PS Vita OFW 2.11 available
Earlier today Sony deployed a new version of the Vita firmware to their network.
It is still unclear what the update does, and according to most sources the update is not mandatory for now.
As The Z pointed out on our forums, this is most likely a quick issue fix, probably some minor bug introduced in 2.10 that had to be quickly patched, as is the case for most minor revisions of Sony’s firmwares (i.e if it doesn’t end with a “0”, it’s not worth it).
Of course, it’s worth mentioning you shouldn’t update unless you really have to, especially if you value hacks, homebrews, and all that stuff that the cool kids seem to love. Yeah, I mean us when I say “cool kids”.
Stay tuned!

FIRST HAHAHAHAH (I’m so cool)
Yo, since you’re so cool, you can hang out with me and my friends at the bar tonight. Drinks on me!
hi Wololo are there some games wich you advice to buy, for a future TN V? (im currently in 2.10) and what are the techniques to get a game in Vita without having to update in order to buy it.
Buy every PSP Game AND Mini on the store to ensure you get a user exploit, once you get the user exploit, you are sure to get a TN-V when/if it is released 😉
Also buy at least 1 vita per region and buy all the PSN vita games in addition to all the PSP and mini games per region.
FIST OF FIRST!!!
No you are not.
Many people have problems with playing games after the update 2.10 Like FIFA13. It has to do with creating a folder and putting the games in it. It creates some sort of a bug many people encountered.
You can read more about it on the PS Vita general discussion, in the playstation community forum. 2.11 has fixed few of these problems
how com you did int use a demo game named locoroco
F.I.R.S.T
Also, interesting with the irrelevant update. Maybe it was an attempt at patching the folder trick from Z?
No, there is no folder trick, we just changed the homebrew directory, and we can do it as many times as we want/need to.
It was probably a native patch, maybe they left a horribly gigantic hole open in the security?
I wish we could tell if they had updated the PSP emulator firmware
The z has a folder trick that is probably more convenient than changing the folders.
what the heck is the z folder trick

if new fw 2.11 is up why i can acces market and all stuff from fw 2.10? O.o
the update isn’t major, just a small fix for something, it isn’t something that would really change anything you do, possibly just fixes a few speed/compatibility issues in games.
the game hasent ben pacht yet and the demo is free so wololo isent thar sumthing that you can do with dis demo game locoroco midnight
There is no exploit in that demo.
People, stop asking “Can you make an exploit in the game ?”. You can’t make an exploit out of any game, just certain ones that have vulnerabilities in them.
Sorry, that comment should have been:

don’t you see he loco!
Sony. They only do updates.
ANOTHER UPDATE ALREADY? damn.
They really need to get their head out of their *** and fix this Vita. How about some beta testing before it goes public.
if i just bought uno on the psn store will i still be able to do the exploit again and is there any exploits for 2.11 yet and is it possible to downgrade
Only if you are on 2.02 and below. Not any released. No you can not downgrade.
well no vita downgrade yet…or released…
It hasn’t even been a week and those *** are sending out yet another firmware. -__-
funny its the same thing that sony did with like 2.02 wen there was a problem with the ps plus save game sync.
Another *** update
Just another useless update already ?
i still have 2.10 downloaded n ready to update on two point six now…
I had some wifi problems after updating to 2.10, strangely especially when booting a new game Guacamelee. Lets see if this fixes it
Well, the bot is technically not mine.
where to publish the exploit, I can never buy. I’m on version 2.1 and want to go to 2.11.
It’s most likely and update to be compatible with ‘Soul Sacrifice’ due to the fact that Sony was suppose to release the U.S. Version of the demo yesterday, yet it’s still not up.
Hack Hack Hack , please Hack PS Vita !
2.10 FW broke a few games, including Hot Shots Golf, which was hard crashing my Vita. the 2.11 update fixed that.
Haha, I love your “cool kids” comment 🙂
For the guys in the latest update: Im in 2.01 still with the exploit for psp iso’s and all from Wololo and all the other royal hackers (Thanks guys for making this possible). Ive been playing games that can be played on my psp on my vita and it seems like there’s no difference (other than the huge screen and additional keys but nothing major). The only similarity with 2.11 users and hackable firmware users is were waiting for something new. Why not we aim for something BIG, like something that’s worth waiting like a PSVITA game hack, or an OS that we can port on a vita instead of complaining and arguing about a PSP exploit that they can’t put on the latest FW. The hackers are working their *** off for us guys so lets just hope their brains won’t collapse for our demands.
For the Hackers: Thanks for your great work and I know that these things aren’t your greatest work yet. We know there’s more to come and we’re looking forward for your greatest achievements.
THIS UPDATE LITERALLY DESTROYED MY VITA. Sending it back to warranty, because it is turning on and off alone, power button and PS Vita button doesnt work, USB connection turns on and off alone, i cant keep my games organized the way i want, whenever the console turns off it defaults the games positions on the main screen. Screw you Sony.
How can I hack my ps vita running 2.11?
hey and when can we download this exploit
