Hackinformer Your device needs to transform, we are here to inform
Today, PSV/PS4 dev SKFU released his method of installing packages on the PS Vita. Basically you can download and install demos and other DRM free stuff from other regions like Netflix, Crunchy Roll, E Reader, ect. on your Vita simply by using an email link to launch the pkg installer.
Instructions from SKFU’s blog:
” PS VITA Method:
On PlayStation VITA there are many ways to achieve our goal, so it’s not important right now if one is public. I will show you the most simple one. Probably you have noticed the leak of information regarding a hidden PKG installer a few months ago – this was achieved by using this technique.
Simply as it is, the only thing you have to do is setup the E-Mail client application on your PlayStation VITA and write yourself an HTML E-Mail with the following content to receive the E-Mail on your PSV.
OPEN PKG INSTALLER
Open your E-Mail app and click the link and the PKG installer will start. You may want to replace the titleid parameter with any of your choice. I have a small list of tested TitleID’s for PSV right here, feel free to add or modify information.”
Very cool stuff. He also talks about the TitleID’s and their importance in Vita/PS4 hacking. And how you can join in on the hunt. This is basically a must read for anyone in the scene.
Thanks SKFU and keep up the good work!
For simplicity here’s a small webform which will unlock the PKG Installer for your PS VITA: http://www.zload.net/pkg/ kindly hosted by The Zett. Just enter the E-Mail adress you use on your PSV and the script will send you the unlock E-Mail.
*******For those having trouble inserting html into an email just copy and paste this link OPEN PKG INSTALLER *********

Waiting for tutorial metod ps4
Hello, I’m trying to get my Spyro download to work the vita. Downloaded the pkg file from psn on my pc (I own it). The issue I’m running into is that each time I try to run the copied OPEN PKG INSTALLER” link, it gives the message: “This operation is currently unavailable.” Does it no longer work? Or am I doing something wrong?
it does not work on new fw like 3.30
He said there are many ways of acheveing our goal.
and the one he said doesnt work on FW 3.30+ Even With An App Like Party
but he said there are many ways. like what whats another way?
could useing another way mean that opening the pkg isntaller on 3.30 is possible? or any other hidden apps that are found caz it looks to me that
they just blocked opening titleids from email..
What’s your firmware if its 336 that’s no good 318 only..
It’s not working I need help!
the package installer only works on 318..
Plzz help me im click on pkg installer on ps vita email and he says this operation is temporarily unavailable
What Fw are you on?
doesnt wor i assume on 3.36, i have a vita on 3.18 and another on 3.50, i saw zett use 3.50 n this pkg so was it just patched for 3.36
No as there’s a different way of opening it up on new firmware, but in his video do you actually see him use it. Because you can still open it but nothing works, so they patch the old trick. The package installer is quite useless as almost every demo and game have DRM, so you won’t be able to install them or use it.
