ChickHEN for PSP now available to satisfy homebrew pleasures

May 7, 2009 By Kunal Gangar 4 Comments

Sony PSP family

 

The Typhoon team has released the ChickHEN app that enables homebrew on older PSPs as well as the unhackable PSP-3000 and PSPs with TA-088v3 mobos. So what does this app exactly do? Well, it allows users to play classic games as well as run apps stored on the memory card of the PSP.

However, if you’re trying it out to play UMD backups from the memory card or PSX games, you’ll be sad to know that ChickHEN doesn’t support it.

ChickHEN as a Homebrew Enabler that allows the execution of homebrew via the PSP XMB. Running via a vulnerability in the lib TIFF the launcher takes advantage of the system by performing a kernel exploit and rebooting into a homebrew enabled enviroment. The ChickHEN remains active until the PSP is fully reset in which case official firmware loads from the flash. ChickHEN unlike other HEN’s doesn’t touch the flash0 and resides completely in memory. The h.bin supplied in this download consists of a loader and systemex, which is a inversed order of systemctrl and rebootex.

Download from here.
