[TUTO] PS Vita : HENlo sur 3.74, puis Ensō en 3.65 avec VitaDeploy

All PS Vita and PS TV consoles can be hacked, regardless of firmware. The current method goes through the console's browser with HENlo (firmware 3.65, 3.68 and 3.74), then installs a permanent hack, Ensō, with VitaDeploy.


Steps
  1. Second-hand console? First do the guide's "Restoring System" page.
  2. If the console is between 1.03 and 3.73, update it to 3.74 over Wi-Fi.
  3. Open the browser at the address http://jailbreak.psp2.dev, then Unlock my Vita and Unlock.
  4. In henlo-bootstrap: Install henkaku, Install VitaDeploy, then Exit. On a Vita 1000 without an official memory card, first create the internal memory as instructed.
  5. In Settings > HENkaku Settings, check Enable Unsafe Homebrew.
  6. Open VitaDeploy: Install a different OS > Quick 3.65 Install. The console switches to 3.65 with Ensō. Stay connected to the Internet and do not put the console to sleep.
  7. On reboot, answer No if the console offers to transfer data from internal memory: otherwise the memory card is erased.
  8. Finish with the "Finalizing setup" page: YAMT or StorageMgr for an SD2Vita, Adrenaline for PSP games, blocking updates.

⚠ Warning: Ensō modifies the console permanently: a power interruption during installation can render it unusable. Charge the battery, keep the cable plugged in.
