New DevHook Coming Soon?!

greg | September 15, 2006

Now now, don’t nut in your underwear just yet — this quote below is to be treated as pure speculation for the time being…

Great news! We’ve been notified that Booster is hard at work on a new release of Devhook, we might get lucky next week but a confirmed release date is not available yet. The grand plan is to release Devhook one day as custom firmware, but it’s unclear when this will happen, the next release should feature firmware v2.8 support only. It’s good to hear Booster is alive and well.

Again, speculation as of the current moment, at least until some hard evidence is provided. For now — just spreading the word. Good lookin’ out.

@ #7
What this means, considering my theory, is that it should be similar to what the physical modchip does hopefully.

custom firmware like Dark Alex´s proof of concept or that dual boot one, so it could be that this will load up directly to devhook without the need to run configurator no more and such, but not sure how the features will work, like changig from iso, cso, umd, and the .pbp settings., maybe you´ll have to flash it, and it will load up, mb it will all be from MS, who knows???

#20–
Are you stupid? What the article meant was that Devhook will EMULATE 2.8, this still needs to be run on a 1.5 or 1.0 firmware PSP!
And as far as ‘Custom Firmware Devhook’ that means it will replace the PSP firmware all together, so you would no longer have a 1.5 or 2.0 or what ever, you would have a DEVHOOK PSP, capable of emulateing ANY of the current firmwares and it will boot straight into DEVHOOK instead of XMB.

I think the day ‘Custom Firmware Devhook’ is released will be a huge leap for everyone in the PSP world

@16
Personally, I think the biggest day in PSP history was when the 2.5/2.6 downgrader was released. :)

I was so happy back then but also feel sorry for all those who bricked their PSP…

I think you must be pretty stupid, ‘cos your the only one that didn’t understand what it meant, and if your ’stuck on 2.8′ you must have stupidly updated to that,, otherwise you could be using the 2.71 downgrader!

When will people learn DON’T UPGRADE!!!

Now this is GREAT news. This almost compares to the time when i was in a hotel at 2am with a loud banging comming from the door and a voice roaring “Boscawen police, open up”. (i was living down in VA at the time she was in NH–long drive) I’ll talk to my girl jenny, and see if she’ll give you an early b-day present :Þ

Comment by Snarg
2006-09-15 16:49:01

I agree with 2 things.

1)Why 2.8 and not 2.81?

2)Number #1 doesn’t matter because it’s probably not even true. lol

Good News? i love u psp hackers

 
Comment by Snarg
2006-09-15 18:38:30

It is about 99.999999% likely that you will have to dump 2.8(1) fw yourself yes. Think about it first of all, it was said that 2.8(1) uses a signature check thats based on the PSP it’s installed on. Not to mention that there’s no way that Booster is going to risk distributing copyrighted material again.
Which means if this news is true, it would explain the whole custom firmware idea. No need to distribute the 1.5 (not that we don’t all already have it), and since he couldn’t distribute a generic 2.8(1) and have it work for everyone anyways, that means he’s not doing anything that would get him in trouble. All good for him, all good for us (until the hundreds of people come asking how to use the psar dumper)

What the hell is wrong with asking how to use a dumper or how to make things work?? I am a newbie on the PSP front and I don’t fully understand these things yet..so don’t be a bitch and gripe about others’ lack of knowledge.

 
Comment by Philippecr
2006-09-15 22:49:53

@46. Booster never distribute any copyright item. (exept the 0.43fix, I think tats an accident) All the package that comes with firmware is not made by him.

Wohoo! You’re alive afterall! Way to go! Booster! hope to see your good work!

Let hope BOOSTER THE ROCK will release 2 version of this devhook. 1 with custom firmware devhook that will be flash into psp and the other is just a usual devhook in ms_root so user will have more choices to choose if they dun wanna mess with their flash.

40(ChaosZero) – hope he will release another “ultimate devhook installer” for people who are not familiar or new user.

You guys f*** rock !

Well if Chaos Zero does decide to make an installer (which I’m sure he will) he should stop encoding keyloggers into it. Unless he’s trying to catch a newb “slipping”. ;)

What? All I see in your post, is “blah blah blah, I’m a dirty goat blower”

90% of the people that come here asking questions in hordes after a new release don’t bother to read the instructions that come with a package before they come here asking everything that’s already been answered. I’m betting that you’ll be (or have already been) one of them. aaahhaahhaaaa

^(For others that need enlightment)

Tsk tsk, shame on you Chaos Zero. We thought we could trust you! *cries profusely.*

Eh, I don’t need an installer anyway. I find it interesting installing devhook manually.

yo 60…ask your god father dark_alex to dump your fw b4 u even think about devhook. currently all downgraders released r 4 normal pcb board not tat doomed ta-082.

^ [+] I mean, enjoy installing the flash0 + 1 manually.

@Hai

Is the the firmware of your TA-082’s motherboard fw1.5? No.

Is there an eloader for your dilemma? No. Or maybe not yet.

And to answer of your question: No.

when this devhook comes out will u be able to use it on a v2.80?….because some people are saying it will only emulate v2.80 which one is it?

 
Comment by Snarg
2006-09-16 13:35:19

To make it clear.
It’s supposed to be a custom firmware, which means the installer needs to run in kernel mode, which can’t be done in 2.8(yet)
’nuff said.

 
Comment by UltraII 4GB'er
2006-09-16 19:02:45

Hey I was wondering if the new 2.8 firmware would support the Sandisk Ultra II 4.0 GB pro duo stick? Because I’m having trouble running it on the 2.71.

 
Comment by Snarg
2006-09-16 19:05:03

It’s possible that it may work properly on 2.81, but just remember that if you upgrade to 2.81 it’s not likely that you’ll ever be able to play homebrew, or downgrade.

 
Comment by UltraII 4GB'er
2006-09-16 19:11:47

I’m talking about the upcoming DevHook Snarg, if it would support the Sandisk Ultra II 4.0 GB pro duo stick

 
Comment by Snarg
2006-09-16 21:58:42

If it ends up being a 2.8 version then I seriously doubt it, if it ends up being a 2.81, then that would be more likely, but not for sure, you’d have to find someone who actually has a 2.81 and a Sandisk Ultra II 4.0 GB pro duo stick to answer that question, and I really doubt you’ll find one around here.

That’s kind of like asking if it will support a certain font. Nobody can answer that until it’s released and trys it.

2006-09-17 15:06:51

Umm, i am just a little confused, but i thought Booster had received a stop and decist order from sony in regards to firmware distribution, and the devhook project itself, am i mistaken?

 
Comment by the_end_is_near
2006-09-17 19:34:28

it was just about the reboot.bin file indevhook .43 and distributing the decrypted files of the updates is illagal so there will be no “ultimant installer” with 2.8/2.81 in it youll have to get the decrypter and updates ur self
