ARK and TN-V don't work on 3.57 and up, so no...

Again, ePSP kernel exploits were patched on 3.57 and up, so no PSP backups yet.
However, you can search the internet for Vita backups in dumped VPK format and install via VitaShell.

Damn, my vita crashed and when vita restarted, it went to safe mode and chose rebuild database, after that, all of my saves dissapeared.. I was dumping carts with vitamin 1.1, and vita crashed due to sumthing..


Can anyone help me?

Just a question does a vita with 1.80 version compatible with henkaku?

Nope. You must manually update to 3.60 if you want to access HENkaku/Native Vita homebrew/backups. It is the only firmware HENkaku will support for the time being.
Alternatively, you can update to a firmware between 3.00-3.52 for easy-access to PSP hacks and exploits, including running PSP homebrew and backups in an eCFW such as TN-V or ARK.

Either way, you're going to need to manually update your Vita like I mentioned:

Fixed..

I found my old saves on ux0:/user/00/savedata_org

Thats very weird..

Wanna thanks for team molecule and the flow for this..


Still, cannot dump any of my carts with vitamin 1.1..

 

[Tortitamal]

Can I change the psn account without updating the vita? (the vita is on 3.60)

Also, Is it safe to connect the vita to wifi? or will it download the update and try to install it by itself?

 

[jmonee84]

I'm confused. Can I manually update my pre 3.6x Vita to 3.60? If so, can I and run PSP and Vita homebrew and isos from 3.60?

Edit: Found the answer in another thread.

 

[Shiaoran]

Does any of these methods allow you to play other region games in a different region account and still connect to PSN?
No hacks, backups, ISOs, I just want to play my asian stuff on my US account.

edit : nvm! and thanks for making this thread.

i believe it has everything vita hax related things in it yes?

You should add another part to the app.db editing process for those that have a PSTV/VitaTV

To get rid of that cruddy Featured Apps tab, just remove all references to the following App ID in the following databases:

APPID: NPXS10102

Databases:

tbl_appinfo
tbl_livearea
tbl_livearea_file (find under dir)
tbl_livearea_frame

Some tables won't let you delete their contents due to SQLite triggers. Ignore them and continue deleting anything you can.

Reboot the PSTV.

Upon reboot, the PSTV will error. Press "OK" and the Featured Apps tab is now gone.
If you rebuild the database, it will come back, but otherwise it's gone for good.

Credits to SMOKE587 for originally discovering the technique.

If someone made an app for this, that would be cool.

I gave this a try, but it didn't quite work... I was able to delete every reference to NPXS10102 in the first two databases, but the SQLite editor wouldn't let me delete any of the records that referenced NPXS10102 in the latter two (livearea_file and livearea_frame). I know you said to ignore them and delete anything I can, but it just wouldn't let me delete anything at all, and I don't get why.
Of course, when I tried to import the edited app.db and reboot, it simply kicked me over to safe mode where I had to rebuild the database.

Never mind, I'm an idiot. I just found this tool, and it worked first try.

3.18 is the firmware to goto for psp and ps1, don't go higher then that unless you want 3.60 for vita dumps,

 

[gatosardina]

Any chance a downgrader is being worked on? Stuck on 3.61 here

Not a chance. Go sell your vita and buy another on a lower firmware.

Question:
What would be the best thing to do with a 1.0 Vita NIB to have best compatibility with PSP & PSX Games in the most comfortable way?

Trade me it for a 3.18 pre-setup system.

Upgrade to firmware 3.18 and no higher, buy a PSP and PSX exploit game and take it from there, you will need a PS3 for a few mins though.
