I'm doing this wrong please advise me with the right procedure once again I thanks the creator of this wonderful program I'm sure is just something that I'm doing wrong please take two minutes of your time and help me get this software to work for me as well
i set all of the stuff up and everything but when i hit start it goes blank and shuts off! is this because i have a umd that does not have the 2.00+ firmware on it. If so can i load off the firmware update i have on my memory stick that is 2.00+?
I have PSP with FW 1.5. After installing and running this stuff, I set all the options as stated on the pictures and finally click the start. After that, my PSP turns off and after booting, I still have 1.5 fw. I have tryied every possible option but it always end like this. PLZ.. help!! :)
I have the same problem as #143 and #144 please help
I just tried socom online, and the news is good, she works! so yes, 1.5 users can play socom online!
Neato no more up/down grading.
Why not charge the psp when emulating? i just did that :S ?! =/
to those of us that are having problems I don't think we will get much help here. Mogungo you absolutely right this PSP community really sucks :(
i copied the files which were in the rar files to the MS like any homebrew. i placed the dh folder on the ms root. now when i try to load 2.5 on my psp it wont work. it just turns into black screen and turns off.
I'm stuck here as well.. I need help.. is this because I'm using a umd that doesnt have a 2.00+ update?? if so.. anyways I can use any update from a memory stick or something.. guys I'm really stuck..
It would be great if the next version allowed use of a UMD Video disc in the drive!
I can confirm that the GTA ISO is NOT working, i hope for a fix soon, becouse the only reason i want to use this is the cheat device, wich can not be used on 1.5 :( PLEASE FIX THIS SO GTA ISO WORKS !!!
LOL I feel sorry for all those who updated past the point of no return (or a very long time if they are able to find any exploits) This is freaking great!
Umd video should be support,PLZ
Did you guys notice that the nickname changes to "PSP GREG"??
Great job... NOW GET TO WORK ON 2.6 SUPPORT!
It's surprising that the admins haven't already closed this comment thread. I mean, it's filled with "iso-loading pirate" material, and afaik, that's illegal. I think PSPUpdates don't support piracy. "It would be great if the next version allowed use of a UMD Video disc in the drive!" You're #$%@ing cheap.
my psp doesen't reboot it just turns off I followed the instructions do I need a 2.0 or higher disc in the drive for it to work. I just want to see if I can use the browser
I've got a 2.0 psp, do you agree with me that I should downgrade my psp for this? I have gta and donky kong. One other question: is it easy to quit the program?
I only have one stupid question. How in the name of god do you exit the firmware other than turning off the psp?
All this shyt is going to be useless when someone comes out with a 2.6 downgrader... pusssiesss
More piracy.... more than half the posts are all abou UMD Isos, UMD Isos... UMD Isos....a shame...
I just tried this and confirmed this IS NOT working with Datel's 4 GB HDD!! ='( now that sux ass! T_T
Hahah if 1.5 users are 'newbs', what firmware are you going to downgrade to with a 2.6 downgrader
This app kicks ass. Now i can see my iron maiden umd again without upgrading. NICEEE0rr !!!
How do you get it to work? When I choose it, the PSP just freezes, then crashes. I have the clock speed at 222/111. I saw a comment where it said to have the connections preset, but when I run the whole DevHook, everything resets, the nickname, the connections, etc. I'd love to use the browser, can anyone help me?
This is Simply...amazing. Lol y woudl u want a mod chip now lol
hey plz help i do everything that qj says and my psp just crashes. Please help please please i do everything it just crashes do i have to dump the fw. I just put the files on my ms like qj says and load devhook and do all the settings and i say start the ms light blinks then my psp crashes
I've got v.04 to work but how do you install the v04.1 updater? They contain same file names...are you suppose to click replace?
I had the same problem but not I fixed it. You just need to download the .40 version it's like 18mb and then you can use the .41 update. I thought that the update was the whole program. I should have known better I feel stupid ;)
I just went to create a new connection all over again, rebooted the PSP, and tried the web browser. It works fine, but a little slower than the actual browser on the 2.0+ PSPs (as I've used them myself). Also, infrastructure works on games as well (I'm only trying out Twisted Metal: Head On, the ISO).
Well, It is slightly annoying that the HDD doesn't work, some of the good apps which have been released don't support it now. I only have that and a 32mb card, which is not enough for this app to load onto. I really don't want to splash out and spend money on ANOTHER card, but it looks like i may just have to get a cheap 512... At least i could have movies on the hdd, and all homebrew on the 512 card i guess.
GUYS WHAT IF SOMEBODY UPDATES THAT THING FROM 2.5 TO 2.70 OR EVEN 2.71? WILL THE ORIGINAL FW(1.50) BE UPGRADED?
I've just been using all the features on this, Thanks so much for this much needed Homebrew Massive Update! The whole Community is ROCKING it out today because of you. This is by far the simplest loader yet. Simple? Yes u'll see, script kiddies. SFA3T RAWKS on my 1.5 emu'd 2.5. Booster you now rank up there with THE GREATEST PSP WHITE HATS OF ALL TIME. There should be a Hall of Fame......
Well, I've purchased a 512mb card now, so lets hope that fixes the problem...
Ha, I've been playing GTA on my 1.5 with this for months now, it's about time you got it here.
DOES THIS PLAY ISOS ONLY OR THE ORIGINAL UMDS OR BOTH? CAUSE UMM YEA I ONLY HAVE THE ORIGINAL UMD'S BUT BEEN AFRAID TO PLAY THEM SINCE I HAVE FW 1.5!!!
This is the greatest thing ever, I'm going to try this with my Exit UMD when I get home and enjoy it without having to ISO it. Kudos!
I am not 100% sure but since this emulates 2.50 firmware I don't believe that you could update your psp. Because your psp thinks it's a 2.50 psp and when you try and update it the psp will say you have the latest firmware and there is no need to update. so unless you do it from the network it won't work and I don't believe there are any umds with anything higher than 2.5 on them so you can't do it that way either. but don't take my word for it I could be wrong.
even my Video-UMDs are working.. GREAT GREAT ... GREAT ... SO GREAT !!!
Yeah, a lot of people are arguing that they have "lost respect" in QJ and their posting of this, but seriously, this is NOT directly connected to loading ISOs. Granted it does load them, they have not encouraged it. They have simply stated that this allows 2.5 UMD games to be played on a 1.5 PSP, nothing more. If they stated that ISOs (illegal) could be played, then it would go against their word. There are a couple of you guys who get easily insinuated and jump to conclusions that you don't even know half of what they're saying. Please pay attention on what they're saying and less on what you should be saying back, because this is helpful for all 1.5 users alike.
I'm having some trouble downloading it. I get the file, but when I go to unrar it, Winrar says that there is a CRC error or sumthin. I have tried downlaoding a couple of times, but same error :( One question aswell, this doesn't play with the actual firmware of the PSP does it? it's all in memory so crashing the PSP takes it back to 1.5 right?
this is perhaps the greatest thing in the entire world. EVER!
to have internet and to play my umd games and movies which 1 do i download? the sample launcher full or the sample launcher update?
Does me and my Katamari work?
OMFG Thank you whoever made this!!!!!!
I can now enjoy breath of fire 3 on my 1.5 psp, and without the ******* slow loading ! To whoever who made this : you're my god
@ 190 you need to get the full version first as it is the whole program the update is just the eboot files it will not work without the .40 full download. @191 I have tried both the japan and us versions of Katamari and neither one works it may need 2.6 firmware. All it does is try to do the reboot thing and then the psp crashes.
i got it to work one time. loaded the 2.5fw and now it will not work. All it does is try to do the reboot and then the psp crashes. WTF. WTF.WTF.

i start up devhook0.40 sample laucher and i do all of that > "Go to the Boot Select Menu and choose "Reboot XMB" In the Firmware Menu and select "2.50 + 2.00" Next go to UMD Version and make sure it is on "2.xx -> 2.00" (optional) Overclock the PSP to "333mhz" Finally, in UMD Mount, select "UMD Disk" Return to the Device Hook Main Menu and click "Start" why doesn't it work
Why wont someone help? How do you apply the update(.41) ? Do you just overwrite the folders that .40 created? It's a little confusing. I followed the directions to the letter posted on the front page of this topic. All, I get is a black screen. Are we supposed to install firmware 2.5 first? Please help us.
THIS ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think its so funny reading ppl's "how do i do this" yes its a iso loader yes it humps ur gta disk and plays it as well no it will not hurt your psp in ne way and it rele does kick ass.. on think i havent tested out ne other umds so sry no clue on that dept. 1.5 user 4 life...
Been following the DevHook for awhile, and this is pretty freaken amazing, I was not expecting this.
first of all a real good work! but i cant get it started i tested outrun en socom (they are in iso folder in root) i downloaded 'the with firmware version' when i start it then i configure the options then i select socom then start after that my psp restarts en then me psp is 2.50 (yessssss! but i cant play 2.5 games yet :/ ) if i try to open devhook back it gives error that blabla is corrupted what am i doing wrong pls help!!!!
IT WORKS IT WORKS. THe 13.8mb file with all the firmware dumps can be found on other PSP sites. *eherm* At first... I thought my PSP would be a white elephant.. Then came the loaders... hohoho... But after awhile I was bored saying... "Aw man... if only i could use tt 2.5 browser".... NOw.... things just get better and better. Insanely fantastic work guys! U MAKE ME LOVE MY PSP!
Great program ! I tried to start the XMB of firmware 2.00 but it only work with 2.5... And I could start GTA (I own the original UMD) and use the Cheat Device. The cheat device do not work with the MPH Launcher, but with Devhook it works !!! Again a super program that we must not update our 1.5 PSPs !
Just install .40 first and if you want to install .41 overwrite the two evhook folders in the game folder of the psp but not the others that should make it work I had the same black screen problem too and this fixed it.

I figured it out! U just take the contents off the memory stick. I thought my heart stopped for a minute! O well back to my old amazing 1.5!
Im reading everyone is playing gta with this loader! I have a modded version of gta and it will not load! does anyone have the original prx's to share?
21. » OCCCCCCCOOOOLLL HOLY SH**!!! THIS IS AMMAZING!!!! BEST THING FOR THIS YEAR!!!-atm ^^I agree! THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST PROGRAMS!!! ...AMAZIN...good job ;-)...
lets take a counting lesson: 1) 1.5 2) 1.51 3) 1.52 4) 2.0 5) 2.01 6) 2.5 7) 2.6 8) 2.7 9) 2.71 9, 9 firmware updates. anyway, this thing is awesome!
When using the browser, is it normal for the memory stick to be constantly accessed? It seems like that makes everything lag a bit.
I tried to use this nice app. I copied everything to the root (4 folder went automaticly to PSP/..) So i startet dev hook. when tried 2 way to do it. 1. auto. and 2. i modified as descriped @pspupdates.com. Both times the result was is crash while start up of the system. I mean 1 second I saw the psp background moving (in black) and then it stoped and crash after 30 seconds. After this I had to set the firware (1.5) setting. What did I wrong?
Before anyone else asks about Me and My Katamari Damarcy, MaMKD requires 2.6 firmware, so no, it will not work. Repeat, ME AND MY KATAMARI DAMARCY REQUIRES 2.6 FIRMWARE AND WILL NOT WORK WITH THIS UPDATE. That is all
How do you use this program? I started it up, followed the instructions, selected start and then my psp turned off. I turned it back on, and there is NO DIFFERENCE. Can anybody help me? Oh ya, and thx to Pspupdates and Devhook creators for this brilliant masterpiece of genius
for those of you that get stuck with the updates on your memory stick what you need to do is place a game with an update in the umd drive and run firmware installer after that you can run dev hook but that is where i am getting stuck
Thank you very much Booster for this marvelous creation of yours... On behalf of me and my small clan ... THANKS A MILLION.. YOU ARE THE BEST
Is there any possible way to switch back and forth between a 1.5 and 2.5 psp without having to use a USB?
all my problems would be solved, hopefully an update for 2.6 soon, thanks booster! its wonderful! love this app!
I tried to get it working. I was pumped when the game loaded up, but it froze right after the screen where you press the start button. anyone else having the same problem? Thanks
hi, it's great. tnk booster there is only problem. don't work with hd datel 4gb. I hope in the next versions it resolves a problem tnk
i used the program and did everything, followed the instructions. the psp rebooted and there was no difference. I cant even use my smack down versus raw game.
yay now i need to get a v1.5 psp i have v2.7 f**k!
145. i feel your pain. if anyone could actually look over and maybe try to help, instead of just talking about how much THEIRS does, maybe this psp community will become a bit less rude. all ive seen here is people asking for help and no one helping them. i myself do not know how to get it working either, and seeing how people are over here, i dont think ill ever get it working. if MaMKD doesnt work for it tho, ill just stick to mphfl.
Get some GOOD portals linked to this thread and can soeone tell me how to get it back to 1.5 without turning it totally off?? or do you have to turn it off to get it back to 1.5? it doesnt seem to want to switch back unless it gets switched
that was me on post 247.
isnt the mod chip coming out soon? no point for this then
It's like I've died and gone to heaven !!! Now my 1.50 does everything that a 2.50 does plus full homebrew... Woo hoo !!!
ive followed every advice and every instruction given and it seems easy but there is no change at all when i use the program. I did alll the stuff and it looked like it was working. Can somebody that has been succesful give a full description and instruction of how they did this Include ur fw version, what u did first, what files u copied to ur psp, where they went, and how u used the programs and etc.. Thank u
we dont care chip ill cost 80 $ go waste ur money and avoid ur garanty :O

Why pay if you can get this for free and plus a Mod-Chip is never 100% shure of working for long exepted if you have a life time warranty that i touth you'l have and if you do buy one you shounls wait for more release of mod-chip by other companie.Cause the performence for every one will varie.

HEY!! HELP ME OUT WOULDYA??? after i run the firmware installer, what do i do? im still on 1.5 after i do the firmware install thing
this app just bricked my psp.............boooooooooo
maybe I did the fiurmware dump wrong or something, but when I tried to load up the 2.5 the way you gusy said, it froze after booting up with a black background and the waves. then I reset the PSP and got that blue screen and got a bit scared, but anyway, I not gonna keep fooling with it, no real use for me
this program is pretty awesome. except i have one problem. I have two memory sticks and when the 2.0 version is being emulated the X button doesn't work after i switch memory cards. Also the other memory card has nothing on it. is there certain files needed on it? If so which ones?
haha your psp is bricked :P
This is GJ! Holy ****!!! Reading other posts it seems that now one is caring about his headphones, because I noticed that the headphones remote control doesn't work at all... how this will be fixed soon... I love my PSP!!!
I'm having problems with it at first, im gonna download the full package soon, if i still have problems, im gonna NEED YOUR HELP!!!!
I am still running firmware 1.00, will this work on that version firmware, or is it ONLY for 1.5?? I really want to try this but I am scared to screw up my PSP. Thanks.
i dont think so 273
Did you guys notice that the nickname changes to "PSP GREG"?? I did.. but i thought well its my bros psp and his name is greg... didnt think much of it lol!
Thanks Scotty92, You have helped me out immensley with ur Full Package, QJ.NET Please use the Full Package instead of the Install version, It will be easier for people to Use the Full one. If AVC works with this, i will love you forever!!!!!
well i would just like to say thanks to the guys who spend hours/days/weeks/months making these awesome programs for the psp. im sure it wont be long before 2.6 and 2.7 emulation comes out. for all the people who work on everything from homebrew games, to apps like this i just wanna say thank u. great job booster :))
wow almost 300 coments

Works flawlessly for me. Thanks!
Works perfectly here, this is a wonderful app.!
Thanks taco taco BIG help man
6-6-06, This is truely a blessing from our Dark Lord, Can I get a Hail Satan?
I have 1.5 and 1Gb ms japanese sony high speed and it doesn't work:( I've heard it's because of memory stick..is it possible?¿ Anyone with japanese 1gb sony high speed has made it work?
Can someone tell me if the 007 From Russia With Love UMD GAME loads with this program or not!
If you are trying to load up modified backed up UMD's then most of the time it will crash. You should be able to get away with removing the update folder but if you change the prx then it will most likely crash at startup. To number 230 regarding the browser, Devhook works by redirecting all firmware reads and writes to memory stick so everything you do will alwyas constantly read from the memory stick with potential lag so this is perfectly normal. You might get better results with a high speed Memstick, especially Sandisk ones. Sony ones are the worst in my experience and much slower.
It's Simple folks, If you have any complications, you either (A) Didn't do something right and or (B) you shouldn't be trying this
been trying for soo long..i finally give up, been to every site, every tutorial, every pack, everything, wen i press start it goes blank and turns off, im not a noob, something like this never happened to me before, now i think, is it cause i have a japanese 1.5 fw? i have a sony 1gb stick, but i think the japanese 1.5 fw mite be doing it, and tips, or ways how to do it, will be appreciated..my email add is teksoulja47@hotmail.com email me or msn add me, thanks
Agreed!! Check those posts above if you need help.
users of microdrives would be greatly happy to know that the next version will support the slower drives (such as the datel and the neopsppad HDDs)
so im trying to run this but i dont have any games or movies that need 2.0+ so does this work with a umd that only needs 1.5? i just want to use the browser lol let me know
Hi, After reading a few post and testing. I can confirm that the web browser works as long as you keep the CPU speed to 222MHz. I originally had my CPU speed at 333MHz and I could not figure out why I'm getting ERRORS. So, I cursed out my PSP a few times and relax afterward... Now, I share you my solution. I confirmed it with a Japanese Ceramic White PSP w/ firmware 1.5. And a USA Black PSP w/firmware 1.5. Have fun.
Yep, it works, go get the Fullpack everyone if ur having problems
I don't understand how someone can suggest pspupdates link to the full package. Linking to the full package could get them into trouble because it includes firmware dumps.
I'm sure this program is awesome and all, but apparently I'm retarted, and don't know how to get this to make my psp 2.5...am i doin something wrong...
Still getting used using X to confirm stuff now instead of O. :P A bug maybe, If you set a wallpaper and put it in sleep mode and than out again the background is black and you need to reset the wallpaper again. Also, about the overheating, why not put it in sleep mode while charging, can't be any harm in that can it?
I saw all of these negative comments about people not wanting to help, so I figured what the hell? Why not help out. I don't understand why nobody helped before. There is no reason for this to not work on everyone's 1.5 PSPs. It's perfect. Woo hoo!
Great Job Booster!! When using the browser in emulation mode it doesn't come up with the memory error like PSP's with the 2.00+ Firmware installed on them. This is great!! I guess this is using the memory card for the cache. Keep up the good work!!
great release... but not so great for the makers of the modchip now they've lost half their customers :1
if your psp just kept on crashing no matter what you did then copy everything off your mem stick to your computer and format your memory stick.. it works great for me now i
wtf it doesn't work this sucks
works great! :)
Sorry, I DUNNO, I didn't see your post with that link! OMFG THIS RULES!
I just copied the apps from games into my PSP but when I follow the instructions above i get an error. How do i install the firmware needed?
Download and install DevHook on your PSP. Find and download the firmware you want to use( 2.00 or 2.50) to your PC. Use a program like PBP Unpacker and unpack a firmware to a location on your PC. From those files, copy the DATA.PSAR file to the root of your memory card. Use the devhook firmware installer program on your PSS to install the firmware fromm the DATA.PSAR file to your memory stick. Then run DEVHOOK. Good Luck!! Hope this helps some people.
did anyone acctually read all of the posts cause if u didnt i just scimmed thruogh and found out that everyone posted the same thing over and over again
everyone with blackscreen problem just go where tacotaco1 (258) said works great thank you tacotaco and elboffor PSP Guru and the guys that made this program
Question, where do I get the reboot.bin file... I have all the other files for the firmwares and stuff... Thanks in advance.
Hail Booster...the KING of the PSP World! We love your program! We love you! Now please get 2.71 Firmware emulation going...!
I can't get the Syphon Filter ISO to work! Is there any way to?
And yes this is a 2.6 game!
ive been waiting for this news since i the GTA came out!
Didn't work.
Can anyone get the US version of monster hunter freedom to work
I just posted this comment from my 1.5 PSP.
I got the Monster Hunter Freedom iso to work. Which is another 2.6 game!!
Can you tell me how you got it to work, because it starts up but freezes on the loading sceen
Has anyone got Syphon Filter to work?
Where did taco (258) say to go.... that comment was del'd
I'm having the same problem with Smackdown Vs Raw. It loads up then freezes on the screen that says Press Start. Anyone know if there's a way around this??
Its not working whith http://www.cln.ru/~ttocs/2gb.jpg cards
What are you talking about? I've got everything to work on my 2gb memory stick. I just can't get Syphon Filter to work.
Maybe it works because i have the multi5 version of it. The multi5 version has english and 4 other languages.
anyone who says their psp is bricked because of this is probably a worker from Sony trying to stop people from using it.
um... Thanks tacotaco, but for some reason right after 257 i see 259. Anyway i managed to solve my problem (same as everyone else's), by going to another site. Thanks anyway Tacotaco, for whatever you said. Whatever it was, you were the only one that actually took the initiative. Thanks again.
THANK YOU! This is the best release I have seen in months. Amazing work.
copy your saved files or w/e from your memory stick onto your comp... and then FORMAT YOUR MEMORY STICK TWICE!!!! and then install the files... v .40 and then .41, and then INSTALL your copy of v2.50 firmware dump using the firmware installer. Set settings to those described by the article itself. and your psp should AUTOMATICALLY reboot. (does not require holding power button/pulling battery out) I am running: PSP1000(Japanese) 1.00JP --> 1.50JP --> 2.00JP --> 1.50 JP 1GB Sony MSProDuo. I HAVE NO MODS ENABLED DURING THIS EMULATION ie. Fonthack, background hack etc... Hope this helps...
If Fanjita is the god of PSP homebrew, then Booster must b jesus!! Thanks soo much for this!! :) :) :) :) :)
Mad Props to all those robin hooders... No props to all the haters... just downloaded, haven't tried yet, but YOU PEOPLE--you know who you are--need to RESPECT these programmers...they work hard for YOUR benefit... without them there would be NO apps or brews... QUIT WHINING and enjoy the abundance of gifts that these talented individuals are bestowing upon you!! PEACE OUT :)
It was working great and I started testing and at one point I started having problems, and nothing worked as it should. I was resetting (with 5-sec off) a few times, when I took the UMD out... and ahmmm.. a surprise! "press "O" to reset your system settings" (or it was something close it it) then I just rebooted again with UMD-in, No-problem... rebooted again without UMD... ->press "O" I braved it, pressed "o" and had to set the PSP settings again. It looks like it's all good now, haven't re-tested the program tho, but if that happens then it must be writing to the FLASH at some point. (I used the .40 version) (it may have been from the .dax-ed iso... but who knows... didn't think it writes in the flash) kudos for the great work tho :)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
plz let video UMD disc run the game~~
I need a guide to instal and run DevHook
What happens if you boot into 2.50 and update it to 2.71? :S
this also works when you have the demo disc (that came with my 2.00 psp) in the drive so you don't always need a game disc i tested with ciso versions of NBA Street Showdown and Street Fight Alpha 3 Max amazing job BOOSTER
Well even if psp updates didnt post this, most other PSP would have :P (ps2nfo, psp-hacks). A great app, a bit glitchy though, such as switching between games. Hmm I tried Socom online, yep its great, but it crashes to the main menu randomly, during matches :P. Fairly decent stuff here, but feild commander dosent work :(
Can u play any other games with wifi? cuz I wanna play Monster Hunter Freedom via wifi, i'm not sure if this app can help
im a bit stuck on how to find a legit copy of 2.0 or 2.5 any suggestions. i dnt wnt to brick anything, or is it not possible to brick it?
WHY COULDNT YOU HAVE COME OUT WITH THIS LAST WEEK WHEN I UPDATED MY PSP TO PLAY THE NEW UNTOLD LEGENDS?!!? WHY?!!?!?!
FOR THE FINAL WORD>>>>>>> YES IT DOES LOAD ISO's-----READ IDIOTS WHO DONT THINK SO YES IT DOES LOAD UMDS AT 2.5 FIRMWARE THE INTERNET IS FULLY FUNCTIONAL AS SO WELL IS THE LOCATION FREE PLAYER READ BEFORE YOU POST STUPID ASS COMMENTS>>>>
Has anyone tested this on 2.0 firmware? Do I have to downgrade to 1.50 again? I'm going to check it out as soon as I get home from work. I'll post the results.
My psp 1.5 have change to 2.0 by using .40 version with the full pack. It reset the system, now I can't get back to 1.5 even holding the power off for 7 sec. Any clue how I get back?
any news on the 4gb problem????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
The psp don't scan 4 the SSID...It says me "An internal error has occured"..s**t. Anyone could help me?
I thought it would be a good idea to use PSPset or WAB version changer to change the firmware number up to 3.0 so more games would run. I dont know if this would work but you probably wouldnt get those "please update to play this game" things.
Is the link not working? I can't seem to get more than 78kb, from both things btw. I get the black screen thing, but every download i find has corrupted files. Please help.
You should set up your network connections in 1.5 then use those in 2.5 You dont need 2.5 to scan for SSIDs.
i already instal dvhook progrma and then i run Daxter,and i have problem with save.I can't load it why?
I cant even load daxter with dh, nots sure because why all my other games work ok. Its probably just that its not compatible...yet. Maybe it will be fixed in the next release, I seem to remember getting problems with saving and loading before when I was playing from a few of my backed up iso's
Why do you want them to edit your post... any way so daxter does work i thought it was a 2.6 game huh somebody tell me if you can save load... also what is the difference between 0.40 and 0.41 i have .40 and it works great i am now registered i kind of agree with 356 though that post was uncalled for
take you battery out.
....I thought daxter was 2.6 too, but post#361 says it works, i spose he could have a patched version of his backup iso with different prx's...
Differences that I can see: 0.41 has 2.5 support (as stated in the readme) however so does 0.40 I believe, so not really quite sure what all thats about. It also has a firmware installer app too, I have no idea what this is for and didn't want to run it... anyone else care to comment or have any ideas?
Thanks, TacoTaco for the post, it helped me to finally make the application work. Too bad that someone had to delete your comment. What a shame, it could have helped out a lot of people.
I think what the firmware installer does is rips the firmware from the updater of the currently inserted UMD... That way, if you have a 2.71 UMD it will rip the flash files from the UMD, and if you run devhook .41 it will temporarily give you 2.71 firmware and you can run the UMD... At least that's what I thought... I don't have any 2.7 UMD to try it on, and it may only work on 2.50 and below or something. I don't know
ALL WRONG! This is what you need... 2.0 update eboot 2.5 update eboot PBP Unpacker When you have PBP Unpacker installed on your comp use it to extract the DATA.PSAR from EACH update eboot. Now once you have both take ONE and put it in the root of your memory stick. Use the Firmware Installer Program that was bundled with Devhook to install the firmware using the DATA.PSAR that you put in the root of your memory stick. Now once you have done that do the same for the other DATA.PSAR. Now you should have firmwares 2.0 and 2.5 installed. now all you have to do is start Devhook and use the settings that PSP updates posted.
I follow all the steps in the tutorial and when i finally press "Start" in the Device Hook Main Menu, my PSP shuts down and when i turn it on again im still 1.5. I've tried many many times but cant get it to work! Can any1 plz help me?
L@@K RIGHT ABOVE YOU.
i do exactly was it says to do on top but when i hit start it says it cant load.....any ideas? thnx a lot
First of all, sorry for not having read completely, though post 369 didnt help me. The easiest way to solve the problem is going here and doing exactly what it says: http://www.psp-hacks.com/forums/about30434.html Good Luck
anyone get this working yet i cant get the UMD or the iso to work. both freeze at the start screen
i did it like i could make out of the instructions. can someone tell me how you did it? i get to the white screen that says PSP then it locks up and shuts down. HELP! please?
does this work on europe version?
I got Fight Night Round 3 ISO working, seems to be just fine. Online play and everything!
mine always says cannot start disk because of the region code
This is the best news for 1.5 PSP owners in some time. It works beautifully. Thank you Booster!
Thanks to whoever made this because you rule. There are a bunch of games I can now play thanks to you. If you make 2.60 work that'd be great and getting 2.70 or 2.71 would be even better. However, I have one concern, By using this I realize I'm booting the firmware off the memory stick but are there any dangers of bricking due to flashing on and off.
It has worked once..i've played fifa street 2. i've returned to menu, i've wanted to see a photo and psp has freezen.. i've had to format ms and reinstall devhook but it doesnt work anymore.. I've got two "fully versions" of devhook.. 0.40 and 0,41. Wot do i have to do? Put 0.4 first and then 0.41? Or only 041? Do i need to have an .iso in the ISO appart of fifa.cis(for example..)?? I need help..i need somebodies' help..
-> I've got some serious thoughts that i'd love to have the developers involved to take a look at: You say it doesn't access the flash memory but I have my doubts whether this is true or not. I know that once it's emulated, you redirect the read/write proccesses, but how come some people (including myself) had our 1.5 optionsdata messed up? It happens if you load a devhook 0.41 with wrong settings, it loads the 2.5 wavy lines but then the waves get black and turn off the psp. when you are back to 1.5, your options savefile is messed, then thankfully it asks you to press O to fix it. but this proves that the initial emulated 2.5 steps really do read from the actual hardware flash ^please prove me wrong
other thing: this IS an iso loader, but it doesn't function like the previous devhook versions. one of the main features of devhook was to load ISOs (or redirect them to actual iso loaders) EVEN if the umd hardware slot is EMPTY. This function was greatly used my people with broken UMD slots or people who just have parent control level 0 discs (ie: demo disc) and dont want to have the psp to boot it every god damn time(and cant access the umd eject slot easily, such as neopsppad users) this does NOT happen on the emulated 2.5, you currently NEED a game umd inserted in the slot (any game) And it doesn't run on slower memorysticks or HDD's, such as the one provided by the Datel or NEOpsppad8in1 / NEO4in1 models, which use microdrives.
also, when using a NEO product (which offers support to memorystick, SD, Compact Flash and microdrives / HDD's) you can't switch between the cards. actually, you can't switch memory cards even if both are msproduos with the emulator installed on both, it will hang up sooner or later. ... both the "run without umd in drive" and "run with microdrive compatibility" should be considered, as they are probably the only next improvements you have left to do (and that would help many people which are willing to help you too). Thank you very much for this wonderful piece of work on the PSP homebrew history. =`]
Can anyone provide a walkthru? Cos me follows the steps, but after the XMB reboots, nothing happens.....
did anyone bother to read the other comments?
ik that allot of people are asking for help and most of u just say read the readme but i opened the readme but i must not have somthing cause it comes up in boxes so can someone please help me get this to work cause i bough pursuit force from a friend but it requires 2.5 and i dont want to upgrade my psp so i can play it.
i read post 369 and it helped but this is taking forever to install the firmware i guess it doesnt take that long but i bet it is gonna be worth it
Can someone put a link on here for the pbp unpacker

it screwed up my memory stick it made its folder 107 gb and i only hvae a 1gb ms but i couldnt delete the files either. i had to copy all of my files onto my pc except the corrupt ones and format my ms in the psp menu but it is to late to send all of the files back i started it but it said over 200 min to go so i canceled it. school is over tommorrow and we have a short day so i will deal with it tommorrow. i just sent my some of my game saves so i can use it tommorrow but i hate this *****ing program. i would really like to use but i cant get it to work. what happened was it started to load the firmware but it stopped for some reason, i could see the wavy lines but there was no color only black and dark grey, then the psp shut off and i turned it back on but then it was all screwed up idk wtf i did wrong but im too tired to be pissed off. but in the morning i will be pissed. if someone knows what i did wrong can u please help me u can email me at av4237@yahoo.com thanks in advance if u can help
installed devhook 41 and played fifa street 2 fine, after rebotin unable to play anymore cuz lost control of both joysticks, any1 ave same probls
I tried to copy it into my PSP, but when I get to the menu its says that it is a currupt file... I have a 1.5 PSP
When i try to play Monster Hunter it tells me that i have 2.50 but need to update to 2.60...anyone who go this game working...how did you?
I can't get it to work!!!!!!!! :@ It simply freezes when i push start in device hook then when i reboot the psp its all back to 1.5
booster needs to fix the problem coz all my other loaders work even the old devhook works so what wrong with this one he needs to sort out this problem fast coz its pissing me off and something like this should of been sorted out within a couple days of its launch
ok..i have a 2 gig ms and i was hearin that it may not work cuz it was too big..bs...i formated my ms 2 times, then i put the files in. ran the firmware installer how they said to run it, then ran the other one w/ the umd of gta....and it worked....its working as im typing this...enough type...its game time!!!
FW 2.6 (or: FW2.71) loading feels like heaven.
Finally after fiddlin' with this thing for a day or so I got it to work. Like many, after reboot nothing happened. Just for kicks I DL the file from another site and followed the instructions and boom there it was, Reboot to 2.5. I have been having trouble dowloading files from PSPUpdates for some time (using firefox), but I never really thought much of untill now. Hope this helps.
Everything loads up liek the UMD select and all that jive, i followed the directions and when i clcik start it doesnt reboot. the psp just shuts down. i turn it on and nothign has changed, same ole 1.50 psp. Any help?
Find the "Full" version download that at let it auto-run, works like a charm for me :)
41a says Home L/R to switch between XMB & Devhook...... If this is to allow you to exit the XMB without a full power down then it does not work for me.... Wallpaper comes back fine after sleepy time. Everything else fine...
I don't know why but the download section does the same thing for me all the time. AND THIS IS THE BEST PSP SITE EVER!!!
lol...i when i saw this i was like..wtf? then i kept reading and, yea, pretty serious ;D still amazes me yo
Proble with switching between ISO's is that you need to know where the ISO falls on the list in DEVHOOK. If you currently have the first game on the list in the main menu hit (home+R)it will take you to the next game down on the list. If you have the last ISO in the list running and you want the game above that one on the list you have to hit (home+L) and it will take you to the game above the current one on the list. In other words it doesn't cycle through the list it only goes to the next or previous ISO on the list. I hope I made sense, and I hope it helps. Great program, and love this site. Later!
i can see how useful this can be for some, but i'm gonna stick with my umd loaders, thanks very much. Sorry, but i don't see any reason for this, especially with my memstick having around 700mb of my original 1gb memstick, being so filled up with homebrew. I don't have a wireless router, so now i REALLY don't need to risk bricking my psp maybe at a later and less buggy version this would be worth getting, keep up the good work
This runs the newest 1.5 iso's. Such as Exit, which previously couldn't run. (I own the game I'm talking about an ISO Backup I created) So who knows how many not working ones turn into working ones. It's a great program.
for those who got a little confused as to how to get the browser working on use these steps mware's features jog through the following steps. Go to the Boot Select Menu and choose "Reboot XMB" In the Firmware Menu and select "2.50 + 2.00" Next go to UMD Version and make sure it is on "2.xx -> 2.00" (optional) Overclock the PSP to "222mhz"
Breath of Fire 3 saving works...I love this thing
AWESOME!!!! Keep up with the great work! Should try to emulate FW2.7.
YEEEEEESSSSSSS this is s o great got it to work right away it's real easy:) and i love playing socom but my wireless router is still not configured right.. aahhw wel.. this is great :) one more reason to love my psp al little more :) and to all the moanders : " - " (nuthing;) ) you ain't worth the attention Exodium
I've been able to run Exit with MPH forever (US &EUR versions need fix)! The ones I've been waiting for are Fight Night and FIFA Sreet 2!
pspupdates ll not talk about this because when ur on XMB (the OS of the psp) u hold home and u can switch between backup (ISO :O) R for back and L for Next that is really nice u dont have to restart ur psp for choose ur iso and return on devhook again and again thye fixed because in 0.41 this was buging after 3 next iso..well GJ i hope we ll get 2.71 soon now they find how emulates Firmware withut use Flash NO CHANCE OF BRICKING IN ANYWAY !
I can't wait for dax compatibility with usb support!
This is great. I can now go purchase games like Siphon Filter and Daxter and not worry about harming the 1.5 firmware. Forget two PSP's! You guys saved me 200 bucks!
This is immence Booster is god F/W 1.5 RuleZ n! thanks
Have anyone ever got a Auto Reset to their system after using DevHooks? coz i did.... i guess its coz the 2.5 then 1.5 then 2.5 then 1.5... its prolly f****ing up the firmware numbers or sumthing
Sinx...FIFA Street 2 will work and with Fight Night, you have to do a few things but once that is done, it works as well. Will have to find the info though, because I don't know if I should post the site.
it to work , can somebody help me!!! please!!!!
how do u load isos?
Ok, one more time for the deaf dumb and blind. FORMAT THE MS FIRST. THEN AND ONLY THEN, DRAG AND DROP ALL ARCHIVED FOLDERS IN THE APPROPIATE PLACES. After you do this, a beautiful thing happens. THE PROGRAM WORKS! AND, IT DOESNT CRASH ANYMORE. Thank You. Have a pleasant day.
nocomment
i copied all of the files back onto my ms and... i ran the firmware installer like it says to and... i set all of the setting exactly like it says to on this site and... it worked idk if it was because i had a 1.5 umd in the drive or cause i formatted my ms but it doesnt matter now cause it works
good job !! thanks !! no comment
good job !! thanks !! ageofpoo IS KING !!! no comment
great job ive stuck with my 2.0 for gta and the web browser but this finally convinced me to downgrade. Can't wait to evperence the world of homebrew on the 1.5 and still have 2.5 a few seconds away. #429 you gotta say whats wrong or no one can help you
is there a different way to quit than just holding the power on till it shuts off?
Booster is God !
people keep talking about the fully functioning web browser but it says that i have to create one but i cant cause when i search for my router it says internal error. how do i get it to go online?
Hi, There seems to be a problem with the latest version 0.41a. The battery info cannot be seen, showing BLANKS in battery consumption etc.
I have the freezing problem at the start screen too....such a let down SIMS 2 works :-)
the battery display works fine. i dont think that wifi works in .41 but that i guess was expected cause they said that but do i hvae to uninstall everytning or just teh dvehook folders?
I installed version 0.4 back and seems to be fine. reinstalled version 0.41a and again battery icon flashing off and on and showing BLANKS in power consumption...... I just copied one file of version 0.41a into my folder...did I have to make any other changes?
i tried using the 0.41 and i added the 0.41a into it before i installed the firmware and the battery display worked fine. im still trying to get wifi to work though. im gonna reinstall it with 0.40 and 0.41a so i have the fix. u might have to reinstal the firmware but if it is just the battery display it doesnt really matter does it.(i guess it would bug u not knowing but w/e)
I have tried everything to make this work put the DATA.PSAR in the root of the MS and installed the devhook firmware installer, put my ISO in my ISO folder in the root of the MS and followed the directions with the devhook launcher and it keeps saying that can't load/ start devhook. I really need someone help with this one. Thanks
i was having the problem that my psp was crashing as soon as a pressed start, so i basically formatted my stick, and restored all my default settings, then i tried devhook, it works like a charm now
SOOO many people having problems because they don't understand that qj.net can't host official sony firmware files. so they arent in there. like SOOOO many, I guess theyre just used to things working right away
I keep getting the Can't start/load Devhook message whenever I try to 'start' in Devhook, and I have followed every instruction to the letter. This error is just confusing me.
after i tried this with may Japanese 1.5 white psp, all my visions changed and Booster is a real GOD! (bow bow trust me) thank u so much for this great great great news of the year just want to ask, has anyone here tried this with Tekken PSP yet? if it succeeds, i will go out and buy the UMD straight away. thanks
This is amazing, cant wait till next version. hope it has 2.60 firmware so i can play 2.60 umd on my 1.5
Im getting the same error as 248 with the cant start/load devhook, any help?
i meant 448 not 248
ten firmwares? 1.=1.0 2.=1.5 3.=1.51 4.=1.52 5.=2.0 6.=2.01 7.=2.5 8.=2.6 9.=2.70 10=2.71 I bet there will be 2.72/2.8 very very very soon...... it funny to see all the no0bs struggling, i figuered this out in like 3 mins. LOL @ n0obs
I recently buy a Neo PSP 8in1 adapter with a 4GB microdrive and surprisingly doesn't work with devhook when I try to load it from de MD, but it loads ok if I load it from my 1GB MS attached to the same adaptor, any ideas? maybe something to do with MS size or speed? I don't know this is realy weird, if anyone is having the same issue please repot it. thx
This isn't working for my 4gb micro drive either. From what I've read from other forums it just DOESN'T work with it. Tried it with my 32mb stick and works fine so I'm just going to use that until HOPEFULLY an undate is created which'll allow the 4gb microdrives to work!!
LOL HAY WOW WILL TIHS WORK ON MY 2.7 PSP I WANNA BE ABLE TO PLAY 2.0+ GAMES ON IT ANYONE
so let me get this straight 1.5 users a all happy because they can no play all there new games in iso format and use the browser without the nessacery update wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww but can it play my backup iso like fifa street tht requires 2.6
your wifi dont wokr o 333hz becoz ur heating the battery to fast and it could explode if use a normal umd that goes online then plug in ur charger u see that the red light is not online which means ur just runnng the game with battey dieing slower than usual or try to take out ur battery and just use the charger it wont run ur wifi fa_Gets plus one more thing i have a undiluter chip suckers it kicks but iam dumb i bought 4 games already weep weep , cry ,cry hahahaha
Simple question: I have a 1.5 (USA) PSP, However, when emulating 2.5 with Dev Hook my R1 UMD movies won't play? Do I have Euro 2.5 firmware perhaps? Is there anyway to tell, other than buying a R2 UMD movie of couse?
Hello, educated one.
i really don't understand how to use this. i did all above and i can't play my 2.5 game wwe: smackdown vs raw
@ www.planetpsp.org you can download a firmwarer ready package...
omfg. this is exactly why i wish sony didnt give me a refurbished 2.6 when my 1.5 broke...
http://www.psp-hacks.com/forums/about30434.html This tutorial makes it work... I already managed to play compressed ISOs with the CSO tool. These are: GTA - 570mb cso image Pinball Gotlieb - 220mb cso image EXIT (USA) - 80 mb ISO image uncompressed I am amazed by this software good luck people
Yes theres 10 firmwares, and 9 updates, 4 of which are hotfixes. Hmm, i still cant see why i cant load this on my Sony Memorystick, i'll need them to change the loading methods. Hmm, as for my previous post that was edited, i was clearly supporting pspupdates reasons for posting this article, not objecting it in anyway. For now i boot it off my 32mbstick, which i now call my MODCHIP!!! :P Its pretty cool now we can play 2.00 - 2.50 UMD's nativly... Time to buy GTA, cuz my friend miracously wants it back!
i cant seem to run iso's i put all the setting to what i should have for an iso then when i press start, it says "disk cannot be read" help please
I have to say that I was pretty annoyed with the fact that since I downgraded from 2.00 I couldn't play my legally owned GTA:LCS UMD. Since I was able to play all the other games with different loaders and such, and being a homebrew addict I patiently waited until someone solved this. And finally it has come, so I would like to praise the people behind this. Good job! And no, I do not think that PSPUpdates has done anything wrong. This is software for people like me, not all of you little ISO thieves.
these are my own ripped iso's, can someone please help me im really cunfused
"You will need to add the firmware dump from the firmware(s) that you wish to emulate. Included with the application are folders/files that specify the exact location where the files from their respective firmwares should be placed." can anyone explain that to me? where do i get the dumps from? and can anyone clarify where they go - the readme isnt to clear...
found it in the comments (i think) 307. » How to get it working Download and install DevHook on your PSP. Find and download the firmware you want to use( 2.00 or 2.50) to your PC. Use a program like PBP Unpacker and unpack a firmware to a location on your PC. From those files, copy the DATA.PSAR file to the root of your memory card. Use the devhook firmware installer program on your PSS to install the firmware fromm the DATA.PSAR file to your memory stick. Then run DEVHOOK. Good Luck!! Hope this helps some people.
stop being a nooby show off... us 1.50 users have never been able to play most 2.5+games untill now... so shut the f*ck up and go bum sony with your "up to date firmware"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
is nobody going to help me i have no idea what to do
how do you download files? everytime I try, I just end back at a page that i started at
Great! Now my PSP is bricked. Don't use this *****ty thing.
" 475. » :( Great! Now my PSP is bricked. Don't use this *****ty thing." Hah! Yeah, right. Nice try, Sony Drone

Bump... I have a 1.5 (USA) PSP, however, when emulating 2.5 with Dev Hook my R1 UMD movies won't play (says wrong region)? Do I have Euro 2.5 firmware perhaps? Is there anyway to tell, other than buying a R2 UMD movie of couse? I always thought it was the drive that was locked and nothing to do with the firmware region? *Update*: purchased a R2 UMD movie at lunch today, so will know for sure later.
this is some great stuff *XXX*
Is anyone aware of any programs comparable to PSAR Dumper or PBP Unpacker compatible with a Mac? If i can't find something like that I wont be able to isolate the Data.psar file and run this program. Thanks in advance.
2.6 sucks and i also hate Sony. #
Ok,first i'd like to give an applause to the devhook creators they f**k'n ROCK! this is why 1.5 will always rule!NOW for those that are having trouble i can help you all the same way i got help in VIDEO form!yes thats correct i found a site that has the tutorial along with all the folders and everything u need !the only thing that i can tell you is to check in google for it because you know if i post the site here the will delete my post.oh another thing the video is from a spanish site and the video is in spanish.but the video says it all regardless of lingo!hope you guys can get it because i did! :)
As usual they are scared to list "UMD ISO Loaders", but they FINALLY listed one, but guess what? They didn't mention that, LOL! The history of DevHook was it was a ISO Emulator that allowed you to play games with no UMD in the drive (Altho I assume that features was taken out for compatibility). I'm not saying "HEY EMULATE ISOs!", I'm just telling you the truth and what they forgot to mention >.>....
on me and my katamari, whats the ppf patch thing??
are u freaking serious!?
Can Monter Hunter run on 1.5 Devhook without the iso like with runUMD????
Would it be possible to update the firmware whilst its being emulated? I mean, whilst in devhook using fw2.50, could we go to network update or download the eboot and update it? Or maybe create custom firmwares to emulate. Or maby even that epsilon custom bios flash replacement. hmmmmm.... I'd like to know. cheesy
I can't post up sites but if you google around you will find the necessary information. Just takes some digging around =D
That's an awesome IDEA!!!!!!
Is Syphon Filter Working Yet?????
I came across this program on mininova under games with all the firmware files where they are suppossed to be. I took a risk and tested it and it works fine. Saves me the headache of finding them myself and trying to put it all together myself. Hope this helps some of you.
but i only have a 1gb ms so i cant fit in on there but i saw a ciso compression program but does any1 know if that works with this?
It cant hurt your PSP by trying it CISO'd. The worst that can happen is it will crash and you will have to reboot. Although I have not tried a ciso'd .iso I think I am running a modified verdsion of field commander.
YES there is a copy of the Sims 2 that is 472MB, i have tried it and it DOES work. it's a .cso. just look around on BT.
# 478 I thought Me and my katamari required 2.6+? Please Clarify.
HEY What if WE update to 2.7 with DEVHOOK on 2.5? I wonder what will happen?
You will brick your PSP. Confirmed.
i did all that and theres no web browser...
This program is cool. It works fine on my psp ! Thanks to the developer :-)
Thanks for the hint ASTROPUNK! For those in need there are firmware loaded versions of this program out there that do not require the dh_inst folders and thus make this program as easy to use as any popular emulator. Time for me to go BUY some games and give Sony some of the money all their ludicrous fw updates has screwed them out of!
Nice.
Thanks 498 Love psp 1.5!!! Great program Great work have a nice day
HaHA UP YOURS SONY!!!! now we can play anything and still run homebrew you just saved my psp.
has anyone downgraded their psp from 2.0 to 1.5 and get this working? i keep getting the black screen when launching dev hook.
Finally can go out and buy new games. As far as the iso loader, I don't mind shelling out money for a good game, however you could use the iso loader to see if thier worth buying. What an awesome program .... first time I have played my psp in months
Make sure you install the .40 then the .41 then the .41a update for starters the you have to have the 2.50 firmware dump in your 2.50 firmware folder and then follow the directions pspupdates laid out for you already. hit start psp is in 2.50 mode. Yes I had a 1.5 upgraded to 2.0, downgraded back to 1.5 and installed this program, works like a charm.
ok now since alot of u guyz have been wanting help here it iz go here http://www.psp-hacks.com/forums/about30434.html (i know it wuz already put but o well) download the files he put and copy the dh and psp on 2 the root of the psp (next 2 the psp folder) next get a 2.50 update from psp-hacks ull also need pbp unpacker to get data.psar from the update get the DATA.PSAR u got and put it on the root of the psp now after all that is done diconnect ur psp from ur computer and run devhook firmware installer and do what it sayz after itz done u go to devhook v0.40 sample launcher and choose your settings (Listed in the steps at the top of this page above the comments) then press start and you should be running 2.50 on ur 1.50 psp (which seems really familiar to mph firmware installer) o and to go back to 1.50 simply turn off your psp all the way if this tutorial wuz too confusing 4 you just follow what the guy saz on psp-hacks(the link i provided at the top) u guyz on pspupdates should really help ppl out i mean come on, no 1 helped me so i spent three days lookin at this. Hav a little more respect HOPE THIS HELPS $-CRAZYMUNKY-$ 1.50 RULEZ
i think it has something to do with firmware dumps that wasn't correct. i loader the firmware over and over again then finally it works. nice apps. thanks for the help guys!
Scan the file psp\game\dh_inst\eboot.pbp using PSafeP, it says "WARNING: SUSPICIOUS FLASH ACCESS DETECTED!".
anyones psp had any weird problems down the line with this program?
All the features of 1.5 AND 2.5 on just one psp! This is a real kick in the nuts for anyone that bought 2 psps :P Also, does anyone else's psp feel like it just got heavier?
no i dont really get what u mean
this program i think does mess with the flash wondering if problems could or would develop down the road from constantly loading this program
what would really happen it would just stop using the flash and it might ruin the ms but u can always use a smaller cheaper ms then if it ever breaks u can just spend 20 more bucks on a new one and i dont really think that it will break the ms.
Get working on some 2.60 stuff :). I'm loving this program so far. It's great!
arggggh where tf can I get a 2.5 dump, been searching 4 a while....... blah pffft and all that. Is it possible 2 make a dump of an uninstalled update???? prob not.....

517: What do you mean dump of uninstalled firmware, thats data.psar isn't in....
the first release included the firmwares all around, but then someone made a note that it was an illegal download, seeing that Sony has copyrights and all that, so the download was changed 2 a non inc. fw....... SO I WANT THE DUMPS!!!!!!!!!!! GIVE THEM 2 ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please.......? pretty please............

Search "PSP_Device_Hook_Sample_Launcher_v0[1].40_FULL Folder"! Install this version on your PSP and throw away the version you already put there.
hi ppl, i got dev hook to work and my legally owned back ups of burnout legends and socom work like a charm even in multiplayer, however, when i try to play gta:LCS (legally owned backup) , i do all the options and then hit start. the psp reboots and all that comes up is a black screen. I hit home and return to see that the program is working as i am on v2.5, and the psp thinks that the umd inserted is gta, however when i hit start to start gta allo i get is the black screen again. Please can you help me guys, i would really appreciate it
Check if your settings are correct and using an unmodified version of GTA.
Anyone notice that the memory stick is accessed a ton. For example in GTA it lags really bad because of memory stick access. I thought the ms was faster than a umd. I dont remember other loaders accessing the ms and it slowing the game down. Its been a while since I dusted off the psp. Thanks Booster for the reason to break out the ole psp out of its dusty unused case!
make sure its not named .iso it should be name .ISO in capitals, i was having the same problems
http://www.psp-hacks.com/forums/about30434.html look at the first post. the download has Devhook .41 fully set up with the 2.00 firmware dump and 2.50 firmware dump. just copy, use the menu instructions and thats it.
I have not got the 2.5 firmware. I use the 2.0 firmware instead. I´ve managed to surf on the Internet and use different backgrounds, but I can not emulate a game. Not UMD (I tried the game GTA), and not iso-games (I tried tennis world tour and prince of persia). The PSP frezzes instead. Anyone else having the same problem?
#528. Thanks for the tip but didnt make a difference at all for me. When driving its hard to keep the car on the road because the ms is accessed so often that the frame rate drops. Im glad that worked for you but didnt make a bit of difference for me....
email me at av4237@yahoo.com if u cant find it i dont remember where i found mine but i could send it to u if u want.
i just clicked files on this site and clicked firmwares on the left side of the screen. and there they both are
do what #524 says, thats the one........ and #533, thats the update eboot firmwares u downloaded from this site, if u extract them with something like pbp unpacker, you'll end up with data.psar and data.psp, and I dont think you can use them with this app, you'll have to have the flash folders.... Am I right about this, could someone verify??
I canthake for granted that you know that you can use the faster speed on the cpu when not using wifi?
is this app emulating 2.0 - 2.5 on top of 1.5 on the psp. is that why setting the cpu to 333 will make it work better because the psp is running two firmware at the sametime? and is there a difference running this app only at 222 vs 333?
#535 GTA is Silky smooth now with 33mhz enabled. thanks for the tip even though it should have been obvious. I read alot of talk about not running at 333 for web browser and didnt think to set the game to 333 to fix the ms access problem. Thanks again! Thank you Booster!!
sorry if this has been said already, but a new update, or mod rather, that allows WiFi access while clocked at 333MHz. And I was just curious... and not at all inclined to try it... but what would happen if you were to run an update ebbot while devhook is running? Propably nothing good, that's for sure lol
Hey people, i have the devhook sample launcher installed on my 1.5 psp, and i was to quik with using the firmware-installer,( i used it with a umd socom 2.00 psp)this is what happened, the installer begins to instal many many things but the problem is that in my oppinion you DON'T have to do this???? am i right,,,, because now when i start devhook sample lancher it doesn't work anymore, i know its my own fault because on this site nobody talks about to use the FIRMWAREINSTALLER FIRST, so i was to quik by pressing the buttons......... Does anybody got an answer for this jurk??????
the reason it worked before was u werent trying to emulate firmware only 1.5 isos but then u went to try a 2.0+ game and u dont have the firmware 2.5 installed so that is y it doesnt work
lol
huh??
I have downloaded many devhook040/041 packages but cant get it to boot my ISOs. It reboots in 2.5/ 2.0 installed but how do you get it to launch an iso ? I've tried Bof3, worldpoker s. 2 but they dont work. It lets you browse the mem stick and then It gives a region error when launching anything after that. Any help guys.
This app is excellent. Please add region free, I have several multi region UMD's and ISO's..
Oh it works wonderfully....thanks guys...thank you so much, ive been itching to play Smackdown Vs Raw 2006, and there was never a way on my 1.5 until now....God Bless you each and everyone of you...im like a 6 year old boy on Christmas day!!!
Hey - please take a moment - i'm pulling what's left of my hair out - ALL DAY! i've got devhook .40 working and i've over-written with .41 and .41a, but... when i run the app - it continues to display .40 (in 2 locations on the memory stick) what am i doing wrong? i'm trying to get me & my katamari (patched) to work and it keeps going to a black screen loading with what i believe is .40 Thanks in advance!
i thought that he juts wanted the eboots but if someone needs the data.psar files i hav them still. u can email me at av4237@yahoo.com and i will send them to u.
does anyone know if daxter works?
Hey guys I need help i'm having trouble with the 0.41 devhook update. Can someone list step by step on how to make it work. I download it unpack it from zip file then where do I go from there.

does the 2.50 boot firmare may be install in the psp? (excuse my language i am french)
This is an amazing piece of software, thankyou very very much Booster.
Great Work Booster , thanks man for the time you spind to help the others.
the 2.50 official sony pbp update may be installed, but it isn't recommended instead, use the insaller eboot that comes with the app, and use a 2.5 umd with it. it will automatically extract the files for you. then, just fiddle around with the startup options in the actual devhook app until you get it to start correctly if you are still having trouble, try extracting the 2.0 files in the same manner as the 2.5, then restart the app (p.s. I know, I have the same grammar problem with learning French)
now that this program is out i was wondering is there a good game that requires 2.0 or higher i already have gta and socom but is there another game taht is good??
There's a new version. 0.41b I don't know what's new in this version.. but it comes with the source code..! http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6AG8JEXP
what folders do i install these things to? im trying to get this thing to work im not very good at this!
then extract all of the files out of the rar file. then copy all of the files to ur ms. u need to get the data.psar files out of hte 2.00 and the 2.50 eboot files put the 2.00 data.psar file in the root of ur memory stick then run the firmware installer program when finished put the 2.50 data.psar file in the root and rerun the firmware installer. then u need to have a 2.00+ umd game to run this. just put all of the settings to what they are at the top of this page. but to run an iso just change it to iso with any umd. if u cant find the eboots or cant figure out how to get the data.psar files out of the ebbot just email me at av4237@yahoo.com
how do you make Monster Hunter (usa) work... I get to the loading screen and it freezes right away. I've tried iso-noumd, iso-anyumd, and im using .41 devhook
my fight night round 3 iso works with devhook but when i try and go muitplayer it gose u have been disconnected......can someone help me plz
Download PSafeP from here, and app that scans an EBOOT.PBP file to see whether it reads from/writes to the PSP's flash memory. http://www.maxconsole.net/?mode=gotodownload&downloadid=1172 If you scan it yourself, you'll find that Devhook does. Now i'm not gonna try and p*** on anyones bonfire, but i am inclined that the reports of bricked PSPs are valid. This version of Devhook has only just been released remember, making it prone to being buggy (no disarespecta to the pioneers behind this software at all), and there are other third party browsers that do almost as good a job. Be patient, and wait for a more stable release, and don't use this software to load illegally obtained retail games.
Does anyone know the techincal reason Devhook doesn't work with the 4gb HDD addon? I've never had any problem with any other homebrew, but Devhook simply powers off the PSP. I tried it with my default 32mb duo pro stick and it works fine. I'm just curious why the difference in media has anything to do with how the App itself runs...
i had it working for one night with my datel.... get up the next day and it works no more..... fightnight 3 was great for a night... i want to play again... someone please fix this if at all possible.....
I just did an ad-hoc multiplayer game with my bud :)

rar'd FWC 2006 from www.newpct.com n turned to iso then launched with devhook, just got blank screen! anybody got same probl's!
does this application have a chance of bricking PSP's PLEASE REPLY
to my knowledge this program has no way of bricking ur psp. the only complaints are of it corrupting ur settings. but if u do it right u will be fine.
Fair enough drew4237, i agree that it cant be much more dangerous tha any other loader that tricks the PSP into believeing its a firmware that its not, but download this program and scan the EBOOT for yourself: http://www.maxconsole.net/?mode=gotodownload&downloadid=1172 I can appreciate that other loaders access the flash too, but none of them screw your settings over. Just get the Links browser if you're only after a browser, its almost as good IMHO.
HEy guys, since this can emulate full 2.5 firmware, can u use the change background thing and have ur background changed for when u go back to 1.5?? I have flashmod, but it doesn't do full res. ------PLEASE HELP--------
Help me plzzzzz. I cant get on the internet. If i wanna try to scan the ssid from my router it gives an error. Help me plz
FOR ALL THE GUYS WHO COULD NOT GET IT WORKING AND HAD THE BLACK SCREEN PROBLEM CRASH GO HERE: http://www.savefile.com/files.php?fid=4502899 Format your memory stick and copy exactly whats in that rar file over to your memory stick and it will work.
Can anyone who knows allot about programming please explain what makes this safe? If it only reads the flash memory, then why does PSafeP say that it writes to it? TIA
u cant use the 0.41 version to go online u will have to delete the 0.41 files and only install 0.40 @571 yes i realize that but that is what that program said about the downgrader and i have yet to hear about that ever bricking a psp. but if i am wrong please correct me but i hvae downgraded my psp about 5 times cause i like homebrew but i also wanted to play gta so i would upgrade and downgrade every once in a while, this was before this came out obviously.
OK, i reckon its pretty safe, the actual loader doesnt touch the flash, its only the prog that extracts the firmware that you only use once, so it should be OK. I was just worried, because im cool with messing around with the flash memory, i downgraded my PSP to use the homebrew as you did, but i dont want to use an app if i think its constantly screwing around with the flash memory, cos thats just dangerous. Whats this you say about 0.41 not working online? I can connect to my network fine, but when i type an address into the browser it crashes? Cheers Bud!
Well i formatted a spare pro Duo twice and the 2.00 browser worked, i was gonna fromat my other one but thought id try ther 2.5 browser first, which works perfectly. 2.00 still crashes at the same point on that stick. Strange lol.
would I be able to downgrade/upgrade back to 1.5? since it thinks it is 2.5 now.
Not at the moment, no, there is no possible way despite what anyone tells you. Whether a 2.5 downgrader will appear in the future is anyones guess, but don't mess with your flash memory unless you know what your doing, and are confident the process is safe and works.
do I need the 2.50 dump to make this work?
all u have to do is hold the power switch up till it shuts off then turn it back on. but if u acctually did upgrade it then there is nothing u can do
FIFA 2006 works perfect for me... but I found it a bit boring compared to PES5 so I deleted it :P

some how i can play my (UMD)wwe 2006_ 2.5 firmware on my 2.0 psp i believe it is because i used runumd to acquire the game's flash firmware when i bought it 1.52 downgraded 1.5 upgraded via 2.0 GTA(UMD) it never worked before on my 2.0 firmware but after using the loader whilst it was at firmware 1.5 and then upgrading via GTA(UMD) it can now play wwe 2006(UMD) its great coz i can still downgrade and use Devhook
will it really turn your psp into a 2.5 because it took me a while to get it to 1.5,also does anyone know where to get a 2.6 downgrader or a ps1 emulator

I have a PSP-1000K (japanese) and i'm having trouble playing "legal backups" using a region 2 UMD Movie within the emulated "again japanese" 2.50 firmware. When i insert the disc it says "This disc cannot be started. The region code is not correct." As far as i know region 2 umd movies are compatible with japanese psp's, so does anyone comment on this issue please? PS: I know it works if you use a UMD game disc, it's been written several times. What i want to know is why it gives that error when i put a region 2 UMD movie to my japanese psp which is emulating 2.50 japanese firmware. isn't that a bit odd?
does this work with 2.01+

OK EVERYONE, stop complaining and listen up. After freaking out about this myself I followed the instuctions and everything worked fine. I think one part is missed and that is you have to run the firmware installer. When the instructions don't tell you is what exactly happens. Download and extract all the files you need, such as the eboot.php (what ever firmware you need) and devhook. Put the dh folder from devhook on the root of the memory stick. Drag or copy the psp folder to the root of the memorystick also. Copy the data.psar file to the root of the memory stick. so you will have a directory structure like so /DH /PSP /GAME DEVHOOK DEVHOOK% DEV_INST DEV_INST% DATA.PSAR Now that everything is installed you need to run the firmware installer program FIRST. What this does is copies the firmware information to the correct folders in the DH folder. When ever you are in emulation mode system calls and programs related to your firmware(web browser) are executed from the memory stick and not the real firmwares' memory location. After you start the firmware installer you will see a lot of text telling you what it's doing, then you will have a choice to exit or copy some other files. Just exit. Now run the devhook program, use the setting menu to do what you want, load umd, iso, what ever. select start. What happens now is the psp will reboot and load the updated firmware from the memory stick. What you now have is the EMULATED version of the firmware you selected, NOT the original 1.5. If you have the umd loaded already it will self load. Now you can play around like you have a 2.5 psp and get on the internet and whatnot. To get back to 1.5 simply shut the psp down by hold the power switch for 7-10 seconds and then the thing boots up you are golden. *Sidenote, because the original instrustion weren't very clear, and no one explained what was going on, I seriously though I upgraded my firmware, and was PISSED. The firmware installer needs to explain this when is starts so it doesn't confuse anyone. Anyway, so I ended up running the recently released downgrader, and all seemed fine, THANK GOD I DID NOT BRICK MY PSP. My wife would have been pissed that I would have had to buy another psp. All of this is from a clean install, if you have devhook already installed, just delete the file and start over. After I downgraded from the fake firmware, I couldn't get devhook to load the emulated firmware untill I started from scratch. Now everything works good. One thing I have not tried is to use the GTA exploit to run other programs, to scared to try :)
how the hell do i do this, it doesnt work IM me at hotrocks22 PLEASE!
i follow what u mentioned... but, my psp shut down instead of restarting.. when i tried to start my psp again... i am still in fw 1.5. how do i go about it to get it done?? tks!
I dont see a DATA.PSAR anywhere in the download.
you guys ahve to go to other websites to download the firm wares.... comment #634 shows you how to get things done, but you still need a few programs to get that data.psar on your root of your memory stick
Is there anyway of going back to plain old 1.5 after using this?
can someone please help me i have no idea how to work this. it keeps saying files currupted. i must not be doing somthin right. if someone can i-m me at quicksilver059@aol.com
Im a *****en idiot, i just updated my psp thats why nothing works. Some one plz hack the 2.71
i already explained this post 582 would it kill u to just read but all u have to do is hold the power switch up untill the psp shuts off about 5-10 sec and then turn it back on and u should be back in 1.5
gkkjgj
After it rebooted it was still on 1.5 and didn't have the web browser or anything i have tried everything i might as well upgrade to 2.6
where do i put the firmware dumps and how do i get theM?
