Devhook 0.46 Plugin - Reboot to 1.5 Unveiled

DevHook 0.46

Lots of you were ecstatic when Booster recently updated this special application called DevHook to v0.46. Your comments said it all -- excitement, happiness, amazement among many others, but aside from that, lots of PSP gamers were asking if there's a way to get out of emulated firmware 2.71 back to 1.50 without switching off the PSP. Well, we may just have the solution for that.

logicbomb.de shared through our forums about this app: a DevHook 0.46 Plugin that will allow you to reboot to 1.5 without turning off the PSP. But let us just clarify that logicbomb.de wasn't the one who created this plugin. According to him, at first he didn't really have an idea who made this, but thanks to some info that was passed on to him, he divulges that we could now credit this creation to developer, Saturne_1606.

Shifting our focus to the plugin, this one will enable you lucky PSP owners to reboot to 1.5 from anywhere in the 2.71 XMB by holding the HOME and START buttons. How to install this? All you have to do is extract the contents of this folder to the root (ms:/ ) of your memorystick and overwrite the existing vshex.prx file. This one is actually like jas0nuk's original reboot to 1.5 mod which only worked on 2.5 emulation. Also the developer can't be held responsible for anything bad that happens to your PSP while using this plug-in, keep that in mind always. With that aptly stated, let us know your suggestions, opinions, and other what-nots through your comments.

I swear you can reboot back to 1.5 by just selecting the "2.71 Exit" eBoot from the 2.71 XMB?

2.8 isn't useful yet, are there even games that support it?

Reply
 

 
# so what ?Guest 2006-08-01 00:09
@5 , yeah that was just what i was thinking there's already an escape from 2.xx to 1.5 app with devhook and i'm pretty sure no reboot is required.

# Goat goat frogGuest 2006-08-01 00:10
Ahh you have been able to reboot to 1.5 since like .43 maybe before, using the L + R + Up shortcut... why do people keep making stuff like this... there is already stuff in built... so you have to be loading or quitting a game, so what... weird o' weird

Reply
 

 
# 10: With this you doesnt need to start a game to rebootGuest 2006-08-01 00:23
(which I really hated cuz it takes time and is boring). With this you only need to press HOME+START (same that could be done with 0.43, I think). I will go for this one, thanks!

Reply
 

 
# which one is betterGuest 2006-08-01 00:30
afaik the home+start mod makes a hard reboot of the psp, whereas the exit-eboot delivered with devhook makes a soft exit to 1.5.



maybe someone could check whether it is saver to use the eboot version (whether the eboot exists "savely" from devhook closing all open ms0-access-threads first).

# @12Guest 2006-08-01 00:52
You don't need to be starting a game it works when you are quiting one too... And seeing as those most of us are emulating to load games anyway... it makes perfect sense to me... but bleh

# seriously...citizen 2006-08-01 01:49
come on people.... why would you wanna exit devhook @ first place? besides all the shortcut keys, all you do is hold the power button up, and you're back to 1.5... It'll take you longer just to post a comment, or even think about "an exit shortcut". that's bs =]

All It Does Is The Same Thing As The Power Button....

So If You Have A Custom Firmware Like I Do That Depending On The Posistion Of The WLAN Switch It'll Just Throw You Right Back Into 2.71....Which I Did Feeling Stupid...lol

Get one "Devhook0.46 Full Auto Installer". After successfully installed into your PSP, extract Devhook 0.46 plugin. Copy file vshex.prx from the plugin to ms0:\dh\kd\ and overwrite the old one. Emulate your DH0.46 to 2.71. In the emulated main menu(XMB), just press Home + Start. It should/will go back to 1.50. Walla !!!!!

I like this plugin, thank you saturn 1606 they should not have even mentioned the guy who found it cause I found this awhile ago jeez, man pspupdates you suck.



anyways I have a question when i installed this my custom gameboot video was changed to the default one. Did this happen to anyone else?

Reply
 

 
# To 28ground_sniper 2006-08-01 04:03
Of Course The Gameboot Is Going To Change..Its The Devhook Emulation Of 2.71 As If You Just Did A Cold Restart Of The Psp Your Actual Gameboot Should Be Fine But When You Boot DevHook It Should Be The Standard Gameboot.

# ENOUGH!!!Jake Hoshgothen 2006-08-01 07:45
For those of you who can't resist bashing Logicbomb.de, I have some news to share with all of you. If any of you found this wonderfully useful little tidbit as you claim, why did you not share it with the rest of us? The day will truely be sad when we are all too selfish to share what we know about the PSP with others. So you found it two weeks ago. Whop de doo. You didn't post it here or let the mods know, so you should be hanging your heads in shame for the feeling of 'look, I have something you don't have.' This is how many other consoles had their mod scene evaporate. Everyone was too covegous to share their finds with anyone else.



Logicbomb.de, you truely do have a point. You have contributed more to this community by sharing this than any of the above mentioned people should ever dream of doing. With that in mind, please accept my thanks.



Cheers,

Jake Marvolo Hoshgothen

"@ dragoon, your whole family is a waste of time.

you'll come back here crying like a little turd when your powerswitch breaks. not everyone want to powerdown their psp every time they exit devhook. this is obviously too "Technical" for a imbecile like you to understand so its clear why you think this is a wast of time."

by lllegal Machine, at Aug 01, 2006 at 09:49AM



You are SO right! My family is a waste of time, they should all die.

You can make fun of my family, I could honestly care less, But saying it's too "Technical" for me is just incorrect.. I've been programming with various languages for years and believe me, this has nothing to do with the "Technical" aspect. Grow up.



" 46. ยป wow lok at me

nocomment"



Yeah, nice one.. That was actually an accident, but feel free to make fun of me.. It's sad enough you don't have anything productive to do, though.



@logicbomb

It's great that you are contributing to the community, I just have no use for this..



"so sorry your threads don't make the front page or get more than 5,000 page views in less than a week."



Stop acting like you are better than everyone else. No one CARES if a thread they started gets 'more than 5,000 page views in less than a week'!

And for the record, I never went to the forum thread about any of this.

my devhook doesnt work. when i try to emulate 2.71 it gives me the corrupt setting push o to reset them but it doesnt work. then i tried emulating 2.6 and it worked fine i already had it installed for gta cheat device. then i reinstalled the 2.71 firmware files but it still doesnt work. i was wondering if i will have to reinstall the whole this or just part of it?

# DevhookGuest 2006-08-01 21:41
This looks like a nice little feature but as all the other people were saying it's not really necessary. Does anyone know if Devhook properly functions on the Psp-1000 models? I'm still reluctant to get a new one but if it doesn't work on it I think I have to. (I bought mine at release in Hong Kong)

Reply
 

 
# THhs one doesnt work that good...Guest 2006-08-02 00:14
The PSP did crash when I tried it for the third time, so its more stable to use the "2.71 Exit" eBoot from the 2.71 XMB" or just do the L+R+up when quiting a game...

Reply
 

 
# problemsGuest 2006-08-02 01:06
ever since i got devhook it would not let me set some website/file to load once i start the browser it always says cannot read or something so i tryed doing a fresh devhook on a friends memory stick still didnt work tryed on the 32meg that came with my psp and also no luck so i tryed removing the memory stick while devhook was loaded then placing it back in woolah loaded a flash file then when i tryed to load another file on the stick boom didnt work again so once again i removed the put the mem stick back on tryed again, worked then would not let me go back due to error i mentioned earlier tryed the remove replace method again and it worked does anyone know why???? i do remember a while back with the older devhook it worked...

# DEVHOOK WILL LIVE!Guest 2006-08-04 11:07

# Wow you guys really are some selfish hypocrites!Guest 2006-08-04 14:57
Ok let's get this straight.. some of you are cussing Sony because they are trying to stop a software that supports piracy?



they ****ing made the PSP! so learn to be more considerate.. Devhook may only provide a way to play "backup" of your games (we all know it's more than that), but that is no excuse to say anything about Sony for doing what they have right to.



So take a ****ing chill pill, enjoy Devhook from another site and let Sony get on with their business.

I see the word "PSP" alot in this site. What is PSP? I assume it is some type of gaming device? You young people spend way to much time playing computer games these days. What about education? You should be going to the Library and reading books.



Shame, Shame Shame.
