Release: Total_Noob’s CEF TN-B for Gravity Crash (port by Teck4 and Frostegater)
Despite conspiracy theorists who would love to see us not deliver, here’s, as promised, Teck4’s port of Total_Noob’s eCFW to a new game exploit for the game Gravity Crash Portable.
As “expected”, the game Gravity Crash Portable was removed from all Sony PSN locales yesterday, following our announce 3 days ago of a vulnerability being discovered in that game, that would allow a malicious attacker to run Super Mario Bros on your Vita.
Hopefully, people who missed the Monster Hunter AND Urbanix AND Mad blocker alpha exploits had enough luck this time to catch this 4th game in time before it got pulled.
Teck4 ported TN’s CEF to the Gravity Crash game in JP, while Frostegater adapted this work to the EU and US versions. Total_Noob’s CEF is a tool running within the PSP Emulator of the Vita, which will allow you, among other things, to run most PSP homebrews (see a good selection of great homebrews and emulators here) and PSP plugins. Tools such as the Vita FTP will also simplify your file transfers, compared to the tedious official Content Manager Assistant.
Thanks to TheZ for a video of the tool in action:

How to instal and use
Installation and usage are explained in the readme (thanks Frostegater!), but here they are again:
- Copy both savedata folders to PSVita by CMA(Open CMA is preferred)
- Run game->Editor->Press START->Load level->Choose “exploit”->
- Save level
- Enjoy 😉
Download
Download on this page. Be sure to download the files for Gravity Crash, not the ones for Urbanix or Mad blocker Alpha

This is the tutorial I followed. Be sure not to skip any steps because it is often the small things such as naming a file XXXXXXXX.ZIP instead of xxxxxxxx.zip and having the correct compression type.

If this works for you re-post it so more people can see it, thanks 🙂
Feel free to post a reply about any questions regarding the video, I am here to help.
I’m following the steps but when i go to load level there is no file there. what am i doing wrong.
Have you copied both save files from your regions folder or only the first one?
to fast copy iso to u vita is pack iso with winrar then copy rar file to savedata folder and move save with cma then use pspfiler to move game to iso folder and vuala …fast and easy
copy 2 files to PSAVEDATA\folder with numbers\
I got snes emulator installed, how do I transfer roms to play? I tried using filer to move them to the roms folder but they do not show up when I run the emulator.
you have to pack the roms in with the emulator when you build your ZIP file.
i got my roms working but still not to sure what to do when I want to add more roms in the Future.
Those two folders in the u.s file. do i cut and paste the stuff out of them into psdaveddate
ok got it. dont know what i was doing wrong but its fixed now.
I’m happy to have an exploit in a fun and very small game! I had the MHFU exploit but the game takes like 1gb (at least) and I couldnt continue my current save file. unlike mhfu, I can continue playing this game it’s just perfect! thanks to all hackers for this
Where do i put the ftp and emulators at? which folder?
If you guys are having problems with the iso files ,you must name the iso file 8 characters long in upper case ,even the extension example:DGBTTT10.ISO ,once you have the iso file ready place it into the savedata 01. Start the exploit to the menu and you must see the icon of the game and press x to place it to mso:Iso ( i don’t what that is but when i do that my game freezes for so long and i have to restart , it does work after the third try pressing x repeatly ,I need some help too } I know it works you guys should try it n see how it goes .Hopefully superwololo makes a more specific tutorial on how to put homebrews and iso to the cfw ,THANK YOU DEVELOPERS!!!
I’m at work so I can’t post any samples but i will tonight if you people need them. If someone else wants to create some zipped folders with home brew already prepackaged I’m sure many will appreciate it.
I will try to put some stuff up tonight so that you can see how it’s supposed to be set up. If someone else can beat me to it I would appreciate it.
Also people please be patient exploit was just recently released so not everything may be compatible. Give Wololo and friends thanks and be patient cause I’m sure they will be working to make sure homebrew and whatever else may come to run on your Vita like it should and not damage your system.
I have Gravity Crash downloaded on my PS3, but it’s not showing up in CMA. Did Sony do something to prevent people from transferring it?
If they did like with the previous exploits, then yes.
Alternatively, it is possible you downloaded Gravity Crash (for PS3) instead of Gravity Crash Portable (the game for PSP/Vita)
Ah, darn. Is there any work around for this? I double checked and made sure it was for PSP.
The workaround is to travel in time back to the past, and read this: http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=17862
In particular, read where it says “The best method of absolutely assuring you have the chance to run VHBL or eCFW is to download the exploited game directly to your Vita. Not to your PS3, not to your PC, Not to your PSP. Straight onto your PS Vita”. QFT
🙁
Im afraid traveling back in time to that moment wouldn’t help me.
I saw where it said that, but I had misplaced my memory card at the time.
I downloaded it on my PS3 as a last resort until I found my memory card.
Maybe next time I’ll be prepared.
I download ‘Gravity Crash Portable’ from PSS Singapore

Thanx wololo and all who made is hack possible. got it working in the end – ran angry birds and wipeout to test. i’m actually using my mate’s vita and hacking it for him.
PSP are childsplay compared to this.
Is there any possible to port hk ver gravity crash exploit? thank you!
And I was really looking forward to see that small screen in the middle again
Guy…. i cant believe me what happend today… after finally make my vita work with the exploit and i was SO SO SO HAPPY , i jsut come from my work to transfer some PSP games to my vita and… i cant just unlock my vita
i have the same password since i buy my vita and i cant unlock it , i got error wrong password
Can sony change it to force me restore the system?
if i restore the system and i remove the memory card i can loose my exploit ?
Hopefully u backed up the game on the pc, then if you need to restore you can then use cha to copy game back to vita and redo hack
you can try the ps3 master unlock code 0074 it might work not sure havent forgot my password yet. might be different for vita.

Hey, im new to this website, and to the hacking community. I missed the first 3 exploits like an idiot. I got Gravity crush so im extremely gratefull. I need help because when i turn on gravity crush and click level there is no exploit it is all empty please help
DUDEEEEEEEEE I LOVE UUUUUUU THANNKS IT TOOK ME TO THE SCREEN BUT NOW I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO PUT GAMES ON IT
I’ve said it before, but: http://wololo.net/2012/10/05/tutorial-how-to-copy-isocsohomebrew-on-urbanix/
Check forum people, tutorials on there and also videos on youtube
I tried buddy for like 2 hours im stumped and upset
Yea i’m lost. i got the xploit working but thats about it. all the tutorials say install ftp install this, but how do you install those. a complete walk thru would be great. For people that don’t do this everyday.
Instructions only for Gravity Crash.
If the exploit for Gravity Crash is working on your vita (follow readme). Here’s how to install the ftp program.
1. Grab the vitaftp problem. Extract the zip, and then extract the INSTALL.ZIP . You only need the EBOOT.PBP
2. Create a couple of folders inside each other with the following order PSP, GAME, FTP
3. Put the EBOOT.PBP that you have extracted into the FTP folder
4. Install or use the program called 7zip (this example) – right click on the PSP folder from step #2 and select “Add to archive…” . Make sure the archive format is ZIP and compression level is STORE. It is important that you name the file INSTALL.ZIP in all CAPS.
5. The new zip file should have the folders in order of depth as step #2. Place the new INSTALL.ZIP
6. Locate on your computer where Open CMA backs up your gamesaves. For example mine is d:\Vita\PSAVEDATA\(random_numbers_letters\NPEG00020DATA01
Put the ftp INSTALL.ZIP in the NPEG00020DATA01 folder
7. Now use Open CMA to upload the updated Gravity Crash exploit folder.
8. Load the exploit and install the ftp. Now, you can ftp any homebrew without using the above method.
i got it to work now somehow, and when i click save it says error c1-2858-3
Gravity Crash. I had a issue where I was uploading some old(probably incompatible) homebrew apps via ftp and got c1-2858-3 error when I tried to get back into the TN-B menu. Resolved this by going to the PS Vita’s data manager menu and deleted the corrupt data out of the memory card. Ran the exploit again and no more errors.
same here buddy…m shattered
Works fine for me, thanks sooo much! XD
As soon as you can install vitaftp and then transfer iso through filezilla(I have had no luck with psp filer and such but internet is decent like 18 mbps or something)
i’ve been reading from a couple posts to transfer pep isos through cma and then use psp filer to move it to the right folder. however doing that is a two step process which in the end seems to take just as long as the ftp method. just my opinion. think i’ll stick with the ftp method
if you use ymenu you dont need to move them
look like i missed at 4th time now ~_~ XD
i just bought psn card to buy that GCP but the sony already delete it already oh well must go on and keep up the good work wololo
i only have a game from HK store can you plz make for HK version plz
I can make a port of exploit for you if you give me gravity crash portable.iso!! (HK version for PSP)..
Can somebody please post all the files needed to run isos on Gravity Crush. I’ve tried everything and every step like 40 times but I think I’m doing something wrong because the exploit works fine but no isos or HB appear….
make sure you are not naming the file FILENAME.ZIP.zip to fix this use 7zip for the archive and rename it in the archive manager. What I did was get some homebrew any will do put it in PSP/GAME/ folder in your PSAVEDATA folder. For Isos put them in ISO/ next highlight PSP and ISO and use 7zip to create FILENAME.ZIP archive. put archive in first save file for gravity crash and copy to psp. second load CEF it should show the random homebrew you chose install it and when it installs it will install isos along with it which will show after installation. I’m sure there is an easier way to do this but it works for me. just make sure you have all the homebrew you need in the first archive because it is a pain to manage homebrews without losing stuff with this early cef
