SKFU's V.I.T.A. Contest - inVent Ideas To Applications

Inspired by the very good weather we start this nice little contest.

Post your  ideas for new PS VITA related applications on the following Facebook site: CLICK. The best idea which is chosen by the most "like it"'s will be developed (if technically possible) and the inVentor of the idea wins Blazblue Continuum Shift Extended for the PS VITA.

My well informed sponsor GAMEFREAX joined the action and sponsors an official PS VITA bag for the winner !

If there are 2 very good ideas and iQD and me like both a lot, we can play our joker and the second best idea will be developed aswell. Surely the inventor of this idea won't go home with empty hands and wins
a copy of Little Deviants :)

The rules are simple:

• no updates/extensions for old apps
• no clones of existing apps
• no piracy

The contest timerange is 1 week, until the 1st April.

We're curious about your ideas!

The Silent VITA PKG Install Block

When I researched game updates a while ago, it was pretty basic to redirect the URL of the package to any .pkg-file which I wanted to install. Sadly now it is not anymore.

The old patch progress worked as I described here:
http://streetskaterfu.blogspot.de/2012/01/ps-vita-game-updates.html

The new patch progress is nearly the same, but has a major security difference. The pkg file which is preloaded  to check for an update now contains checks of the expected update package file (if there is one available).

This means it is not possible anymore to redirect a package file to install another.

The only chance is, that someone saved one of the old package files, so we could override this aswell and use the old patch progress again. Due my HDD crash I lost my copy, so if anyone saved an older preloaded patch pkg let me know :)

The actual Ridge Racer preload patch pkg is stored here btw:

PSN INFINITY v2 - Open Beta

Good evening, everyone!

Proudly I present you my newest application "PSN Infinity v2".



Since in most news posts my co-coder genius iQD is forgotten, I have to mention him for his great help on this application here once again.

This version is released as public beta. Completing the app and including all functions I want it to have will take several weeks but the main function aka browsing the PSN stores is already working.

Download PSN INFINITY v2 (beta): CLICK

Dependencies are OpenSSL + VC Redists: DOWNLOAD

This is the first time I force a donation alert in an app, but necessary as this program is a very huge and time consuming project.

So if you like this beta, please donate a small amount to give me some more time to work on this nice project :)

I will give you a sneak preview about the functions I focus to add soon:

• 100% PSN PC client
• linux and MAC version
• finish the search function
• download PKG for guest account 
• add comic & video stores support
• activate/deactivate your consoles remotly
• complete account management on PC (like on PS3)
• change your PSN Online ID (like in japanese region accounts)
• bring back PC to PS3 messaging (if we'll ever get xi-passphrase back)
• etc etc etc...

If you reach error 99, please install the VC redistributables and OpenSSL.
If you find any bugs or have suggestions don't hesitate to e-mail me: (skfuinfo@gmail.com).

This application is made for research and investigation.
There is no intention to use it for piracy!

Kind regards,

- SKFU

Firmware 1.52 Status

Ok guys we tested the possibilities on firmware 1.52 for a few days now. What I can confirm is the following:

• Tech4's exploit still works
• Wololo's HBL still works
• everything I research atm didn't change from 1.50 to 1.52

If that is fine for you, there's no reason not to update.

Anyways, I have to mention that this can change without a firmware upgrade!

If you are online with your PS VITA, it can download and install silent updates for any application which runs in usermode and has nothing to do with system critical modules.

The good is, those updates are removed once the system is restored to the current firmware, so it would not be a major problem to remove a fix.

PS VITA Game Updates

I just noticed the first update of the PS VITA game "Ridge Racer" is online and did some research on the new update system.

It is a bit upgraded but basicly the same as on PS3. Once a game tab is opened, the VITA downloads a PKG for this game tab. This includes update information, such as if an update if available. If thats the case, the game tab will show you a yellow arrow on the top of the screen which gives you information about the update available. This information is stored in XML's which are gathered via URL's like this example one:

http://gs.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/ppkg/np/PCSG00001/PCSG00001_T1/0101/c653f481544f8b19/changeinfo.xml

Since there is a hash inside the link, it is not possible to lookup any game by it's ID, yet.

The URL to the PKG update file may be stored in the first PKG mentioned above, as it's not in this "changeinfo"-XML.

Example update PKG:

http://gs.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/ppkg/np/PCSG00001/PCSG00001_T1/c653f481544f8b19/JP0700-PCSG00001_00-RIDGERACERPSVITA-A0101-V0100-fd9baf01343b2db6df0d434b17ef822a9699c6da-PE.pkg
