Installers for 3.02 OE-A and Devhook 0.51.0100

Installers are useful

The one thing that hasn't been mentioned about Dark_AleX's 3.02 OE-A is how you actually pronounce it. Phonetically, "OEA" could be prounounced as "Oh Yeah!" Doesn't that sound like a fitting callsign for custom firmware?

Here's another reason to be in the "Oh Yeah!" spirit: Over at the PSP-Haxors website, Chaos Zero has released his easy installers for 3.02 OE-A and Devhook 0.51.0100. The OE-A easy installer lets you install the firmware and a recovery folder for OE-A, while the Devhook installer lets you put the latest version of Devhook up, along with a custom Eboot from Chaos Zero. He does make a note for SE/OR users, however: "To use DevHook, you must set your GAME folder to 1.50 kernel in the Recovery Menu."

Of course, before you can go using this to emulate PS1 games on your handheld, it's time for the ever-popular announcements. Even though it's an easy installer, you'll want to make sure you know how to use these things or you could end up messing your settings. This is especially noteworthy as the installers don't actually come with a readme, so check their site or our forums for additional info on manual installation or on using this easy installer.

One thing to note that if not installed properly or if you have installed custom files to our flash in the past, there is a chance that you might brick your PSP so please make sure you are aware of the proper procedure and any requirements before trying this. In the mean time, here's one last thing mentioned in the actual OE-A installers before you do anything. Definitely important stuff to remember:

Because this program writes to flash, you must have a 75% battery charge.


Once installed, your 1.50 Eboots will go in the GAME150 folder, 2.71 Eboots in GAME. This can be switched to 1.50 Eboots in GAME and 2.71 Eboots in GAME271 by holding R while booting the PSP.


Even if you do not plan on using 2.71 homebrew, you must have the GAME folder present.


The first thing you run on your PSP will be the "3.02 OE-A Firmware Install".


That being said, try it out, and if you need help with installing it manually and need to ask for directions, or even if you're just wondering about the difference between this and a manual install, you can learn more about the "Oh Yeah" Custom Firmware in our forums.

Note: Two readers (via comments) have reported bricking their PSP using this application. They were both running 2.71 SE-C. Please take caution and be certain its worth the risk prior to using these basic installers!

Devhook's always been a great app, but what would you need devhook to do now that 3.02 Custom can't or at least will have PRX modules etc to do soon?

so i see there's a RECOVERY option in 3.02 OEA installer, does that mean i can upgrade to 302 OEA and back to 150 anytime i want if i use this installer? or is it really harmful to the PSP if i keep flashing it?

i know 3.02 OEA is really good, but i'm thinking maybe in 2 months someone will come up with something that only runs on 1.50 but not 3.02 OEA, so i'm hesitated to run the installation of 3.02 on my PSP

To downgrade from 3.02OE, you just have to put that "RECOVERY" folder included in the download into the GAME folder, copy a 1.50 Firmware named "UPDATE.PBP" into that, run the recovery menu and use "run programm at ms0:\PSP\GAME\R ECOVERY"

» Problems with 0.51.0100 devhook

After you run the devhook installer, do you have to run the firmware installer from your game tab? I suppose not since 3.02 is already on the list, but devhook just won't load for me. When I do run the firmware installer for devhook and run devhook on 3.02, I get a BSoD and it won't go away unless I quit devhook.

Yes! you can always return back to 1.50 if you wish.

If you can get into recovery menu your psp is not bricked..

Running the installer to you desktop then transferring the files to you psp by hand is much faster.

You should reset your psp setting to default in system settings after you upgrade.The blue settings are messed up screen is normal after upgrade .

I know its hard to let go of 1.50,but since 2.71 se theres is no reason not move on... its like evolution

After installing, it pretty much kept crashing my PSP. Even after holding the Power button for 20 secs and opening it again didn't work. However, on the 2nd time holding the Power button down it finally reset itself back to 1.50. Scared the ***** out of me. I thought I bricked it.

I have a 1.5 PSP that was downgraded from 2.0 when I first bought it a year ago. I have upgraded it since. I had devhook 5.1, bookr and Snes9x on my psp when i put the oea installer on it. After running it succesfully, I manually restarted my psp and in return I've got a bricked psp. Holding R does NOT bring me to a recovery menu. The only thing functional on my psp is the power light, and for only 8 seconds at a time.
