6.61 Adrenaline 4.1 released!
It seems that ‘TheFlow’ simply can’t stop developing for our beloved console. Thanks to Adrenaline, FW 3.60 has become the superior firmware and this allows everyone to make the most of their PSVita. Adrenaline, probably his most mentioned release, has been updated to version 4.1.
What’s Adrenaline?
Adrenaline is an eCFW that via taiHEN can do more amazing stuff than older eCFW hacks did. Apart from getting XMB, being able to play homebrew, PSP games and simply use your PSVita as a PSP, you can make use of various other features. These are the features that Adrenaline brings to the table:
- Screen filter support
- Savestate support (even works for PSX games)
- PSX support
- 64MB support
- Ability to use USB Mode to access ux0 via the PSP emulator
- Plugin support
- Ability to use the Vita’s right analogue stick with games if they have a plugin that enables this. Camera Patch Light has a whole slew of patches to make best use of the right analogue stick in PSP games
- Ability to update Adrenaline via the Network Update feature in XMB
- Much more (and more may come in the future since ‘TheFlow’ kinda doesn’t really like to stop developing for the Vita)
What’s been updated/changed in Adrenaline 4.1?
Adrenaline version 4.1 has the following changes:
- A bug was fixed in which the recovery menu wouldn’t open if you pressed the R trigger when you opened Adrenaline
- Fixed an issue with the memory card mounting routine to avoid some savedata corruption
- The incorrect scaling of some PSX games with the PSTV is corrected
As you may see, this is mostly a bug fix update but it’s recommended you update to it especially since it’s relatively easy now. Avoiding some savedata corruption is always a good idea in my books!
How do I get it?
You can do the following things to download the update from Adrenaline itself:
- Go to Network Update in XMB and then choose ‘Update via Internet’
- You will have to set up a connection if you haven’t already done that
- Follow the instructions on screen to update Adrenaline
If you haven’t already got Adrenaline on your system, it’s recommended you use ‘Freakler’s’ Adrenaline Easy Installer as it works relatively well. It has already been updated to accommodate v4.1

Thank you for the article, Wololo. Looking forward to future updates, especially the memory card adapter.
I recently finished Jeanne D’Arc on Adrenaline, huge fan of this genre, been in love with it since FF Tactics.
Currently playing Digimon Adventure in Japanese, language is perfect for my level (JLPT N3).
Big thanks to TheFlow for making this possible.
Thanks for the comments, Aurora, Italkgame and Joel16. Looking forward to future updates.
Pretty sure the article topic isn’t list diks that Binbo wants to suk, but whatever.
pretty sure any of the posts you’ve thanked wololo for hosting on his site that were written by other people that you’ve never credited didn’t tell you to brown nose either
Thank you for being a fan, you can enjoy chewing on my feces as well while you’re here.
Does the ps1 games on PS TV have the vibration function enabled?? If not I will continue on 3.20… I ask this because adrenaline is just PSP mode and inside is the ps1…
Yes just like you’re playing native psx on PS TV
Perfect, thank you
What do you mean? Controller vibration has been working for me just fine with Adrenaline 4
Just that. As far as I understand adrenaline is on PSP mode, PSP don’t have vibration function. and about a month ago PS1 games inside adrenaline didn’t have sound. Thats was my doubt, if the vibration of the controller works. I’m still using Total-Noobs TN-X just for that, runing PS1 natively.
Thank you
AFAIK TN-X PSX is on PSP Mode too.
Yeah, I had that doubt too, but PS1 games inside Adrenaline work and act the same way they do outside Adrenaline. You can see that as, after entering a Ps1 game, when you access the game settings, the settings are unique for each ps1 game and you can choose the game’s own left stick function, memory card settings, etc
PS1 speed confirmed still NOT fixed, guys.
Thanks!
The Tales of Phantasia english patched pbp still doesn’t work, all my hopes killed.
Works with Enso Beta, updating via Network/Rebooting all went fine. Great work guys!
You’re a hero for being in the Enso Beta, mate.
my pstv gives me error when updating from network update, error 20000006, my psvita fat worked, but my pstv gives me that error. I have checked my wifi settings and all is ok, i had to manually update my pstv, but if there is a new update in the future i might have the same issue, did someone else have this problem?
This is the same for my PSTV – hopefully the Adrenaline installer will always be available until it works for PSTV
This new update actually ruined Psx screen resizing on PSTV xD It used to be a-ok with the original screen size, as the height would be perfect in 4:3.. all sizes suck now :p i’ve just downgraded and will keep enjoying Adrenaline 🙂
Hey There!
Im pretty new to this, so please be kind. 🙂 I installed adrenaline 6.61, and a psp game (thug 2 remix) and when i try to save i cant. I tried to save from the adrenaline menu, but it says its not avaiable yet. When i try to save ingame it says that i dont have enough memory. I have like 5 gbs of free space and i have the 6.61 version too.
The thing i did is that is downloaded a savestate with the game’s id and copied to the folder where the other saves have to be. What might the problem be? Please help me out! 🙂 Thanks in advance!
