Auto-h-encore: Automate (most of) h-encore hack installation on your PS Vita
Hacker TheFlow released h-encore a few days ago to the Vita scene’s delight. 2 years after Henkaku, it is now possible for users on the latest firmwares to hack their PS Vita.
People have had a few issues with the installation process however, which by default requires no less than 12 steps, some of which are a bit confusing to noobs (yeah, I’m talking about you). Seriously though, installing h-encore can get quite confusing.
Thankfully, multiple developers are coming to the rescue by providing tools to help automate some of the process involved in installing h-encore.
One of these tools is auto-h-encore by developer noahc3. The tool, which is for windows only, sits at version 0.2.2 at the time of this writing (will multiple updates a day, it seems!) and will automate the following steps (from the Readme):
This application does everything short of installing QCMA/integrating libVitaMTP. That means:
- Automatically downloads required tools (psvimgtools, pkg2zip, bittersmile demo and h-encore itself)
- Allows user to import necessary files if they’ve already downloaded them (optional)
- Grabs CMA encryption key from your account ID
- Unpackages bittersmile and repackages it with your encryption key and h-encore
- Trims excess bittersmile demo files to reduce h-encore filesize from ~240MB to ~17MB (optional)
- Moves finished files to your QCMA directory for copying to your PS Vita
This application does not:
- Get your AID automatically
- Send h-encore to your PS Vita
Basically, you still need QCMA.
Multiple automation tools for h-encore have been made available by now, so pick the one you like (and feel free to mention them in the comments below!). But auto-h-encore is one potential option that seems to get most of the job done, with a nice GUI.
Download auto-h-encore
You can download auto-h-encore from the developer’s github here. Installation and usage instructions can be found in the Readme, as well as in the tool’s GUI itself.

Owww yeah…this is easy
First
Not really…
Not that re-installing henkaku and vitashell bothers me. Its so not a problem.
But how about an auto feature that installs the two software sets automatically upon booting the system?
Well basically you cannot set anything to automatically open upon booting the system cause its not hacked upon rebooting, thus no way to “customize” it
I have a demo psvita on 3.68 , will this work ? can i then disable the idu thing ? my AID will be shown as 000000000000000 and so on , cause device is demo , thou im using my psn on it
i bought this vita from someone , who actually made a big mistake of updating his vita while it was on idu mode
Yes it will work, I had to do this a few days ago.
After you install h-encore you can use this to get out of idu mode:

Wow that was quick! a friend of mine wants me to install this, I told them I wanted to wait for an easy installer as I truthfully couldn’t be bothered with the original install method ( I work 7 hours a day as a technician, don’t judge me) but now I have no more excuses haha,
all im waiting on now is a vpk updater like the flows previous 3.65 hack so I can install it with ease on my 3.60 vita, its hardly even worth me updating (for my own needs) but if its a simple VPK, may as well haha
Qcma didn’t detect m’y vita can someone help me ?
My QCMA won’t detect my Vita via USB no matter what I try. How I got around this was to use connect the two via WiFi instead. If you’re having issues with the USB drivers, I recommend this; worked very well for me.
You might need to replace the drivers for your vita.
Do it with “Zadig”
Worked like a charm for me
Turn off your wifi and restart your Vita. Then try connecting it again
Doesn’t work fr me. I have a ps tv on 3.65 but can’t connect to qcma to my pstv without updating. I tried everything and nothing works. Qcma doesn’t connect to pstv without updating to latest official firmware and I really wanted to have the henkaku enso version installed on my pstv.
Well I have the exact same problem except my PSTV is on 3.63. Every time I try to connec in order to get on 3.65 via QCMA it wants me to update to the latest firmware first.
All the tutorials are for the vita only it seems… 🙁
Update with the DNS method found here: https://vita.cfw.guide/guide/updating-to-3.65/
Setting your network DNS settings to those will also prevent the update to 3.68 triggering.
thanks thanks this works fine on my vita in te nederlands yes yes
Wololo, I know this isn’t related to the site but I ended up getting one of those PC support pop-ups while only having your site open. I know it’s whatever ad networks fault for that popup but I just wanted to notify you of this happening on your site.
ivew syucceffully installed the encore on 3.65 thanck to this tool, how can i update to 3.68 and install encore?
Will optional trim allow to use ur0 on phat Vitas?
now I can get back 200+ space
How to install enso? And whats the advantage with plain h-enso and with h-encore wiyh enso?
installed H-encore but it changed my system to 3.67 instead of 3.68-变革. I don’t see the HENKAKU option in my setting either. I try to re-install henkaku in H-encore, but no matter how many time I do it, it saids “install” instead of “re-install”. After that it still stay as 3.67. However I have no problem to run my old games (I used to have 3.65 enso) on this 3.67 system. Anyone know how to fix it?
Anyone else have their psvita shut off in sleep mode after launching h-encore app and installing the exploit?
This only happens when I install the exploit through the h-encore app, any ideas?
It won’t let me copy H-encore says I’m not the owner and my AID was exactly what it says in the folder name im suppose to lift it from, any ideas anyone ?
Hi i just installed H-encore, and after a day im having GPU CRASH, when i put my vita in airplain mode it delays the frecuency of the crashes but still happens. And last time, after rebooting my psvita i got a graphic glitch, making like lil slim spikes (graphics) out of the bubbles in the main menu. Anyone else with this bugs? Anyone knows how to fix this? (the GPU crash) thanks
