I am hoping for HEN release either later today or tomorrow, it depends on many factors (as currently I am not at home).

Thanks jiMbo for the tip!

This video should also silence you non believers I think. HEN is real and not a Hoax. No release date has been set so we just have to wait a little more but it is coming!

Also posted was a recent interview with Project lead Davee on the M for Mature forums.

*Davee* We’ve got all the launcher working
*Davee* and the greater part of the modules work
*Davee* there is a bug in rebootex however, which is really hard to debug as there is no screen or IO
*Slasher* ah I see, so once this bug is fixed then, it should be all ready for release hopefully?
*Davee* probably not
*Davee* but it’s close
*Slasher* cool
*Slasher* are you relatively confident that this bug will be fixed? how hard is it to pinpoint it?
*Davee* Strongly confident
*Davee* If all my testing fails, I will reverse 5.00 M33 rebootex
*Davee* pinpointing is hard, as I have no debugging utilities
*Davee* it’s a matter of testing each patch individually

We will let you know as soon as its released. Oh and don’t update to Firmware 5.50 if you want to use HEN!

Thanks to VoXeR for the tip!

TIFF Exploit / HEN release has been delayed... Patience Jedi

The team behind the TIFF Exploit has posted today that the TIFF exploit or HEN release has been delayed due to unforeseen problems creating a the release. In know alot of you have been eagerly awaiting this release. Please be patient, flaming comments will not bring this release any closer….

Update 4/21/09: It will not be released tonight (9:30PM EST as I’m writing this) and Davee will be gone for a good portion of the end of the week so there is no idea as to a new potential release date. We all ask for your patience as we work through these moments of anticipation and excitement.

NOTE: Davee and crew have been hard at work on getting HEN for us however they have ran into quite a few problems and have been working diligently to solve them. We ask for your patience at this time, we do not have an estimate for the release date (Davee originally said “by Tuesday” but that was before the complications arose). We will update you on any progress we get notified of!

You won't be loading UMD ISO's

Here’s what davee posted today on the M for Mature forums

I assure you I have absolutely no intention of adding ISO/CSO loading at any stage of HEN. HEN will have next to no features of M33 except patching the firmware for homebrew. My initial idea was to load the M33 firmware and modify but I couldn’t get into contact with M33 for permissions to use their modules as of such I am using my own reverses.

To All:

To everyone begging their asses off for ISO support you can easily forget it. Even if I was to add it, about 50% of M33 is for ISO support and frankly I cannot be assed reversing that just to feed the pirates and the minority who actually use it for personal backups. I also believe you people are being incredibly ungrateful about there being no ISO support. For one, I have a homebrew enabled PSP 1000, I have no 2000 or a 3000. I should be technically studying for my exams but I still take the time to create this HEN for you folks. I think you need to take your time and realise what you’re saying.

We agree that ISO support will just feed the pirates out there. Homebrew support on a PSP-3000 will be great!. Although it is nice to convert that UMD we brought into a CSO/ISO for faster load times off the memory stick…That’s an added bonus but that leads to piracy and its killing the PSP. Well that and used games which are just as bad if not equal in the eyes of game developers.

PSP-3000 HEN coming soon!

Things are indeed heating up on the homebrew scene. Looks like homebrew is coming to that PSP-3000 of yours. Davee has reported he has a working Kernel exploit on the way for the PSP-3000 / Ta88v3 Motherboards that will enable homebrew. Rather than rephrase what davee has posted, I’ll just quote it

HEN will be a stripped down enabler lacking many features of M33 custom firmware. It’ll allow the bootup of homebrew regardless but may be restrictive to certain applications (in cases where it will not boot at all). However, applications will be released to enhance the HEN such as the loading of M33 custom firmware when I get permission to use the modules.

As another note, the conditions of the TIFF exploit as very unstable (as you might have noticed) and flashing of modules to flash0 is improbable and will load off the memorystick. An eboot will be supplied to countervent this and will flash the modules in a more stable enviroment.

Release is currently unconfirmed but will be before Tuesday.

Its looking good indeed. We are watching and waiting for this release. And it will be soon by the sounds of it (Before Tuesday).
