Release: VHBL for Vita 2.12
Here it is, the long awaited VHBL release for Qwikrazo87’s VHBL port to the Vita Firmware 2.12!
So, before we give you the files, a bit of disclaimer: This VHBL port runs through an exploit in the game Gamocracy one: legend of Robot. We announced that game secretly to our community members over the past few weeks, and publicly a few days ago. Since then, Sony have pulled the game from their stores, and if history repeats itself, the next Vita firmware update will have a patch for the game. Bottom line is, if you read this article and don’t already have the exploited game installed on your Vita, you missed the opportunity.
Most of the development and testing has been done on the US version of the game, which goes with code number NPUZ00259. As is often the case, the EU version of the game (NPEZ00374) is also exploitable, but we discovered late in the game that it was available to some people using a trick involving a PS3, so it was less extensively tested.
Known issues
Not all homebrews will work with VHBL, head over to the gigantic VHBL Homebrew thread for details on what games work or not.
There is a bug with the default menu (wMenu) which might tell you with a red screen, something along the lines of:”Error! Couldn’t find any homebrews in ms0:/PSP/VHBL/ Please check your config file and/or restart VHBL”
This is a known issue, and happens only as long as you don’t have any homebrew installed. To get rid of this error message, press the LEFT TRIGGER on your console, this will force wMenu to go to the SAVEDATA subfolder.
The issue is a simple one but I was too lazy to fix that. People with the right coding skills might want to have a look at the source of wMenu here and send me a patch.
alternatively, you can give a try to an other menu such as 138Menu here
Thanks for your support
Qwikrazor87 worked on this exploit on his free time and did not ask for anything in return.

Hey, i have the VHBL and the game exploit, but i dont have any psp saves, so i think i may just update it, is that a bad choice?
you can easily find psp saves with google. I am not sure I understand your question. What update? There is no update beyond 2.12 as of today?
I’m sorry for asking this again but could someone please help me I’ve tried to find more on this issue but can’t seem to find anything I’ve got vhbl running but can’t seem to install any HB on it I extract the rar file archive it change it to store with the name in caps installed.zip and I take that zip file and put into a random game save but do t have any luck installing g the homebrew. I’ve made sure the HB is for golor and I’ve tried different menus and homebrew and game saves.. Does anyone have any idea what I’m doing wrong? I’m running 2.12 with vhbl..
That folder you extracted is the save
do not re-zip it
that is if you got it from SMOKE’s thread
Hey guys, I was looking on the deep net, an I found that there are actually already Vita FW exploits.
nope. Hint: if it asks you to fill a survey to get the exploit, it’s a scam.
