It is already the 2nd December 2013 and we are still patiently waiting for the official release of the new TN-V4 eCFW, which will bring us a kernel mode to the firmwares above 2.02 (up to 3.00+) and will turn all usermode exploits, that we’ve released this year, into kernel mode. But now let’s take a look at the changelog of TN-V4:



Official TN-V4 changelog:

Added high memory support for

FW 2.1x ONLY.

(Update to Firmware 2.10/2.11/2.12 and get one of the 2.12+ exploit games!)

Added an option in the recovery menu to apply the PS Vitas registry (Registry hacks ->). (These registries will be applied: PSN, language, button assign, password lock, date, adhoc, wifi)

Added automatic recovery menu boot at first use. (This prevents you to boot into an error message)

Added ‘Fix exploit savedata’ option. (With this enabled, you can play the exploit game. The first 2 letters of the savedata folder will be replaced with ‘TN’)

Added possibility to hide the exploit game in XMB.

Added ISO category support for GCLite.

Added possibility to change HOME and NOTE combo buttons (Advanced -> Advanced configuration ->). (If no buttons are choosen, you can HOLD the Livearea button (the blue PlayStation button) to simulate the HOME button)

Added patch to enable 6.60 kernel modules decryption.

Fixed CPU underclock.

Fixed infinite bluescreen error.

Fixed lots of Sony’s msfs driver bugs.

Fixed all bugs made in TN-V3.

Fixed original pscode region determination.

Fixed bug that did not allow you to go to the Livearea screen.

Fixed bug where HOME button was simulated, when you opened the Vita OSK.

Dummied Temperature and Volt power functions to avoid long negative strings.

Improved ISO cache core.

Improved ‘Install Addon’ feature. This option is now removed from recovery menu and is always enabled.

Removed semaphore wait in flash0 emulation. This enhances the reading speed of flash0 files (most noticable in Theme Settings).

Made some cosmetic changes in VSH Menu and recovery menu and added possibility to change the color of these menus.

Wow.

This sounds like a lot of awesome and great new features and functions. With the released TN-V4 changelog, we might can expect TN-V4 to hit soon~ish.

Remember, TN himself gave us a time frame which was ‘November to January’, so it is possible that TN-V4 can hit in the next few weeks.

And now, since people like pictures, some pictures of the new functions.

There are a few colours to choose from:

Red, Blue, Green, Purple, Cyan and Yellow.

Same for the recovery menu. The following colours can be chosen:

Red, Blue, Green, Cyan, Purple and Yellow.

You can use 2 buttons to simluate the Home and the Note button. You can choose from the following buttons:

Up, Down, Left, Right, Start, Select, Cross, Circle, Square, Triangle, L and R.

You can not choose the volume buttons or the touch screen.

This will apply the PS Vitas registry to the PSPemulator. This includes the language, the PSN account, the Nickname (PSN Name) and other settings.

We can’t say this enough, be sure to prepare your PSN Wallet and keep an eye at our forums. TN-V4 might be available soon.
