UPDATE: for anyone watching as of 15 January 2019 (the release date of the latest firmware which is 3.70) you need to replace the "Custom PS Vita version" (at 6:32 in the video) from 03.690.000 with 03.700.000
No no no. It depends which version you're trying to use. If you are doing 3.65 then replace the 3.69 to 3.65. Example; 0.3.650.000 Then in your Henaku settings on the vita, spoof the version to 3.70.
Man I went around the world and came back. Learn a few things on system programming. If your PS Vita is not getting connected please restart your PS Vita and your computer. Also use an original USB cable. This will definitely work but nobody mentions it. If it isn’t getting connected please restart your unit. I did it a few times and it work!!!
If you have a problem with the PS vita asking to update make sure QCMA is spoofing the correct version you are using in the video its spoofing 3.69 and I'm on 3.68 I spent hours going over this going crazy I thought thought this will help
DR Straw mmmmmmm that is strange have you done the DNS trick?? And have you blocked automatic updates if not do that then reboot your PS vita then try it again with qcma spoofing your firmware version
Thank yooouuu! Upgraded my SD Card from 256gb to 400gb and simply transferring over the files didn't work. Had to install xxBlank.img, format, follow this guide, THEN it worked, hot damn. lmfao Now just to reinstall everything I like. Thanks so much man!
I started with ps vita 3.68. I followed all the instructions and wooohoooo finally I can play emulators. I had no problems from start to finish. I watched the other vita videos by him and I'm all hooked up now. James is the man.
@@mzskiii4754 rip Also do u know why my vita keeps showing the blinking red light as if it has no battery i waited like 24 hours with it plugged in before and i switched batteries and it worked for like a few hours untill it did the same the new battery, u kno any fix?
@@mountaink2z i used to have the same problem ,if you have a xbox or ps4 try plugging the usb charger in and charge your ps vita with the ps4 or xbox on i think that should help unless your battery is corrupt !
Great tutorial. Way easier to follow than the others, and I had no trouble with any steps! (Except for one, my vita wanted to update when connected to PC. I needed to be in airplane mode, reset my vita, then it would work)
I kept having the "Update system software" issue when trying to connect to the PC for like an hour lol------ (PSVITA)Go to settings--go down to the bottom on "Format" then the 4th option says "Restore this system". Hit that. All done :) (it'll also tell you if you want to format the memory card) i hit yes when i wanted to rehack my vita. Restarted my computer, Followed this tutorial once again and it worked :) and the issue WAS NO MORE.
Thanks a lot finally have a jailbroken ps vita after all these tries for anyone doing it now just change Custom PS Vita version (at 6:32 in the video) to the latest released firmware (which is currently 3.73) so put 03.730.000
A couple of issues i had with h-encore and the fixes: When i opened up h-encore it would always crash. - If you hold R while it loads up then it should allow you to open it. I could install henkaku but got an error message when installing vitashell - you need to make sure you are connected to the internet and airplane mode is switched off
Mr james greeting from indonesia. I cant believe your video just save my day. I bought a 2nd ps vita for $50. And the game shop asking another $50 to jailbreak it and pay $2 for installing a game. Sadly, im returningto home with blank ps vita with no game. Becoz im cant afford to pay $50. So i went google and try jailbreak. But fail. But luckly i found your youtube channel and unlock the ps vita by following your step. And ITS WORK. Thank you so much for helping me. 🤗 keep up the good work
ArabicDog do you have Sony’s CMA installed apart from qcma? I keep having issues w the dns. I believe I may need to log in to the psn then retry it. Let me know thanks. (I’ve been trying to skip the log in part)
It worked thanks! For those that might be having trouble... If it asks you to update when you create or put in your existing psn account hit update it won’t update if your using the MAC address that was provided but it should say your version is up to date. If it won’t let you connect to pc without updating choose FW 0.00 (always up to date) in the other tab in QCMA settings. Then it should work, set spoof to 3.70 that is what worked for me at least
For anyone having problems with QCMA or signing into the PS Store, what worked for me was (on qcma) setting the Custom PS Vita Version to 03.700.000, and (under henkaku settings in ps vita settings) changing the spoofed version to 3.70.
@@sshuraaYT simply won't work because sony updates its devices to patch the exploits we use to install the mod. Just look at ps vita Henkaku 3.70 videos!
Leave a like? Man, I want to shake your hand with admiration for the content you create! I first installed h-encore with your original video on how to do it (love tampering with consoles), but this one is the best on the TH-cam. BIG THANKS!
Worked GREAT! Thank You James! You rock! I always appreciate your perfect videos and soothing voice. Got right through it on my first try! Now to start loading up some emulators. :)
@@iichxgo3924 lmao noobs. Don't know if y'all found the answer, but you clearly need to spoof your version to whatever the latest release is. This is also for any other noobs struggling with this issue, not just you all. Better late than never. Go to your Settings > Henkaku Settings > Spoof vesion
This is my method on 3.67 for DNS problem 1.Enter that DNS 2.Connect to PC 3.Open Content Manager -> Copy content 4.Update pop up show 5.Hold ps and activate airplane mode 6.Hold power button and power off 7.Power on 8.Repeat 3.
depends on the condition of the screen & what model. I bought the older version with a perfect screen a case & a 4gb card for 120 or so from ebay. I also bought the 100 ps vita card for my games. But you don't need to do that anymore someone figured out how to use the cartridge area for a regular plan old fashion mini sd card.
Thank you very much for your video, I already had h-encore installed and I messed up some files and, your video help to install the software again, for some reason I wasnt able to sign up to psn and it wasnt connecting via USB, but I connected the PC via wifi and it worked fine, once I did that the PC was reading the USB once again.
very strange I downgraded to 3.65 from 3.70 got h-encore and it will open but when I try to install henkaku X or O will not work. The up and down buttons work but I cannot install either henkaku or vitashell. The all the face buttons work I tested them in a game. Went back to 3.70 and could install henkaku and vita shell from Trinity just fine any idea what is happening. Need the downgrade to open up vita shell
Great video, thank you. I found QCMA for MAC somewhere else (it's not available at that link anymore), but I can't find the autoinstaller for MAC, do you have an idea if it exists?
For whatever reason my vita gets stuck when installing the h-encore.... The loader gets up to the part that says "prompting user for information" It's been over 10 mins and still hasnt moved.... I'm on version 3.68 (non hacked)
Hello Tech James, I downgraded to 3.65 from 3.70 but the DNS is not working for me to activate the device/ open the Playstation Network menu without asking for Update
Start from 4:15 I’m not sure if you need the dns settings, but I left it with the new dns and continued to transfer the h-encore. You should already have vita shell. It’ll let you sign in to psn after you are done with all of the steps.
This is so cool, big thanks man! But I have one question that remains after the video: Can I remove the custom DSN setting after everything is working properly or must I keep it?
If you are getting update required when trying to connect to PC, there are a number of possible fixes but the one which worked for me was to just try and sign in to PSN and when it asks for update there just cancel it then try again to connect to PC in content manager and hey presto it worked....
When I try to copy the app it does not let me and gives me an error message. "Could not copy some content items" "You can only copy applications that your account is the owner of" plz help
If you're having trouble pseudo-signing into your PSN account even when you put in the DSN settings. finish through the steps and get HENkaku or whatever onto your Vita first. Then in HENkaku settings, set the spoofed version to 3.69. My VITA was a 3.67 and it worked and I finally was able to sign into my account.
if you are on 3.67 and the update pop-up keeps showing just cancel it after first time at the time you try to login to your psn account, after that start content manager connect usb and start qcma if doesn't work try putting vita to airplane and restart and repeat eventually it will work, if there's any issues feel free to let me know I'll try helping as much as I can
Ugh thank you! I accidently deleted it and had to reinstall and this was a pain in the rear lol cuz my laptop is so dang old!! I got it back up thank u.
FOR 3.67 USERS: So i tried it about 100 times until i finally got it work. I dont know if many people have the same problems but first i got the problem that the h-encore app was only 6mb and it could not be copied because it says i can only copy apps that i own. To solve that Issue, i changed the qcma setting from 03.690.000 to 03.680.000. (i think because im on 3.67 an not 3.68) and this helped, the hencore app was 13mb now. But then the next error: Cant copy the File error code: C0-11274-5. After trying it a few times more with no change i restarted my Computer and disabled my Internet Security and ALL windows firewalls, and then it finally worked. So for those who have the same errors i hope this will help you. Anyways: thanks for the tutorial!
Perfect timing thank you! I'm purchasing a ps vita in a week. It's on version 3.55. Can't imagine it's too hard to update to the right version. Would you know, is there a preference for 3.65, 3.67, 3.68? I'm guessing 3.68 is best as it would have latest bug fixes? Also, the henkaku site (not sure if official) says not to go past 3.60. Did they pass the baton after that?
@@Dribones9 Follow the steps shown in the video. For instance, go to the advanced setting of your wifi and make sure that the DNS settings are set to manual. Then plug in 212.47.229.76 inside of the box that says primary DNS right under the DNS settings box. Make sure the proxy server box is on "do not use" and that the Mtu box is on automatic. After you do this then try logging into your PSN account. The vita will probably say you need to update but just click update system software and then update via wifi. This will not update the vita, it will just say that you are already on the latest software because of your wifi settings. After you get this prompt just exit the settings and follow techjame's video starting from 3:50.
This makes everything be such an easy install compared to long blogs reading how to mod the vita. Thank you! by the way, hencore is the same as henkaku right? I dont need to install that separately?
same here. i did this and it worked when the video first dropped but since my vita memory card got corrupted, i tried doing this method again and the PS Store is asking me to update the firmware.
@Tech James: When setting all this up should I make a new psn? I'd hate to have my real profile to brick. Also how high is the overall risk is in doing all this? Like do you have to bounce IP addresses or anything, if so I'm out. No idea on all that stuff. I was thinking about buying one but just making sure not to waste the money. Thanks in advance!
Awesome tutorial mate ! My Vita has been lying here for years doing nothing ! With its original 4GB card which I also wiped doing this guide, I have an adaptor arriving any day so I can put a Micro SD card inside, so whats the next step to get Emulationstation on ?
James, can you do a tutorial on how to edit your displayed icons? A lot of the guys I know want to get rid of stuff like Near and Email apps. I know they can't be removed from the Vita, but we would like to at least hide the app icons.
Hmm pretty sure there ins't a good one yet, you can test this if you want www.reddit.com/r/VitaPiracy/comments/8z5cdm/aot_2_asset_swap_patchtext_translated/
I know that one the only thing I didnt know is how to install it it said I need a repatch thing to apply the patch so can u like do à tuto how to download à repatch plugin
Hi Tech nice clear tutorial, one question since i havent tried it, does this still work as of July 2019? And one more thing lets say for unknown reasons i want to remove it and go back to original firmware, is it possible? And one last thing, the games i have installed from psn will they keep working? Thank you.
UPDATE: for anyone watching as of 15 January 2019 (the release date of the latest firmware which is 3.70) you need to replace the "Custom PS Vita version" (at 6:32 in the video) from 03.690.000 with 03.700.000

This still isn't working for me. It asks for an update and I don't know what to do.
@@Ritsuemaru This didn't work for me
mighty flea so does this method work on a ps vita on 3.70??
No no no. It depends which version you're trying to use. If you are doing 3.65 then replace the 3.69 to 3.65. Example; 0.3.650.000
Then in your Henaku settings on the vita, spoof the version to 3.70.
I was struggling with your original method and came across this a few months ago when i jailbroke my vita. Its so nice and easy
You legend. I had Hencore installed but it got borked somehow, did a format and I couldnt sign in to PSN. You saved me again! Thank you sir!

How much would you say is okay to pay for a Vita, especially if you have to get one of those way too expensive memory cards as well?
depends on the condition of the screen & what model. I bought the older version with a perfect screen a case & a 4gb card for 120 or so from ebay. I also bought the 100 ps vita card for my games.

Ikr!!
If you are getting update required when trying to connect to PC, there are a number of possible fixes but the one which worked for me was to just try and sign in to PSN and when it asks for update there just cancel it then try again to connect to PC in content manager and hey presto it worked....
Holy shit! You're right. I tried it and presto! It worked like you said. Thank you!
@@akumajin2491 NP glad it helped!!
When I try to copy the app it does not let me and gives me an error message.
"Could not copy some content items"
"You can only copy applications that your account is the owner of"

@@Ivan5642Shit, thanks for replying man
Clear and helpful as always, much appreciated
please put video of how to install h encore & vita shell version 3.70 for ps vita
If you're having trouble pseudo-signing into your PSN account even when you put in the DSN settings. finish through the steps and get HENkaku or whatever onto your Vita first. Then in HENkaku settings, set the spoofed version to 3.69. My VITA was a 3.67 and it worked and I finally was able to sign into my account.
All I did is just factory reset the device and it worked like butter
K I DOWNLOADED IT IN MY PS VITA AND WHEN I OPEN IT IM STUCK IN WHITE SCREEEN
Me too

Took a few times but worked! Thank you
if you are on 3.67 and the update pop-up keeps showing just cancel it after first time at the time you try to login to your psn account, after that start content manager connect usb and start qcma if doesn't work try putting vita to airplane and restart and repeat eventually it will work, if there's any issues feel free to let me know I'll try helping as much as I can

FOR 3.67 USERS:
So i tried it about 100 times until i finally got it work. I dont know if many people have the same problems but first i got the problem that the h-encore app was only 6mb and it could not be copied because it says i can only copy apps that i own. To solve that Issue, i changed the qcma setting from 03.690.000 to 03.680.000. (i think because im on 3.67 an not 3.68) and this helped, the hencore app was 13mb now. But then the next error: Cant copy the File error code: C0-11274-5. After trying it a few times more with no change i restarted my Computer and disabled my Internet Security and ALL windows firewalls, and then it finally worked. So for those who have the same errors i hope this will help you. Anyways: thanks for the tutorial!
its not working for me its stuck at white screen
same. are you on 3.70 by chance?
Perfect timing thank you! I'm purchasing a ps vita in a week. It's on version 3.55. Can't imagine it's too hard to update to the right version. Would you know, is there a preference for 3.65, 3.67, 3.68? I'm guessing 3.68 is best as it would have latest bug fixes? Also, the henkaku site (not sure if official) says not to go past 3.60. Did they pass the baton after that?
wish i knew this. im on 3.60 and 3.55, about to upgrade to 3.65 because most recent guides dont reference using 3.60
You probably want 3.60, as that has the permanent CFW.
@@NorieagaHDR Thank you!
Go for 3.65, install h-encore and vitashell. Make it permanent via Enso. Also, spoof the version in henkaku settings to 3.69
@@amoghbabbar9899 Cheers! It's great to get all this info before I pick it up next week.
My Vita says must update system software when I try to sign in to PSN. I am on 3.65
fixed
how
@@ramyboumattar9777 DO the internet henkaku spoof
Hey please reply how you fixed it. I’m having the same issue
@@Dribones9 Follow the steps shown in the video. For instance, go to the advanced setting of your wifi and make sure that the DNS settings are set to manual. Then plug in 212.47.229.76 inside of the box that says primary DNS right under the DNS settings box. Make sure the proxy server box is on "do not use" and that the Mtu box is on automatic. After you do this then try logging into your PSN account. The vita will probably say you need to update but just click update system software and then update via wifi. This will not update the vita, it will just say that you are already on the latest software because of your wifi settings. After you get this prompt just exit the settings and follow techjame's video starting from 3:50.
This makes everything be such an easy install compared to long blogs reading how to mod the vita. Thank you! by the way, hencore is the same as henkaku right? I dont need to install that separately?
hellol,
is another DNS address available ? the DNS address in the video is not currently working.
Thank you for your help :)
same here. i did this and it worked when the video first dropped but since my vita memory card got corrupted, i tried doing this method again and the PS Store is asking me to update the firmware.
@Tech James: When setting all this up should I make a new psn? I'd hate to have my real profile to brick. Also how high is the overall risk is in doing all this? Like do you have to bounce IP addresses or anything, if so I'm out. No idea on all that stuff. I was thinking about buying one but just making sure not to waste the money. Thanks in advance!
Your money will not be wasted. Its worth every penny.
Thank you so much i bought second hand and fw really outdate
I love your videos thanks you're the best uoutuber ever
Pls help when I try to join the dns server it say I’m using invalid characters and I did it more than 20 times
Awesome tutorial mate ! My Vita has been lying here for years doing nothing ! With its original 4GB card which I also wiped doing this guide, I have an adaptor arriving any day so I can put a Micro SD card inside, so whats the next step to get Emulationstation on ?
I can get H-encore but it doesn't load. Help?
Me too 😭😭😭😭
Me too
Are you sure you are running 3.68 or lower?
James, can you do a tutorial on how to edit your displayed icons? A lot of the guys I know want to get rid of stuff like Near and Email apps. I know they can't be removed from the Vita, but we would like to at least hide the app icons.
