5.03 ChickHEN Homebrew Enabler - Team Typhoon (Article by Granite) So comes the release of
the highly anticipated ChickHEN homebrew enabler by Team Typhoon. After 1800 Lines of code, 4 weeks
of stressful developing and countless amounts of tests the dawn of a new homebrew era for all the
3000, 2000 and 1000 users is on the horizon. What was said to be impossible by many is now a reality,
all styles homebrew are now running on the "unhackable" T88v3 and TA-090 motherboards rolled out by Sony.

What does the ChickHEN do?
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 environment.
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

What ChickHEN does NOT do?
-Run ISO, CSO or any other form of UMD backup.
-Run PSX Games
-Touch The Flash of your beloved PSP
-Magically allow the use of Custom Firmware
-Load plugins

How do I get the HEN to run on my PSP?

1. First off use the supplied TIFF image and place it in the PSP>PHOTO Directory.
2. Copy h.bin over to the MS ROOT and safely remove device.
2. Scroll over to the PHOTO icon on the XMB and click the ChickHEN folder and wait.
(This will not work the first time, you may have to just use a method of loading that works
for you but this is what we have found most efficient)
3. If all goes well the screen should blank out and flash green showing that the HEN is loaded and all is well.
4. Wait for your PSP to reboot and check your PSP's system software. It should now display: "5.03 ChickHEN".
5. Scroll on over to GAME and enjoy some Homebrew!

[Can it break my PSP?]
ChickHEN works differently to all previous HEN's. Instead of flashing to flash0, it resides entirely in RAM
to prevent any damage to the system. Sure enough, you can run applications in HEN to flash stuff but I strongly
recommend against it. ChickHEN comes with no warranty, no guarantee and you run this software under your own
responsibility. Flashing onto your PSP WILL BRICK IT!!

As stated, HEN comes with no warrenty, and this software should not be used in conjunction with
homebrew which can countervent any copyright laws.
