Ever since Team M33 released its own Custom Firmware for FW3.51 PSPs, it's been rather interesting at the QJ offices. PSP fans sent us tons of tips, and at the same time, we've also been getting tips of newly compatible programs meant for the new CFW.

In this case, Dodswm sent us a tip about something he did to UFox's PSP Content Manager v1.5 He's made it compatible for use with Team M33's new firmware, allowing people to use this trusted application with the new firmware that's going around the homebrew scene these days.

For those who haven't heard of it though, UFox's PSP Content Manager is an application that allows you to sort the contents of your PSP. It'll let you rearrange the order of your movies, music, and homebrew, as well as any other files you happen to have lying around on your PSP.

Feel free to try the application. Just remember to check the readme before using the app. Enjoy!

Happy with DevHook v0.50 but want to keep previous versions of DevHook on your PSPs? Nah, it's not being greedy,  it's being practical - after all, older DevHooks do have better compatibility with older PSP games. And dodswm knows this, hence he granted your wishes yesterday with his hex-edited DevHooks for 2.71, v0.45, and 0.46 - collectively known as DevHook alternative package.

Now, we have an update to this dodswm-creation that allows PSP owners to run DevHook v0.50 and 0.45 plus DevHook for 2.71 and DevHook 0.46 on one mem stick. This latest version has the following changes:

• Text on eboots have been changed so that displays on the PSP show which DevHook folder is in use
• Modded devhook firmware installers were added
• DevHook for 2.71 has been fixed to emulate 1.5
• Put the lot in one download package

Now if you're new to this sort of thing and don't know exactly what needs to be done, read up on installation instructions and warnings here. Or better yet, click on the "Readme" file before doing anything else. Good luck and enjoy this latest offering!

Getting Booster's DevHook 0.50 on your PSP to play 2.8x games was the present in the stocking that blew everyone's chimneys away. But let's just say that old presents should not be thrown away, too. We're talking about older versions of DevHook here. One potential reason is because the older DevHooks have better compatibility with older PSP games.

Makes sense. Hence, wraggster of DCEmu announces dodswm's hex-edited DevHook for 2.71, and DevHooks 0.45 and 0.46. With these, PSP owners can boot DevHook 0.50 for 2.8x off the Stick, and (for example) DevHook for Dark_Alex's 2.71 SE-C off the flash. One even has THREE DevHooks happily playing in his PSP. Backwards compatibility in a flash - literally, which means you might want to be careful going about with this. Here's what dodswm has to say about that process:

Note: When installing the firmware onto your mem stick, DO NOT overwrite any of the files from this package, or it will not work. Just do a normal devhook install, and the devhook folder on the mem stick root is "HD" not "DH".

The complete package at the download link below includes the hex-edited DevHooks for 2.71, 0.45, and 0.46, PLUS a copy of Chunglam's DevHook Launcher/VSHEX Mod 1.65c that has been modified to use the "LM" folder on the Memory Stick root, what with all these modded DevHooks to load and all. Let's just hope everyone can keep all these numbers sorted out.

(BTW, the single DL link below contains all FOUR file sets in individual ZIP files. Like we said: hope you can keep the numbers sorted out. The individual ZIP file names are your friend in this case.)
