First you need to download the Gen installer
Download here :
http://rapidshare.com/files/241302533/503gen-for-hen-pspgen_1244244166.zip


01. Connect your PSP to the computer in USB Mode when you have loaded ChickHEN R2.
Download here :
http://downloads.exophase.com/pub/506

02. Unzip 5.03GEN-A_for_HEN.zip on your desktop by example
03. double-click on LAUNCH-ME.exe (GUI)
04.PSP Model : choose options PSP-2000 or PSP-3000 (depends of your PSP)
05.Mode : Choose option FULL
06.PSP Install : Choose option YES
07. push START.
08.the files are copied on your PSP.
09. Disconnect the PSP from USB.
10. Launch the main EBOOT.PBP using ChickHEN R2 (only R2! NOT R1!).
11. When the app load, press L or R to flash the firmware in your flash. YOU ONLY NEED MAKE IT ONE TIME!
12. Press () to reboot in the custom firmware.



NOTES:

- When you installed the custom firmware in your flash you can remove the "files" folder in the MS ROOT.
For your own safety, is better that you rename or erase the prx called "flasher.prx" in the MAIN APP folder to
avoid wrong flash times.

- If you shutdown the machine or the psp crash, you will need use again ChickHEN R2 to load the main app and press O
to reboot in the custom firmware, but if you dont shutdown the machine you are in the custom firmware forever.


BUGS:

- In recovery mode after the option "Configuration" the option selected is the next option. For example, Advanced is
CPU Speed, etc. This is a problem with the original recovery, because I dont have the code is very difficult find the problem.


REMEMBER! THIS APP DONT TOUCH ANY FILE FROM THE ORIGINAL FIRMWARE! IS YOUR FAULT IF YOU LATER CONNECT TO THE FLASH0 AND TOUCH SOME OFFICIAL FILE AND YOU HAVE A BRICK!

DONT TOUCH THEM AND NOT FLASH ANY CUSTOM THEME!

------------ GENyUS-------------


Greetings for this release :

- Dark_Alex for all his great work on scene since 4 years
- Miriam for his full reverse from M33 and the 5.02GEN-A
- PSPGEN Team & Members for help and support
- Davee for the chickhen exploit

When u boot into custom firmware? If yes, then Delete all files from psp( Related to Gen-A)
redownload,reinstall,reflash.

Hope it works this time. :)

whats the point of deleting those files ?

After the installation of GEN-A, you will not require the files in ms0:\files anymore. Renaming and deleting flasher.prx will also prevent accidental reinstallation of GEN-A.

my slim2000v3 keeps turning off after the install.. ??? any ideas.

Stick with CFWEnabler 2.51 for now, until GEN-A is fixed to function correctly on psp2k v3.

tobiasisacoolname for playstation emulation, you should try to follow this tutorial >>> click here

sorry but it's a google translation from a french site (but a really good tutorial)

only dismiss the steps unnecessary for 5.03 (it's an old tutorial)

have fun


and vsh menu may damage your psp if you don't know what you're doing

------------------------

oops iicii was faster

and iicii, you may need old pops to run all your playstation games
