1st post, this is cool!
2nd post, first post is uncool!
Finally, 2.80 emulation from memory stick.
Off topic
Stating post number is very uncool and gay.
“2.80 emulation”
err…no…dunno where you got that idea from ace.
Anyone know the difference between this and .45?
Ah shite. So it doesn’t emulate 2.80? Shite. I’ll check after this download finishes.
Has anyone else had problems downloading this.
@sdfdf
The main difference is that its possible to write DH 0.46 to flash0, giving you the option to start it from the psp’s flash instead of running it of the MemoryStick. Should save battery juice and speed up some games.
@starblazer
You mean like, it won’t unzip or says no archive found? Yeah..
ya says corupt file!
In time, someone should see this and correct this.
This file is damaged on download and does not unpack
hey guys try and go to chaoszeros website and download from the mirror
sorry, that was my fault - it’s not actually a zip archive. If you have already downloaded it - just rename the .zip extension to .exe and it’ll work. I’ve corrected the file on the server now.
thanks greg
Thanks greg.
Whoevers making these installers, very good work, im relying on them! Does this part install to flash like 0.46 normal?
This is just an app on ur computer that installs DevHook on ur PSP automatically, not new news for ppl who know how to install it, but extremly good for ppl who are still having trouble installing it.
oh, just incase it wasn’t conveyed, thanks very very much.
I’m not sure I’m gonna use this update as I’m very happy with 0.45 (which is my first since I just got my PSP) but still very good work. :-) Cheers
I never got devhook to work untill I find this autoinstaller.
THANKS TO YOU I CAN USE DEVHOOK! :)
how do i load it of flash 0?
Is there going to be a macinstaller also ?!
i have PSP v.2.71 ..i can use this hack can any1 help me pls
@neshan u can’t use it
how do i convert my homebrews into 1.50???
does this ultimate installer save directly to flash 0 or is it still go to the ms cuz it say “it CAN…”
@vicecity55 1.50 is firmware version u should try to download hombrew for 1.5fw but if u get any hombrew for 1.5x+ then run it throgh kxploit
blah blah blah this thing is awsome now 333mhz works!!!!!!
@123- installing to flash is an option.
And only select files will get copied to flash.
Gor more information, visit the thread and read the DevHook Flashing Tutorial, located right under the ISO and UMD tutorials.
http://www.psp-hacks.com/forums/post-315470.html
does the browser work for anyone???
ever since .44 dev hook the browser dosent work!!!
but, stilll no 2.80?
“but still no 2.80,” well daaaaaaaaaa! give the man a break! ok dehook we waited long anuff were is it
i can’t seem to get webbrowser to work at 333 … but at 222 speed it works on 2.71.
Thanks for the GREAT package.
off topic but can custom firmware be installed on 2.71
There is a fix for the 333MHz.
I’m uploading v1.1.1 now.
You may also pick up just the fix in the thread.
hey guys how do u take a screenshot and how do run the homebrew of devhook
need a anwser despretaly . okay mabe not despreta;y but preety bad
how do u reset the settings on 2.71 caz it wont let me. and when i press o to do so it reboots
nice 1 just went up to 0.46 from 0.45 nice little back down to 1.5f and other things can’t wait till 2.80f keep up the good work …ps devhook ultimate installer f****n rules…D
what is kxploit? where do i get it? is it hard to use?
cool installer. Greg, you are my idol. I owe my life to you. Thanks a lot!
installed fine no probs so how do i make this play iso’s?
Hey, I’m noob and I’ve got a Q, I got my PSP uppgraded to v2.71, can this pack make me use those emulators and let me play the games, lika PSPRevolution and GBA?
And if so, how do i do? thanks in advance, gameboy advance ;P
axelS, you can stuff your 2.71 upgraded psp into some hole until anyone finds a way to get it back. Cause it’s wise to think first, than do things. Any FW above 2.60 is unable to run homebrew apps as of yet.
Argh, thx
axelS just get a warranty and just keep giving it back till u get a 2.0-2.6 thats what i did, $20+GTA isnt that much and u can play ISO’s too
I got a 2.00 retail, and downgraded it to 1.5. Best thing I ever did. It takes everything. :-)
Btw, anyone knows if there is any way to remove the music that plays when I highlight the DevHook icon on my memstick?
yeah that musics a bit heavy for my liking (playing about 6am on the way into work ;))
where do I put the decrypted 2.60 files on the memory stick to emulate firmware 2.6???
Hi, after i install the devhook 0.45 and above, the wi fi (infrastructure mode) doesn’t work anymore, always says internal error. What’s wrong? Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.
omfg…first time hearing, that wi-fi wont work anymore…try formatting…reinstalling
Muyfa,
Use PBP Unpacker to remove the AT3 file from the eboot
Extract the EBOOT from your devhook
%__SCE__DH_ENG folder
You will see the PARAM.SFO,
icon0.png , PIC1.PNG and a SND0.AT3 file
Just remove the SND0.AT3 file (The sound File) ,
And repack the EBOOT without it.
Naruto pack? Bleach pack???
For what??? More space wasted on my memory stick…
I don’t need them to run devhook!!!
Why don’t you guys release a devhook installer just with.. nothing! No themes, no packs! Just devhook + usb mods+no autorun ??
@CRS Dude, this installer does NOT force you to install those packs. Choose what you want and shut up. Great work Chaos!
Sweet! Worked perfectly. Thanks alot. This was bugging me a whole lot. :-)
I’m still amazed that people need an installer to simply copy files to the mem stick. But still… Great work Chaos!
Question: Does anyone know how to play ISO thru usb on Linux??? I’ve searched but cannot find anything.
Will it be dangerous to flash with Devhook 0.46 if I already have used X-Flash and Harleyg custom firmware? I read at PSP updates that it would be…
Would be really nice to hear some opinions on this, as Devhook begun to lag after I changed from Sandisk to Sony mem stick.
Thanks!
Referring back to 1st post, is that you mz? from cheatsync/D & C inc.?
afer flashing, the dumpt firmwres required on the ms or not
Hello all. I have few problems if anyone is kind to help me out. I just got my PSP 2.71 and I want to install Devhook 0.46.
I tryed Ultimate installer 0.46, putted my memory stick into my notebook, installed devhook 0.46 on it, removed memory stick, putted it into PSP and tryed to run devhook that I see under Game and nothing, I get always this error: This game cannot be started. The data is corrupted.
Anyone knows what I did wrong, any clues what to do to get it working. I would really apreciate some help.
Thanks in advance.
@ MKDART

You need kernel mode access. v2.71 does not have that. Only fw v1.50 does. If you had, say a fw prior to v2.70 (1.00-2.6/compatible motherboard) you could attempt a downgrade to fw v1.5. Sorry, but you simply cannot use this, dude.
Oh oh I see hehe stupid me. So if I understand right. If I have FW2.71 I can not run devhook and run .iso files. Will that be possible soon? Is there any avaible downgraders from 2.71 to 1.50?
Thanks again I apreciate it.
Sorry mate, afaik there is no way to downgrade, neither should you hold your breath about a fix I think. I returned my first 2.71 PSP as it couldn’t run any homebrew.
got this working fine but is there a risk in bricking your psp when loading up different firmwares and then returning back to 1.5 anh how do you run iso files on a 1.5 psp
Read ChaosZero’s tutorial. Explains everything.
Can someone help me out
i need to used the iso compresser prog
but how much can u compress it for the game to run well and in wicht format do i put em wich one is better PLEASE HELP ME
polskymurillo@hotmail.com
or mail me link to a tutorial about iso compressing ty
if you can use it an any way you better. works freaken flawless yea you gatta learn a little bit to use all the features, but its worth it it dosent just trick the psp into thinking its another firmware its compleatly converted to it this is a god send…..sniff sniff lol
can i run 2.01 and 2.50 and more fw on devhook?
omg just got a iso folder off limwire stuck it in the iso folder and thats it, it runs baby oh yes just downloaded need for speead most wanted lovin my new 1.5 psp
yep u can run many frimwares
hello
i am using dev hook .46
now i what to compress some 1gig iso games because i only have 1 gig card
what are cso and dax i know there are the compressed iso but is one better that the other???
and there are dif level or compression 1-9
wich one i should used and wich level is to much i dont wanna loose to much quality so whats a good lv???
i am using danny kay compression tool.
so if someone could help me out mail me
polskymurillo@hotmail.com
or either give me link or page for iso compression tutorials or anything that could help me with iso compressions
ty so much!!
I compress mine to cso. I think you have to use a different loader than devhook to run dax compressed files. But I’m not positive as I’ve never tried it. Compression level 9 is the highest compression rate for cso files. I think dax compression is a little smaller but not much.
I flashed the settings and stuff on the psp and i can assure u, it works like a charm.
I use harleyg’s custom fw and a number of other mods, all of which didnt affect the flash to the least.
Just keep that AC plug on and theres nothing to fear.
ps. u get increased speed almost everywhere + u keep ur settings always with u.
Recommended.
what exactly is the use of devhook
are they to much compressed with level 9 or no quality loss?
@vicecity.
Devhook is a fw emulator. It allows u to load a fw right off ur mem stick without writing on ur psps internal memory where the actual fw is installed. ie u can load 2.71 on 1.5 psp. This lets u play new games and use stuff like the internet browser not available in 1.5
polsky use 9, its the best option. u wont notice quality loss
i always use 9 ;)
@lexis,thanks
or for the post i did before
yes dax is a tit smaller that cso
dev hook dosent read dax so u better of with cso
yes u can compress to level 9 with out quality loss
thanks for the help guys!!!
OMG METAL GEAR DIGITAL NOVEL HERE I COME !!!
Sorry guys, am new here. My FW is currently 2.6, am I able to use this DevHook installer? Will it harm my psp?
gately fisrt downgrade using easy 2.6 -1.5 downgrader
after that yes u can use dev hook
and now is doesent harm ne thing
but read everything when u downgarde if not well donw yes your psp will be brick
I cant get 2.6 to work with the auto-installer. I installed 4.6 first and then went back and installed 2.6 firmware for it too, but when i try to boot up as 2.6 it freezes and the psp shuts off. But 2.7 still works fine.
where can you get cso compressor?
u get it with dev hook download
doesnt matter got it works great
@ gatley
as long as you dont have ta-082 or whatver it is mother board or ic60061 on the inside it should work fine, if you had a factory 2.6 psp it will work because my psp was a 2.6 facotry and now im on 1.5 but its up to you if you want to take the risk of bricking to downgrade your psp i did and its great!
why does the bleach custom pack doesn’t work for me? when it starts and the logo psp appears, it freezes, and it’s quite annoying, any1 with this same problem?
I just installed DevHook 0.46 and flashed the files to the internal memory(I used the ChaosZero’s tut just to be safe) and it worked perfectly. The internet and games seem to really load faster. Cool
Also, robs1968, Thanks for the thing about removing the sound file, I had the program but never even thought about it. Even icons are simple to change.
Yay!
btw i know this has nuthing to do with this but get the game gangs of london for psp off like torrentspy. its such a good game. works with devhook to lol
thanks i can’t wait till they emulate 2.8
can anyone send tell me where i can get iso’s?
did they ever fis the fact that you cannot save rss feeds?
you cant save rss feeds? is this true??
unreal bit of kit
huh?
what are you trying to say luke?
Does this work with Japanese PSPs?
i cant start devhook, it says its corrupted. can anyone help me my e-mail is uglordnes@yahoo.com
Thanks for the help, went research on how to downgrade. Have checked that mine is not ta-082 and my factory FW is 2.5. But i need to have old version of gta in order to downgrade. Think it’s hard to get it in singapore…
i have tried both versions full and simple
both have all working ok
exept that the browser gets stuck at optaining ip adress in both version and it seems worse at 333mhz
does anyone got it working????please4 help me out if u can
ps havent tried saving rss
@iso
you can rip isos w/ umddaxdumper ;-)
if anyone is still reading comments on this thing i have aquestion: i bought my psp in thailand but now in america i cant get any movies (that i paid for) to work… is there any way to change or bypass the regional settings. im running 1.5 fw with this device hook
oh and i forgot, my email is batman_247@hotmail.com. and no im not asian.
i love playing those new iso such as dragonball Z and tekken thanks i would never buy any psp games never again. just have to love the hookdevice thankyou guyz, i know you work so hard on this thanks once again
Brilliant. This is mint. Many thanks
Only problem i have is that the internet wont work. can anyone help ?
pyorl: I think it works, but the browser tries to open a page that isn’t there. Try another URL like google or whatever. I stuck on this too till I figured out.
Muyfa,
will try
cheers
if anybody is still reading these i installed devhook but when i try to use fw2.7 i get a corrupt thing with 13 different languages can someone tell me what i am doin wrong (it worked fine for me wen i used the old version of devhook
try using the uninstall program left on your memory card when you installed the first time and then try to reinstall it yt
The internet does work you guyz dont know what the yah doing
@batmanishguy i did what u told me to but it still does the same thing. i am pretty sure i am doin everything okay cuz i used the ultimate installer
PLZ IF SOMEONE KNOWS WHY I AM GETTING A “SETTING CORRUPTED PRESS “O” IN 13 DIFFERENT LANGUAGES PLZ CAN U TELL ME (i did eventually press “O” but still it never fixed it)
@yt:
Ok, wut that meens is that a file from either the flash0 or flash1 directories is missing. I recommend reinstalling the firmware….manually, it’s not hard at all, just download DevHook 0.44, it comes with the 2.71 firmware dump, all u do is extract wut ever is in the .rar file that u downloaded and grab the ‘dh’ folder in it then put it where the other ‘dh’ folder is, and when it askes u to over write it say yes, and it should be fixed, but u don’t need the EBOOT from DevHook 0.44, just the ‘dh’ folder.
Hope it helps dude ;)
I installed the basic 0.46 w/ v2.71 firmware and then went back to add the screenshot mod, but that doesn’t seem to work. is anyone else having problems getting the screen shot capture to work?
is it me or is this version have errors
my controls are screwed, maybe i did something wrong.
i downloaded this cause the other devhooks won’t emulate ‘tekken 5′
please i need a uber- psp person to help me
email me: astro5_5000@hotmail.com
please take a little time to help the newbies :)
@squidman - THANKS!!! WORKS PERFECT!!!
NOW I CAN FLASH THIS THING
Nice one! I was able to install it with no issues and I am now enjoying some cool CSO’s that I couldn’t play before in my PSP 1.50! Thanks!
Can’t wait for you to do this again for fw 2.80!
srry to ask stupid questions but i am a noob
okay so i finally got the 2.71 fw dump, but now i can’t flash the rom- when i do what it says on Chaos Zero’s tutorial my psp says it is flashing the stuff but when i start to run 2.71fw i don’t think it has even flashed because everthing is going slower and accoring to what people have said it should be going faster. (E.X- i go to the internet browser to start it up and it takes 7 seconds to start also i see the memory stick light blinking) if it has been saved to the XMB it shouldn’t be reading the ms, right?
PLZ IF SOMEONE COULD HELP IT WOULD BE NICE
@yt:
is there a special option saying to run it from the flash? I haven’t flashed it because i honestly fear the bricking, so just wait for someone who has flashed it and gotten it working to respond. Try experimenting and trying different options to see if it works.
@squidman- there is no special option asking u whether u want to run the fw from the flash, but i think i will just stick with version .45 and hopefully after all his legal troubles are over booster will make a newer version of devhook
oh yeah thanks for helping me ur a star
hi,
im having a few things go wrong first off i cant save most of my games and secondly the internet browser dosnt work could somebody help by replying on here or/and to properbling@hotmail.co.uk
@dom
r u running 2.7fw on the 333mhz clock
@dom:
first off, the web browser wus created to run at the default speed (222/111MHz), so if u set it to run at 333/166MHz, it will crash. some odd ball reason, can’t fix that tho.
and ur games not saving……i don’t know wut to do about that, try manually reinstalling the firmware, i have had no problems at all and i manually put it there. Just ask if u don’t know how to manually install it with out this hand dandy notebook, er i meen app
it seems ppl are having more problems with the auto installer…….something to look into Chaos Zero
yer i do have some games that work but the browser still dosent and the psp is set at 222 unless it comes preloaded at 333 with this firmware if you understand
@dom:
If it were to come preloaded at 333MHz, u wuld be able to change it.
I honestly recommend manually reinstalling the firmware, not using the installer to do so.
there really is something flawed in the auto installer cuz when i did it devhook would not emulate 2.71, but once i did it maually it worked fine , but no flahing
i got the games to save by using a ordinary card as i was using the datel4gb hard drive b4 but still no internet browser (i checked and i am running at 222)also could someone tell me how to get this to load up the 2.00 firmware
@dom:
did u try reinstalling the firmware manually, by just moving it from ur computer to ur PSP? Not with the installer.
Way to go, u figured out ur game save problem!
to put 2.00 Firmware, u need the dump for it, then u need to put it in the folder “x:\dh\200″ tell it to overwrite any existing files.
P.S.
u can get the 2.71 dump from DevHook .044 (i think), then u can just follow wut i told u to do to put 2.00 on the memorystick to reinstall 2.71 and mostlikely get it working
ok ill give it ago
oh by the way whats the program for dumping 2.00
and thanks for your help
ok i got a 2.00 dump of the out folders so where do i put them
@dom:
u dumped it with the devhook firmware installer? it should already be in the correct place. it should be in the folders like this “x:\dh\200″ so the folders for the 2.00FW (flash0 and flash1) should be in that 200 folder.
the numbers represent the firmware number with out the decimal point.
WHEN WILL 2.80 EMULATION COME =(
@pls stop cusin’:
After the legal issue is solved…kay?
Yo, this Worked Like a charm Thanx To Booster and Chaos Zero!!!!
WOOO, rare occurance, u can come back and ask for help if u need it :)
internet needs to be at 222 NOT 333 to work..
thanks
hey peeps, i tried this version DH 0.46 auto installer, but after installing my iso files wouldn’t run. I had to revert back to DH 0.43 in order to play my games !
Can someone help !?
@slider527:
ppl have had a little too much trouble with this installer.
Just download devhook 0.44 it comes with the dump for 2.71, then put that on ur memorystick, then download DevHook 0.46 so now u’ll have a fresh and working 2.71 firmware dump rarin’ to go, and an EBOOT without any flaws.
If u don’t know how to do the manuall install, just come back and aks ;)
If i knew how to program, I culd prolly help out more and make a installer that wuld prolly work better, but i can’t say that, good job Chaos.
@Squidman
thnx dude, i’ll try that…
have a nice day!
I don’t know anything bout programming either! :D
when i set it 2 333mhz…it crashes at the GREETING PAGE….any1 aso occurs dis??
@caltex:
u meen the screen that says “Sony Playstation Portable”? set it to 222MHz, it requires a UMD to run when set ot 333MHz, but u don’t need a UMD when it’s set to 222MHz
But if u start it at 222MHz u can hit HOME+START and change the CPU Clock speed to 333MHz anyways.
now that i’ve helped the question that u asked, evryone experiences that……it’s not normally ment to run at a faster speed, so it crashes
hi. my psp is v2.71. do i need to downgrade it in order for me to play iso games that i downloaded? thanks
