Custom Firmware 5.03GEN for HEN-A: First Mini Frequently Asked Questions.
by MaGiXieN

FAQ:

* The Custom Firmware 5.03GEN for HEN-A is not fake
Wee thought that it was needless to say but never PSPGEN announced an exclusive without this happen.
Wee are often late because wee have a real life that interferes with the site, but wee always kept our commitments.

* No risk of brick in normal use
Custom Firmware 5.03GEN for HEN-A can not brick your console during the installation. Understand that the
Custom Firmware 5.03GEN for HEN-A adds the files it needs but does not those of the official firmware 5.03.
Once installed, as it is a Custom Firmware, you have access to the flash0 of your console.

Note that on a PSP-3000 (or PSP-2000 v3), DO NOT TOUCH THE FLASH0
since editing a file of OFW 5.03 will result in am Irreparable Brick.

* Will it put an unofficial theme
NO. The unofficial themes are actually files that replace the firmware in the flash of your console.
As mentioned above, this operation is prohibited on PSP-3000 and PSP-2000 v3 bec. it could your Brick PSP.

* The Custom Firmware 5.03GEN for HEN-A can be installed on all the PSP?
It runs on all PSP including PSP-2000 v3 and PSP-3000. It has no relevance on the PSP-1000 that can install
Custom Firmware 5.02GEN-A thru other means (Pandora Kit, ChickHEN R2 with Hellcat's Recovery Flasher, etc.).

* The Custom Firmware 5.03GEN-A need for HEN he reactivation in the event of termination of the console?
YES but not a relocation. Custom Firmware 5.03GEN for HEN-A is a real but the Custom Firmware PSP-3000
(and PSP-2000V3) may not start like a modified firmware. It must pass through Davee's chickHEN R2 to launch/run
the program (or installs the first time) Custom Firmware itself. Once launched, the PSP Custom Firmware is the
same as it flashes files to flash0. Only the launch mode is different.

* Is there a Recovery Mode?
YES, The 5.02GEN-A has been patched to run on the PSP-3000. It allows you to change the majority of the usual
(Example: The deletion of coldboot example is useless since the PSP does not start in Custom firmware).
Note that wee encounter some problems with this recovery in VSH and wee will probably wait for a patch to
correct to be 100% functional. Note that the GEN VSH MENU works very well.

* Is there a kit for SDK Custom Firmware for 5.03GEN-A HEN?
No. PSP-3000 and PSP-2000 v3 motherboards have prevented the use of such a system.
Everything is possible but in this case the probability of such a system is really very low.

* How to install Custom Firmware 5.03GEN for HEN-A?
At the base is a windows application (sorry for the others) that allows you to patch the
Custom Firmware 5.02GEN-A to make it compatible with the PSP-3000 and PSP-2000 V3 before
copying the files needed to install on the Memory Stick of the PSP.
