Description: Homebrew Enabler for 3.03 by Noobz / Dark_AleX<br>-------------------------<br><br>This program enables homebrew and downgraders to be run on 3.03 using the original version of GTA.<br>It makes a patch that remains permanent until hardware reset. Sleep mode won't remove the patch.<br><br>This is based on the source for HEN 2.71 provided by Dark_Alex, thanks for the code and the help.<br><br>Note: this program writes some small files in the flash, ONLY the first time is executed.<br>It does NOT rewrite any existing file in the system, it writes new files, so the probabilities of<br>bricking are practically null.<br><br><br>Instructions<br>------------<br><br>- Copy all contents inside MS_ROOT to the root of your memory stick.<br>- Load GTA<br>- If the PSP freezes try again<br>- When you run the program, you'll see a coloured screen that can be one of two colors:<br> * Red: the files couldn't be written to the flash (it happens a few times). Just keep trying.<br> * Pale Blue: The files were written succesfully, and HEN is active. After that, the xmb will<br> be rebooted. Now you can run the homebrew in format prepared for 2.71. (see details below).<br> Note that a pale blue screen will appear again every time the PSP reboots with HEN active.<br><br>- As mentioned before, the patch will remain resident in memory, and even entering sleep mode<br> won't delete it. Only a hardware reset will remove the program from memory.<br><br>- When you do a hardware reset, you'll have to run the tiff again.<br> This time there will just be the pale blue screen and xmb reboot, since this time there is<br> no need to write to the flash.<br><br>Note: Ensure that you leave the PSP/HEN_303 and PSP/SAVEDATA directories that are used for HEN<br>as some of the files are used each time you enter HEN.<br>Note2: Once the program is loaded, it is independant of the memory stick contents. So you can <br>freely swap memory sticks.<br><br><br>Notes about homebrew running<br>-----------------------------<br><br>- Current homebrews are not supported. Since current homebrews are in static elf format, they<br> won't run (they are rejected by the 3.03 kernel). Homebrews for 3.03 have to be in prx format.<br> Programmers see the programming notes.<br> In future versions i may patch the kernel to allow it to accept static elf's. <br><br>- You can try using the PatchSFO tool from www.noobz.eu to patch homebrew to HEN format.<br><br>- There are some samples in the "GAME" directory, all of them ported from the pspsdk samples,<br> except the nanddumper written by Dark_AleX. <br><br> * polyphonic, pspsdk sample (user mode). <br> * cube, pspsdk sample (user mode). It shows a cube rotating.<br> * kdumper, pspsdk sample (kernel mode). It dumps kernel memory to the memory stick.<br> * ipldumper, pspsdk sample (kernel mode). It dumps the ipl to the memory stick.<br> * systemparam, pspsdk sample (user mode). It displays info about the system<br> * nanddumper, by Dark_AleX. (kernel mode). It dumps the full nand content to the file<br> "nandimage.flash" in the memory stick. The format of the dump is compliant with u.p. chip.<br> (It requires 33 MB of free space in the memory stick).<br><br><br><br>Programming notes for developers<br>--------------------------------<br><br>- As mentioned before, homebrew has to be in prx format, at least atm. Furthermore, the main prx, the one in<br> the pbp, has to be an user prx. However this user prx can load unsigned kernel modules from<br> the memory stick, allowing kernel mode apps.<br><br>- There is no need for noplainmodule check patch or nodevicecheck patch, since those are done<br> by the homebrew enabler. <br><br>- Try to use USE_KERNEL_LIBS = 1 in your kernel prx's. In 2.XX, the separation between user<br> and kernel mode is higher than in 1.XX. <br> Some functions in "ForUser" are now totally separated (different address) from their <br> "ForKernel" equivalents. A good example is ModuleMgr. If you are in a kernel prx and <br> you call the sceKernelLoadModule of ModuleMgrForUser, you will get a "ILLEGA_PERMANENT_CALL" error.<br><br>- See the source code of the samples to have a hint on how to program for 3.03.<br><br>Credits and thanks.<br>-------------------<br>- Noobz team for porting to 3.03<br>- Noobz team for porting to 2.80<br><br>Thanks to:<br>- Original code for 2.71 HEN supplied by Dark_AleX<br><br>- Booster for creating devhook. HEN reboot method is based on devhook one.<br><br>- Team C+D for the registry kernel exploit.<br><br>- Mathieulh for the help provided to Dark_AleX for the two months that he was without psp.<br><br><br>Anticredits: ps2nfo for impersonating Dark_AleX in their forums. We don't believe your circus.<br><br><br><br><br><br>
