actually i apolagize; my bad, i just looked at my files in devhook and the reboot.bin was not there my bad

hey metaphorically-couldnt we just dump this 2.80 firmware into the "200" folder and just launch it from an older firmware? I heard that that works and did with 2.50 before that devhook version was released or whatnot.

**YourStillWithMe** · September 7th, 2006, 02:23

i tried it using the 2.00 selection, i think everything was in the right place ipl files in the psp root/dh/ipl folder, font in flash 0 along with the vsh folder and all in there, i checked using the 2.71 firmware to check the placement of things and it all clicked to me when i booted it up i didnt brick my psp or anything so it probably wont do that to you guys give it a whirl i still think its possible try it with 2.71 firmware in the devhook .46 menu thats the best bet because that encryption is obviously the closest thing to 2.80

I don´t think that´s going to work. Booster has got to tweak it first. But don´t worry. No rush. There´s no games that require 2.8 right now.
As soon as we need 2.8, we´ll have it emulated on devhook. Trust me

ya cuz as it is, 2.71 is buggy as it is when booting up w/ a umd in the drive....tweaks are definatly needed.

but im still curious, has anyone tried replacing the 271 contents w/ the 2.80 dump in the dh folder?

wow this is good news now all we have to do is wait for a devhook update so we can emulate 2.8 iv been waiting for this one bcause there are a few games i want and i kinda think they woll need 2.8 to be played on my psp well now that its been decrypted i have to sit here and wait for a devhook update but good work on this
