6. Multi-Menu Loader (Unofficial)
All PS Vita CEF users have heard of Mishka84′s Multi-Menu Loader, which includes the menus made for eCFW & many other options, but don’t confuse this with Acid_Snake’s multiBootMenu.
This one’s an unofficial v2 release, & in it the things users usually don’t like are made better. Such as, they don’t want a credits menu… removed! They don’t like seeing the app name instead of seeing eCFW
This version has much better graphics in all menus, + Netfront Browser.
