taiHEN beta 8 released; recommended by Yifan over stable
taiHENkaku has gone a long way since the initial release and finally, it’s relatively stable while still in beta stage. Yifan Lu, the most prominent member of team xyz, has said in the latest release notes that he recommends using it as your daily driver. taiHEN was released on Nov 1, 2016; about 1.5 months from today and 8 betas have been released as of today.
What’s taiHEN?
taiHEN is the successor of HENkaku R6 and it brings along system-wide plugins, compressed binaries and above all, it’s a framework that can be ported to a newer firmware if someone finds an exploit. taiHEN of course has much less bugs than HENkaku R6 as it’s been in development for months as R6 was released last September. The most prominent benefit of taiHEN is being able to run Adrenaline, the ePSP exploit for 3.60, and compressed binaries which are becoming the norm.
What’s changed?
Changelog isn’t too major but it has some bug fixes:
- molecularShell updated to display if you are currently in “unsafe” mode or not. Shows all devices in unsafe mode again.
- Some taiHEN API updates for developers
- Compatibility for a future VitaShell update
Yifan Lu has also said that he regularly updates taiHEN’s code and fixes bugs as soon as possible but of course there isn’t a release for little bug fix. Yifan has also said that this probably the release before last as taiHEN is pretty mature (settings app can’t hold 2 digits as the beta number anyway). If you wish to read more about the newest release, make sure to check out the release notes linked below. This release works just fine with Offline Installer versions pointed to get files from beta.henkaku.xyz

Offline Installer for beta releases (by afurlani): https://github.com/afurlani/offline-installer/releases/tag/1.0
Offline Installer provided so that nobody gets one from an unsafe source since some VPKs contain malware.
Awsome
Updating Now
It’s team molecule not team xyz.
Thanks for the correction! 🙂
It’s still written “team xyz” ^^
Still needs to be corrected.
“Compatibility for a future VitaShell update” and the flow twetting about usb transfer, mmh interesting.
THANK YOU (^_^)/
my brain is a bit tired I forgot the way to properly intall the offline installer…
I istalled the VPK (again) but when I open the mail i got some wrong message in RED
henkaku failed to install taiHen: error code 0xffffffffffffffffffffffff
Can someone help me??
Thanks in Advance
me too -.-
As I wrote I’m so tired i didn’t even saw the offline installer bubble
PROBLEM SOLVED
THANKS AGAIN (^_^)/
Why does it still say R7 when you update? even with the offline installer
Does someone knows if the “no memory card found” error still happen sometimes in games after waking from sleep mode ?
I started using HENkaku for the amphetamin plugin but after loosing some progress because the game (God Eater 2) could see the memory card anymore twice (tried to eject and reinsert it but to no avail) I eventually stopped using it.
Is it safe now ?
There is a fix for this problem for ages :
– Backup and delete “ux0:\user\00\savedata_backup\list.dat” file.
– Create a folder named “list.dat” (“ux0:\user\00\savedata_backup\list.dat\”).
And voilà!
Thanks, I’ll give it a try if the problem should happen again.
Personally it stopped for me since using Taihen. I now leave my vita with a game in sleep for days.
Thanks for the feedback. I’ll try it this week, hoping it won’t happen again to me too
“I’m a girl that’s liked(…)”
Oh geez, why do this.
What does this even mean?
I think it’s one of those “ZOMG a girl on t3h interwebs likes the same things I do!!!” “Every male gamers phantasy” type deals. He can’t handle himself around girls. It’s one of those virgin things.
Yeah, most likely :/
Because she can? >.>
Well we all know she’s a girl now…..the next question I would have is………are you hot?
But that’s just me a old (umm experienced) scene dude with an over active imagination!
That’s because of dudes like you that having a gender has become problematic on internet nowadays

“Old scene dude”
it still says r7 when using beta.henkaku.xyz though the build is recent
What’s the chances that a PSN spoofer will come along any time soon? My Vita is collecting dust atm 🙁
Still not stable, got black screen when run Gohanmem but it okay on catriege based game, mai dum game got black screen
where is the vitashell that is updated to match taihen?
also, what is the unsafe mode for?
It allows you to convert it in to a paper weight.
When is psn spoofing coming back???
Mathieulh is a clever guy but never contributed, he teased everyone (PS3 cfw days)
Long live Graf Chokolo!!!!
