[Question] TN-V and FW 2.23

Post by sanderdsz » Tue Sep 01, 2015 12:54 am

[font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Hi guys.[/font]

[font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]I got a brand new OLED Vita with the FW 2.23.[/font]
[font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]I already got the Pool Hall Pro in the PSN US and I have a PS3 with everything set up to transfer it.[/font]

[font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Do I have to update my Vita FW to 3.01 or can I keep it in the 2.23 and exploit it?[/font]

[font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]And one last thing, I will be able to play Vita games that I transfer it from my PS3 like Im doing today with my Vita in 3.51? Is there some games that will not be able to run in the 2.23?[/font]

Very good thats all you need[font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]![/font][/font] And its your choice to manually update your vita. IF you decide to update [font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]I would recommend 3.18 as its the best Firmware [/font](additionally Pool Hall Pro [font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]is exploited and work[font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]s[/font] up to [font='Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]3.52 as of now)[/font][/font]

Probably yes because all games need a required Firmware to run. So older games will work but newer ones probably not. Check here http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?t=14537

Hope that helped :)

Thanks so much for the support!
I was told that the FW is 2.23, well I dont have it now because it's in the transport.

So, now I have to manually update to 3.18? I have only found the OFW 3.01, and though it was the best OFW to exploit it... Can you explain why the 3.18 its better?

About the games that run in a certain FW, thanks for that link, very helpful indeed.

Well basically 3.01 can run all available hacks like 3.18 can. If you check the http://hackinformer.com/PlayStationGuide/index.html and compare the available hacks for both Firmwares you'll see its the same thing. The only reason why I would consider 3.18 the better choice is because it's newer and got more features. (And of course considering you're wish to play vita games that require higher Firmwares)

So, I ill manually update my Vita to OFW 3.18, can you explain to me if I can use Pool Hall Pro to exploit it in the 3.18?
Im kinda scary but it seems so easy to do...
And I also was looking for the OFW 3.18 files to download but I could not find anywere, do you have some link to share with the files to download?

And for the last, if I can use Pool Hall Pro to exploit it in the 3.18, can I use any tutorial? Or I have to use a especific save data to that FW?

Well, I bought Pool Hall Pro for nothing...
Moving on, there's a Patapon 2 in the Brazilian playstore, which is my country and its pretty cheap, around $4 bucks.
Can I still use this game for TN-V? Or it could be already "patched" or something like this...?

I don't think so as Patapon 2 is a US exploit.. So don't waste your money just yet.

So you think that Patapon 2 in the Brazilian store could not work as the US version?
And before I spend any buck, try the Pool Hall Pro save files to 3.50? If it works in the 3.18? Am I correct?
Then, if nothing works, what you guys recommend? Buy a exploit game from the 3.18 list? Or try the luck with that Patapon?
