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.

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.
