[2.71/ TA-802] Homebrew?

**halcyon626** · December 25th, 2006, 18:26

I just got a PSP running firmware 2.71 and with IC1003 written on the motherboard (that means a TA-802 board, right?)

I've done quite a bit of research on the subject, and after coming to the realization that 2.71 downgrades are not available at this time, I was saddened. However, I do know homebrew enabler runs most games.

My questions to you are:

1. What is the best bet for my system? Should I try homebrew enabler D or is there another alternative?

2. What types of games can you run on henD? What emulators can it run? Does it automatically come with emulators, or does it just allow emulators to run? What are henD's limitations with regards to running homebrew?

3. What is the possibility of bricking the PSP when trying to download henD or other programs. I've heard that simple things like changing your background or theme can cause bricking if your downloading henD, is this true?

Thanks for taking the time out to help a PSP noob

, sorry for so many questions, but I'd rather get this done without having a bricked PSP...

Hen D is the only way to run homebrew

hen-d has the smallest chance in this world of bricking, any help, then contact me on one of the messengers. i use hen d and devhook and there are no limitations to homebrew, you just cant use custom firmwares because of the mother board..

I'm using this walkthrough, where can I find a 1.50 dump for DevHook? Thanks

I don't know if it is legal around here, but I can send you a dump of mine =) (Flash0 and Flash1 if that's what you need)

If you have the time to send it, I'm @ halcyon626 (AT) aim.com

The (AT) is a @ of course ;D

Well...This has the lowest chance of bricking..This is the only way to run homebrew on ta-082..thats all

^^Thanks madcat, but I found one about 4:00 this morning >_<

How do I get homebrew working once I've installed henD and devHook? I can't find a walkthrough for ones running henD, and whenever I try to run the NES emulator (NESTER) I put on it, it says file corrupted...
