i have been thinking lately about methods to hack a vita ( i am not one to talk since i don't know anything about hacking and such , but please hear me out till the end )
----------------------------------
1- Use the eCFW to our advantage :
if running a eCFW on a vita is easy (like the TN-V) then why not take advantage of this exploit to go inside the vita's system and modify it ?
what i mean is , developing a homebrew for the PSP that can use this exploit to modify or edit something in the vita's system and installing it on the eCFW on the vita so that when its run on the vita through the eCFW it can modify the files and the system and installs something like a hack ( again i know this is stupid )
so its almost like this :
a VITA with a eCFW
↓
Run the homebrew that is originally for the vita (on the vita's eCFW of course) but used the PSP's firmware (the eCFW) as a "vessel"
↓
The homebrew edits files and the "Core" firmware of the vita
----------------------------------
2-Reverse engineer the PSVUPDATE.PUP file :
ok this one was probably suggested and considered before , but let me explain :
if someone was able to open this file , it could lead us to the key of natively hacking the vita like what happened with the PSP's CFW .
i mean like this :
Unpacking the PSVUPDATE.PUP file
↓
Modifying and applying the hacked files inside it (or opening an exploit to use after installing the firmware)
↓
Installing the firmware update on a vita with an old firmware
i don't think its a great idea but again , these are suggestions .
----------------------------------
ok what do you guys think about these two methods ? impossible ? or already done ?
lets's hear your opinions
