A software that transforms your PS Vita into a two-in-one device
If you wish to donate me some money, I'd really appreciate. But just don't write thanks for PSP piracy xD Donation link
Adrenaline is a software that modifies the official PSP Emulator using taiHEN CFW framework to make it run a PSP 6.61 custom firmware. Thanks to the power of taiHEN, Adrenaline can inject custom code into the IPL which allows unsigned code to run at boottime.
- Download Adrenaline.vpk and install it using VitaShell.
- Launch Adrenaline and press X to download the 6.61 firmware. After finishing it will automatically terminate.
- Relaunch Adrenaline, this time it will go into pspemu mode. Follow the instructions on screen.
Note #1: Adrenaline has been redesigned in 6.61 Adrenaline-6, so you'd need to launch Adrenaline twice everytime you reboot your device. To get rid of that, simply write this line to *KERNEL
*KERNEL
ux0:app/PSPEMUCFW/sce_module/adrenaline_kernel.skprx
Note #2: If you have been using a previous Adrenaline, please uninstall it before using 6.61 Adrenaline-6 or higher. Just remove the directory ux0:adrenaline to avoid interference.
For 6.61 Adrenaline-4 or higher, you can use the 'System Update' in the XMB to update Adrenaline to the latest version.
