PlayStation Vita and PlayStation TV 3.60 Firmware Hacked (HENkaku Hack)

The PlayStation Vita and PlayStation TV on firmware 3.60 have been hacked. This is a native hack, meaning it's the actual Vita / PS TV is hacked and not the emulated PSP, meaning any Vita / PlayStation TV currently released to date is now capable of running homebrew.

The new hack, known as "HENKaku", will require the following:

• A Vita/PSTV running 3.60
• A memcard with at least 10MB of free space (internal memory is currently not supported!)
• An FTP client
• An internet connection

Yifan Lu who released the hack had this to say about it:

HENkaku simply lets you install homebrew as bubbles in LiveArea. It is a native hack that disables the filesystem sandbox. It installs molecularShell, a fork of VitaShell that lets you access the memory card over FTP and install homebrew packages (which we create as VPK files). With vita-toolchain, developers have access to the same system features licensed developers have access to as well as undocumented features that licensed developers cannot use (including overclocking the processors).

The HENkaku hack has been released at https://henkaku.xyz/, you will need to visit HENkaku website to perform the hack and require a PlayStation Vita and PlayStation TV on firmware 3.60.
