Emulation heaven: Booster's back with DevHook v0.50 - fw2.8x emulation! |
Ó
Ho-ho-ho, Merry Chri-ZOMG! Did someone just mention Booster in the title? Out of nowhere and months of being MIA in the PSP scene, Booster's back with a glorious re-entry complete with streamers, confetti, and a full brass band. And you thought that he pulled a Britney Spears and abandoned the unsuspecting Kevin Federline that is the homebrew community? Time to do some rumor-squashing. And there's no better way to squash those rumors than with releasing DevHook 0.50 - which emulates fw 2.8x (yep, that means 2.80 to 2.82)!
[waits for cheers, shouts, and orgasms to die down]
After all of the speculation we've had going on for the past few days and weeks, we can finally rest easy and move one step closer to homebrew freedom. Booster's homebrew application which allows you to emulate various firmware versions is now released. Christmas can't get any brighter and blessings do come in threes. Especially after Dark_AleX's 2.71 SE-C Custom Firmware and Noobz's 3.00/3.01 Firmware Dumper and Decrypter magic, having Booster back in the scene is enough of a miracle to put Handel's "Hallelujah" Chorus to shame.
By the way, as we mentioned, this emulates only up to fw 2.82, so don't be fooled by the folder that says "3.01". Although it is said that 3.01 emulation is in the works, that magic ain't included in this release yet.
It might not be "the BIG 3-OH", but is anyone complaining? Now for that early Christmas present delivered straight from Booster's busy workshop!

Idiots. That banner is the "return-to-1.50" one from when I released that Devhook mod. Looks like a 3 year old designed it. Grats to BOOSTER, Mathieulh, Dark_AleX and everyone else involved with the release.

Does that mean that i can downgrade my 2.80 psp to 1.50 or it just means i can emulate 2.80 on a 1.50 psp?
just put this onto my psp with 2.71SEC firmware and it wont run any umd or without umd, wtf?
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! can i play socom ftb 2 now? online that is?
no it manes that anyone with a 1.5 (or 2.71 SE-C) can run it.
Does anybody know how to upgrade from 0.46 to this, the instructions are all in Japanese or something
You can emulate 2.8+ on a 1.50 psp or on Dark Alex's custom firmware only.

why is everyone so exited? 2.8x is exactly the same as 2.71, it has the same features, the only difference is you can automaticly SAVE video streams, when i say automatic i mean YES you can do it manualy on 2.71, you just need irshell, and personaly ive only done it once or twice, plus every 2.8x game runs fine on 2.71, so this release means nothign to me, thanks booster though fo all your hard work and dedication to the scene, but i have to admit this is a pointless update and i would have apriciated it more if you would concentrate on 2.71, personaly im sorry to say i wont be installing this yet, 2.71 and 2.71 se are all i, and everyone else, needs.
WINRAR
dumb you! its the process that counts, leading to da 3.0
oops made a mistake, (and i would apriciate it if you would concentrate more on 3.0*) sry
good old booster! champion! i have been getting quite annoyed by all these people releasing 'updates' to devhook which do almost nothing. what is the point in firmware 2.8/2.82 ? what benefits does it have over 2.7x ?
i couldn't get this working.only runs fw 2.71...but fw 2.82,that's awesome anyway...
This devhook keeps turning my psp off, its annoying evrything goes black and then after 2 mins it just turns it self off. Can any1 help?
Someone send me a 2.82 dump? buff_rob1256@hotmail.co.uk Thanks in advance.
can you read??
You should try reading the article.
Thank you Booster.
you're funny
congrats to all who were patient and waiting for an update! thank you to booster! we missed ya man. it's good to have you back.
does this work with eloader? * i have a 2.71 psp * i cant get the swap trick to work w/ the new vice city and this is great only if i could run it >.>
have you done all the crazy firmware dump stuff?
Can someone please send me the dump :) please
has anyone got 2.82 working yet? I cant read the readme cause it is in a different language. It would be great help to everyone if someone who knows how to install it to create step by step guide. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
some one plz upload the dump thx

Every comment here means: "I came!!!!!!!!!!!, send me de dump please"

What's the point? I just bet you're one of those morons, haha.

Thank you Booster! I knew you were waiting for 3.0 to come out, nice strategy. You are truly the best.
you'll need a 2.82 fw dump
ty booster for all your hard work and dedication! one question, won't sony be after your ass now?
2.8 is not the same as 2.71. 2.8 has updated video and audio prx's which is why newer games with the old devhook have audio/video probs. try running cabela's safari or a non-patched version of star trek on 2.71 devhook and tell me if it works or not genious. 2.8 has gps and chotto shot camera prx's for those that have it u stupid f***!
same for me the read text is unreadable im im afraid to brick my psp someone help!
if u get it to work please tell me!!
make the dumps yourself retards. get the noobz universal psar dumper and the download the updates. use psp brew to extract the psar from the updates. put one in the root of your memstick and run the noobz psar dumper. there a firmware dump you lazy fu*kers!
Dump pls, I am lazy. Tnx booster is no. 1. Good work. :-)
what da heck is the audio.prx (step4) for? do i have 2 overwrite the 2.82 audio.prx or whaat? ----------------------- FW2.82(2.80) 1.copy "MS_ROOT/*" of devhook to "ms0:/" 2.copy unpacked FW2.71updater file to "ms0:/DATA.PSAR" 3.run "PSAR Dumer V2B(2.80 or 3.00)" and press square button. 4.copy "ms0:/F0/kd/audio.prx" to keep your folder. 5.delete "ms0:/F0" folder. 6.copy unpacked FW2.82 updater file to "ms0:/DATA.PSAR" 7.run "PSAR Dumer V2B(2.80 or 3.00)" and press cross button 8.move "ms0:/F0/*.*" to "ms0:/dh/282/F0/*.*" 9.run "DEVHOOK0.50 ENG launcher" from XMB. 10.if devhook files are installed to flash1 then uninstall it first. 11.select "FLASH ROM" > "flash1: < ms0: install configfile" and press circle long. 12.select "FIRMWARE" > "FW2.82" 13.select "START" then reboot PSP. 14.repare setting and reboot again.
People demanding dumps; there is an app for the psp (PSARDumper or sth like that) that takes care of dumping firmwares from their eboots for you. All firmwares are decryptable using this method (am i wrong?)
Socom FTB2 !!!! u think we'll be able to use usb?
Yes I've got it to work ! You have to follow the readme file word for word just loaded thrillville Thanks Booster !!!!
thanks booster you the man!
booster, if possible, i'd like to have the opportunity to shake your hand and buy u a fat ass steak
idiot
Anyone that wants a dump. Give me your home address, and I'll go ahead and send you a nice big dump. I can only ship out 2 a day, so please be patient!
Very new to this sceen. I have a psp that has 2.8 firmware. I have e/x loader that a friend had loaded for me and taught me to use. Now that a Devhook has been released for 2.8 firmware does this mean that I am able to load iso's of the memory card, and if it do not what does it mean for me and others with 2.8 firmware. Because a few people have asked for a downgrader, is that need to play iso's. Please help.
that wasnt a first post thing cuz it was second post retard
Anyone got a 2.82 firmware dump???
Thanks booster for this, I look forward adding this to my psp. Keep um coming, respects

when you have got the 2.82 files on your card you have to copy over the audio.prx file from 2.71 to 2.82 and it then works without crashing the audio file is in F0/kd Hope this helps thanks booster your the best !
Same here with 2.82 dump :( Btw i have flashed 2.82 hybrid files to flash0 (4 prx).

im not sure about the rapidshare file that was poster
i dont get the fwinstall readme how do i install firmware 2.82 onto devhook??
can someone email me the dump files please. pricethepig2002@gmail.com thanks
posted*
i had an orgasm
Hope this is enough encouragement and inspiration for Dark Alex to go on. Every seems to have already forgotten him even after the countless hours he's put into the homebrew scene. So just think the next time you are playing your devhook who helped you downgrade you psp... p.s. this is for the n00bs who think hacks grows off trees
has anyone got this working for 2.71 SE C or other SE's i have dumped 2.82 and copied it to that folder in MS0:\dh\282 where does reboot.bin go and data1 data0 a IPL do we leave them as in dump or as in previous dh amd put them in fw folder
Why do you want his babies?
^faq
Thank you! It's real everybody and includes reboot.bin
i installed the files to my harddrive and there does not seem to be any viruses....so i would go ahead and try it..
I don't think that Booster wants to have babies with you.
anyone tested the rapidshare file yet
I'll be sending my dumps via mail to anyone who requests them.
hell no .. u cant boot 3.01 .. not yet dude.
It might be a bricker...but I dunno. Is booster or someone else gonna realise an installer for this? Becuase everyone is extremely confused.
tryed still having probs its not a bricker thank feck, I go to start in the dev hook option than it simply goes black and crashes, help please
"booster you kick so much ass can i have you babies?"
i really need help installing this the readme is like soo unclear please someone whos very helpful thanks
AGAIN!!!! I WILL BE GLAD TO SEND A LINK TO THE 2.8x DUMP FILES IF YOU JUST E-MAIL ME..I DO NOT THINK THAT PSPUPDATES ALLOWS YOU TO GIVE OUT LINKS HERE. SO SIMPLY E-MAIL ME @ JCHAIKE@GMAIL.COM
they were only after him because he released a copyrighted file in one of his past releases. Because that file isn't included anymore, there shouldn't be a problem..
moshn1@hotmail.com
Happy Holidays All!!! Well I would just like to say the instructions are a bit hard for me to understand. It's not simple A,B,C's and 1,2,3's. If anynone has finished installing it on thier PSP can you email me the files for mine? Thanks sephieroth@hotmail.com.
i can help on friday...e-mail me for more info...jchaike@gmail.com
how do you upgrade from devhook .46 to .50?
Hey man thanks for the rapidshare link, this auto installer works fine and everything is all set-up. Heres link again: http://rapidshare.com/files/5372905/Devhook.50.exe
lol
Welcome back booster, welcome back
This link is Gay !!!! Try another way
has anybody got this working on a 2.71 SE i followed your instructions but it does not work
I m starting to think this dosent work, I tried 20 times, All failed, I went to 4 other forums, Got TONS of reports this isnt working, If you got this to work on 2.71 SE-C, Please tell me!
are you saying that this doesnt work? I heard that it works fine?
here's standalone files, i suppose using a exe from a stranger is scary http://rapidshare.com/files/5370560/devhook.50.rar but i swear that installer works
Woah Woah Woah Calm Down!!!
trust him. ive had reports from people it works
atothendrew24@yahoo.com
I LOVE YOU BOOSTER!
The rapidshare link (the .exe one) is real, all the right files are there, however I can't get it to work on 2.71 se-c. If you got this working on the se-c fw, post the settings you've used here.
for some reason my psp turns off when i try running 2.82
I used the installer and it wont load 2.82, I am using SE-C
does it need a umd in it. ?
Y release a Beta that does not work, we all keep pressing the start button on the menu and nothing happens it goes black and turns off, for all those that got it working what are yr settings. Should we wait for Booster to fix this in a Final Version?
I pressed "FLASH ROM" > "flash1: < ms0: install configfile" like the readme says and started the installation, but now it's been stuck for 20 minutes. Anyone know what's wrong? I don't dare touching my PSP in case I brick it. I have 2.71SE-C. If I brick it, I hope it's only partially so I can restore.
howw do i get it to work on 2.71 seb or do i have to return to 1.5....yo ppl i meat u @ ftb2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!thx dax and alex...n whomever else helped make this possible... ive been waitin fo this a loong time! ceeeen
Ok I got it insatalled but when I turn my PSP on and Launch Devhook 0.50 i select the game then it turns my PSP off. Whats gojing on can someone help me? Thanks :)
i'm like so rooting for you to 1st next time! LMAOLOLROFLOPWNAGE!
This does work. Just follow the instructions in the fwinstall.txt exactly. I'm currently running GTAVCS off the xmb on FW 2.82 :) Only question is... and im surprised no ones asked this yet... is there anyway to get 333mhz working? Because the game seems a little laggy running at 222 :P
since when is this a beta?
Thank U so Much!!! u are my god
why do have to ruin it for everyone? can;t you just be happy. at least theres progress. you think it's a "pointless update"? ha, ha, ha. remind me to laugh when i pwn ur gehy momma arsz.
we have followed them and get feck all what did u doo are r u fecking us about
Does this work or not??? and if it does, does any1 have a quick installer?
Yeah got it to work just follow the RE and you'll be fine i recommend going to psp-hacks.com they have everything u need... also you have to remember to copy the audio.prx from 2.71 to 2.8x dh folder
ALl you need cop and paste idiot proof http://rapidshare.com/files/5379974/DevHook_AIO_Package.rar
best post EVAR
I'm confused with the instructions. Anyone want to explain properly?
Ok I downloaded an exe of Devhook 0.50 from this link http://rapidshare.com/files/5372905/Devhook.50.exe. I installed it on my 2 GIG PSP Mem Stick Pro Duo. The exe did all the instilation without my manually installing it. After Intall was finished I ran Devhook 0.50 and I selected the game. But Here's the interesting part. Unlike 0.46 when I select the ISO image from file emulation tab, the UMD mode doesn't say its using a UMD disc for the ISO Image. And it seems to be running FW from the Flash. How do I need to reconfig this manually to get it working due to the Devhook 0.50.exe Error to get a running instillation?
if you need help please ask me...
i don think firmware 3.00 can be emulated becuase wat if u wanted 2 use the ps1 emulator u would have 2 run the iso off the emulator and run devhook. if it was possible it might take a long time to load then.
I did what you said and got nothing it still the same just turns black and turns off, what is going on?
how did u get it to work on se-c, i used the installer
IF YOU NEED HELP PLEASE ASK AWAY..
http://www.sendspace.com/file/5ink1n yep, thats hybrid firmware for devhook all set up for you! You get visualizers, camera support, it runs games and all that. Wifi doesnt work though since it runs the 2.71 kernel and the 3.0 vsh, but ti doesnt have to replace your current devhook firmware, so its just great!! =D
I have tryed all the suggestions and nothing hwat is going on, is there a reason for the black screen what other settings can there be, whats with the restart and repare can someone just please tell me this?
can someone please help me i have 2.8 firmware and dont know how to use devhook to play downloaded games. so please someone tell me something on my email at naqash_123@hotmail.com
read the article it specifically mentions there is a 3.01 folder but it only works up to 2.82
http://rapidshare.com/files/5379974/DevHook_AIO_Package.rar All you need idot proof
boosters finally back. 2.82 baby now i can run all me games including gta vcs cant wait for 3.00
There is no place for God here.
can someone make a vid of this process cos this still is not working, and to all u *****s saying just copy and paste, its is bollox. If it worked we would not be asking for help now would be so stop calling us idiots.
gods file is sh*t
try using the Hybrid Devhook for the last DevHook....just copy it into the 2.71 folder in "DH"
im in a good mood right now after just pirating GTAVCS, so im gonna write a tutorial for all u noobs out there. If your not a complete moron, u should be able to get devhook running now. 0. go to dl.qj.net and download these files: 2.71 firmware update 2.82 firmware update pbp unpacker devhook 5.0 (duh) psar dumper with signature check
YOU DONE IT AGAIN!!! YOU BEAT SONY!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT JOB!!! BEST PSP HOMEBREW/HACKER EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and apparently this gay comment system cut it off... o well i dont feel like writing it again :P
k...will this brick my PSP?....i don't think it will but w/e....also....wat DevHook do u need 2 run this?
i would appreciate it if you would stfu and wait
Ok I did the following after DH 0.50 was on my PSP: 1. Copy everything in the MS_ROOT folder to ms0:/. 2. Run DevHook 0.5 Beta. 3. Select FLASH ROM. 4. Select flash1: < ms0: install configfile. 5. Read the disclaimer, and if you accept the disclaimer, hold circle for 1 second 6. DO NOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL IT FINISHES! 7. Press circle once it is completely finished with it's process. 8. Start Firmware 2.82, customize it however you want. 9. Reboot your PSP and then you are all set! BUT it failed again. So I got rid of all the files and did another fresh installation. Maybe I will have my AC Adapter plugged into my PSP this time. Hopefully it will work this time. Problem is the cord is over my girlfriends and my computer is here at my apartment. I will reply tomorrow to let you guys know how it turned out. Goodnight!!!
the *****ing readme is there for a reason
Here is the package for anyone having trouble: http://rapidshare.com/files/5379974/DevHook_AIO_Package.rar
BOOSTER UR DA WICKEST PERSON ALIVE YOOO!!! UR BAD YO GOODJOB MAN!!! WAT WAT!! UR SICKKK GUY!!! UR A BADMAN YO!! PEACE!!

READ THE *****ING FWINSTALL.TXT THAT COMES WITH IT
2nd post is ghey 2
BALLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After loading and running a couple of 2.8+ games such as VCS, I have an outrageously small list of bugs. Note: DevHook was tested on a 1.5 PSP with a 2.82 firmware setup. *CPU Mode malfunctioned. Setting anything other than default crashes the system when pressing "START" or while changing speed at XMB DevHook Menu. *Games such as GTA: VCS no longer require the SFO Fix to 2.00. Applying the fix crashes the system after bypassing the PSP logo. *The title of the app says DEVHOOK0.50 BETA. I don't know if this is a beta, as it says Sample Launcher on the ad image, but on the readme ENG replaces BETA... hmm... And thats about it. If any other bugs post them here and hopefully Booster than fix these small kinks.
put it in the DH folder on the root of your memory stick

.
godamn. I mean, I was happy too, but I didnt cry about it. butch up!
i jst uploaded this and ftb2 works online you can paly online from sec to when u go online for the first time use dev .50 then u can paly from sec because u have the file downloaded. http://www.sendspace.com/file/anb92p
Devhooked 2.82 boots with 2.71 SE-C. Just follow the EXACT directions given in the README.txt given with the download and IT WILL BOOT UP! 1) First decrypt firmware 2.71 DATA.PSAR with PSAR dumper by pressing square. 2) Copy the audio.prx from F0/kd/audio.prx and save it somewhere safe. 3) Delete the F0 folder that was generated. 4) Decrypt firmware 2.82 DATA.PSAR with cross (X). I don't think you can use another person's dump because of the fact that the signature check is unique to each psp's hardware (I'm not sure). 5) Transfer the F0 folder to dh/282/ in your PSP memorystick. 6) Boot devhook and first remove any Flash1 files using the Flash ROM option. 7) Using the Flash ROM option again, RE-FLASH the new Flash1 config files that come with the devhook download. 8) Make sure firmware 2.82 is chosen and without changing any other settings, START!!!
I have 2.8 firmware what exactly will this devhook let me do. will it let me load iso's that require 2.8fw and about. exactly what will let me do. PLEASE HELP
I think not. 3.x would be close though.

if u try this dev hook and it does not work u cannot use the old dev hook as the same thing happens, BOOSTER IS A *****
CONGRATS! YOU DID IT AGAIN!!!! ALL PRAISE BOOSTER!!!!!!!! Ppl please stop spamming for the FW 2.8x dumps. thank you.
3.x beware, Booster is out !
Just wait for someone to put a zip folder on one of the torrent sites or something.
I got these directions from a .5 dev hook package. Are these writing flash or something. Can you just turn ur psp off and return to 1.5? [quote]1. Copy everything in the MS_ROOT folder to ms0:/. 2.

glad ur havin fun w/ ur official emu...the one that makes u pay for games that you may have already payed for...me...ill be playing ALL of my ps1 games on my psp very, very soon...
followed directions to a tee and it freezes and doesnt even start. any suggestions? ~Hoshi~
lol i know, im just *****in with him
you need a *****ing firmware dump you idiot
If your struggling to get it working properly, why don`t you just download the "idiot proof" package. Apparently, it takes all the hassle out of setting it up, i`m downloading it right now. I`ll let you guys know how i get on.
does this work on just regular 1.5 version not the sec or anything else...cuz i cant get it to work with my 1.5..help
ok thanks man let us know. Cheers
nothing...thats what it will help you, a 2.80 psp owner, do...nothing...wait for the downgrader pal
it does work on sec just remember to copy the audio.prx from 2.71 into 2.82 kd folder
where do u get that..could u post the link
well the read me is there but u need to follow the fwinstaller.txt cuz the actual readme is f***** up
Ok look at the directions I posted above. I am just scared is this making my psp 2.82. Where it says restart ur psp and ur set what does it do?
how close is someone to developing a downgrader for 2.8
THANK YOU BOOSTER, well love you in our own ways... some ppl very creapy ways but we all still love you even $ony.... my be not $ony lol
just realised it fecks up ya dev hook 0.46 so there is no going bk if it does not work. Booster has screwed us over, its still a beta. Booster you *****er. Why doin't you fix this are you working for Sony to do these things to us you *****
since i have a ta082 and use the 2.71 porter and hend, would this work if i emulated to 1.5 with the porter, then used devhook .50?
I know. Im so happy that this doesnt work with 2.80. 2.80 people are stupid
Does the idiot proof pack work or does it f ur psp?
du du how is what you posted in any help me in finding the answer to my question. I have a psp with 2.8 firmware and I was wondering how close is someone in developing a 2.8 downgrader THANKYOU
I'm so glad! Since there is a 3.01 folder, it should be implemented in the next release. That means it IS possible!
Apparently, in the AIO package, you need to relocate the launcher from the game folder to game150. That should solve the not starting up problem for us 2.71 se-c users, but i still can't get past the crash when starting the 2.82 firmware. Hopefully we can get this solved.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Well, i`m tryin to figure out how to set it up, if this is idioit proof, then yep.. i`m an idiot, coz it`s still very confusing. I wish someone would do an ulitimate installer for this, as they did for devhook 0.46. I`m sure i ain`t the only one who finds this very confusing. I`m no computer nerd, so it might as well all be in japenese lol Surely someone can talk us though it, just a regular bloke like myself :o)
ok i think it is time to help the people witht the brain cuz this SH*t is getin me mad ok i got the 2.82 folder and theng got the 2.71 audio.prx then i put it in the 2.81 f0 folder and then i go to devhook start the flash thing and then load devhook and it stays in the black screen f**k that if u think i am a noob cuz i least i no how to dump the flash
yea same prob, i feel ya
its is compatible with firmware 1.50 only
has any one actually got this to WORK?????
ThankX a lot BOOSTER good,Great to have you back...
Has anyone here who`s not a whizz kid actually managed to figure how to get this working?! If so, for the love of god, please share it with us all, coz this is slowly driving me mad!
i got it to work to all the noobs try everything 1st then ask question like it di but i dont need help i got it to work hit me up on Aim to find out how to get it to work drpimp2234
Ok so I downloaded the Idiot Proof thing, and followed instructions. It try to do the thing where you go into the Flash Rom thing and click the install config files. It basically just gets stuck after a bit. Like just stays at one thing. Anyone know whats going on?
your just sayin that cuz u got no friends and u want ppl to talk to u hahaha... noob

But some of you lot seriously need to get lifes, or even girlfriends for that matter. But anyways, i`ll keep checking on here until someone can explain in plain english how to set it up. Good luck guys :o)
for some reason my umd or iso of gta vcs will not load it will just hang in the gameboot but it dont freeze why does this happen
Alright, get this straight. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING WITH THESE FILES (INSTALLING, RUNNING, ECT.) YOU SHOULD NOT BE TRYING TO USE THEM AT ALL! If you are not COMPLETELY sure of how to install or use DevHook, you should be updating to 3.01 as soon as possible, because you obviously don't belong on the homebrew scene. If something confuses you, either A. Wait for a Noob-proof Auto Installer Or B. Leave the scene. Now. You got a pretty good chance of bricking your PSP, and then blaming the devs for your idiocracy.
I guess you have no interest of playing socom ftb2 ONLINE!!!!! but I can see your point if you sit around all day only watching gay porn on your psp. So for you it would be pointless.
I dumped a 2.82 dump, but it does not work with this new devhook. :/ I used psardumper and everything, got the files, organized them like my 2.71 files are organized, and it still doesn't work. :[ Anyone have any suggestions or something?
This thing doesn't work completely off of the memory stick now? You HAVE to flash some of it to the chip?
can someone help me translate into Eng pls. Step by Step. I'm have problem running Devhook v5.00 FW 2.8x Emulation.
Some good points chaoszero. I regulary use devhook 0.46, and a snes umulator, and just because i don`t know how to set up this new devhook, doesn`t mean that people should leave the homebrew scene. But your right about one thing though, you don`t wanna be tinkering around too much if you don`t know what your doing, as it could brick the psp. Another thing, what is it with some people on here with bad attitudes? I`m thinking it could be puberty starting maybe? Anyways, i think i`m gonna wait a bit longer till I install the nes devhook.
I CANT GET IT TO FKKING WORK ... INSTRUCTIONS ARE MAKING ME argry! IM in ANGRY MODE
*new devhook
I did but i cant read half of it cause i dont have the language pack or something. It isnt like you have to be a *****ing ***** jsut cause i asked for help. ive gotten the otherones to work but htis one is different. i mean like stfu if you dont know
Here's an automated installer: http://rapidshare.com/files/5392586/DevHook_200.5_20AIO_20Installer_20v1.2_20By_20Loaded.exe Enjoy :).
i love booster!!!! i now have full confidence that 3.0 will be emulated
cheers loaded, but can you post the link again, it don`t work mate
says file not found.
yeaaaa it works idiots im playing right now when installed and ready u click flash rom then click install then hold o then click start i got it to work
yeah, same thing here
HAS ANYONE GOT THIS TO WORK?? cause not one post has confirmed that it does work and i dont think that is the real chaoszero i bet the real chaoszero is working on a full installer right now
u got to add the period in the link with it
mine frezzes when i go to the music icon otherwise great good job booster
If there is an automated installer out there, could someone please post the link to download it please. Cheers
If there is an automated installer out there, could someone please post the link to download it please. Cheers
adding the period didnt help at all
BOOSTER IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the REAL "Chaos Zero", hense the period and extra "0" in my screen name. I've just been using that name for years
Even the "idiot proof" package contain the instructions to flash.
Try this: http://rapidshare.com/files/5392586/DevHook_200.5_20AIO_20Installer_20v1.2_20By_20Loaded.exe.html It worked for me. What's the error on your end?
lol, puberty. Anyways, what I'm trying to get people to understand that the scene is not for people who don't know how to do (sometimes very complex) computer/App stuff. If you wanna survive here (and not get horribly flamed and/or end up with a bricked PSP) you gotta be able to teach yourself how to run these apps and mae them work, or upgrade and use your PSP the way Sony wants you to. Homebrew is awesome (loving the se firmwares, emulators and PiPMStreamer) but if you can't figure it out, be safe and upgrade, otherise you'll probly end up with a $200 paperweight.
http://rapidshare.com/files/5392586/DevHook_200.5_20AIO_20Installer_20v1.2_20By_20Loaded.exe.html Enjoy!
Took awhile, but as long as you replace the audio.prx, it will work fine. I tried using the Ridge Racer 2 demo for 2.81 and it went perfectly. E-Mail me Elysiumdream666@gmail.com if you need help installing this.
Loaded: Its giving a "File Not Found" error.
btw, the real Chaos Zero accidentally bricked his psp a week or two ago while playing with the Hybrid files for the last DevHook. You can help him out by donating on his homepage though.
Yeah, your absolutely right mate. Very wise words you speak
iV`E JUST DOWNLOADED THE AUTOMATRED INSTALLER, CAN ANYONE VERYIFY THIS WORKS, BEFORE I ATTEMPT TO GIVE IT A BASH. DON`T REALLY WANNA BRICK MY PSP OR ANYTHING
Hey, which firware are you running, 1.5 or 2.71 SE?
How is this emulation if it's flashing the rom in the PSP? also has anyone been able to get it back to 1.50 without a hitch?
i did everthing in the read me and 2.82 actually starts but then it gets to a blue screen of death and asks to hit O. i did so but it loops again and asks to press O. what am i doing wrong?
Doesn't flash the whole rom, just some user settings. You CAN get back to 1.50 completely fine.
ok here i will help ok FW2.82(2.80) 1.copy "MS_ROOT/*" of devhook to "ms0:/" 2.copy unpacked FW2.71updater file to "ms0:/DATA.PSAR" delete "ms0:/F0" folder. unpacked FW2.82 updater file to "ms0:/DATA.PSAR" "PSAR Dumer V2B(2.80 or 3.00)" and press cross button "ms0:/F0/*.*" to "ms0:/dh/282/F0/*.*" "DEVHOOK0.50 ENG launcher" from XMB. Flash the file u told me to falsh here u no the deal and press circle long. 12.select "FIRMWARE" > "FW2.82" 13.select "START" then reboot PSP.
I am using FW 1.5
*firmware
Add .exe to the end of Loaded's Auto-installer links to make them work. Cheers!
I need help...What I did was use the Auto-Installer, and then it seemed to work fine. I clicked the flash rom thing, and it told me that I was missing a folder, but I don't get why that would be since I used the auto-installer. Helper, please help.
It's loaded.exe, not loaded. at the end of the url!!!!!!
3rd poster is ghey
Ok, i`ve used the auto installer and followed all the instructions. Where does the iso`s go? i can see a folder for them?
Loaded, I tryed you Install, and it doesnt work, I followed the READMEFIRST.txt, and even after setting the flash stuff up, I still get stuck on the black screen after pressing START in devhook.
Next person to ask if it emulates 3.01 gets kicked in the teeth.
that is what keep happening to me, Booster better fix this cos we can't go bk to .46 no more the *****
I know this may be out of topic...... My SOCOM 2 savefile becomes corrupted when I play using dh to emulate 2.82!!!!! :( Was playing with 2.71 SEC DH 0.46 2.xx -> 2.00 option. Any cure for this.... It'll be a waste if I have to play all the campaign missions AGAIN!!!!!! :(
UNINSTALL DEVHOOK FROM FLASH
DEVHOOK 50 ??? YO THIS IS SOME BULL***** I AINT A NEWB BUT I CANT GET THIS ***** TO WORK WTF
I have installed loaded`s auto installer and I`m not convinved it was the smart thing to do, can i revert back to devhook 0.46 and if so how?
Where are you putting your iso`s?
THANKS BOOSTER
Go find another game save with the right version and use that
yeh i did everything that the installer said to do and now i have FW2.82 :D
WHICH INSTALLER
I have wasted 2 hours trying to get this working... This is full of flaws....
4 some reason my 2.82 will not get pasted the gameboot screen but it does not freeze
i used the automated install. followed the directions to the EXACTLY. ended up with a black screen. what gives?
Can we go back to using devhook 0.46 if i`ve already installed 0.50? If so how do we do it?
he has bricked my psp with his virus loader! DO NOT USE THIS GUYS! BRICKS YOUR PSP! MY PSP IS *****ED THANKS TO THAT IDIOT
Bricked? Are you serious? I`ve already installed this, but so far it doesn`t seemed to have bricked mine????
Is it working on yours?
I`m gonna give this up now i think. Can someone please tell me, is it possible to remove everything to do with this devhook 0.50, and start from scratch using 0.46?
I have installed it but when i go to start, it just freezes for a minute then a black screen, then my psp turns itself off! I`m beginning to lose patience with this.
Devhook just started and then shut down
my iso is in the ms0:/iso folder. BTW I was and still using cso instead of iso. Make any diff on the save file? so..... no other way except to play again or find the right save file? :)
I used Loaded's package thing on my PSp, nothing happened 0o -> maybe i did something wrong to mess up the bricking of my psp Lol
BTW does this work for the DH 0.5?
When has BOOSTER ever let you guys down? This Devhook DOES work as long as you follow the directions. Yes they are kinda hard to read. Just get the PSARDumper V2b and dump both the 2.71 (for the audio.prx) and 2.82. Replace the audio.prx in the ms0:/dh/282/kd file with the one you got from the 2.71 eboot. Open up Devhook .50 on your psp, go under Flashrom, make sure that devhook is not installed on your flash, then hit Circle on
that mean 3.0 emu is on the way!!!! psx emulation!!! :) right now 2.81 emulation not of great use when there's hybrid 2.71/2.8 firmware for devhook 0.46 but woot!!! that's great great news!!!
So have you got it to work properly then?
*****ing liar i used his also and nothing happened
after you make sure that devhook is not already installed on your psp, hit circle on
is there an automatic hen d booter yet?? also if i remove my old .46 devhook and put this updated devhook on my ta-082 running 2.71 hen d. will it boot up using the devhook 4X booter for 2.71???
I think i`m gonna go back to devhook 0.46 for now, until someone can come up with an ultimate installer like for 0.46. I`m no expert on this, so i recomend anyone regular guys out there who don`t fully know what there doin, to stick to 0.46. Peace
I LOVE YOU!!! And I really missed you! Thanks for coming back. Don't ever leave :D. You are Number 1!
THE UPLOADER ALREADY DELETED IT
guys please can any one of you like to give me the step by step to instal the devhook on my psp i downloaded it but the read me file doesnt show the words correctly i cant understand anything at all i downloaded the psardumpermod and the scr but i have clue at all what to do with them cuz the read me file with them too aint showing the right words .. i appreciate that in advance reply soon
Well i deleted every other line from the txt file, which helped me read it. Thanx to all who re-posted it this way. I followed the instructions, got it to work, but then found that once I shut down the PSP I could no longer start Devhook. Thanx again to whoever said to move the two folders into the Game150 folder. Now it seems to work great except... When I try to launch RSS feeds the browser opens and then shuts down the system. The regular browser seems to work fine but those Fricken RSS feeds are a no go...ANYONE KNOW WHY?
here's how i got it to run 1. copy contents of DH0500000/MS_ROOT/ to ms0:/ 2. copy 2.71 data.psr on the root of memstick (ms0:/) 3. run psardumper press SQUARE 4. move ms0;/f0/kd/audio.prx to ms0:/audio.prx 5. delete ms0:/f0 6. copy 2.82 data.psr on the root of memstick (ms0:/) 7. move ms0:/f0 to ms0:/dh/282/f0 8. ms0:/audio.prx to ms0:/dh/282/f0/kd/audio.prx (overwrite existing file) 9. copy flash1:/ to ms0:/dh/282/f1 (i used fileassistant for this) 10. run devhook0.5 11. select "FLASH ROM" > "flash1: < ms0: install configfile" and press circle for 1 sec. 12. repeat step 11 (writing the config to flash 1 seems to be required) 13. uses these settings - firmware+2.82 - cpu clock+default - boot mode+xmb menu 14. select iso or umd 15. start devhook
Hey other then the RSS problem I got this thing nailed, anyone who needs help (I know thats a lotta peeps) feel free to email me and I'll try to help. For the record, I used the first release (Manual Install) Vfemmeslvr@yahoo.com
you need to decrypt the 2.82 data.psr after step 6
You're welcome Wakko.
i can help you but. i can't seem to make a game run :(
when decrypting 2.82 data.psr press CROSS
Well whats the trick Mr (or mrs.) Smarty Pants?
I think I'll skip this release until I can use it fully from the memory stick and don't have to flash anything. Otherwise, good work Booster.
to your rss i can't/ but i'mma help people make them see 2.82 on there psp with out bricking
Stop being a lazy smelly porchop with hairy dirty portuguese soccer legs. Just read the txt.file, and follow instructions. Okay.
I really appreciate all you hard work. Thanks for the early christmas present and have a great holiday. You the man.
Make sure you're hitting X when decrypting 2.82 and not Square. I was hitting Square on both and getting the black screen problem. After actually doing it right, boots fine.
It isnt that hard all you need is PSP Brew to extract the Data.PSAR and just find psar dumer somewhere out there and your on your way to some Devhook goodness....dont be lazy just make your own dump its easy any everyone is doing it :) BTW Booster ROX!!!!!
I started with a fresh formatted stick (512 mb), then got hold of the 2.71 and 2.82 data.psar files. put the devhook program on ur stick, then copy the 2.71 data.psar into the root o' ur stick. open psardumpmodwithsigcheck and use it (with the SQUARE button) to dump the data file into an F0 folder. the only reason for this is to get the Audio.prx file it creates inside of the (KD I think) folder. Copy this to your desktop for now, then delete the F0 folder in ur mem stick root. Repeat this process but use the 2.82 data.psar file this time and PRESS THE X BUTTON instead of the Square. This will make another F0 folder. Put the Audio.prx file (on ur desktop if u listened earlier) into the same folder in the 2.82 dump as where u got it from in the 2.71 dump. This should replace one of the same name. You know, the folder containing like, 50 or 60 files? inside of f0? OK. Now copy everything from the f0 folder inside your mem root into the ms:\dh\kd\f0 directory. delete the old f0 folder when your done. Now, if you've been keeping up, you should be ready to launch DH from your XMB. the only setting to messs with or even click on is the Flash Rom option. Just pick the top choice with circle and a new screen will pop up. It says to hold down circle for 1 second to continue. So guess what? DO IT! After all of the files are done just hit X to return to the main Devhook screen. Press circle on the START (Top choice) and it will start. after it resets ur PSP , ur almost done. now just move the two files for devhook out of your GAME folder and put them into your GAME150 folder (If you are running 2.71SE-C) This should do the trick, as it's pretty much DH as usual from then on. MAJOR THANX GO OUT TO BOOSTER, DARK ALEX, the Professor and Maryanne, Here on Gilligan's Isle!
CANT GET THAT TO WORK EITHER WHAT ARE THE SETTINGS SUPPOSED TO BE CAN SOMEONE WHO HAS A WORKING VERSION POST THE DEVHOOK SETTINGS THANKS
is changing cpu speed working for anyone? it always freezes when i try change it...
No I can't get that OR the RSS feeds to work.
It's awfully quiet in here all of the sudden...Are people actually trying it the way I said instead of whining about the odd characters in the TXT file.... :) Just kidding... This frustrated the hell outta me ( especially since i could get it to work exactly once without moving the dh folders but then when i restarted it wouldnt work. That was annoying!)
I did exactly the same blue
GREAT TO SEE YA BAck BACK BOOSTER!!! LOOKING FORWARD TO 3-Oh EMULATION :D
as topic but i mean . HOW. i got it to 2.82 but it won't let me play the game
tons of problem tryin to get it to work...and once i did(firmware 1.5) i couldnt get the web browser (i actually got a red error screen saying that a "serious" error had occured...changing many of the default settings causes my psp to crash.....i dont kno...but i think if you havnt tried it...dont bother and just wait for the next release...i hope that one will be more stable
Anyone want the ultimate installer for this new devhook, AIM me "Seasonal Ocean"
I laugh at all theese silly kids who have upgraded from 1.5 to 2.8 cause they thought that the homebrew community is dying. And look whos laughing now.
I think you may want to try flashing the 2.0 files first, I remember that from an earlier release. ...
When using .50 luxor and mind quiz save files both say they're corrupted when I try to load them.. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
It's common knowledge that patience is a virtue. I'll be releasing the 3.01 updated files for Devhook tommorrow, mainly because I'm too tired tonight. To all those who fall into Sony's tricks, Bummer.
it works just fine i got 2.82 running
Hey, is it just me or every time when I try to complete step 4 from chomatz's post it's not there. The only thing that is in F0:/kd is a folder called "Resource"... no Audio.prx to be found.
it works im on 2.71 se-c and got it working...it did take me awhile to figure it out but it does work.
*Waits for FULL version to come out*
So far, from everything I've read. The only advantage of this over the current hybrid devhook, is some people are claiming that Socom2 works online. Other than that, there's no difference. The 2 games that don't work on hybrid, still don't work on this, and to top it off, you can't overclock, or use RSS, or Web Browser, and some people are even having problems with viewing video files under this. Great development to be sure, but I think I'll wait until a few of the bugs are ironed out since I don't even own socom2 Glad to see that booster is back at it.
Hi, Found this article to install this devhook. Follow the steps, and It works. http://dragonboy2006.blogspot.com/2006/11/how-to-install-devhook-05-beta.html have fun :)

DAMN!! i have 2.8 and i thought this was to use devhook on it :'(
Booster, YOU´RE the man that make my year!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I have to thank the Noobz team that made the awesome eloader "Kriek" and ofcourse all the homebrew guys out there that are so kind and putting all their effort and time for these freebies that you are giving out! YOU ROCK MY SOCKS OFF :D
No you move the flash 0 folder into where there already is one within the DH folder...

hola xD
does it work on ta082 2.71 hen-d psps? If so how do I go about installing? Can i just get a dump from the 2.80 firmware and put it in the devhook folder? Or do I have to update my psp to 2.8 first? Then run Hen-D and emulate 1.5?
does any1 have a problem when going to the main menu by pressing home when playing a game? ... mine always freezes at the please wait msg... i did everything according to READ MEs please help
Derypting the files right now, will try to start devhook soon. I'm still a bit comfused about the audio.prx. but i guess i will be fine.
actually this devhook works on my 1.5 but after not more then 5mins my psp hangs...haiz....can any1 help me?
don't try it yet. the 2.71 4X devook launcher doesn't work with this new version. and don''t upgrade your going to be homebrewless.
just imagine how good this would be if it worked... if only booster could write readmes in english...
It is the same thing in two languages!
after reading all this my head is still spinning. I'm just trying to download some damn music to my 10 year old's psp. Can anyone help, I've been told that I need to direclty download it to the memory card and others tell me I need to connect the usb connection. It doesn't work, help!
I dont know if this has been answered yet... c'mon 1000+ jumps already!!! Can u just use the audio.prx from the 2.71 dump used form the previous devhook and put it on the 28x/f0? Found it on 271/flash0/kd...
connect your psp to your PC, go to usb connection under "settings" menu.. hit X. then on your pc there will be a new drive listed.. this is your PSP's memory stick.. double-click on it, then go to the folder "PSP" you put the mp3 files into the MUSIC folder.. done.
I follow the directions but when i unpack the 2.71 firmware with psar dumper I get everything just fine except there is no audio.prx file in the KD folder. Anyone got any idea whatmi doing wrong tried it many times.
http://www.psp-hacks.com/forums/about31107.html&p=1 installer makes it easy , hope it helps
I wish they could explain the instructions more easier. I have a 2.81 psp FW and I downloaded this Devhook. But when it says copy to ms:0, wtf duz that mean? And whats the dumper thing? All i wanna kno is what this Devhook duz for my psp 2.81 and how to get it on the psp.
did you download 2.81 to dump? or is that the firmware on your psp? If thats what you have on your psp then you can't use devhook, don't try or you might brick your psp. this is only for people who have 1.5 or 2.71se-c
Will this work on a hitachi 47D drive or is it for the toshiba samsung only? Can I use a VIA card to flash this?
what??? your talking about 360 dvd drives. this is for the psp
HA HA SONY JUST GOT HIT FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE
Thanks, that really cleared things up. Well, can;t wait till they release a 2.81 downgrader
1. copy contents of DH0500000/MS_ROOT/ to ms0:/ 2. download FW2.71 update and decrypt it using PBP unpacker 3. copy 2.71 data.psr on the root of memstick (ms0:/) 4. run PSAR Dumer V2B(2.80 or 3.00) press SQUARE 5. move ms0;/f0/kd/audio.prx to ms0:/audio.prx 6. delete ms0:/f0 7. again download FW2.82 and decrypt it using PBP unpacker. 8. copy 2.82 data.psr on the root of memstick (ms0:/) 9. again run "PSAR Dumer V2B(2.80 or 3.00)" and press cross button. 10. move ms0:/f0 to ms0:/dh/282/f0 11. ms0:/audio.prx to ms0:/dh/282/f0/kd/audio.prx (overwrite existing file) 10. run devhook0.5 11. if devhook files are installed to flash1 then uninstall it first. 12. select "FLASH ROM" > "flash1: < ms0: install configfile" and press circle long. 13. select "FIRMWARE" > "FW2.82" 14. then "start"
First of all thank you Booster. Ok i got it working just fine, but the psp seems to freeze in a few instances like while pressing reboot without devhook and while i toggle cpu clock speeds with the menu. Browser isnt working for me either. Once again thanks to those involved in this release, just thought some feedback would be good for the developers. Games all have worked fine including Socom 2.
Everyone is loving this, and fair play, but it's abit late when 3.01 is out now, I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but we needed this when 2.8X games started coming out. Thanks for the update, but I'll come back when 3.01 is supported.
this is easier cuz it skips some steps. also i provided links :) from here @ QJ's download site: 1. Download PSAR Dumper for firmware 3.0 link: http://dl.qj.net/3.00-3.01-Dumper-and-Decrypter-Hacks-Exploits-PSP/pg/12/fid/11404/catid/114 2. Download Firmware 2.82 update and 2.71 update (2.71 is on page 2 of download screen) link to firmware selection page: http://dl.qj.net/PSP-Firmwares/catid/163 3. Download "PBP unpacker" to extract DATA.psar from both updates. link: http://dl.qj.net/PBP-Unpacker-v0.94-PSP-Tools-Utilities-(on-PC)/pg/12/fid/8808/catid/192 ------------------ 4. install devhook to your PSP. You should now have ms0:/dh/ folder 5. Install "PSAR dumper" program to your psp. 6. Copy the 2.82 data.psar to your ROOT FOLDER of PSP. (aka ms0:/) 7. Run PSAR dumper. PRESS "CROSS(X)" to extract the files to "ms0:/f0" 8. copy this new folder to dh/282/ . yes overwrite. 9. copy 2.71 DATA.psar to root folder 10. run "PSAR dumper" again, but this time press "SQUARE" (important!!) 11. copy the decrypted ms0:/f0/kd/audio.prx to ms0:/dh/282/f0/kd/ it is ok to delete ms0:/f0/ folder and files now. 12. copy a previous firmwares flash1 settings folder to your 282/f1 folder if you dont have one laying around try fileassistant 13.start devhook 14.select "flashrom" and then the first setting (flash1: < ms0: install configfile) to flash your flash1 directory to your psp's internal flash1 15. #14 will only create directorys. repeat 14 to copy the files. 16. start devhook.
thanks Jack. Guess I'll wait and see if Hen-D is supported or go plonk another 375 singapore dollars on a 1.5 psp so I don't have to deal with this emulation stuff anymore.
Ooops sorry thought I was on xbox scene, Doh
UP U BASTAR*! NEVER EVEN THINK OF SAYING THAT AGAIN!
don't waste your money on another psp. i have a ta-082 2.71 white psp with hen-d. they will make a devhook launcher for us like they did last time. in the mean time just keep using .46 you can still play games past 2.71.
Thank you very much for your hard work. we hope you have more success on your next release. we are looking forward to the FW 3.0x release. thank again and more power.
No, first posters post the "FIRST POST!!!" s-h-i-t because its hard to get first post as everyone else is trying to jump on an article that has just been posted.
Vice City plays better as an ISO file, when I converted to CSO it got a little slower. If you're running a CSO i'd suggest cenverting it back, if it's an ISO I cant help, sorry.
How do I install this on my 3.00 PSP? When I try to run this it says currupt data. HELP
read people read. this is only for 1.5 and 2.71se-c psps your going to ***** up your psp. stop trying to run this.
Why would you want to emulate 2.8 when you have 3.0? Idiot
it's not *****ed up, it's just in japanese
here it is.. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=G3L0OPW4 dh 280 w/ fixed audio prx all you needa do is use xflash to get your f1 files. also it helps to format the memory stick, as some files may be corrupted and cant be overwritten.. worked for me after i did this.. yer welcome. =]
Does this mean you can now play socom 2 online
lazy people sigh
that sucks, only 1.50 not 2.71 SE or HEN
The Man BOOSTER .... is a Genius... Now waiting for the BIG 3.0 and 3.01 Firmware :D i know he can do it ;)
MANY THANX TO BOOSTER!!! I THINK SONY CAN BE HAPPY,BECAUSE PEOPLE WHO HAS 1.50 CAN BUY GAMES ON 2.81. LIKE ME IM GONNA BUY SOCOM2 ((((((:
lol noob
Devhook 0.50 runs just fine on my 2.71 se-c .... put it in your GAME150 folder...
Cheers matey! I had problems (which I found to be down to my stupidity). I have version 1000 jap psp and thought I should be using jap 2.82 update, lol. Quick switch back to US version and I'm happily pretending I'm on 2.82...
why u have to flash ur rom for if you are only emulating?
Has anyone managed to play socom 2 online with this yet?
why flash the rom tho if you are emulating? its this bit that worries me
When i get online with Socom 2 i still asks for the update. I know this is a beta version but it keeps god damn crashing, if booster knew it was like this then when didn't he wait a bit longer while it was stable.
dont let the flamers get to you =)
please someone answer me! ive asked twice now. WHy do you have to flash ur rom if you are only emulating? also is this safe and can it be changed back incase we need it changed for future devhooks ? soem report it works without flashing...woudl this make devhook work same was as if you had flashed it?
354th POST!
http://www.psp-haxors.com/wp-content/uploads/DevHook/Ultimate_Installer_v1.5.exe enjoy the installer
cool, hope dark alex or someone ports this to 2.71 hen d for us t-082 users
I hope someone ports this to 2.71 hen d for us POOR TA-082 users. I need to buy C++ for Dummies.
Just downloaded the full pack with 2.82 found elsewhere, install dh onto my root and put the game files in game150. Copied the audio.prx from 2.71 kd folder (from my previous devook). Set to 2.82 fw and launch XMB but I just get a black screen. I'm running 2.71 SE B3 with noumd switch on, anyone got it running on b3 or should I upgrade to C / Downgrade to 1.50 Cheers for any help
the only bad thing about its the savedate it get curruted on 2.82 while loading
Jack : Well actually I only own gta lcs ver 2.0 but that was for eloader only i haven't played the game at all. What I really want to play is crisis core. Which at the moment is still not out and the demo will only be out at the jump fiesta. It'll probably be 3.01 or by the time it gets out probably 3.6/3.71/3.81/4 who knows. I wonder if the psp developers will continue till then. Either that or Sony comes up with uncrackable firmware. And 1.5 psps are getting rather rare and the stupid tax is going up to 7% in February 2007. Either way I'll have to make my decision before the tax goes up or the 1.5 psps run out. Sigh
what was that? that you want a downgrader for 3.01 already NO1 told u to UPDATE
can i run this on firmware 2.82
like i said in another post..dont know other but my savedate get curruted after loading the game on 2.82 one more thing the clock speed have to be default if not it'll freeze
Alright there are few things that you need to know: A)Devhook 0.50 support firmware 1.50 and 2.71 SE-C (Hen-C/D not tested yet) B)This is just a beta stage of devhook. There are still bugs need to be fixed (e.g: CPU clock over 222/111 MHz not supported yet, Game: Cabelas African Safari.iso not compatible) C)"Home+Start " obviouly not working in case you think you can go back to 1.50 or 2.71SE-C. You need to reboot the PSP (Hold power button). Let begin the tutorial for the noobs(manual install): 1) Extract DH0500000.rar. Copy "dh folder" to the root of PSP (ms0:dh) and "%__SCE__DH_ENG and __SCE__DH_ENG" from the extracted MS_ROOT\PSP\GAME to your PSP (ms:0\PSP\GAME\put here). 2) Download "psardumpmodwithsigcheck.rar" from this same website (do a little searching will ya). Extract it and you will have 3 files: psardumpmod, psardumpmod% and src(not needed). 3)Copy psardumpmod and psardumpmod% to ms0:PSP\GAME\(put here). 4)Now download the official 2.71 Update. Use an application called pbp-unpacker to open the 2.71 EBOOT.pbp. You only need to extract the DATA.PSAR (File size: 14.33 MB). Put the DATA.PSAR you obtained to the root of your PSP (ms0:\DATAPSAR). 4) In your PSP, under XMB(Menu)>Game>Memory Stick, run PSAR Dumper V2B. Press "SQUARE" to decrypt all (Notice: 1 file created in the root of the MS called F0 with many folders inside). Connect your PSP back to computer. All you need is to copy ms0:\F0\kd\audio.prx to ms0:\dh\282\f0\kd\(put here - 18.6 KB to be exact is 19,112 bytes). Then delete the F0 folder in the ms root. 5)Now download the official 2.82 Update. Obtain the DATA.PSAR (File size: 14.74 MB). Put the DATA.PSAR you obtained to the root of your PSP (ms0:\DATAPSAR). 6)Run PSAR Dumper V2B again. Press "Cross" to dump encrypted with sigcheck and decrypted reboot.bin. You will get another F0 folder (but this one contained 2.82 decrypted files). Move all files from ms0:\F0\ to ms0:\dh\282\f0\(put here including Reboot.bin). The Reboot.bin file should be 93.2 KB to be exact is 95,492 bytes. 7)Now run your Devhook0.5.BETA launcher (it says). From the TOP MENU, choose FLASH ROM and run "flash1: remove all devhook files" (do this to remove all devhook files if you had previously installed any devhook files onto PSP onboard memory flash 1). Then in the FLASH ROM menu again, run "flash1: < ms0: install configfile". Press "TRIANGLE" to go back to the TOP MENU. Then choose FIRMWARE and select firmware 2.82(MS or flash+MS). 8) All set, now choose START. The PSP will reboot and Tada ! you are in 2.81 and you will see a weird configuration menu (Press HOME button to exit the config menu and press HOME again to enter back to config menu). Check your system setting to confirm the PSP version. It should say "Version 2.82". Congratulation, you have done it ! Take note: In the Config Menu (Choose by pressing D-Pad left or right) UMD IMAGE - UMD Disc / Emulation CPU CLOCK - Default or 133/66 or 222/111 or 266/133 or 333/166 (don't touch it'll freeze) UMD SFO VER - Default / force 2.00 MENU on BOOT - ON / OFF PRELOAD ADDR - 88E00000 (and others) FIRMWARE - not supported REMOTE PORT - not supported REBOOT without DEVHOOK (not supported yet, don't press it'll freeze) CLOSE MENU (Close the Config Menu or by pressing HOME button) Alright mate I hope you can really follow.
Pls refer page 11 my post if you want to install manually step by step. Good luck !
I've been grabbing other people's PSP's for Thrillville and Scarface, now I can play on my own system! THANKS!!!
i have installed it all and when devhook kicks in the blue screen appears prompting press "o" the psp resets and the screen appears again if i keep pressing it just keep bringing the screen back up help anyone please
you need to go into recovery mode(pressing r trigger on load) and change the kernal to 1.5..... 2.71 kernel wont work with devhook .50, it will just crash on you. First time running 2.82 it is best to reset the psp-settings. Accessing video-settings made it crash with my psp, but after resetting the settings it is just fine :-)
didn't help
hay is there a file for download that has the new firmwares installed i=on the devhook already becaus i dont know how to install that newer firmwares into my devhook :( if any one knowes of an installer that would bee soo great :)
No installation for this yet, it looks like the FW 2.82 during the decription create a unique files for each PSP. So you need to follow the guide either by following axelixc or go to this website, and follow step by step. http://dragonboy2006.blogspot.com/2006/11/how-to-install-devhook-05-beta.html
Can some one help me? Ive done all the right steps as truecrisis said it. I've checked it all 3 times, did it all right. But still 2.82 wont boot up. I've got a EU PSP-1004 with FW 1.50. When try to start 2.82 my screen turns black (normal) but it doenst start reading from the MS as it does with like 2.71. The PSP will idle for a 15 seconds, and shut down. Then i can turn the power back on, and im back at 1.50. Can some one help me? did anyone else experience problems?
it seems that there has been some crictical prx files crashed. that's why u keep getting the blue screen. try reinstall the whole thing using my tutorial up there.
CHAOSZERO DID THE AUTOINSTALLER, GO TO THIS SITE FOR THE THREAD AND DOWNLOADS.
Looks like you upset the lil christian... bless him HAHAHAHA
Note No. 8: Typo error should be ...Tada ! you are in 2.82...sorry. Additional note: Another bug is that you can't exit devhook TOP MENU by choosing "EXIT DEVHOOK". If you press it, it will freeze.
Installed mine using one of the guides here on a 2.71 SEB'' Custom Firmware. Now playing my Yu-Gi-Oh Backup without any problems. It works! Thanks Booster
it has been reported to work 100 percent with no flashing the psp look under turitorials the first thread thank you booster thank you chaoszero

I had problems using 2.71 SE B'' and the new devhook 0.50 easy installer off PSPhacks.com. decided to downgrade back to fw1.50 then used the 0.50 devhook easy installer off psphacks.com It works! runs psp who wants to be a millionaire! large! also runs championship manager 2007! large! doesn't run star wars lethal alliance, crashes after lucas intro, could be a bad iso I guess. Celabas africa safari still wont run! mithed at that one!
Lol, why bother *ROFL*
2.71SE for life
So what games out there that would benefit from this?
I think by reading all these posts, you can gather that the fw 1.5 and 2.71 SE A B B"B "" and 2.71 SE C devhook 0.50 with FW2.80 2.81 2.82! things are getting terribly messy on the firmware front, no wonder there are so many posts asking for help! no doubt their will be a few psp bricks due to the complicated proccess! I've noticed how messy its become over the last 3 months!
Why are there so many steps involved to get this DevHook functional?
do you have to flash and if anyone know if the proper dh0.5 not this beta will need flashing or not
I have two psp's (i'm greedy) one has dark alex's 2.71 SE B''' one now has fw 1.50 with boosters 0.50 devhook which is best? Ive just run who wants to be a millionaire on both setups! cabelas africa safari wont work with either! socom2 works on both setups (not tried online) star wars lethal alliance doesn't work wither either setup! so - why bother with devhook 0.50 yet? its fiddly to setup and wont run the only two games that wont work on my 2.71 b"' setup! I guess until more games are released which require a full feature 2.82 firmware, might aswell keep your 2.71 SE B's and C. that was fiddly enough to install and keep updated! to many rushed updates! Messsssssssssssyyyyyyyyyyyy!
what the hell is it??!...ya//u fail
i cant seem to browse the internet with 2.82. my psp just freezes and shuts off. does anyone know how to fix this?
go to the forums..there is help there
forum
kinda mean...kinda rude... but kinda true too
well, i went through the crazily tedious process of getting devhook 0.5 on my psp, and it even seemed to work - until i tried using the web browser. the psp locks up and turns itself off when i try to enter a URL. sometimes UMD games freeze up too. to be honest, i think i should have stayed with devhook 0.46.
this release seems way to unstable. if i could go back and not install it i would.
awesome...booster is back!!!! shame that DA left the scene though/or thinking of i'm gonna give this a go..
LMFAO booster was warned by sony with a cease-and-desist tht if he continued work on devhook legal action would be taken, and here we see it, LMFAO WAT AN IDIOT!!! im just on my way to email sony and tell them all about thsi and get him sued BIG TIME!!! serves him right hehehe
it looks like internet browser isnt working in this version
Good to hear that Booster isn't dead. If Booster boosts itself in making 3.x emulation, then we have a deadly combination (PS3 and PSP) with FULL HOMEBREW SUPPORT!!!!!! (PS3 supports homebrew (open dev network).[i] I have to say that I don't need this now, I'm using DarK_AleX' custom firmware now, SE-B", I wait 'till the overclocking mod for SE-C comes out...[/i]
Maybe if ar$eholes like yourself were gracious enough to help newcomers to the scene, perhaps they would do this thing called 'learning', which would consequently lead to another interesting thing called 'understanding'. This has its advantages, because then they 'don't ask stupid questions'. Think about it. Incidentally, you've just made a lot of 'noobs' very happy with your nice new word 'idiocracy'. Tw@t.
u know, its people like u that mess up the scene. ur porbably one of those idiots that upgraded and is now *****ing about it. im gonna email sony and tell them to tell you u to f*** off!!!!
Worst Devhook Ever Made. Its SOOOOOOOO Buggy and i got my from Ps3news.com which has the full 18mb verison and yet it keep frezzing. Booster lost his edge in 2.82. i hope Devhook V 0.51 comes out with alot of bugs fix or else no Devhook untill 3.01 verison comes out
here u have the complete dh 050, just copy the folder in the root of ur mem stick http://rapidshare.com/files/5485122/DH0.50.rar
OMGOMG! wat a nice christmas pressie from booster! cant w8 for 3.0!
here u have the complete dh 050, just copy the folder in the root of ur mem stick http://rapidshare.com/files/5485122/DH0.50.rar
LMFAO booster brought this on himself. I'm only going to help this along. He's an idiot! ***** you hombrew *****es. Your gonna lose Dark Alex and Booster is get his ass sued. HAHA
here u have the complete dh 050, just copy the folder in the root of ur mem stick http://rapidshare.com/files/5485122/DH0.50.rar
your gay
AND YOU ARE A FGUUUCKING HOMO ANTIHOMBREWLORD JUST CAUSE YOU CANT AFFORD A PSP U ARE A HATER THATS SAD BEING THAT PSP'S ONLY COST 150 NOW
everything you need is on this site and with instructions its is soooooo easy even for a dum ass like me :P swear down USE THIS! http://www.psp-haxors.com/devhook-ultimate-installer-v15/333
Will i be able to do this with a TA-082 with HEN D? noone has been answering any of the questions dealing with TA-082.
EVRETHING WORKS u dont want it then dont get it help like 9 ppl yesterday and they all worked take the link http://www.rarhost.com/download-1r7vls.html
I have HEN-D too (non-TA-082) and I tried it. Doesn't work in emulated 1.50. We need to wait for a launcher for 2.71 like with dh .4x launcher.
You know there is beta's of 3.00 emulation floating around. Theres a terrible problem with it though where when you check your battery or system software the psp freezes up
Here's a dump I made of 2.82 for you all: http://www.freewebs.com/tehluxx0rsz/2.82.rar
ok so the emulation of 2.82 is awesome and i love it, but i have a few probs with it! 1. To my knowledge there is no DAX support and or plugin for dev hook .50 (i tried the plugin for .46 and as i figured it did not work) 2. It is not compatable with Harleyg custom firmware .2 when you turn the wireless off to load devhook (again my assumption it would not work but i tried anyway) 3. when you overclock devhook to 333/166 it will either lock up or completely not load at all. anyone know any work arounds to these issues or new plugins (although i am pretty sure they do not exist as of yet) if you do e-mail me at eatcheeseanddrivefast@gmail.com
Sorry to say but this doesnot work on a TA-082!! I am sad because i own a TA-082. Maybe one will be made for people using HEN.
.. came all over my keyboard. GREAT NEWS!
Ok Well I tried everything with my PSP AC Adapter and my PSP Baterry in and all. But it failed. I need the 2.71 and 2.82 PSAR Dump I think. I might then have a chance. That's why I hinted "THOSE WHO DO HAVE DEVHOOK 0.50 WORKING COPY YOU WORKING FILES AND UPLOAD THEM UP FOR US ALL" If you can please. I and hopefully everyone else would greatly appreaciate it. Thanks!!! and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
I realize that its only a beta, and its great that we have this as well as C-Z's installer, but I must say it is pretty buggy and I have no need for it yet. What I wanna do is return to 0.46 like it was and wait until all the kinks are worked out. I've got 1.5 w/ harley g, how I do I return to DH .46 w/o screwing up anything on flash and what files can I delete from my memstick?
this is gey TA-082 users need a autoexec hen d mod. and a devhook 2.71 launcher for 0.50
Gosh this is so damn awsome. I like it!
LOOK AT THAT GUY hahhhahahahahahahahha BLESS HIS HEART
I have a C++ coding book but have no idea how to use it. I could be coding for the PSP but I don't understand C++ that much. Anybody want the book?
for some reason this will work on a regular 1.50 PSP but not a 1.50 PSP with harleyg cf
Big disappointment for this devhook. He had to wait to make to go out that complete. This is a beta version, and nobody has specified it. I Full a bugs, here is a list. 1) Internet browser, don't work. 2)Clock cpu not modifiable (Only work 222 Mhz) 3)Wma pluging Locked. 4)Flash Player Locked. 5)When exit the game,sometimes psp crash. 6)The old save game, saved with 2.71 loading with 2.82 say, "Save Game Corruptd. 7)New Game as Pro evolution soccer 6 Don't Work. (To work it follow this method) Go to http://www.ps3news.com enter in the Forum section, category Psp game, search the post Pro Evolution Soccer 6 and you find method. All of this is unbelievable,Booster had to wait to make to go out the full version, so much is worth to make to go out the 3.0 beta without the Psx emulator. I hope in the 2.82 Full emulated firmware, not partial. I am extremely upset.

I am running 2.71 with a TA-082 motherboard, and I tried using HenC and The Devhook Launcher for 2.71 or w/e to emulate down to 1.5 in turn to emulate up to 2.82 and no luck HenC was having issues running, kept crashing so, Booster, with people like me having TA motherboards please release a devhook that can emulate 2.82 and 1.5 for 2.71 TA-082 users like me I'm so longing to play Socom FireTeam Bravo 2 online and I beg of you!!! Lol ok enough with the socialized comment, Give me some F*cking Devhook Woohoo!!!!!
http://noobfriendly.blogspot.com/ PIMPIN SITE I JUST FOUND HAS COOL VIDEO TUTORIALS
yet to be fixed...
OK I have given up on Devhook 0.50. Even the Retard Proof Version (Idiot Proof) still has some major bugs in it. I have reinstalled Devhook 0.46 back on my PSP and is up an running again. I will wait for a way better release of a Devhook with easy 1,2,3 instructions. Sort of like Mac Computers where you Plug and Play. This Devhook 0.50 Installation is a lot like PC's where you Plug and Pray.......that it works right the first time.
I upgraded to 2.81 2 days ago, I didn't feel like being left out and not being able to play games that my friends were playing so what the hell. Then 2 days later freaking devhook up to 2.82 CRAP!!!!!
...mention some of the bugs. Don't get dissapointed. Booster purposely released this beta version to test out any bug. More ppl testing n report it is always faster n better than he himself test it alone. In another way, u have help him too. I guess when he looks at your comment, now he knows which part to fix. So be happy.
Wow that's a lot of work for noob who are not that proficient with program developement. MORE LIKE NOOBENEMY!!! Noobfriendly means a making of an .exe file that extracts all the files you need on you PSP's memory stick. Then when its done you stratup you PSP and play the firmware emulator. That would save a lot of unnecessary hassels. DEVHOOK 0.46 I wouldn't be suprised if someone had an anxiety attack after doing all this. I mean one wrong move and you will have to redo the whole installation. P.S. that was just a joke about anxiety attack. However there could be a better Noobfriendly .EXE for noobs. This is almost exaclty like making a recipe. You want to make sure your recipe is easy to understand so that others who folow it will have a similar finished product of what the recipe proclaims to produce. So far this Devhook 0.50 recipe is just a lengthy ongoing creation that Noobs would get lost on the first couple of steps and thus you have more people wanting to know why their installation of this program is not working as they know is supposed to do.

can i use this on my 2.8 firmware
it's your own fault for updating :D
The audio.prx decrypted from 2.71 DATA.PSAR must not be overwritten when files inside F0 (2.82 decrypted DATA.PSAR) to dh folder.
in every forum i have read i have not seen one person report web browser working for 2.82 i have seen many people saying stuff about issues with the webbrowser
it's cabelas africa safari. this won't run becoz the game needs new format of audio.prx from firmware 2.81. dh0.50 still using audio.prx from 2.71 which is not compatible with the safari game. the AT3 audio files of the game are all zipped with encryption.
can i use this on my 2.8???thanks
do you need to flash ur psp or not? cause it you do, then booster you suck. i hate flashing, i shat my self when i was downgrading from 2.6
see, u stupid *****, no one agrees with your pathetic ass. so y dont you just go shoot urself in the forehead.
will this be able to play isos or anything of that matter. plz respond
You are a piece of s*it nanny bit*h. People like you who try to help a multibillion dollar company tie up our court system with a lawsuit aimed at keeping people who program computer code for a portable, dedicated, video game COMPUTER system behind bars or paying money. Booster does not profit from his work to my knowledge except for by way of sense of accomplishment and personal satisfaction. And then to have some little d*cked POS like you try to stop him from giving us more versatility from a device we all paid a lot of money for. Just because $ony says they have the rights to control things AFTER they are purchased doesn't make it so. Grow up you PHAG....
yes, every one of them.
I think there's a bit of a problem in loading games in firmware 2.82... Everytime i choose the game dave mirra bmx or Marvel Ultimate Alliance, it hangs when it reached the fmv sequences. However, when i load the Nba live 07 of NFL Street 3, the game doesn't hang and I can play it continuously. I wish booster fix this problem.
chris, does this work on fw 2.80 or do i have to upgrade to make it work
hell yeah, fat ass steaks rule, and booster definitely deserves it.
it never successfully installs the config files.... PLZ HELP!!!!!!
an idiot
Is this working for a Ta-082? I know the 2.71 HENC works for the TA-082. I was wondering if all the devhooks work with TA-082. Thanks.
dh0.50 beta has many bugs yet to be fixed n Cabelas Africa Safari.iso not playable...yet
He was thinking of leaving the hb scene but not yet. He is still with us u moron.
Hey i just tested BMX w/ DH.50 and it worked fine...
Booster or anyone, please port this for TA-082 HEND. TA-082 users will be grateful.
Everything loads up fine for me, but then when I get to the browser to enter an address, it crashes..
When Booster is in jail remember me and sony. lol hahaahaa. ***** all of you *****es trying to defend him.
WOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!Soo cool!!I love my 1.5! never 2.71 se-c
Is the flying mount work dudes
Has anyone confirm the 4 GB MS limitation being lifted up in dh 2.82 emu? Does dh050 support 4 n 8 GB MS?
tried hammy goes nuts on fw1.5 Devhook 0.50 doesn't work on this setup! tried it on fw2.71 SE B'' and it works! whats going on? anyone got star wars lethal alliance working yet? cant get evolution soccer 6 working either! the new Activision games releases seem to crash after the Activision video! could be a good place to start looking at bugs in dev hook 0.50
can any1 tell me why my backups arent loading??
I have a problem: when I try fix devhook on my psp v 2.82 i just get a message that the file can't be read any ideas??
it says the game data is coruped
Star wars does work even with the 2.71 devhook you just need to get the proper rip the first rip was corrupted.
How the hell I use the 2.80 decrypter? I run it with my 2.80 psp and it says errot or something like that: And where the ***** should i but the src?
thanx akumma, your 100 percent correct, star wars working on my fw1.5 devhook 0.50! PSP - Star Wars Lethal Alliance [EUR][MULTI5][WwW.Gamestorrents.CoM] I used this one!
this is cool. once you get it to work. IT TIME FOR SOCOM !!
when I try to start the PSARDumper the psp starts the way it should but after some time it just shut down in stead of going on to the menu were you should push scuare i use FW 2.82 Any tip?!?
Can this work if i use HEN C like i am now, emulate 1.5 and then run Devhook 0.50? anyone try that?
i think i just realized the answer to my own question you cant have 0.46 port to 2.71 and 0.50 on your mem stick at the same time can you? if you install 0.50 it will over write the 0.46 files and then i wouldnt be able to run devhook at all great fack....hopefully they port this ***** to 2.71 god damn ta-082
Anybody have an auto installer that will work on a 32MB mem stick?
does this work on firmware 2.8 or am i still screwed with my 2.8 please answer me
a million stupid people asked that already and a million smart people said NO
bobo!!! magbasa ka!!!!! okinam....
Man, this devhook is buggy as hell. It won't always load the ISO, gets stuck at the white psp screen sometimes. No wonder the file said BETA.
i did not know this was going to happen. i sure hope thay get 3.0 working
Get that thru ur head!Of course it doesnt and the idiot who keeps saying he cant get it to work on 2.82 is because you can only use homebrew up to 2.80!
does this also emulate 3.01?
How do you keep your network connection settings?
Thanks chomatz, you instuctions helped me out so much.
hmm my internet browser doesnt work in dev hook ... it freeze when i click input address bar...
How do you save the network connections from your last dev hook install?
you cant
hey hey, i'm currantly using SE-C with no umd on because my umd drive broke(my lil brother went fishing with my psp and er well....). Anyway, will devhook 0.50 emulate 2.82 whilst allowing me to still run iso's with no umd?
ANyway to change the ISO like in .46 when you wanted to change isos you just hit home and L. I love this program but I also really loved the convenience of getting out of one game and being able to load another in seconds
Can you tell me that will these steps works fine with my TA-082 Firmware. Currently I run devhook 0.36 well enough) but I still need to take avantage of 2.8 FW's Internet Browser because AFAIK this browser support Vietnamese characters. Thanks. Chen.
I found out the problem while installing. I needed plain 1.5 of 2.71 SE but could not use 1.5 patch to dump files.
i've been tryin for weeks but am still unsuccessful. i have fw ver2.81 and want to use homebrew. someone tell me how. plzzzzzzzz
Go F yourself you PIRATE! And booster too. All you pirate using devhook (lame pirating software) are nothing more than CHEAP ASS PIRATE!
