How To Install ChickHEN R2

By calsijnm  //  Custom Firmware, PSP-3000/PSP-2000v3  //  No Comments

 

Requirements

  • a PSP-3000 or a PSP-2000 with a TA083v3 motherboard.
  • Official firmware 5.03. If your firmware is higher : no CFW for you mate, sorry.
  • ChickHEN R2

 

Let's go to work !

 

  • If your official firmware is below 5.03, you need to update your PSP first. Enable the USB-Connection on your PSP. Place the 503.PBP file inside X:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE. Disconnect from USB and on your PSP navigate to GAME >> Memory Stick >> 5.03 Firmware and press X. This should bring you to OFW 5.03.
  • On your PSP now navigate to Settings >> System Settings >> Restore Default Settings and press X

     
  • In the same menu turn off UMD Auto Start and UMD Cache
  • Still in Systems Settings, make sure the Character Set is set to US

     
  • Now navigate to Settings >> Theme Settings and select Classic
  • OK, now download and unzip ChickHEN R2 to your computer
  • Enable a USB Connection and put h.bin in the root of your Memory Stick, this means X:/h.bin
  • Place the CHICKHEN folder (inside the SLIM folder) to your psp in  x:/PSP/PHOTO  so you end up with  x:/PSP/PHOTO/CHICKHEN
  • Disconnect from USB and completely turn off you PSP (holding the power button up for 5 seconds)
  • Restart your PSP and go to Photo >> Memory Stick and WAIT until the options menu appears.
  • Hit X to open the ChickHEN folder and see the magic
  • This method may take several tries to work!
