Hacking Will I get banned if I play online on a pirated game?

[Sonic Angel Knight]

So i should just do a full reboot of the PSVITA then going to go.henkaku.xyz will install taihenkakuv8 and not Henkakuv7? Weren't they just merged a while back? why call it taihen again?

Simply restart system, load go.henkaku.xyz and it works again. Open molecule and set spoof to 3.63. Don't forget if you have offline installer to use it to make sure the email app install latest version of henkaku

That still doesn't solve my question on whether or not i should hold R while booting henkaku for it to reinstall over itself again.

Holding R just clears config files, it doesn't completely reset Henkaku. When you run Henkaku, it installs the latest version of the exploit on the web server, so just reboot and install Henkaku as normal, it will give you the latest version.

You merely quoted your own post, which i hadn't completely understood in the first place... I thought that henkaku only installed one time and afterwards it did a "quick reboot" if you fully power off your vita. Because i remember the download taking a while the first time, but mere seconds upon reboots. And I remember Tom saying something about holding R to solve henkaku related problems. Now i know that it wipes out henkaku related configs.

But thanks to you too, i guess.

The r button simply forces full reinstall of henkaku. If you have henkaku set up properly it will simply just activate. But if anything is missing (for example, molecule, or doesn't detect the latest version of vitashell stored in the server, or anything else) it will reinstall by default. For reasons why you would wanna use r to force install is if you can't access molecule or vitashell due to some user based error such as misuse of plugins.

True story i had been locked out of molecule and vita shell. Do not ever set the plugins to all, some apps won't work, which is what i did, when i dislike having to activate the overclock plugin for each game instead of all games. One reason why i would need to force install, to reset the config data for plugins to regain access.

Unless a problem like that happens, simply reboot and go back to the webpage and activate henkaku again and it will always make sure to use the latest revision. if some reason R9 is released and includes vitashell 1.6X or whatever, it will install into molecule if is hosted in the web server. If that version isn't detected already when loading.

o no, guess I better not play my cart games. They aren't on my PSN download list.

Dumped games =! cart

 

[Fugelmir]

I played a lot of pirated games, synced trophies from them and am still not banned.

Wouldn't surprise me if carts had a header like 3ds carts do, which is not present in downloaded games or dumped ones. Seems a simple enough precaution given how paranoid Sony was with Vita security

 

[Ryccardo]

In the past, nearly every act of piracy has eventually led to a ban.

...resulting in people (who by definition have the ability to pirate), and not welcome anymore on the official store, using more """backups""" than original games. Good job!

sony has never banned for syncing trophies, only if they know that you're on CFW or using any other hacks while you're online.

So no play online?

playing online is risky, there's a 90% chance of getting ban while playing, and you might be lucky, and you don't get ban, i just wanted to let you know that when you play online you are risking yourself and you might lose your account, a lot of people plays online these days on vita, and when it first got hacked, they didn't get ban till now, but who know when sony will ban them, sony has no time to ban people, and they don't forgive whatever you tell them, even if your account was hacked and someone used it on CFW, they won't unban you.
