Release: TN-V4 for PS Vita 3.01 (and below)
The long wait is over! Almost one year after his latest release, Total_Noob is back with an eCFW for the PS Vita.
Total_Noob’s TN-V4 lets you run a variety of PSP Homebrews, plugins, and emulators on your PS Vita. It is compatible up to firmware 3.01 included (the latest PS Vita firmware at the time of this writing), and requires you to own one of the exploitable games that was revealed recently in our Ninja release.

How to download and install TN-V4
For now, the installation process is a bit rough, but I’m sure our community will have tutorials and more “user friendly” packages up in a few hours. In the meantime, please follow the instructions below:
Downloads
- download 660.PBP Here. (choose the PSP 1000/2000/3000 version, *not* the PSP Go version). Depending on the download links, if the file you download is named EBOOT.PBP, rename it into 660.PBP
- Download TN-V4’s binary files here
- Download the TN-V4 Loader for your game here. Choose the download that matches your game and region!
- If you don’t have it already, download and install OpenCMA
Preparation
- Extract the savedata from the TN-V4 loader of your game on your hard drive, in your CMA’s PSAVEDATA/xxxxx folder (where xxxx are a bunch of letters and numbers).
- Copy TN.BIN, FLASH0.TN, and 660.PBP in the game’s savedata folder (where you can find ‘H.BIN’)
- Copy the game’s savedata to your Vita, using OpenCMA
Running TN-V4
- Now run the exploit for the game (the trigger varies on the game. For 101-in-1 megamix, just loading the savedata should be enough) and TN-V should start.
- On the first boot, the recovery menu will appear automatically.
- Select ‘Advanced ->’ menu and then select ‘Install 6.60 files’ (this step is only needed if you’ve never used TN-V4 before).
- Enjoy the install progress.
- After the install is done, go back and exit the recovery menu.
- Enjoy TN’s awesome work.
If the instructions above are not enough to get you started, head over to hackinformer.com for more details and files. You can also ask for help in the comments section below, or in the forums
What to do next?
We’ll try to keep you up to date with more user friendly packages and tutorials, as I said above I’m sure they will come soon. Now get crazy and start downloading a few emulators and homebrews, we have a huge list here, and here
Please post feedback and issues below. This is a huge release with many files and many possible scenarios, so it is highly possible a few mistakes slipped in the release. If it doesn’t work for you right now, please report your problems as precisely as possible, and don’t lose your temper!

Cant get the PSP to see any homebrews or ISO’s
Ive named everything properly from what I can tell, and from what ive read, the ISO’s wont working until I can get pspfiler working so I can make a Folder with it.
Had a folder named “PSP” and a “GAME” Folder inside that, and the homebrew emus and or files like pspfiler inside “GAME”
Right clicked on the “PSP” folder after all this was done and selected “add an archive” named it “INSTALL.zip” (zip is file extension not part of the name) and transferred that to the saved folder using content manager.
All that and never see anything in that folder besides the ps1 games I purchased and have on the vita already, and the stupid 101 in 1 megamix game
ideas?
Answering my own question. even file extensions need to be in caps
Question. I am on 2.61 and accidentally deleted Fieldrunners off my vita. I know Sony patched Charles so I can no longer get it back and the OpenCMA does’doesn’t work for US. My friend is on the newest 3.01 update and he could not get it to show up on OpenCMA either. My question is….Is there any other game I could buy on my PS3 that will show up on OpenCMA USA and transfer or is everything pacthed? I am new. If I download Urbanix or Mega-Mix will they be transferable for me in US? Hope you understand and can help me. Thanks
King of Pool is back right? So can I just download it through the ps store on my PS3 and tranfer it via OpenCMA to my Vita and it will work because I am still on 2.61? What can I do? Will it show up? UnLike Fieldrunners =/
Hey i need help….i cant get open cma 6 to work. after i open the run file my vita just doesnt connect to my pc anymore.
have you tried to update the official CMA first then run the open CMA installer?
i had this problem then i did update first before running open CMA installer.
hope this works for you. good luck.
Wololo, I have been wondering why I got banned from the forum? I was shocked, never did anything wrong like spamming or whatsoever rude. Please help me get back to my account here. Many thanks
Anybody know how to install plugin? I know how to enable it,but don’t know where do u need to put plugin file.
nvm. i downloaded kop and tnv4 is working again. yay
where do I get the Roms for the emulators
marcus, google is easy. just google gba, snes..etc roms
can it be any ROM or does have to be specific for the PS vita hack
Iso still not showing up on tn-v4
Please help me i can’t see megamix 101 in 1 exploit when copy already.this my video problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CPht6bNjLw&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Sorry for my record
So, for us who doesnt have a megamic games in vita doesnt have a chance to use TN-V4 or there is a chance but need to wait for another game exploit ?
http://wololo.net/2013/12/17/missed-the-ninja-release-dont-worry-we-have-another-one-for-you/
Just took me 2 hours to figure that out…
Just normally installed newest CMA, run Open CMA over it.
As it didnt work, i figured out that the run.bat couldnt found CMA.exe. Therefore it just creates a CMA.exe~.
I just deleted the old CMA.exe and renamed the new CMA.exe~ to CMA.exe (did the same for the CMADownloader.exe).
Didnt worked for now, so i chose to try changing the language.
Picked English United States since im living in germany and had german as language, then a restart of my PSVita.
Working now for me. If you have the same problem try this 🙂
Thanks it worked
The wait was driving me crazy, but it was all worth it! Thanks guys!!! FORMIDABLE!!!

http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=35888
AND system language – English ^^
I Got to the part where you press “install 6.60 files” in the recovery menu, but when i try to install i get an error that states “Installing 6.60 files…..Error opening 660.PBP (0x80010002).” what am I doing wrong? I changed the name of the EBOOT.PBP to 660.PBP …. oh by the way my region is U.S
ok I found the problem.. The 660.PBP didnt go in the correct folder …(theres two foldersthe King of Pool) so i placed it on the opposite folder and it installed perfectly!
which folder i keep getting that error
just did this and everything went smooth, thanks for this!
Ok so new v2 fix workjs but how to get our cwcheats to work again as in seplugins?
I cant play new Vita games with this though? in the psp xmb it says 6.60 tnv-4 but what about playing Vita games? like new Vita games with a higher firmware???
They will most likely block the exploit games when the new firmware comes out, so if you update you lose the ability to run TNV4.
So this is a double edged sword, one that want to use homebrew use this hack and exploit for the game, and the ones who want to play new Vita games MUST upgrade, well so far all the homebrew i need now is on my new phone, but the advantage is psp games on this but not new Vita games.
I thought this new V4 would be able to play new games but duh of course we have to use the new exploits to play the current fw games, well i hope the games are still available but not patched for new firmware.. a double edged sword I so want to play YS badly, soon I just use my phone for all homebrew.
Is it me or did SONY pull King of Pool from the North America PSN Store already?
help please,i was able to copy the whole files but after that,i try to check the new file on menu,but it doest give me the option to load it,because it doesnt exist,,help please and cheers.
Hi everyone. How can I suscribe to ‘Ninja release’ or something to get news about explot games and release… Always a new xploit is revealed in PSN-latinoamérica the game exploitable is no available anymore 🙁 :/ I’m just paying a PLUS+ account in order to buy a game to install TNV but I just can’t. If you could let me know a better way to get the game and exploit fast I’ll appreciate.
PD: Sorry for my bad english and thanks to Wololo for the news 😉
when i copy the tnv loader from cma it doesn’t show in my live area screen help?
i have a problem, i try to put the savedata in my vita but it looks like a corrupt file, i dont know how to fix it :/
Thanks man. Worked perfectly first time round!
So i just got a vita and i was wondering does this crack allow me to play all the exploited psp games for free? And can I still go to psn and play online with real bought vita games if i cracked it?
The megamix exploit isn’t showing on the homescreen even after i copied the savedata to my PS vita. Any help with that?
Thank you so much for your work team i am really enjoying my vita again!!!
Where can I find the loader for the new exploit game?
If it’s not out now, where should I expect to find it later?
Sorry for my impatience, I appreciate all the work.
