PS VITA / PS TV WARNING to users' of Total Noob's Actions

News like this is never a great thing for me to report, but sadly I think the user-base should be aware of the actions of Total Noob, the developer recently released a great release in TN-X that we reported on last week. However there is some issues that i feel are really over the line for any developer to do. The developer added malicious code to the release that targeted some user's .(Such as The Zett) and perhaps more [break]ss[/break] . This code gives a permanent Red screen and would delete files on your memory card purposely for these targeted people.

No matter which way you look at these actions, it was a shady and just classless move and you have to ask yourself if someone is willing to do this when they are upset at some. Where does the dev draw the line? or is that line ever drawn? That is the problem with doing such CHILDISH moves such as this. It's a sad situation to say the least and i know many will lose trust in this dev and rightfully so, I will leave you with some additional information from over at wololo.net where this is a highly debated topic. Also checkout out what Total Noob had to say over these matter..

Note that Qwikrazor released a modded version of TN-X that removes this JUNK CODE from the release.

If you are an ordinary person that just enjoys using the released content (TN-V eCFW, TN-X eCFW, ARK-2 eCFW, VHBL, and so on), then you will never notice anything being wrong with the official TN-X eCFW files.


But if you are one of a selected few, then you will notice that your PS Vita will act weird upon using the official TN-X eCFW files.


As of now it begins with the device presenting you a simple, but permanent, red screen (instead of a short green screen followed by the TN-X menu), even though you have correctly transfered and set up all the required files.


But it won't stop there. If you are a really special person, then you might notice that your PS Vita's memory stick gains more and more free space, every time you are trying to use the TN-X eCFW.


What is the only way of a memory stick gaining more free space? Correct, the removal of files that take up said space.


What happens is pretty simple: The not working TN-X eCFW, due to you being on Total_Noob's personal '$hit-list', is simply deleting files from your memory stick. Neat, isn't it?

It is not known what other disgusting 'hidden features' Total_Noob has hidden in his most recent releases, but if you are one of the very few people on his 'personal list', then expect weird stuff to happen to your device (and its data).

The Response from Developer Total Noob Over these matters:
​

My files has got two checks
The first check will not harm, only give a red screen
The second check happens if the first check is somehow disabled
So it formats the ms
So it was The Zett's responsibility to use a modified one or not
The untouched one does not format anything, only give a red screen
Even Dark_AleX did this
Back then when you modified the files it bricked your device
