devhook 0.51 + 2.71se C question

[andrewgabriel77]

Also here's another thought...when you close DH...how do you do it? Do you press HOME to open the DH OnScreen Menu and select escape the devhook? If you just Hard OFF certain items may not be retained in the registry files

I tried both methods of exiting

[andrewgabriel77]

That is weird...I can't see any reason why it would be psp specific but may be you're right...It seems that my psp is set up the same as yours (2.71sec, DH .51, etc.) so I cant see how another psp would make the difference. The only thing I could think of is if you got a bad DL of DH or a bad dump of 3.01.

[steve-b]

That had crossed my mind.
I tried the download from DCEMU and it was corrupt so I had to go to some other site (it had QJ in its URL

I re-dumped 3.01 when I reinstalled everything too, so unless I had two bad dumps...Perhaps I need to use a different version of the decrypter.

[steve-b]

Well this just gets stranger.

I just tried my buddies PSP with the same files, same decrypter etc and his install works perfectly!!

WTF!!!

[andrewgabriel77]

that's possible...you could go to http://www.fanjita.org/psp.htmlfor the original decrypter by noobz. When I first heard about this new version of DH I downloaded it over at Maxconsole. One last thought though...did you keep that "FBM" folder in ms root? I have no idea what it's supposed to be for but I left mine there

[steve-b]

Yep, FBM folder is intact.

I'm going to format my memstick, etc and start over.

[steve-b]

I may have a cause/solution. gimme a few mins to lather/rinse/repeat

EDIT: Alrighty then, here is a half-explanation

When I first installed it all, when I first ran DevHook and changed all the settings (flash to F1, FW 3.01 etc) I also picked No-UMD. This is a bad idea.

Now I have it saving backgrounds, settings etc. The only thing I did differently was not turn on No-UMD on the first devhook run. I went in changed all my settings in the 3.01FW, exited devhook, then restarted. This time, I switched on no-umd. Everything is fine. I have exited a bunch of times and it is still remembering my settings.

I have tried this three times now and can say for sure that switching no-umd on, on the first devhook run after install will break it.

I hope that made sense
