News: SKFU FW 1.52 Status Confirmed

Developer SKFU has taken the leap and updated his PS Vita to the latest firmware 1.52. Many are anticipating a firmware update that will block the recent exploits/findings achieved by Teck4, Wololo & SKFU. SKFU has confirmed that it is safe to update your PS Vita to 1.52 since all exploits are still functioning.

To Quote:

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.

PSP Vita !
