Henkaku updated, fixes some savegame issues
HENkaku has been updated to release 5 today, and should fix some of the savegame issues that people have encountered. Yifanlu emphasizes that this will only solve issues related to the PSN Spoofer, not other ones, but some people claim this could fix issues that have been seen for people using popular Vita game dumping tool Vitamin.
This new update changes how HENkaku does PSN spoofing, and as a side effect of this change, the safeguards to remove update blockers are now gone, so unless I’m misreading this part, be careful to not end up with an update to 3.61.
Additionally, HENkaku has now been updated to Vitashell 0.91, which has built-in network updates. This means the HEnkaku team will not update their Vitashell dependency anymore, Vitashell will take care of that part itself.
The official changelog for release 5:
This update improves the quality of the system performance. (wait, is that a reference to Sony stability updates?)
- Changed how PSN spoofing is done. This should fix problems a minority of users experience regarding game saves.
- Removed update blocking features as a side effect of above.
- Update to VitaShell 0.91. This is the last VitaShell update bundled into HENkaku. Please use VitaShell’s built in network update feature to update VitaShell as a standalone component.

Good
Does this mean that with this update you can no longer go to ps store with your 3.60 Vita?
No, you can still go to the PS Story, but things had to be removed from the spoofer in regards to some people having save game issues. So in turn, going to the PSN is now somewhat more risky then before. They’ve removed the update blocker too, so going online could result in people unknowingly updating to 3.61……just to be sure, turn off auto-download updates and know what you’re doing. The higher chance of getting PSN bans is now possible.
I see, so unless im having issues with saves, just stay to the previous ver as long as possible?
Thanks for the reply
i mean, even if you just plat tboi, *** saves and get mgba.
Wait, what are people saying about this update in terms of Vitamin?? Fixing what?
Fixing nothing about Vitamin… Wololo is mistaken.
People claims Vitamin has a bug with save, that’s why a lot of people stops dumping game, and were waiting for a fix (Vitamin 2.0 for example)…
TheFlow demonstrate that the bug was relative to Henkaku, not Vitamin…
So, this new HENkaky release should not fix anything for Vitamin because the save bug was not a result of Vitamin.
That makes the henkaku version in the offline installer is so outdated
You are mistaken, the Offline Installer installs the latest version of Henkaku currently available.
You should run the installer (the one with crossed out wifi bubble) with internet so you can update the offline henkaku.
I don’t think I’ll be updating if the risk of getting banned is higher.
Don’t worry about that…
When you start your PSVita, your firmware is 3.60 and a script is called by Sony to check the new version. It’s silent and it’s launch even if you don’t check the auto-update firmware.
Then, when you start HENkaky, your firmware is spoof to 3.61, and you can connect to the PSN.
It’s so easy to Sony to store the last version of your firmware, and ban console where firmware seems to be downgraded. (3.60 at start, 3.61 when use PSN, 3.60 at reboot).
If you don’t want to get ban, just never play with piracy games… because if you have trophy about digital games you never bought, it’s easy for Sony to know your playing with a game which was not purchased on our store 😉
They can tell you don’t have the physical cartridge in your psvita? I can understand if it’s digital download only, but some of the uploaded games have cartridge versions.
I think now is the time, if you’re on Henkaku, to abandon your real psn id and use a fake. Don’t want to risk losing ps4 digital purchases.
thanks Yifanlu. kisses and kisses

is there a way to go back to system update 3’60 went to 361 not meaning too
no, not possible. sell your vita and buy another one that hasn’t updated yet.
Doesn’t Vitashell built-in network update expose me to Sony? Or in henkaku mode Sony IPs are blocked?
Henkaku PSN access has been blocked today. So for those that missed it, too bad.
Thank god I already finished installing VHBL. But I got a PSN notification this morning though.
What you talking about you filthy modasucka? I just tested both versions (R4 & R5) 10 minutes ago and they’ve both allowed me to log into to PSN.
How do I revert to previously HENkaku version? I can’t get to PSN anymore.
If you didn’t update the offline Installer, then you should be ok. R4 is the version that was made on August 30th.
waooo mucho error (C2-12828-1) Con el nuevo update henkaku-5
no me deja activar el henkaku uffff
uff despues de 30 minutos por fin activo el henkaku .. recomiendo no actualizas (NO apagar) PS vita en lo que el problema sea resuelto
English dude, english. We can’t understand a word you saying.
Does anyone know exactly what it means when it says it removed safeguards for the updater? Is it saying if you manually click update or something, it will install whereas before it didn’t?
waiting for psp and ps1 emulator bubble 🙁
is there who can explain to me about these updates? if I can no longer access the PSN Store? if there is no other way in order to still be able to connect to the PSN Store. if indeed there can you please explain how where do I? I recently installed Henkaku in FW 3.60 and I also read the tutorial about vita updetes block. but it seems I failed because there updeted what is this?
Strange. I visit henkaku.xyz and press “Install” as usual, and henkaku installed successfully. But the molecularShell shows that it is based on vitashell 0.6. And only ux0:data have the write permission, thus I can’t even install a vpk, it says write ux:ptem xxx xxx xx error. I’m in china.
Why my comments disapper? It is really strange that I install henkaku 5, but the updated molecularShell is base on vitashell 0.6, thus I can’t install any vpk, even can’t update the molecularShell manually because only ux0:data have the write permission. Even if I format my vita and it’s memory card, same thing appears. Isn’t is a henkaku.xyz’s bug?
Gud day need help on my psvita i updated or to 3.60 when i install henkaku and load it to vita it seems that the buttons are not working like the up left right down up and x and o buttons as well i try to reformat the vita and also did the rebuild but nothing happens still i cannot press the buttons when im inside the henkaku..please help thank you very much
