Yup probably. Quick google search sorted it out, was as easy as backing up the old one, and replacing the one on the PS TV via Filezilla.

Yup.

Also it looks like realboy isn't compatible with PSTV.

Excellent! I can live without eCFW for now, but the whitelist was a real deal breaker until now. I can finally update from 3.20 and play online for the first time

Yes I can get my Vita out from the drawer that I put there over a year ago gathering dust.

Bit of cleaning required and we are good to go.

Wish it was more reliable though.. it's a pain in the butt to get it working on my PS TV, takes about five minutes to get rolling each time due to crashes.

Sweet, just what I was waiting for

It seem's to work fine (except for somme bug in sound). Just Super Mario RPG and Shin Megami Tensei I have problems for the rom I tested

Yokimari · Jul 29, 2016

Yup, no longer works for me, going to stop trying soon. The hack couldn't be any more unreliable, honestly.

Edit: Literally after about 30 minutes of trying I got it to work, but it was completely random...

So i just checked my PS vita and is on 3.55, and my pstv is on 3.57, So as far as i know, i can't use this unless i update to 3.60. So @Voxel Studios Is it wise to update to use this or is there other options for current firmware?

(I just realized if i haven't been updating firmware i haven't been playing vita for long time.)

If you have access to eCFW and you still want that, don't update. In every other situation, update. Check FAQ here.

You can access eCFW on your 3.55 Vita (3.57 blocks eCFW), so you can play PSP backups and homebrew from a PSP-like environment. However, you will need an exploit game to be able to install it, so it isn't really worth it...

I would go ahead and update for HENkaku only if you are on 3.55 or above; for any other below firmware, it's recommended to think about it first.

By the way, @yifan_lu, will you be including 'vita-pack-vpk' into the toolchain anytime soon? I see that it is required to build the final .vpk file, however it doesn't seem to be currently incorporated anywhere in the toolchain.

I mean, I already set up the nightly toolchain, and I am able to build the eboot.bin, param.sfo, etc. however I just need the tool to pack the vpk, which doesn't seem to be hosted anywhere without having to compile it, and even then I haven't the foggiest clue as to what to use to compile it...

Hm sound crackles terribly in Genesis Plus GX.

Does anyone else has that problem? The sound really sounds shitty.

So it's just a pure zip file? Well I never knew that! It's a bit hard to try and find the info you're looking for sometimes, so I apologize... -_-"

So do you know where i can find a list of possible games? I would like to check first if i have one already.

A list of possible games for what? Exploit games? Games with 3.60 on them?

I thought you said that firmware under 3.55 require a exploit game. I want to know what it is to know if i already have the game.

The only exploit game for 3.55 is Mimina Lyar Chronicles for the US.

tarovisions · Jul 29, 2016

Got VHBL working, don't be dumb like me and use a blacklisted base game

For 3.52 and under you don't need a exploit game. For 3.55 you need minana.

Oh okay. Never heard of that one. Besides you already said not worth it.

Another question. I was told there is a way to enable specific games that isn't allowed to be played on pstv. I got a PSTV to play YS Memories of Celcestia on there but wasn't able to. Is it too late for that? Just tell me now so i can tell myself to be more careful next time.

You should be able to follow the whitelist patch v2 tutorial, but instead of email exploit, use Molecular Shell. I linked to it earlier in the thread.

Pretty sure the whitelist hack is usable via Henkaku on 3.60 but you'd have to give up eCFW for that.
