Guide to installing 2.71 SE

Latest version of SE at time of writing this guide = 2.71 SE-B"

Things you'll need
-1.50 PSP
There are enough downgrading guides already so i'll let you find that if you don't have a 1.50 PSP already

-2.71 Special Edition - Revision B custom firmware (http://dax.st/271_SEB.RAR)
-2.71 Special Edition - Revision B' custom firmware (http://dax.st/271_SEB2.RAR)
-2.71 Special Edition - Revision B" custom firmware (http://dax.st/seb3.rar)
(If any of the above links dont work you can find the files at http://dax.st)

-1.50 Update Eboot
-2.71 Update Eboot
(You can get both of the above at http://www.psp-hacks.com)


Instructions
1. Extract all the zip/rar archives to a memorable location (like your desktop)
2. Open the 271_SEB folder and copy the PSP folder from inside the NEWINSTALL folder to the root of your memorystick
3. In your PSPs GAME folder you should have a folder called 'seupdmaker', you want to rename the 1.50 update eboot from EBOOT.PBP to 150.PBP and the 2.71 update eboot from EBOOT.PBP to 271.PBP, then put both the 150.PBP and 271.PBP files into the seupdmaker folder
4. Run the SE Update Maker on your PSP
- After running the update maker it will check to make sure the DXAR file is valid NOTE:IF IT JUST SHUTS OFF WITHOUT CHECKING THE FILE YOU WILL NEED TO RUN THE UPDATE MAKER UNTIL IT FINISHES (finishes = checks the DXAR file then says auto restart in 5 seconds, or something along those lines)
5. Copy the DATA.DXAR file on your memory stick from the seupdmaker folder to the 271seflasher folder. Also you should make a folder in the root of your memory stick called ISO
6. Run the 2.71 SE-B Installer on your psp, after it has finished it should restart your PSP
7. Open the 271_SEB2 folder and copy the 'PSP' folder inside it to the root of your memorystick
8. Run the 2.71 SE-B2 Update on your PSP
9. Open the seb3 folder and copy the 'PSP' folder inside it to the root of your memorystick
10. Run the 2.71 SE-B3 Update on your PSP
11. You can now delete all of the extra folders and files created on your PSP (e.g. 'ISO' folder, '271seflasher' folder, DATA.DXAR file, etc) and delete all the folders/zips/rars from your PC EXCEPT the 271_SEB folder and the 1.50 update eboot

12. If you ever need to degrade your PSP back to 1.50 cause you dont like 2.71 SE or you end up bricking it, enter recovery mode (hold R on startup) and activate USB
13. Open the 271_SEB folder on your PC and copy the RECOVERY folder inside the flasher for recovery folder to the GAME folder on your memorystick
14. Rename the 1.50 update eboot from EBOOT.PBP to UPDATE.PBP and place it inside the RECOVERY folder
15. Disable USB, highlight the option saying run program at PSP/GAME/RECOVERY/EBOOT.PBP, and press X

Good guide jak66

[jak66]

yea, it helps when you did it this morning cause your psp doesnt have sound without headphones plugged in, i thought something went wrong with my psp firmware or something, but it seems to be a hardware fault, or its just dusty in there and thinks that there is already a pair of headphones pluged in

[Gizmo356]

Yay thnx it work i got recovery working to its just annoying to have corrupt icons

[splodger15]

You can hide corrupt icons on 1.5

[jak66]

yay, it worked, this deserves its own post for people having problems

splodger, why is it you find 1.5 better?

[Gizmo356]

yeah thats what im saying sounds like you keep putting it down anyway just installed the in game mp3 player mod and its nice not to have to use devhook

[splodger15]

yay, it worked, this deserves its own post for people having problems

splodger, why is it you find 1.5 better?

I dont know

I think its to do with the fact about sorting all homebrew into folders

People have there different likes

[Cloudhunter]

Well, if you have SE-B you can change the GAME folder to be for 1.50 homebrew instead, which I find way better, and easier.

You can do that on 2.71SE-B (and any revision of it as well) through the recovery menu, it's built in under configuration or advanced settings (cant remember which one). And just like 1.5 it hides most corrupt icons.

Not having to use devhook (unless you wanted to) makes it worth getting.

or put the homebrew in the GAME150 folder of your memory stick.
