Quoted this a few times as it is the instructions that got me working. (The 4 .txt files is the stumbling block I think - read all below)

Note to all 2.71 SEC Users.

Note to all 2.71 SEC Users out there. This will work, I have confirmed it working this morning. If you have installed a previous version 0.50 especially you MUST remove all file from memory stick and also remove files in Flash_01 (do this through Devhook Flash Install menu.) Then try re-formatting your memory stick and following the instructions below, it will work believe me.
(Note to UK Users: I used the UK 3.01 Update to make the DATA.PSAR file, not sure if this make a difference.)
(2nd Note: When moving the F0 folder, DO NOT delete the files already in the kd folder (4 .txt files), they must stay in that folder. Copy them to your desktop and make sure they are put back in that folder on the Memory Stick. I did not do this first time round and it did not work.)

Devhook 0.51 Install Guide with 3.01

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a step by step guide for installing the new Devhook 0.51 along with 3.01 firmware.

1. Remove all previous devhook files from your memory stick.

2. Copy the devhook 0.51 package to the root of your memory stick. This would be ms0:/ and the three folders should be "dh", "PSP" and "fbm". If you are running 2.71 SE, make sure that the DH051BETA folders are going into the 1.5 GAME folder.

3. Download the 3.01 update here.

4. Get PSARDumper here.

5. Extract the DATA.PSAR from the 3.01 update you've downloaded with a program such as PBP Unpacker. Once thats done, copy the DATA.PSAR over to the root of your memory stick.

6. Run PSARDumper on your PSP, once its loaded up press X to dump a sigchecked 3.01. Once its done your PSP will return to the main menu.

7. Open up your memory stick, you will now see that there is an "F0" folder in the root. Move that to the "301" folder inside of "dh".

8. Launch up devhook and go to "FLASH ROM" settings, choose install dh to flash1. DO NOT touch any of the other settings unless you know what you're doing. Please note that if you used a previous devhook version that installed to flash1, you should use the "uninstall DH files from flash1" option before doing this.

9. Finally, choose "FIRMWARE" from the devhook menu and pick 3.01. Now start devhook and you should be good to go!

NOTE: To exit Devhook 3.01 press Home in XMB Menu.

I've been a playing with PSP Homebrew since the day the PSP came out, just a relative noob on this site.
Here is a checklist of things that you may have not done (lots of people making these mistakes):

1. Remove Devhook previous installs (including Flash_01 install for 0.50)
2. Format memory Stick before install to wipe any hidden corruption
3. Dumped your own 3.01 DATA.PSAR file (as it is sigchecked and unique to each PSP) - also must be dumped using x button (sigchecked)
4. Made sure the 4 .txt files from the dh/301/kd (that came in the 0.51 rar file) are placed inside the dh/301/kd - not just the
5. /fbm folder from 0.51 rar is not memory stick (not mentioned in any tutorial that this must be on stick)
6. If using 2.71 SE - Devhook GAME folders must be in GAME150 on memory stick. (Even if you have it configured to boot 1.5 kernel)
7. I am also not sure if Region makes a difference in your 3.01 PSAR Dump. I used US first and it did not work (I am in the UK.) Used UK 3.01 from Sony Website and it worked fine.

Let me know if you have done all these, really want it to work for you - it took me loads of attempts to get it to work and it does.
