Hey all,

The first time I tried HenD worked fine, but when i ran the 1.50 then a message came on saying "game could not be started"

So i reset to default and formatted my mem stick. Now whenever i use HenD the screen goes black instead of green/red... any ideas?

Cheers in advance

if the screen goes black, and not green, then the HEND has failed to load. that's it:)
keep trying until the green screen comes out, i tried 146 times to succeed. Good Luck!

aww. hehe

Its really annoying cos it went red first time, then green the next, and now it either stalls on blue or turns black.

I will keep trying ;)

200 times later... its just going black when i run it.

never goes green or red anymore like it used to.

I will keep trying though.

would updating to 1.80 or 3.03 and using that downgrader help at all?

cheers.

First of all, make sure all the HEND files are in the proper place. The most common reason HEN fails is the people copy the picture files, but not the files that go into the root of the memstick. Format the memstick clean, then copy ALL the files to the proper places. You should have six files from the archive that wind up in the root of the memstick.

Assuming that's all correct, one thing that help many people is to set a custom wallpaper. People who tried it 30 or 40 times without success report success after 3 or 4 tries with a custom wallpaper.

Have done all that a few times and still goes black.

Like it has gone green and red before but for some reason now it doesnt.

Im now trying just to format it each time it doesnt work and copy them and try again and on the 3rd attempt it flashed red first, then went blue, then black... : /

when you get a green screen, and the PSP reboots back to the XMB, then it's very well succeeded. when you get the green screen and it reboots back, check if it says 2.71 HEND (or HENC) in the system version. if it does, don't close your PSP! proceed with the downgrading.

yes i know that. The only time it went green it didnt have that though.

To make sure i am was doing it perfectly, i looked at a video and downloaded the executable that puts the file in for you... still the same black screen after blue.

Ill keep trying and hope the screen colour doesnt go black at some point.

thanks.

worked first time on 2.80.

Thanks alot for the help.

It's a little odd that one version works better than another for some people. 2.71 worked the first time when I tried it back when I first downgraded. But that's what comes from having to rely on an exploit. If Sony would just allow homebrew, it wouldn't be an issue.
