DevHook 0.42 Return-To-1.50 Mod |
Ó
Jas0nuk from our forums has release a modification of the latest version of Boosters DevHook that allows you to return to your beloved 1.5 firmware without doing a hard reboot. This cuts down on the time it takes to reboot and means you don't even have to touch the power button in order to get back to 1.5 firmware. All you have to do is press both Home and square at the same time and your PSP will reboot within a few seconds.
This version works with DevHook 0.42-0.42b and works by simply overwriting dh\kd\vshex.prx in order to add the reboot function. Jas0nuk has has help from moonlight, Dark_Alex and PSpet in order to make this as smooth and easy to use as possible. In the rare case that the required functions cannot run in order restart, you will receive an error message, and you can try again a few seconds later - much better than a crash.
Todo:
- Get rid of the ugly lines that appear at the bottom of the screen for 2 seconds before it actually restarts
- Faster restart
- Better error checking for psppet's findproc() function
DevHook v0.42/0.42b is required to use this. If you do not have either of these already, download it below and then install DevHook before installing this modification.

nice job
nice! gJ
thanks, i was waiting while for this feature.
Thanks, Now i can go back to 1.5 without restarting my PSP :D but it still freezes when i try to go back to XMB when im in a game :P Good Job
I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THANKS!!!
nice work its pretty cool
ok i no wat this does but where the hells the 2.71 devhook he should be workin on that instead of fixing bugs in the 2.5 emulation
this is great now all you have to work on is an easier installation cuz i sure dont have time to follow all those instructions just to get devhook
nocomment
This was made by someone else, not the original developer of DevHook - Read!
Home+Square and No Restart!!!
Good job, but now im waiting in 2.6/2.7 full emulation :)
.42+this patch .42a/.42b sucks
Yupp, i cant get it to work. My setting: UMD , and ISO ( both tried, also without a UMD ) CPU: 222 Version : 2.5 So far cant get it to work, tried pressing home+[], holding it, pressing it repeatably. Nothing.
It does try and restart with home+[], but it crashes, black screen then PSP switches itself off
great job Jas0nuk!
Jas0nuk, if you need some one to help you test it, or to just get ahold of me. my e-mail is endless_ryan@msn.com. Im on MSN right now. And usually am..
42b crashes when i try to exit the game to xmb.. theres white lines on the bottom of the screen and psp freezes and shuts off after a while, ive noticed this problem being posted on a few other sites..
this werks awesome. nice Job!! You guys seems to be able to do anything......
It's not that big of an update..... ..... http://cheater912.proboards101.com/index.cgi?board=pspnews&action=display&thread=1152290503
Nice job, but i don´t downgrade yet ! I only have original UMD, and all for 2.6 version... :( I must wait i litle bit for a full emulation of 2.6...
I totally agree with you. This power reset thingy is just a luxury. We could of done without it.
this makes everything alot easier good job Jas0nuk
hi i have installed devhook full from this site i have installed the folders as req it runs and i have changed settings to xmb etc when i run the game it changes fw to 2.5 ad ends up running JUST my umd in the drive and not the iso then while running gta(in my drive) it loads and then just reboots after rebooting itgoes to 2.5fw and then i can change back to 1.5 with a reboot hard. can sumone please email me their full working devhook 0.42 any version and i can overwrite and check please or tell me what i am doing wrong PLEASE HELP AND THANKS IN ADVANCE PLEASE EMAIL ME ROOT FILES ETC IF YOU CAN AS IT DOESNT WORK WITH MY VERSION har786@gmail.com p.s i have installed the 2.0 and 2.5 fw update folder files etc as rewuired
This is nice, devhook is one heck of great loader, but it was that it couldnt be closed without rebooted the PSP, but here it is. Thanks! Now I never need to power off my PSP!
good work for this. Thanks
ive noticed it only works on 2.0 emulation not 2.5
gonna try this right now thanks for an awesome mod!
nice job Jas0nuk! and now with somebody else also 'help' booster in devhook, and more marvelous program coming out, our PSP community has never been better!! ranmax09, J and everybody!! I've had the same problem as the 2 of you are facing at the moment - PSP freeze when trying to go back to XMB. at first, I also felt that 0.42 series are s***s, but not anymore! try reseting ur PSPs to the default setting and everything will be fine. I'm not sure about this, but it worked for me! just give it a try, and may ur problem will be solved! now plus this new 'update', devhook got better than ever! p/s : btw, thanx again to Jas0nuk for this great 'update'! currently waiting for devhook to emulate 2.6 and later fw in patience! gambare!!
ok no thanks.
what sites was it posted at 1st i checked around 3 or 4 ps2nfo was the 1st i saw it at
dude #7 soulreaver chill man... wait it out, beggars dont get to be choosers, this is getting better and better, im glad he still have interest in this, if it was up to me id just somehow ip ban you from getting devhook... patience man, great things come out with time, anyways nice going with the 1.5 return, realy useful!
Yeah, great, we could also have done without the PSP, or even the PS2...
kool... been waiting for this to come along, thanks Jas0nuk (ignore the haters btw)
not talking bout this update im talking bout the program in general
this is one of the features I realyy wished devhook had and now it does!! Great work Jas0nUk!!!!!
Thanks for the reply, been using devhook from the start and really liked it.. What do u mean by default settings on my PSP? Like restore default settings? For now i have put 42a back on and paired with this new mod, its AWESOME!! :) If anyone has a fix for this problem please respond, itll be greatly appreciated
you're full of sh.it, there are no other sites than psnfo that have this on the front page... if you found it on some obscure forum, then congratulations you have no life
Were can i obtain all the nessorcery files for the ew devhook 0.42, i downloaded 0.42b and it's justa copule of files, no update eboots etc. Any elp would be nice thanks :)
I tried to exit GTA on my PSP and it freezed. Is there a way to fix this issue?
@ 41 just drag the kd folder to the root of your memstick and that all you need to do to update. @ 42, I would suggest using 0.42 and not the a or b updates for now cos the same thing happens to me for ANY game hope this helps you guys out
This was posted at maxconsole, psp-hacks before it was posted here.
@43, where can i get devhook 0.42, i've looked on here and they dont seem to have it, only 0.42a and b.
as someone else already said .42b causes the PSP to lock up when trying to return to XMB from a game. Use .42a instead with this mod
nocomment
with homebrew, our little power button sure gets a fricken workout...thank you to the devs for saving us the time, our fingers and our sweet sweet little power button!
Wrong!!!! wasn't posted on any front page except ps2nfo until it was posted here. might have been posted in a forum, if you saw it first your are teh 1337 winnah
OK ***** stop being all like "where the ***** is my 2.71 emulation" seriously. make your own if your so *****ing high and mighty. he can take as much time as he wants and why would we not fix all the bugs first? if we didnt it would just have even more bugs at 2.71.
It's not that good of an update. Ok, it is nice to not have to hold the power switch down for a few seconds to get back to 1.5, but Devhook has to come out with 2.7/1 emulation now that the prx is decrypted. Please Booster, work on getting 2.6+ emulation soon. Fight Night is just sitting here at my house waiting to get opened. (It was a birthday gift, but I really want to play it)
Remember that is not really an update. It wasnt dont by Booster so stop critising because there is no 2.71 emulation yet. Anywayz, GREAT WORK Jas0nuk
@ 51.. ive been playing fight night for a month now.. and i never even opened the package! I SO rox. =p
IT WORKD FINE FOR ME BUT ONE THING I WOULD LIKE TO ADD IS FOR THIS TO NOT LOAD THE GAME AFTER THE RESET ! you know how many times i / we have to open that UMD Slot door just to not load the game !!! My door is ganna break one day with all this opening and closing lol ..... Just an IDEA *
Set your parental lock to level 1, and you don't have to open the door anymore. when you start psp, it will ask you to input password, just hit "O" button and you go into OS.
why dont you UMD dump your Fight Night, replace the .prx's, and play with devhook? You dont need devhook to emu 2.6 to play Fight Night...just saying, you COULD be playing it now and not have to wait.
The home key problem doesn't happen with me, but only for street fighter alpha 3 max.
Like this was really needed. What we need is 2.6/71 emulation.
#4, #18, #29 and $42, I have the same problem as you guys, on exit, a white bar appears below my screen, and it hangs. It won't hang if i replace devhook.prx with one from 0.41
Well here is what u do..people like the other versions better but it does work with .42b...... Download the regular .42....then when u download .42a, just replace the dh folder with the one thats alreayd there. Then, download .42b amd do the same. Then get the patch, and do the same...i mean...thats what i did..and it worked liek a charm..
were getting all these mods for devhook and the modchip has nothing! HAH! XD And if we get 2.7 emulation, were set!
the new devhook is out and it has 2.71 i got it from a torrent site the loco demo worked!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's not on the official website, so how do you suppose that? Anyway, this is a great mod, very useful! I hope it'll work with the next version of devhook.
If .43 is out as u say...whre is the site..? At least back yourself up...other than that...it sound alot like a lie.
the new devhook is out and it has 3.0 i got it from a torrent site the wipeout pure 2 demo worked!!!!!!!!!!!! what a A hole>>>>62
..Jas0nuk has has help from moonlight, Dark_Alex and PSpet... dark_alex and moonlight are the same person :)
@sash dark_alex and moonlight are the same person :) Yeah, I'm still wondering about that :/
BOOSTER is working on a new version of devhook which will support 2.6 ONLY. 2.71 emulation is on its way but the 2.6 version had already been almost completed before Dark_Al' managed to decompress the 2.71 reboot.bin file. Expect a devhook 0.43 with 2.6 support soon, and then devhook 0.44 with 2.7 support a week or so later. He also asked for people to stop uploading the decrypted 2.6/2.7 fw's to pspsoftware otherwise it will get shut down, he has all he needs to finish the 2.6/7 support. thanks.

...and would people moaning about which site they saw it on first, give it a rest! I mean for gods sake, there's people starving in africa, and your worried about which fricking site you saw this on first. Damn, at least you saw it!
hi all i tried this reset trick now when i load a game from an iso then hit home and [] at the same time the return to home page pops up and then i hit yes it loads back to the main psp screen which it never did before when i hit the home only button. but the thing is its still in 2.50 mode and i can not run devhook i thoguht this would reset it to 1.50 so why is it not doing so i use devhook 42a thanks for any help
soul reaver, you're a jerk! Be appreciative that someone is working on something. The fact that we have anything is great. I think 95% of us can't program for diddly squat and for us to complain is absurd. You're getting free programs so enjoy it and appreciate the hardwork that anyone and everyone puts in. If you have time to complain, then you have time to help make the project better by contributing.
The Reset function only works on the XMB. So you'd have to exit the game, and when in the 2.5 XMB, press home + Square and it will reboot the PSP into the original 1.5 Firmware. On another note, I'm using this with 0.42b and it works fine, exits games fine, and resets perfectly. Hats off to Jas0nuk for this great add-on, and to Booster for making DevHook.
As usual a load of whinging *****s raise their ugyly pock-marked heads to moan about it 'being a luxury' without using their five brain cells to work out it's a mod by someone else and not Booster. Ok, it's a luxury but it's a useful one. Just shut the f*ck up unless you have something to add that is worth listening to you mindless tw*ts. Booster is working on the 2.71 Devhook so stop f*cking whining like schoolkids asking when it's going to be out. IT WILL BE OUT WHEN IT'S OUT PRICKS. Ungrateful losers. Oh, and well done for the mod jas0nuk - worked first time for me and it will sure save a lot of time.
thanks for the help works now but i had to put 42a on becasue 42b when in game and you press the home button when playing a game it would lock up and shut down but on 42a it does go to the xmb screen and then i do the reset trick wounder why 42b will not let you go home when playing a game ???
Have a link to back this up with? Or are you just trying to make stuff up to sound cool.
It depends which game you are playing. My psp crash (with white lines at the bottom of the screen) when I quit Loco roco, but i have not this problem with PQI & Astonishia Stor.
Hi I've been working on a couple of new images for DevHook as I find the old ones are getting a bit outdated. If anyone wishes to use them please feel free: http://www.golden-designs.co.uk/psp/dev_hook_2.5.jpg http://www.golden-designs.co.uk/psp/dev_hook_2.6.jpg (for when 2.6 works) http://www.golden-designs.co.uk/psp/dev_hook_2.7.jpg (for when 2.7 works) Hope you like them. Cheers, Mat.
Why are people posting about the exit crash bug in Devhook 0.42? NOBODY CARES. USE THE FIRST 0.42 RELEASE.
It just crashes for me whenever I use iso load.
# 83, me as well... LocoRoco didnt work when i upgraded so i just went back to the orig. 42 devhook. Good try i guess anyway.
I don't get it .42b doesn't come with the 2 folders you put in the game folder so how can I install .42b? Please help me install 42b PLEASE!
www.ng-gaming.com
it doesn't work for .42b I tried it and it doesn't do anything. Just thought I should let you know so maybe someone can edit the full post. But of course you wouldn't do that because pspupdates likes to steal articles from people and not give any credit and suck. Right?
How can we read these files on our PC's without them being messed up.. even is a Hex Reader you can't make sense of them.
I assume by "PSX" files you mean PRX files, the are compiled modules for the PSP OS's and wont make sense when you open them because they are designed to be excuted by the PSP's OS. Its like trying to open a .EXE file on your PC, you would need to open the original source ivisual stuido (or whatever was used to create the exe) to make sense of it.
Yer I know that but what PC software can be used to view the files is what I'm asking. There must be some software out there that can open these files so that we can read the contents.
But the problem with the latest devhook (yeah, 0.42b) is that the CPU will change to default (222) when exit an ISO, so Im using the .42 instead.
I've tried both .42 and .42b with this and Square+Home = nothing on my PSP with this mod.
tried this mod on. seems it slows down the loading on some games and even makes some of fast loading games choppy (might be my ms, not sure). although its a really sweet fix.
its true its out already.. pspsoftware.ddo.jp/wiki/
v
DevHook v0.43 ?
Another flawless success for the 0.44 downdater. I now feel better. I bought my PSP with 1.5, and since i didn't know any better, I upgraded it immediately. Nice to be back to 1.5 where it's easier to use homebrew, since that's mostly what i use it for anway :)
