nope not posssible.
What would be the point of running it through devhook anyway?

So i dont have to flash it,
and it would be like runing 2.71 through devhook "only better"
it must be possible,? i dont see why not

well its possible but you will have to recode devhook a bit.

no offence an i dont mean to flame or anything but
1) How do you know 1.5 is 'the best' if you havent tried 2.71 SE?
2) Why bother trying 2.71 SE if you think 1.5 is 'the best'?

One thing to remember is that you will probably lose some performance by devhooking it.
I recently installed reverse devhook on a ta-082 and noticed a loss of a few frames per second on the emu's

Okay, well anyone know a way to do this?

and jak, its the best.
lol



so there you go all '1.50 is better cause iR Shell, ISO loaders and flash modification homebrew work on 1.50 but not 2.71 SE-A'

ir shell does work, always did, people just to lazy to make it work themselves

2.71 SE-A may not have been but 2.71 SE-B IS an ISO loader

We now have nearly as many flash mod tools as 1.50 (if not more) including X-Flash (yay) and themePSP (if 1.50 kernal games are in game folder)


that post is really old from way back when 2.71 SE-A came out, i could change it but cant be bothered

okay, it looks good etc but i couldnt be bothered splitting all the folders etc.

Call it a draw?

I too, would like to emulate 2.71 SE through DevHook. It would be the best of both worlds :D !!!

I think 2.71 SE-B" is the best because it is better than 1.50 has no custom wallpaper stuff in it and you get all the features of a 2.71 and Homebrew.

How safe is flashing 2.71 SE though? Does it have as good of a success rate as the generic downgrader? I really don't want to try something I can do without if it puts my precious flash0 in danger.

It dose have custom wallpapers
and if you have the knowledge you could keep loads on your psp and swap the around with ir shell etc then flash them

No, SE-B wins. end of story

If homebrew is an issue I have every one of my programs in working order on SE-B (Maybe 25 or so). Just IM me if you want something.

Maybe I'll also revamp my homebrew list with all the homebrew that is 1.5 and 2.71 SE-B compatible.

You don't need to split the folders, you can just change the settings so that the Game folder is used in 1.5 kernel mode. This 2.71 SE B firmware is already alot better than 1.5 and it is being updated and getting better all of the time.

well... you still need to edit them. At least I do on my psp.

quick question.. Say I have a collection of homebrew for SE-B in the 1.0 EBOOT format that are modified with the EBOOT fixer, if I K-Exploit them, will they run on a 1.5 or must it be an un-modified EBOOT?

i still say that 1.5 is the "golden firmware"

i dont care if people flame me for saying that...but it seem to me all your doing is just taking one little step out of doing somthing you already can do...

why try to fix somthing that aint broke.....

until i see somthing on the psp that can only be used with 2.71 SE... ill stick with my 1.5 psp :D

Now, as for the devhooking the 2.71 SE, ive tried it...but it seems not able to do it...( since its using the 1.5 bootstrap onto it )

im currently looking into making devhook reading 2.71 SE firmware...but havent found a way as of yet...

anyway

Thanks for Everything,

I prefer like 2.71SE, but i prefer 1.50 since it can be customized more than 2.71SE and every custom gameboot out work on it.

Well if you say so, 1.5 = Original Golden Firmware
2.71 SE = Alternative Golden Firmware

1.5 is best for people who use their psp for homebrew and the only game they own is GTA:LCS (due to eloader), but 2.71 SE is best for people that use devhook a lot cause they own a lot of comercial games as well as homebrew.
My opinion is both are good in their own way,but people thint that the firmware their on is better

i see the point pspdemon has. why fiddleling around with 2.71se and your flash when all you want from your psp is working with 1.5
i just have 6 homebrews on my stick and devhook is one of them, it does all that i want.
i dont use the functions that were introduced with fw 2.71 and the newer ones that sony developed recently. and im sure that devhook is my killer app and it will be for a looong time.
so for for me the computing uber rule applys: NEVER CHANGE A RUNNIG SYSTEM

I don't know, cause i've been emulatin' 1.5 for a while, and so far, it looks hot, I mean all homebrew+ having to load devhook every time you wanna load a UMD, or close to all homebrew+ no need for devhook. Dunno, gonna have to emulate 2.71 SE-b to find out....

What homebrew doesn't run on 2.71 SE-B3? I have yet to see any.

All 2.71SE is a PSP with 1.5 that doesn't need devhook to run the newer games. There is no major difference between someone who has 1.5 w/devhook and someone using 2.71SE (except the 2.71SE user doesn't need devhook).

I guess it's just a matter of preference and loyalty for some.

2.71 SE-B'' is simply the best. All my homebrew works and there are no problems with the firmware.

All homebrew works on 1.5

It's good, I like it. I'd recommend it, unless you want all homebrew supported.

If some homebrew shows as corrupt (where in fact they are not) on 2.71 SE-B'', try applying the patched param.sfo used in irShell but change the title to the name of the application you want to use. Use PBP Unpacker to do that. I got PSPset 0.9 working that way.
