YOU HAVE TO HAVE A ta-082 MOTHER BOARD...

GUIDE #1..... HOW TO INSTALL HEN AND DEVHOOK ON A TA-082 FW2.71 PSP

GUIDE #2..... HOW TO PLAY ISO/CSO

PART #3...... Other reminders, Credits, How-To-Use and links

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

GUIDE #1:

HENC is homebrew enabler. This handy app lets you use the devhook launcher for your TA-082 motherboard fw 2.71 PSP. It will let you emulate/boot fw 1.5 on your PSP. Instead of a fw1.5 PSP emulating/booting the fw 2.71, you are able to do the opposite. It will not matter if you have a ta-082 motherboard or not.As long as it's fw 2.71

REMINDER:THIS WILL NOT BRICK YOUR PSP OR YOUR TA-082 PSP.. THERE IS NOT EVEN A LITTLE CHANCE..THOUGH YOUR PSP HAS TO BE A 2.71 FOR THIS GUIDE TO WORK. PLEASE REMEMBER TO REPLY IF THIS GUIDE HAS HELP U ALOT.

PLEASE DON't ASK QUESTIONS RELATED TO SOMETHING LIKE THIS>>>>

1.Are u sure my psp going to be ok?

YES, it will be ok.

2.Will it brick my 2.71 ta-082?

NO, it will not brick your 2.71 motherboard/ta-082

3.Will it work with a ta-082?

Yes it will work perfectly as long as it is a 2.71 fw psp

IF U DO NOT HAVE A FIRMWARE/VERSION 2.71 PSP FOLLOW STEPS FROM 1. TO 43. TO CHECK WHAT FW U HAVE PLEASE READ #47.

IF YOUR PSP IS ALREADY ON FW/VERSION 2.71..START FROM 11.TO 43.

In this tutorial you'll find words/phrases that some of you might not know.here is what i call 'kinda dictionary'

1.Hard reset

To hold the power switch up for 4-8 seconds.

2.ROOT menu

The ROOT menu of your psp memory stick is where your folder PSP and MP-ROOT is located.

3.MS

MS means memory stick.

4.FW

This means firmware which is another word for version.

5.thx

this means Thanks or Thank you.

6.Keavalro

This is not a 'thing',Kealvalro is a member of this site like me.

7.Link(s)

A link is something you can simply click on with your cursor and it will bring you to the site that you clicked on

GUIDE #2

Ahhh, ISO.. One of the best things you can hope to do with your PSP... ISO is a type of format that lets you play on your PSP..Or in other words, download PSP games to your PSP. There is a simple few steps to do this after you have installed your HENC and devhook.

GUIDE STARTS HERE

1.Download The ISO/CSO you want from anywhere. I suggest you download a Torrent.

2. In the ROOT of your memory stick make a new folder called ISO

3. Drag the ISO/CSO into that folder

4. Now boot up HENC

5.Now boot up Devhook

6.Now for the fw, choose 2.71

7.Then while you are still on devhook, click on UMD SELECT

8.choose your ISO or CSO that you have downloaded

9.press start

YOU ARE NOW FINISHED GUIDE #2

DOES NOT WORK? TRY THIS!

you dont run devhook twice, just do what this guide says.

1. Take UMD out of UMD drive (if there is one in)

2. Boot HenC

3. Boot Devhook (choosing firmware 2.71 **not the flash version)

4. Select ISO/CSO you want to play, then press start.

5. There should be a red anime screen.

6. Insert any UMD (other than a movie)

7. scroll over to where the UMD is accessible. There should be a picture for your iso. Just click it and it should play the ISO.

Other REMINDERS, Credits,How-To-Use and Links:

REMINDERS and How-To-Use:

1.To return to your original fw2.71 when in 1.5, hard reset your PSP.if you put it on sleep mode it will still be a 1.5

2.If i miss a step just tell me and i will fix it as soon as possible

3.If you have ANY questions to ask about any of this, feel free to ask.If i cannot reply or have no answer to your questions hopefully someone else will answer for you.

4.Make sure there are no umd in the psp or it wont work...u know that sound wen u put a umd into the psp?wen that sound is on while using hen...hen will just freeze.so either u take out the umd or wait till the sound is done....the sound that u hear wen the umd is spinning inside of the psp is the sound im talking about.

5.If there is ANYTHING that seems confusing even a little bit to anyone please post it or tell me so that i can simplify it.

I wouldn't trust a guide with spelling comparable to that of a 3rd grader. No offense.

[GNRfan001]

i dint make the guide...

i used this guide at least on 4 different occasions and it dint let me down once...

so i thought i would post it just incase some one else was into PSP's

[jkdrummer]

you can trust this guide, i know a lot about psp's there are many more tutorials like this one.

Spelling isn't everything.

my brother is a programmer and got dyslexia. So normally he can't write for shit, but damn he can programing.
