i was bored and fighting with my freind over whether or not to upgrade to 2.71se from my 1.5 then i had an idea!!! i was trying to instal 2.71se on devhook but i couldnt figure out how.... does anyone have any comment on how to or if this is even possible.... i really want 2.71se but i dont want to do all that writing to the flash to get there . thats why i think just using devhook would be a fun idea:)
not possible, unless you or your friend is a good mate of dark alex and can get him to mod devhook so it will work
so you are sure that it is completely not possible?
positive, many people have tried, and have deduced that the problem lies within the bootstrap, devhook would have to be modded to know what to do to emulate 2.71 SE
that is correct. :)Quote:

well, you cant update normally, if thats what you mean, but if you wanted to update to a higher firmware, or degrade to a lower firmware, then you can via recovery mode
Just install 2.71SE, set your hyomebrew to GAME instead of GAME271, and off you go.
You'll never look back.
You may think that Mike (as your sig is proof, 4 PSPs with SE installed), and i think it rules, but some people absolutly hate it (and some are scared to flash their PSP after their hard work of getting it to 1.5)
OT: I notice your modchip PSP is now spare parts...is it really that difficult to install (really stupid question that was, of course it is) or did you have an accident while trying to install it?
I was a complete 1.5 Evangelist until 2.71SE came out. There is nothing that would make me go back to 1.5 now - 2.71SE can run anything 1.5 can, except you no longer need to use kxploited eboots, so no corrupted icons. It can run alll games up to 2.71 and most 2.8+ umds.
To answer your other question, the iron I was using was using wasnt good enough or a fine enough tip so I've kinds abandoned the project until I get a finer tip and a better heat controlled soldering iron - at which point I'll repair the tracks and fix the board.
Yep same here, it really is the bestQuote:

for me, the SE-B" is almost perfect...it is missing the ability of being able to use a config file and additional prxs in the SYSTEM folder, as done in the 1.50 customs.
it is however the only problem, and im sure it is being worked on [i hope]

sorry guys, i dont believe that 2.71 SE is the best firmware.... i think its harleyg's. how can you beat it?
Hazzah!!! i now have 2.71 se B" thanks everyone.... your right this is much better.... i can now do stuff with the flash and if i screw it up.... i can use the recovery thing to fix it ...YES
