Installing Homebrew onto your PSP
The folder you install your homebrew to depends on your "Game homebrew folder" option you set in Recovery Mode.
If your "Game Homebrew Folder" option is set to '3.xx Kernel':
* Put 1.00 / 1.50 format homebrew into the PSP \ GAME150 \ folder.
* Put 2.xx / 3.xx format homebrew into the PSP \ GAME \ folder.
If your "Game Homebrew Folder" option is set to '1.50 Kernel':
* Put 1.00 / 1.50 format homebrew into the PSP \ GAME \ folder.
* Put 2.xx / 3.xx format homebrew into the PSP \ GAME3xx \ folder.
You can tell what format your homebrew is in by looking at the folders it comes in:
1.00 homebrew has one folder, Its not really common to find a homebrew program in the 1.00 format.
1.50 homebrew has two folders, one folder will have a % symbol in its name and the other won't.
2.xx / 3.xx homebrew has one folder, most homebrew in this format will be only for custom firmware.
If you are unsure what format your homebrew is in, open the readme file that comes with your homebrew program.
Since 1.50 homebrew is harder to install, this is how you install 1.50 homebrew on a custom firmware PSP.
Its similar for 3.xx homebrew, but you will have to place it in the correct 'homebrew' folder.
1. Download and unzip the homebrew program into a folder on your hard drive.
2. Connect your PSP to your computer using a USB Cable.
3. Enable USB connection on your PSP from the settings menu.
4. Open your 1.50 homebrew folder, Its normally 'PSP \ GAME150' if you have custom firmware.
5. Copy both folders from your homebrew program into your 1.50 homebrew folder (e.g PSP \ GAME150)
* Homebrew and Homebrew%
* __SCE__Homebrew and %__SCE__Homebrew
6. Copy any additional files into the folder without the "%" symbol.
e.g If its an emulator you will need to add your Roms / BIOS file.
Read the 'readme.txt' file that came with your homebrew to find out if you need any extra files.
7. Close the USB connection and remove the USB cable.
8. On your PSP go to 'Game' > 'Memory stick', your homebrew should appear in the game list.
9. Select your homebrew and press 'Start'.
