Enso Henkaku hack teased for PlayStation Vita



PlayStation Vita owners have reason to get excited once again, as there's something new bubbling in the Vita scene. Reknown Vita hacker, Yifanlu tweeted out a site (linked below) which showcases something called "Enso Henkaku" which appears to be a permanent CFW for the system, as it shows a unique firmware, and the ability to load Molecular Shell immediately after a reboot. The site teases the date "July 29, 2017", so perhaps we'll hear something then. Until then, stay tuned, as GBAtemp will keep you fully updated on this news.

What gets me a bit excited about this is the prospect of being even safer playing games online.

Here me out, currently when you go online Sony can conceivably see your play history and look at what vpks you've been using. You can use vita history deleter to remove the history, but then you have to reboot and load up henkaku again to play the games, so they can still see that you used that app.

However if you can play game backups from the get-go via coldboot, you can conceivably play online without them seeing that you've done anything but played the game.

Is this something to REALLY get hyped about, or still stuck on 3.60? It's cool nonetheless, but if it can let us go beyond 3.60 with cfw, it'll be HUGE!!!

it will be similar to PS3s only exploitable fw is 3.55, but i guess its a matter of time before higher cfws come out.

but to the video i see nothing really different, yes the console firmware instantly shows as henkaku and its boot logo is different (likely a mod, i have changed my ps3 boot) but he is still booting molecular shell app right after the console starts?

so what difference is this really:
My vita default firmware/boot
boot henkaku exploit (looks same on vid)
boot homebrew/apps/games
