Tutorial: Dump your own Vita IDPS!
We all know that the Vita PSP Emulator was vulnerable as heck, so this time too. The PSP Emulator and the Vita itself shares the same Infos, like the IDPS. It was also possible to grab it easily from the PSP side trough calling the ID Storage Keys like Yoti IDPS Dumper for PSP does do it. I dumped also the IDPS from my Vita and compared it with an PSP IDPS from the same Region, there also use the same Target ID (6th Byte) as example 0x03 for Japan or 0x05 for Europe. The dumping process seems at the moment to work only via TN-V, the ARK eCFW seems not to recognize the functions to call the ID Storage. So if you’re interested Qwikrazor87 released TN-V11 (this time a stable Version from Total_Noob) for FW 3.5X with his PBOOT Bubble Method, so it was now possible to make a PS Vita IDPS research!
All you need is a PS Vita / TV with FW 3.52 or below, well you can use it on 3.55 too but if you don’t setup it before you got no chance to install it (yet).
- Setup the TN-V11 eCFW on your PS Vita / TV trough following Qwikrazor87’s instructions.
- Download Yoti’s PSP IDPS Dumper and rename the EBOOT.PBP in his Package too RECOVERY.PBP and put it with the regedit.prx into the Exploit Folder.
- Launch TN-V11 and go to the TN Recovery Menu > Run program at /TNV_00000/RECOVERY.PBP and start it.
- If the IDPS Dumper was successfully executed your now be able to see your Vita IDPS. Congrats!
- DO NOT share ever the IDPS, otherwise you will be banned very quickly from Sony if someone abuse it.

Srry, noob here, what is IDPS?
Id playstation network
IDPS or console ID, think of it as a ticket to go online on psn servers or play online or any sort of online activity. In vita and psp scene, it is not much cared for since no bans has been reported on handhelds, however people who play online on jailbroken ps3s get banned every now and then for modding, cheating or just going online with a jailbroken ps3 in general. Once their ps3 IDPS is banned, there is no way to go online even if they make a new account except for using another valid, working IDPS. This is where one can dump idps from from sources such as handhelds, broken ps3s,etc.
I love you.
its kind of like your PlayStation’s own “username/password”….that is how Sony bans consoles from PSN….if you mod a game (ie, Call of Duty) to your advantage (such as no-reload, invisibility, etc..) and they ban you, its your PSID they ban…if you get ahold of another PSID (such as the one from the PSP), you can change the PSID on the PS3 and get back online….its like a new “username/password” has been created for the PS3….
SO what this use for?
IDPS dumped!
First
Question plz…
What exactly can we do by researching into this IDPS thingy….????
Can/will it allow vita piracy??
No… why is it every time something is released? That is one of the questions. Unless they specifically state “this allows piracy,” then just assume it doesn’t.
Error LoadStart returned 0x80010002
Firmware 3.52.
rename the regedit.prx so that everything is in capital letters.
what do you mean? i get that error too
That worked, thanks!
Thats great news!
Can you explain me what is IDPS?
First, also how to we rewrite idps?
Frist
so dear wololo,
first hacking Q.
how do i use the eml trick witch is native.
to install a native homebrewloader or uvloader or etc …
so i dont have to use rejuvenate eatch time …
the whitelist generator for me.
the thunderbirdmail manipulation didnt.
so cant install ark2 or tnv11 etc …
qcma dont work with versions mitchmaches.
(between latest on vita and 3.18 or 3.20 on pstv.
opencma does tho.
but can whitelist xD
so my question is can we expect more generators ?
next can i use a vita native keyboard and mouse app to controll pc
vmc client en server ?
other operating systems ?
what can i do with idps except whitelist a ps3 ?
If you can’t use the English language, go to your own specific language forum and type your message there, I’m sure they will be able to assist you since what you wrote there, does not make much sense.
where is rejuvenate ps vita??????
What am I able to do with this ??
You can dump your vita IDPS.
And IDPS of a PSP as well. In case of Vita it’s shared between Vita and its ePSP.
The only use so far is unbanning your CFW PS3 that received a console ban. It could be used to resign Vita savegames too, I suppose. For now it’s just a way to salvage something useful out of a dying PSP motherboard (or an already dead one, if you made a backup of its idStorage earlier).
I assume this works on TN-V 10 etc?
Not First
0x05 for EU IDPS? Where put To ms0:/psp/
Lol about 99 percent of ppl dont know wut to do with this even when they know what this is. So basically i am 1 of those 99 percent (ಥ ͜ ಥ)
It’s kind of obvious. It lets you go online psn network and even game servers. Now we can play online multiplayer games without being on the most recent firmware and we don’t have to set up a proxy to use things like netflix. So sad people don’t realize how big of a deal this exploit is.
Bro, stop. What are you a *** troll or something? Every thread I’m on your giving someone *** advice. Just stop. That isn’t at all “obviously” what this is for. Didn’t you bother reading it even before posting? Go back to failing on your WiiU or wherever u came from kid.
They see me trolling, they hating.
IDPS is the ID your console uses to get on PSN
Sony identifies you by your IDPS
like on PS3 when people got banned they would “buy” another IDPS and get back online 🙂
i was unable to do that . it hass some error
You’re almost a life saver to me. However, my device has been deactivated after switching the memory card event. Now, still figuring how to obtain IDPS without PSPEmu… stuck and headache…
Does this work on lower versions of TN-V?
Time for the big question: could this possibly lead to a PExploit style exploit or does the vita encrypt backups in a different manner from the PS3?
I wonder too!!!
hmm. could we use this to decrpyt psvita gamesaves or even game backups? or are they encrypted differantly to the ps3? because if we could decrpyt psvita game backups. that would mean we could potentally make psvita hombrew.
Wow!!! THis is what i wanted!! Is this the PSP emu’s IDPS or the VITA’s IDPS?
It’s the Vita IDPS which was used in the PSP emu too, since the IDPS was involved with an algorithm to create as example license files is it clear that it shares the same IDPS. But pretty sad to see that it was so easy to grab it from ID Storage Key 0x0100
If your ps3 is console banned you can use the IDPS to unbanned your cfw ps3. Am I right?
Yes. I’m afraid i would get ban my VITA too if i attempt to play online on a cfw ps3
What about using the IDPS exploit to gain access to multiplayer game servers like killzone mercenary on vita? Do you think it would get my vita banned?
so what other psvita hacks i can do via psp ?
IDPs dump is compatible with version vita 3:55 for my already update
??????????
Any chance to port this Idps View to PSVITA 3.60 with HENKaku ?
