In this video I also showcase an updated version of Despertar del Cementerio v8 (DC8/DDC8), which allows you to install M33 CFW via the BaryonSweeper pandora battery.
The old 5.00 M33-6 custom firmware is running on the PSP 3000, something that had not been possible in the past; back in the day it only supported the PSP 1000 & 2000 (non-v3)!
The 5.00 M33 is just novelty, it is of course still recommended to use a 6.60 or 6.61 custom firmware (LME CFW or PRO CFW) alongside Infinity 2.

Vitamin enables you to dump PSV games into the VPK format, which can be installer via VitaShell to run legit PSV games as custom bubbles.
P.S. My test-run on the Crunchyroll App did not work, because I did not dump the update files as well.
You have to dump update files as well, if your game has any.Tutorial: Installing VHBL Homebrews on Firmware 3.60The Zett2016-08-03 | In this video I show you how to install PSP Homebrews for your VHBL Custom Bubble.
The device requires HENkaku & a VHBL Bubble. Check out my previous videos to learn how to install those things.
Do not update to firmware 3.60, if you are currently running a lower firmware version.
Firmware 3.60 can not run TN-V, ARK-2 or the NATIVE(!) Rejuvenate Vita hack, that only works on a lower firmware! But it can run the VHBL :)
If you have the chance, stay on a lower firmware and enjoy using the ePSP hacks TN-V, ARK, the PSOne Loader and the native Rejuvenate Vita hack :)

Greetings Davee & The ZPS Vita: Half Byte Loader for Firmware 3.57The Zett2016-01-20 | The VHBL CAN NOT run PS1/ISOs/CSOs, just homebrews, emulator, etc.!
Download (for FW 3.51/3.52): http://pastebin.com/JRk8jA1MTutorial: PS Vita Custom Bubbles for Firmware 3.5xThe Zett2015-10-01 | This is a rather long, but yet thorough, tutorial that shows you how to properly set up your own Custom Bubbles on your Playstation Vita.
Your PS Vita has to run firmware 3.52 or any older PS Vita firmware for this trick to work. A PS Vita that currently runs firmware 3.55 CANNOT follow this tutorial!
Do not update to firmware 3.55, if you are currently running a lower firmware version.
Firmware 3.55 can not run TN-V, ARK-2 or the NATIVE(!) Rejuvenate Vita hack, that only works on a lower firmware! But it can run the VHBL :)
If you have the chance, stay on a lower firmware and enjoy using the ePSP hacks TN-V, ARK, the PSOne Loader and the native Rejuvenate Vita hack :)
Stay tuned!PS Vita: What does the new Firmware 3.55 patch?!The Zett2015-09-30 | Sony has released a new Firmware 3.55 for their PS Vita console, which is pretty much bundled & required for the new PS4 firmware 3.00.
This new firmware 3.55 has patched a few things, but what exactly got patched, and what exactly is still working?
Let's find out!Upcoming: Custom Bubble release for Firmware 3.52!The Zett2015-09-15 | This new set of Custom Bubbles has been created by our good ol' Qwikrazor87 (twitter.com/qwikrazor87) :) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The new Custom Bubbles work on PS Vita firmware 3.50, 3.51 & 3.52 (so far), and can enable you to play Homebrews, PSP games, launch the VHBL or even an eCFW (ARK-2 or TN-V, the latter only on less than 3.51).
The new Custom Bubbles for 3.5x will be released very soon, don't worry, this means that you all can use Custom Bubbles on your PS Vita devices.
The Custom Bubbles (Qwikrazor's) are also working on lower firmwares, such as 3.18 or 3.36, which means that you SHOULD NOT update to 3.50+, unless you already did it or unless you really have to.
Everything that works on 3.50+ does also work on 3.18/3.36, so dont throw away your golden Firmwares for a worse firmware (3.52/3.51/3.50).
Nonetheless, if you are already lost on 3.50+, then you can at least use these new cool Custom Bubbles of Qwikrazor. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings, The Z & QwikrazorUpcoming: Kernel Exploit & 3.52 ARK-2 eCFW!The Zett2015-09-12 | Generous PS Vita developer Qwikrazor is going to release another kernel mode exploit for the PS Vita's PSP emulator very soon!
The kernel mode exploit is necessary for using an eCFW on the PS Vita. The ARK-2 eCFW can do everything you guys want:
It can play PSP games (PSN & Custom), it can play (soundless, unfortunally) PS1 games (PSN & Custom), it can use Plugins (PSP & PS1) and even use pretty much any kind of PSP Homebrew (simple & even complex ones!).
In the end it is worth to mention that you **SHOULD NOT** update to firmwares 3.50, 3.51 or 3.52, unless you **really** have to.
Why? Because FW 3.18/3.36 offer you MUCH MORE than the much more secure Firmware 3.5x do. It is NOT worth it to update from 3.18/3.36 to 3.5x, unless you **really** have to.
Nonetheless, this eCFW will work with all PS Vita firmwares up to version 3.52. Any newer firmware will most likely block this kernel mode exploit, and therefore render you unable to use the ARK-2 eCFW.
So be sure to not update higher than 3.52 (assuming Sony releases a new Firmware in the next weeks).
Be sure to give the big man behind the scene a tasty meal! - Developer Qwikrazor deserves so much for all the things he has done in the scene.
Dont be dicks, people, give that man a few of your dollars to show your appreciation of his work. He pretty much is taking care of this whole PS Vita (PSP Emulator stuff is what I am talking about) scene stuff by himself.
Once again via Qwikrazor's Method :)PS Vita: Emulator Bubbles for Firmware 3.52The Zett2015-09-05 | Running a GB/GBC/GBA Emulator on the PS Vita is, like on every shitty phone, indeed possible, thanks to Qwikrazor.
You run these emulators like any other game you would have downloaded from the PSN store, as if it would be a genuine Playstation game :)Release: ARK-2 eCFW via improved Pool Exploits for FW 3.50!The Zett2015-08-30 | Pretty simple: This enables you to use the Firmware 3.50 Pool Exploits with only one device, opposed to the old & weird 2-device method.
The eCFW only works on 3.50 & below! - 3.51/3.52 only has access to a highly limited VHBL!
Thanks ZPS Vita: Upcoming Exploit Games for the Firmware 3.52!The Zett2015-08-23 | World of Pool (6,99€ - EU, AU, NZ) Pool Hall Pro (NA - 3,99$, currently discounted!)
Those are the new exploit games for Firmware 3.52 :)
A japanese exploit game will be announced as well, at a later date, though.
The required exploit titles, IronFall & YouTube, are available FREE OF CHARGE, you read right, they are free!
The 3DS YouTube application should be available in any Nintendo eShop for the 3DS, regardless of it being the European, North American or Japanese store.
The IronFall title seems to be only available in Europe.
You do not need both titles, but it is recommended to get both, if you can. You need at least the YouTube application, though.
Thanks to Smealum and his friends for this awesome Nintendo 3DS hack! :)Release: Puzzle Scape VHBL for Firmware 3.52!The Zett2015-08-12 | Exploit game: "Puzzle Scape (Mini)" Cost of the game: 1,19€ Availability: Europe, Australia, New Zeeland (maybe more?)

Said PS Vitas were running a debug version of the most recent firmware 3.52. While we had to stop the recording, we still managed to show you some of its debug settings :)
As the icing on the cake, the device came with a Corpse Party - Blood Drive game installed (I NEED IT!), to be released in October 2015 :)How to: Limitless Account & Game sharing! (linking ∞ devices to 1 PSN Acc)The Zett2015-07-16 | Thanks to the ability of dumping & restoring the Nand of a modern Playstation device, it is possible to circumvent the internal device limit for each account.
Usually you are limited to 3 stationary (TV Consoles - PS3/PS4) devices and 3 handheld (portables ones - PSP, PSPgo, PS Vita, PS VitaTV) devices... Usually...
The trick I showcase will allow you to circumvent said 3 device limit and extend it from 3 to virtually infinite devices.
The only requirements are: - A working wifi connection (or LAN for PS3/PS4/PSvTV) - Being able to follow instructions - Being able to dump & restore the devices Nand/NOR flash (the hardest part!)
It does not matter if you use a software solution to dump the devices Nand/NOR flash, like I did with a PSP + CFW, or if you use a hardware modification, like the PS3 required back in the days.
Exactly these Hardware modifications are currently "a thing" for the Playstation 4, which enable you to read from & most likely even write to the PS4s NOR flash, enabling you to replicate this activation server "bypass" trick on a PS4.
Some companies are shamelessly advertising this cheap trick as "Playstation 4 Hack" or even worse, as "'Playstation 4 ``Jailbreak´´'".
This is neither a Hack, nor a crack, CFW, jailbreak or any irrelevant and not fitting term, it is simply a logical flaw in Sony's account/device activation process & an abuse.
The 3 easy steps are:
Activate device & download content until you are satisfied. Dump Nand & then deactivate the device, thus freeing up its slot in your Account. Restoring the Nand afterwards, re-enabling you to use the downloaded content, without actively wasting one of the three slots your PSN account has for each category: Stationary & handheld.
The PSP screen is reflecting as fuck, by the way. Praise proper glasses, that can also function as shades.Release: Puzzle Scape Exploit for Firmware 3.52 (Proof of Concept)The Zett2015-07-14 | Our good friend Xmax Katsu has published the following exploit for firmware 3.52: Puzzle Scape.
Keep in mind that this is still an early Proof of Concept, and can not yet use the VHBL.
It is also a Minis, which have had bad compatibility as of firmware 3.10 (and higher).
The game is only 1,19€, and therefore very cheap. Buy it at your own risk :)
If this is the case, then this is the exact right video for you!
In the video I am goint to show you how to add Custom Firmware files to your PSP & how to install these Custom Firmware files, without the need of any USB cables or card reader.
The only things necessary are a working Wifi connection, and a bit of space on the memory stick (or internal storage) of the Playstation Portable.
If you have watched the video, then you now know how to install a CFW without additional hardware. You are most likely looking for a few quick links, right? Well, here they are:
All "ME CFWs" can ONLY be installed on a PSP 1000 (the old fat one), or most of the old PSP 2000s (the slimmer one, but without the 'better' screen). Use the LME if you happen to have a "newer PSP model".
All "LME CFWs" can be installed on any PSP device, regardless of model. Despite the LME CFW working on all PSPs, you might want to be informed that a few system software restrictions still apply, depending on your PSP model (listed below).
The permanent patch works on all PSPs that can have the system software 6.20 installed. It does not work on system software 6.30 or newer (6.39, 6.60, 6.61).
The LightSpeed mod does work on all PSP models, but does only work on system software 6.39, 6.60 and 6.61. LightSpeed does not exist for version 6.20, due to the permanent patch being available for 6.20.
Keep in mind that newer revisions of the PSP 2000 (Two-thousand!) CANNOT and MUST NOT use the ME CFW, since those newer 2000s have the same restrictions as the PSP 3000s, PSP E1000s or PSPgo.
Version 6.20 works with all PSP 1000s, all PSP 2000s, most PSP 3000s and all PSPgo. It does NOT work with the PSP E1000 or a few of the newest PSP 3000s.
Version 6.39 works with all PSPs, except for the PSP E1000.
Version 6.60 & 6.61 work with all PSPs, regardless of model.
I hope those were enough informations for you guys, and I wish you a lot of fun with flashing (the proper term ;)) - this means installing a CFW - your Playstation Portable device(s).
Feel free to visit my website, www.zload.net, for additional (PC requiring, though) downloads for the PSP, PSPgo and Playstation Vita.

Keep in mind that this DOES NOT work on Firmwares 3.52 or newer (future firmwares). It only works on FWs 1.00 - 3.51, while something inbetween 3.00 & 3.51 is recommended!

Authors & Developers website: http://yifan.lu/p/rejuvenate/Tutorial: Installing Homebrews on FW 3.50 via OneMenu!The Zett2015-06-15 | As of Firmware 3.50 Sony has blocked the write access to the /PSP/GAME/ directory. This means you cannot add new content to the Game column of the PSP XMB (pretty much TN-V eCFW for PS Vita).
This would force you to convert homebrews into the ISO format, which doesnt work with all homebrews.
Using the OneMenu method will enable you to play and add new homebrews onto your PS Vita, without dual-booting ARK or VHBL.
While this method is not 100% perfect, it enables you to add new homebrews and play them right from TN-V ('s recovery menu).
