Update: Chaos Zero has updated his Ultimate Installer to v1.1.1 - this includes a minor fix which corrects WiFi while running at 333MHz. The download link below has been updated to reflect v1.1.1.
The standalone fix can also be found in the forum thread.
The easiest way to install DevHook - no questions asked! Connect your PSP via USB, download the Windows executable below - run it, select your options & install! In mere minutes you’ll be ready to emulate FW 2.XX!
ChaosZero’s Ultimate Installer includes some additional goodies:
And of course if you run into problems along the way you can always resort to ChaosZero’s DevHook tutorial.
Download: Ultimate Installer v1.1.1
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???

@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.

You may also pick up just the fix in the thread.

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.

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
