It seems that Booster doesn't like to sit idle for even a little while. Just a few days after Devhook 0.51, he has released v0.51.01. Following the general standards, the small increment in the version number means that there's only a few minor changes. And I'll list them out here:
  • 3.02 folder added, which means official support, and the ability to keep both 3.01 and 3.02 at the same time.
  • Few flash1 bugfixes.
  • Updates to the menu.

Again, even though we'd like you to update to the latest version, there isn't much which is pushing me to do so. In any case, we would still recommend you to update to the latest version. The update procedure is simple enough; just copy over the folders in MS_ROOT folder to the root of your Memory Stick, replacing any file that it asks about. Finally, here's the download.

 » Well working guide

Here's what to do if you don't want to flash config files:


- Download: DH v0.5101,Eboot v3.02.pbp, DH FW installer 3.02
- Place first all of the DH v.051 in the MS_Root that will be: FMB,DH,PSP
- Place the v3.02 eboot.pbp in the MS_Root and call it EBOOT.PBP VERY IMPORTEND.
- Place the two folders from the DH FW installer v3.02 in the map: x(that's your PSP)/PSP/Game/
- Enable USB mode and go to you MS onder Game and open the DH FW installer 3.02 it will load than press 'CROSS' it will make the files compateble with DH.
- When that's done you can go to DH v.051 and load it set your FW to 3.02(MS or MS+Flash 1). WITH THIS PROGRAM YOU DON'T HAVE TO FLASH CONFIG FILES FROM DH TO YOUR FLASH1:D.
And press start it will load and you see everything works fine accept there was a button swap with O,X but than can you change with a editor that's avaieble at the forums it is called DH 0,51 REG hope I helped you guys enough.

 » WTF

I have been reading all the news about DevHook. I just cant figure this out! Why is it that everyone is working hard on keeping alive 1.5 when 3.2 is the thing out there. why isnt anyone helping out the noobs that have bought a new system and dont have a way to downgrade. All i ever hear from the homebrew users that have fw 1.5 is it our fault for upgrading. I thought that we are here to help each other out? So who is the group of people that are working on the fix for 3.x? where can a person go to get information on whats being done about this instead of hearing a bunch of wankers wine and put down noobs that want the same thing as the people with fw 1.5. Im sure that the ones that have fw 1.5 would feel the same way as US noobs if they had fw 3.x!


   Re: WTF as well (Unregistered) - 2006-12-08
 » ?

Of course everything is for 1.5....its actually a workable format. Maybe people should not buy a brand new psp then. You can get a used 1.5 for no more than a new 3.2
Its gonna be quite a while for downgraders for new systems. 1.5 has and probably will always be the magic number. If someone wants to have homebrew stuff, then u bought the wrong one.

   Re: GameLordOmega - 2006-12-08
 » Calm down.

First, people listen more if you don't refer to them as wankers.

Second, it is not our responsibility that your PSP is version 3.x. If you were interested in putting homebrew on your PSP, more thought and research might have been necessary if you wanted a 1.5.

Third, there is currenty no downgrader for 3.x, so you're basically being too impatient. The developers will release it in their own time, and that's not for you to decide. That's like say, you're at a restaurant and the food's taking a while, so you're getting impatient and angry. People are trying to help with the 3.x and such, but it's not easy and won't be done in two minutes.

   Re: BigNooB (Unregistered) - 2006-12-08
 » Your Right

Yes your right. But instead of everyone putting each other down why not make a area on here for the noobs to ask the stupid questions. Give us a little hope letting us know that some one is working on this issue.

Thanks

 » FTW

***** The Wankers i tell you what...Little do you know i'm sure there are hundreds (or 4) of the 1337est psp owners in the world working on a way to get all you noobs to stop complaining. You should have been more aware BEFORE buying your psp...it took me 4 purchase and returns to find a 1.5 when 2.0 was just released tofix the homebrew capabilities and I decided it was time to find me one. And it took what 6 months for the first downgrader to come out that went from 2.0 to 1.5. 3.x just came out what 3 weeks ago and the quickest learning about the firmware happened on the 3.x series than any other firmware! So why not stop *****ing and figure out how to do it yourself! yeah...i didn't think you could.

   Re: BigNooB (Unregistered) - 2006-12-08
 » LoL

Well i guess your right! Im not a coder just wanted some information. I didnt learn about homebrew tell after i got the psp. My bag. But you proved a point here you cant code it either.

   Re: stfu (Unregistered) - 2006-12-08
 » quit *****ing

you sound as if there's no one doing anything for the higher firmwares. there are. just be patient. there was a time i could do nothing with my ta-082, but after time exploits were discovered enabling homebrew on my machine. plus the firmware that sony releases is in response to homebrew, patching up exploits that were previously discovered in past firmware releases. so it is difficult and definately takes time to hack them. if you're not happy with the progress then you try picking up a psp and hack it yourself

   Re: BigNooB (Unregistered) - 2006-12-08
 » Again your RIGHT!

Pure your suggestion is there anyone here that could point me in the right direction or how to hack the PSP. I guess he cant code it either

   Re: Kleptoone (Unregistered) - 2006-12-09
 » Dude

Dude, it took me all of a couple of hours to find out about the psp toolchain and cygwin in order to start working on psp homebrew. I'm telling you, finding ways to hack a system that has gone through countless revisions in order to prevent such a thing from taking place is not an easy thing to do. My buddy upgraded to 2.71 a while back before he found out about homebrew and I had to convince him for a month to not update his firmware. Lo and behold a dowgrader appeared through a tiff exploit and his patience payed off. Truth is, a downgrader will appear when life allows someone to put in the many man hours to find the cracks. Be patient, don't update, and maybe you'll get lucky. Thats all anyone can tell you. If you need a forum for that then make one.

   Re: akuma2099 - 2006-12-08
 » @bignoob

If you bothered to look in the forums you would find all the info you need for pretty much anything you want to do to your psp. But you can't do anything to your 3.0x PSP. So all you can do now is wait or just return it to where you got it from and then try and get one off e-bay that has 1.5 on it. Not trying to be mean or anything but it isn't very wise to come to website and insult the people that you are asking for help from. Just be calm about it and there may be a downgrader for your PSP one day but not anytime soon as there isn't even one for 2.8 yet. Your best bet would be to take my suggestion above and return it to the store and if you can't just return it to gamestop and get some money for it and go on e-bay to get a new one.

 » Why suggest updating?

If the previous versions work fine, why recommend the update? Its not a good thing to be the guinea pig for an unsupported application. Booster does great work, but updating just to have the latest version doesn't make too much sense. If you ask me, only update when a new version has features/bugfixes that you need.

That that's because of regional firmware differences.... I have Japanese 1.5 firmware on my PSP, and when I loaded 2.0+ on devhook, it changed (I think I was using US firmware...).

Otherwise it might have just switched after 1.5x... Anyone confirm this?

Gosh, I feel like I'm late for prom-

I started with 1.5 and have been enjoying all the
emulators like NES and SNES-

Then I haven't played my PSP for a long time..

My question is if this is what ables 1.5 PSP to play
games with higher fw like 2.8

I'm talking about playing actual UMD games.
I want to buy games but do not want to sacrifice
emulators.

Is this what enables your psp playing latest games with latest firmware while staying in 1.5?

You should be able to run games that require firmware above 1.5 by selecting UMD Disc or something similar when selecting the ISO... or at least, that's how I remember getting my sister's LocoRoco game to work.
