Release: VHBL for Vita Firmware 3.15 (Space Invaders Extreme exploit)
The time has finally come to release the latest VHBL port for firmware 3.15, running through the Space Invaders Extreme exploit!
A few days ago we publicly announced the name of a new exploitable game for the PS Vita: this is the PSP game “Space Invaders Extreme”, that will let you run VHBL, a homebrew loader for the PS Vita. Sony, as usual, removed the game from their stores, and will most likely put it back once the exploit is patched.
People who were able to purchase and download the game in time will now be able to run the exploit.
As a reminder, it is strongly recommended to use OpenCMA, and to make a backup of your Vita memory card, to avoid losing the game, as Sony will not let you re-download it without forcing you to update and lose the exploit.
What is VHBL
VHBL is a homebrew loader for the PS Vita, running through a game exploit in the PSP emulator of the Vita. The exploit is triggered by a game that people need to purchase through the Sony PSN. VHBL lets people run homebrews and emulators. It does not let people run PSP “backups” or “isos”, let alone Vita pirated games.
Download and installation
Credits go to Wistine for the exploit and VHBL port.
You can download VHBL for Firmware 3.15 (Space Invaders Extreme Exploit) on the VHBL page, as usual. That page contains explanations on how to run the exploit, install homebrews, etc…
I can’rmt find the space invaders extreme link on the vhbl website? Can someone help me out?
I can’t find*
Nevermind, I found it. Thanks for the exploit
This can be a caching issue on the site. If other people run into this issue: try force-reloading the vhbl page with ctrl+f5
Freezes while installing any homebrew. After some time freezed, space invaders gets terminated and “An error occured”-message comes up
Try 138Menu: http://wololo.net/downloads/index.php/download/8184
I’m allready using 138menu, i noticed it only freezes when I’m installing an Emulator, while the Roms are beeing extracted. So i believe it has problems with handling big files
cool
WOLOLOLO
Finally 🙂
I opened Vhbl and it sayds couldnt find any homebrew in psp/VHBL… Please help idk how to do this
I get a C1-2858-3 error when I try to load the game. How can I fix this?
i got C1-2858-3 too in pspfiler
it said in his compatibility test psp filer crashes amd doesnt work
I’v test the V2 file in the forum and psp filer works now
I have a little problem, i can’t see all of the ready save file i have transfer and when i install one of them, it’s don’t install of of the INSTALL.ZIP content :/
Yeah, i have the same… I’ve try with 138menu also and it’s the same thing, vhbl does not detect any INSTALL.ZIP, don’t know what i’ve miss 🙁
same problem… does not detect any INSTALL.ZIP, don’t know what we’ve miss 🙁
maybe cause i’m French 😀
No, french isn’t the problem, i’m french also ^^
But i’ve found why i’ve the problem, for myself it’s because i downloaded the wrong file, in fact we have the link for the desc of the homebrew (with few download link) and the link of the prepared package (all of this on the page http://www.wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=10859 )
In conclusion we must use the link always named “download here”, it was my problem, not necessarly yours :p
try zipping it again with zero compression
Tried with many homebrews prepacked nothing worked :s
i just found out u need another save to put install.zip inside,u dont even need a game,just any random gamesave,then cpy to vita,then in vhbl browser,go to the game save (ulxxxxxxxx) and it will begin installing.
Wow, sounds like a lot of problems. I hope I don’t have trouble when (really hoping I don’t miss the next NA exploit) I try to install VHBL.
please this is my first hack for ps vita as you add games?
by the way you dont have to load the save game ….just transfer the exploit… then simply start spaceinvaders and go right to multiplayer and practice,, it autoloads your previous save file and puts you right into vhbl
for C1-2858-3 error correction maybe changing the language to English …. ps vita on the other hand if you want to install the zip put everything in capitals example (ZERO.ZIP) aver hopefully helped a little if not no heed me luck friends
WOLOLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
AIE AIE AIE! THANKS!!!
cant install nothing, only mymenu
:/
cant install nothing, only mymenu… :/
my vhbl does not detect any INSTALL.ZIP!!!!
Any solution? i cant install a games, no detect INSTALL.ZIP on nesterj, on snes yes but i open a game and the vhbl crashes!
Same problem on INSTALL.ZIP please wololo fix it!
the content manager (in the ps vita) doesnt detect snes9x, just the space invaders… why is that?
Guys, need your advanced help! I bought that game via PS3 and managed to download it to PS3, but however there is no way to copy it to PS Vita. So I installed CFW 4.55 on PS3. Is there a way to copy game to PS Vita with CFW? Thanks for any helpful reply 🙂
i do copy INSTALL.ZIP to other PSP save. and transfer to psvita but not working…install nothing. get error message.
ERROR!
couldn’t find any homebrew in EAN/
Please check your config file and/or restart HBL
Please help if someone know…. thz
@John.G
push L Button and then navigate to “savedata”. pick a homebrew and push X or O (i forgot).
sorry for my bad english.
but the INSTALL.ZIP doesnt detected
u need the emulator in a seperate save,even if u dont have the game
thanks…
I don’t know why Sony fights these. The Vita has next to no games, this is all the fun we get on the Vita. Besides, Sony makes money on the exploited games. The most money Vita is making is probably from people buying the game with the exploits.
VHBL is awesome! Thanks for everything you guys do! ^u^
The roms are not detect in gpSP, why ?
Go here to v2 fix= http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=38926
Thanks!!!!!!!!! NesterJ founds whit the fix and gpsp, snes and a lot of homebrews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
still nothing
I can unzip snes9x without 138menu, but nothing happens
with 138 and cant even unzip anything
great
asd not use 138menu use the original, working nes snes and all homebrews
Thanks a lot V2 work great for me !!!
@Juanmahl
my instruction is without 138Menu.
when you use 138Menu try 138MenuL3 not 138MenuL4.
worked for me.
lets face it, guys
this is a useless ***
I really cant believe that in 2014 “this is the” method for playing emulators on the vita. Pathetic.
Complain when you find a better method.
better than this? you should try install dos6.22 on your vita, and ask usain bolt to run on it
Okaaaay….. He might get shoe marks on my screen though…
why all of you guys getting error? mine is perfect i install all my favorite homebrew
How did I miss this!? It got pulled so fast! We need to be on an email list or something.
My brand new slim runs this flawless its a U.S. brdlands 2 edition on an australia psn I live in the U.S. too sooo awesome thank you thank you thank you to allllll your hard work for this
please someone help me i cant run homebrews they wont show up in the insatall folder
i noticed if you physically extract the install zip then rezip it the results are not the same
as just copying into the install zip and using the store method
make sure its all in caps
and the directory structure is setup as for instance Daedalus64/data.bin,install.zip,param.sfo,icon0
also make sure the install zip if you did extract it and rezipped it is setup as follows
install.zip/daedalus/roms,eboot…etc
Another huge bug ive noticed ..its an error in the installer code..if you install an emulator.and the roms have too many letters weird characters, or too many spaces in the name the install freezes and c108 errors and sometimes requires a reboot.. simply shortening the rom titles allows them to all pass through
Like
007 the world is not enough.z64
Change to
007TWINE.z64
have a ps vita with king of pool, and fw 3:01 tnv9.6
I use theme at the moment and works psp, ps1 games and emulators.
I would use 128menu l4. how can I install? I install over the top? I will continue with my psp games and ps1 emulators?
someone?

Hello hackers! Could you just hack on ps vita without any exploitable games from psn store? Come on hackers, i know y’all have talent. You should able to hack on ps vita just like psp. I wish that alex dark should not leave psp scene . #justsaying
when is the nets TN-V coming ?
Awesome work on the 3.15 VHBL! I just bought a second PSVita so I can have one 3.01 ecfw one and a updated firmware one. Got the second Vita from a pawn shop and it so happens the fw is on 3.01, it’s a shame I have to update it, but I only need one on 3.01 right now.
