TN Hen: more progress, looking more and more like a CFW
Total_Noob posted a quick update on his blog to talk about his progress over the week (thanks to Tomcluse for the tip):
- – Reversed all systemctrl exports
- – Added USB battery charging
- – Added ability to watch 480×272 avc video
- – Added feature to skip gameboot
- – Added possibilty to hide PIC0.PNG and PIC1.PNG
- – Fixed issue with some VLF homebrews
- – Added possibilty to adjust CPU speed
- – Added fake region feature
- – Added TN network update
- – Resolved all important NIDs
- – Increased homebrew compatibilty
- – Compressed rebootex
In simpler words, Total_Noob is slowly adding to his Hen the features that you would normally see in a CFW. I’m personally crossing fingers for an unlock on the extra 32MB, and I hope plugin support will make it too. Total_Noob told me he has support for PSPLink now, but I couldn’t confirm it, either because I didn’t setup my PSP correctly, or maybe because of a tiny bug in the early beta I got.
Keep up the good work, TN 🙂
Meanwhile, dridri is reporting progress on his ISO Loader on our forums, hopefully this will work with little additional effort when the Hen is released.



@Kobe
lmao, so harsh XD but yeah i agree if he is going to lie like that he should go f*ck himself.
@MNX You could make a fast menu for the HEN when it is released or you could easily just take the HEN and drop it in the HBL folder on the root of your memory stick and rename the folder menu so that when you load the Patapon 2 save and press the right trigger it will load the HEN instead of the Menu.
Any more update on a release date yet?
will there be a possibility that there will be a plug in or whatever it is call which will can make possible to play 6.30/6.31 games or 6.xx whatever will be the next and can you give a % rating for the progress on the HEN ?
@psp owner: yea I was wondering about the plugin to play 6.30/6.31 games on 6.20 also
@wololo
what are the things left to code or add in the HEN and please reply I know you are very busy but please manage to 🙂
dear wololo,
i was wondering, would irshell work on T_N’s HEN?
See guys?
That’s the whole point about releasing the HEN on 6.31!
If you are already on 6.31, then you dont have to worry about ‘patching’ games and running ‘plugins’ for this purpose. It will be one less thing to worry about in the conversion process. As your machine will already meet the firmware requirements.
At 6.20, people will THEN complain about how they cant run any of the newer games that are being released now and in the last 2 months that are already on 6.3x without some kind of ‘patching’ specific to the compatibility of the newest firmware. It will be a noobie nightmare. (pun unintended but implied)
This is why I feel a 6.31 HEN and/or VSH release will alleviate all the future problems. Not too mention, that by the time TN releases ANYTHING, there will be a ton of NEW psp owners who will be on….wait for it…….6.31!
@Muffinheadicus
The only newer game i want is Dissidia 012,the only one u.u
@Lukian: yea I heard that , that game was going to be crazy 🙂
hope we get online support via plugins so we cn ply dissidia online 😀
i’ll wait this saturday a new update again from TN.I Notice he keep update
the 6.20 hen every saturday :D. For me i dont need a CFW Like 6.20 GEN or
something because There already an ISOLOADER by dridri but i hope it work
on HEN. I want an Vhs Menu for the hen why he dont add his Total noob vhs.?
@gerardo Lol i have an account on sony forum they dont bann people
talking about hacks there like TN HEN. I dont know if sony will respond for 6.40 something because i know they already abandon psp. They are Focusing on psp2 now.
@everyone
-Added ability to watch 480×272 avc video
what does it means?
-Added TN network update
Dose it means that he has added something which will help us to update the HEN through net via PSP ?
Please help me out as there is no one I can ask 🙂
looking forward for an online support, been wanting to update to 6.31 to play phantasy star 2 online
look at this video if you have 3D glasses
hes making a vsh exploit that for 6.31 that lets user from 6.31 to load iso and cso games
hey my posts are not visible !!!!
If any of you is interested in ISO loader that Wololo mentioned which is call an openIdeaISO loader created by dridri
this is its post 🙂
We (@ Zer01ne lepota and me) are preparing a CF non-permanent with the following features:
– Recovery mode
– Boot iso
– Start psx
The rest is managed by the HEN (plugins and others)
I say no more fear of passing for a faker.
@wololo
please help me. i bought a psp go on august. i have 5.70 and i cant update on 6.20 i can only update on 6.31. what shall i do?? will hen work for me??
@Nikos0067 there is a way to update to 6.20 but i personally think you should wait until the hen is released … you never know what happens 🙂
btw are you from Greece?? asking because of the username….
@Nikos0067, check this topic on the wagic forums, somebody found the update for you 🙂 http://wololo.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=2392#p18048
as Nickolas mentioned, I don’t recommend upgrading before the Hen is actually released.
Hope more good news from TN.
some information 🙂
This is probably an iso loader invisible, a patch file and installs if necessary and can be started directly from the xmb isos as cf.And it is true.the openideaisoloader is like that.
@ Zer01ne lepota and dridri are preparing a CF non-permanent with the following features:
– Recovery mode
– Boot iso
– Start psx
The rest is managed by the HEN (plugins and others)
words form dridri
In fact there I ended ISO Loader, by doing this:
– The reverse of systemctrl.prx 5.00 M33
– Creation of my loader with just the features I need
– 5.00M33 tests to check if the entire loader works
– And changes all the patches from 5.00 ==> 6.20
– And it is assumed that if the loader works and new patches are good, then it should work the first time.
Here it is played on luck. At this stage I have done everything possible to make it compatible, but I am now the HEN to perform final testing.
Otherwise the “new structure” will not pose problems because the loader is a program of very low level that only juggle the duties of reading and writing.
This is his PSPGEN.com commets 🙂
@wololo Thank you for your reply and for this great topic you shared!! You really do a good job.
@Nickolas thank you too. Yes, I am greek 😀
Also you are right. I will just save the 6.31 update and the 6.20 to my PC. Once the HEN is released i will know what to do. For now, i will keep my PSP Go to version 5.70
Ps.: I used my PS3 to write this =D
^_^
@Nikos0067 I am Greek too. If you want add me on msn : nickolasg.21@hotmail.com
@wololo hope you don’t mind i posted my e mail adress 🙂
will gen team realease a new CFE?, becuz if that is true, every one will use this hen to load the CFE and TN is wasting his time improving in this Hen….
@wololo,
would irshell work on the hen?
thanks in advance
Woaahhhhhhhhh, You and TN are just too pro! Hahha xP
PS. OMG Wololo, I just noticed your little ninja smiley face at the bottom of the page! 🙂 <3 Made my day~ Haha xD
Why that smiley face down there? Haha 😀
Happy that the Go users have found a link to update to 6.20.
Weekend… looks like more stuff is ready to come… just waiting for an update… lets see what comes next…
Cheers. Peace.
Well If TN is trying to make the HEN like a CFW then there should be a ISO loader in it I know has said that he is not but then too 🙂
but good news is that dridri has taken that job and has created a ISO loader he has to only give a final touch to it he has also tried to make a CFW which is not permanent ( for more info see my above comments 🙂 )
This is a very good news for ISOloader and This will also shape your in a CFW to some extent 🙂
Waiting for the release of HEN .It should be this weekend as the Homebrew work is over I think 🙂
@wololo
I have something for you. Somebody from PSPGEN has found a way to launch iso via Half Byte Loader.
Here is the website: http://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.pspgen.com/&ei=n3jeTMz2HIPPhAfEnJiHDQ&sa=X&oi=translate&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CCgQ7gEwAA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dpspgen%26hl%3Den
Can you tell me if this is real or fake?
Give us an update please!
If tn releases the hen with the hot shots golf by now, When do you think Sony will release a new firmware? In my opinion, if Sony doesn’t release a new firmware by the end if the year, tn should add the vsh exploit asap.
@Abdullah He is simply controlling a PSP emulator on the PC through the PSP, not an ISO loader.
@ whoever asked. sorry i forget.
There are 2 types of mp4 video formats. One is h264 and the other is avc.
480#272 is the resolution of the psp screen so to get best quality videos, you need to convert a video to that resolution.
Currently the 6.0+ firmwares support only 480#272 in h264 format so with this hen it will support 480#272 avc format.
This is good for noobs who want to convert videos because they just need a simple mp4 converter, know the screen resolutioon of the psp and then they can convert without having to know of the differant types of formats.
Also ipod touches and iphones only support avc format so you could transfer avc videos back and forth between your psp and ipod touch/iphone without the need to convert them.
But when the Hen comes out we should be able to use Pmplayer Advance which plays lots of video formats.
wololo!!! when you gunna add something new to your blog!!!, i check your site everyday cuz ur blog is awesome ^_^
@qwrfqwerfeqwr, SPAM….SPAM….SPAM….SPAMMER!! CUT HIS NERTS OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
