TN-Hen: new video showing the VSH Menu, and release date announced
After several weeks without official news, Total_Noob posted yesterday a new video of his Hen showing the VSH menu in action. The VSH menu is a feature that used to give access to basic functionality (choice of the ISO mode, etc…) on Custom Firmwares. In the case of unhackable motherboards, this menu is becoming a much more essential feature, as a “replacement” of the recovery menu. On TN’s video, we can see that his recovery menu has a bit more than what we were used to so far:
- CPU Clock (change the CPU clock in the XMB)
- CPU Clock Game (change the CPU clock in Games. It’s pretty cool to have a separate feature, you can then run full speed in games, and “normal speed” in the XMB, to save on the battery)
- Fake Region (This will probably allow EU/US owners to access features usually only useful in Japan such as oneseg – not that it is useful…- and hopefully to play all region UMD)
- Skip Gameboot (self explanatory)
- Hide Mac Address (A useless feature, except for paranoid people who think that Sony will waste their time hunting you down based on your Mac address in a youtube video)
- TN Network update (A system to bypass the automatic Sony update, and automatically get updates for the Hen by Wifi maybe?)
- Hide Pic1 & Pic0
- Spoof Version (display a different version number in the system info)
- Protect Flash 0 (A feature we mentioned earlier, to prevent programs from writing in the flash, this will hopefully be VERY helpful to prevent stupid people from installing a CFW on a 3000 or a pspgo…)
Looks pretty cool overall. Clearly Total_Noob is working on more than a Homebrew enabler here, this looks more and more like an LCFW rather than a “simple” Hen.
On the video you can see that the Hen currently runs on 6.20 through HBL. Total_Noob announced earlier that he would release this version first, and would focus on TN Hen 6.35 later on, but he also said yesterday on pspking.de that he would release a downgrade homebrew (for 6.20 owners who want to go to 5.03 maybe?)
Total_Noob also announced that the Hen for 6.20 will be released sometimes between December 20th and December 24th on the site pspgen.com
Can’t wait!!!

Its 21st!! so hard to wait 😀
Hi, I have a question regarding 6.35 firmware.
Basically, I want to log my PSP Go onto the PSN Servers to receive my three promotional games. From what I understand, those games become associated with your PSN account as if they were purchases. I wouldn’t mind waiting a bit more time for TN Hen 6.35 to release.
Would it be prudent for me to update my Go to 6.35, given the fact that I don’t mind waiting for TN Hen 6.35? Or is there some detail I’m not aware of that I shouldn’t be updating my firmware to 6.35? I’m only asking because I’d want to get my promotional games before Sony goes ahead with a firmware 6.36.
I wanna noe if we can play ISO games in PSP by any chance?
OR
Wololo, are you gonna release a ISO Loader any where before or in JAN???
