PSVshell is an overclocking plugin for PS Vita/PSTV. With PSVshell, you can set core frequencies in LiveArea and every other application with a very high degree of compatibility.

It also shows info about resources usage from the console as well as other little functions like a cool framerate display.

Features

Allows you to change CPU, GPU, BUS and XBAR clocks separately, in these steps:
- CPU - 41, 83, 111, 166, 222, 333, 444, 500 MHz.
- GPU (ES4) - 41, 55, 83, 111, 166, 222 MHz.
- BUS - 55, 83, 111, 166, 222 MHz.
- XBAR - 83, 111, 166 MHz.
Supports per-app profiles.
Shows per-core CPU usage in %, including peak single-thread load.
Runs in kernelland (=> visible in LiveArea).
Pretty GUI with some useless eye-candy metrics such as ram/vram usage, battery temp, etc...
Does not slow down games when menu is open.
Does not crash Adrenaline.
Clean code and patches.
3.60 and 3.65 FWs are supported.

Installation

Copy PSVshell.skprx to ur0:tai/. Add these lines to taiHEN config.txt at ur0:tai/config.txt

*KERNEL
ur0:tai/PSVshell.skprx

Reboot your device and relaunch HENkaku.

Controls

Select+Up/Down - Toggle between 3 GUI modes

When in Full Mode:

Up/Down - Move in the menu

Cross - Toggle frequency mode for currently selected "device" (Default (WHITE), Manual (BLUE))

Left/Right - Immediately change the frequency

Cross - Save/Delete frequency profiles when "save profile" is selected

L - Change "save profile" to "save global"

Cross - Save options to global (default) profile when "save global" is selected

Global profile will be used as default profile when game-specific profile doesn't exist.

Screenshots

'FPS only' mode

'HUD' mode

'FULL' mode

Media

Using both VitaGrafix & PSVshell (overclock) on your PS Vita (TheRandomname951)

Compatibility

Support FW 3.60 and 3.65.

Changelog

v1.2-beta

Redone procevent checks, system apps now have each their own profile (previously all were under 'main').
Further reduced flicker in games where the GUI still flickered in the 'Full' GUI mode (e.g. Dead Nation).
Slightly increased GUI drawing performance.
Added support for >544p framebuffers (like the Persona 4 Golden 720p/1080p patch).

v1.1

Added battery info section (life time, percentage + indicator) to the menu.
Replaced case temp. with battery percentage in 'HUD' mode (I feel like % is more useful).
Reordered GUI modes (it's now just one click to open up the menu).
Default freq. is now restored when changing mode from manual to default (hopefully less people will get confused from now on).
Added support for global (default) profile (hold LT and save).
Adjusted CPU usage sample-rate (now refreshes every 500ms, peak is calc.ed from 10 samples).
Fixed rare crash while 500 MHz profile was being applied.

v1.0

First Release.
