Debug PSVita 2.61 found in Madrid Games Week
As some of you may now, I’m spanish so I managed to go to the first edition of Madrid Games Week (Similar to Gamescom in Germany, but I think it’s much smaller here). Everything was quite cool, I had the chance to try the new Call of Duty: Ghosts and meet some gaming YouTubers, try the XBOX One with FIFA 14 (Don’t buy it, it’s worse than previous years, even for the next-gen consoles)… So yeah, it was fun. But probably the most impressive thing about that was that I found a debug PSVita like TheZ had done in Gamescom for 2.06 (I think :D).
This Vita wasn’t updated to version 3.00 (Or build 3.000.000) so even if I tried to connect via Wifi it would have asked me to update and I didn’t take my laptop with Charles Proxy :), so no luck. There where a lot of retail and debug Vitas with absolutely no lock whatsoever. I managed to try most of them, but there were a lot of members from Sony checking what everyone was doing and I didn’t have enough time to make a video so I could only take some pics 😉
So, this is what I managed to take pictures of: (didn’t have much time until the Sony guy asked me what I was doing)
(Don’t know if publishing the Activation key is legal or not, so if any Sony member comes to this site, just PM and I will remove it 😉 )
And this is it, hope you liked it, and to finish, I will leave you some pics from the first edition of Madrid Games Week:
Its possible to enter to debug mode in 2.61?
No
Nice mr jamesbond
Nice mr jamesbond . Hope somebody can use tho e keys and develope something
“Activation key” is a misnomer. It’s actually the id you give Sony to request an activation file every 30 days, so if someone steals it, it’s useless.
In the Electronic Game Show in México, the PS Vitas with the Tearway demo were in debug firmware…
what is “debug psvita” ?
It’s a special PS Vita system that has special firmware that is used to make and test games. It has some special features.
thanks ,sounds cool 🙂
Take out “make” and you’re right. Only the devkit can debug code. This is actually a test kit (there’s no such thing as a “debug vita”)
Yes I know that I was wrong when I said “make” but it is easier to normal people to understand where it is used. And sorry about that mistake with debug and test. I never remember the difference with debug and test.
Welcome to Madrid
I would have loved to be there, but I’m a bit far from Madrid and real life stuff is more demanding than that.
What would happened?, If you stole that vita lol
You could use it only limited time. Because Sony has there a special code thingy where you need to activate it every 30 days.
I have to be honest… I’m a “little” *** off I didn’t hear about this… Why the heck do I only find out about these things once they have already passed by 🙁 (and the first one nonetheless ; . ;).
I’ve been looking for time/money to go to Gamescon this next year (never went to a convention 🙁 ), and this one that I could have easily gone to, and (probably) get a place to stay for “free”, I miss. I’m from Portugal, so even the language would have been a breeze of fresh hair… especially when compared to german XD.
Anyway, thanks for the nice espionage work XD, and I hope you had a lot of fun there 🙂
It would be so amazing to have that Package installer on my personal Vita. I’ve read something that I would be possible to enable that on normal Vita but I haven’t seen anything about that.
An unlocked Vita so “close” yet so far….i wonder if we will ever get to see our Vita’s fully hacked unlocked. Probably never since X1 and PS4 is out, hackers will focus on them instead.
Well lets say that we are not even close. We know little to nothing about Vita. We don’t know about the memory mapping (I can be wrong) and there is so much things we need to know before “hacked” or “unlocked” Vita.
Vaya! Por fin un Español!
También me pasé por el Madrid Games Week, pero lo de las Vitas no lo vi, como me llevé la mía… esas son las que estaban al lado de las cabinas de GT6?
Es curioso, ya noté algo raro en ellas a distancia, la gente se quejaba de bugs y siempre había algun armario de 2 metros del Staff mirando, pude ver en el WRC4 cómo el coche volaba y se estampaba contra todo, rebotando y girando en cuanto hacía contacto con algo
Por cierto, lo mismo nos vimos y todo, ¿Fuiste el Domingo? El domingo estuve con el Drive Club y gané la competición! Los muy cabrones todavía no me han enviado la tarjeta PsPlus y ha pasado casi una semana… Aaaaaargh
Bueno, un saludo colega
Sayonara!
