Hacking Sd2vita not working

[Patodox]

Well it's like it's dead. No lights at all. Normal cart works. It's the right way around.

Mine was exactly like that yesterday, until I re-config the tai/config file and taped the sd2vita. Just keep trying

What's your config look like? Surely I'd still see a flashing light even without correct config?

The vita seems to detect the adapter but it doesn't read the SD card. When the SD card is inserted the game card led is lighting up but nothing shows up

My problem was all in the config. Check it and check it again...

You might want to pad the back of the adapter on the bottom with a piece of electrical tape since it might be making a poor connection. One of my homemade boards is a bit hit and miss and this helps.

I used the picture to check my sd2vita and the last pin on the right wasn't connected. It's a very easy fix I put some more solder it took about 2 minutes. The psvita was stuck on the boot screen and the activity light was flashing continuously. I suppose different things will happen depending on the pin. One piece of advice Its best to check from the connector pad to the pin that makes connection with the sdcard my meter is very pointy so I could do that without problems.

If you mean the last pin on the microSD side then that is a data pin. If it is on the bottom then that is the voltage line.

So, I had been having a problem similar to everyone here. The way I got it working was packing the back of the SD2VITA with tape to make it thicker so that it is being pushed into the pins in the Vita, not just making contact. This worked STRAIGHT away. I also then used the MLTHaku method to mount it as ux0. No problems what so ever. BUT. You guys, I need some help! I am using a 128GB microsd card and when I used the blankimg zz and formatted the card, it is now only showing as 23GB. What is going on?! I have lost just over 100GB off my card and I don't know how to get access to that again, no matter how I format the card it ALWAYS shows up as 23GB.

Try Amoie Partition there is a free edition out there. Delete the partition then create a new one in FAT32

If it still says 23GB then you been duped with a dodge sd card. Send it back from where you bought it.

sorry to hijack your thread real quick does anyone know if a 256 GB card would work on an sd2vita adapter?

 

[Purple_Heart]

What brand of card is it and where did you purchase it from? I've seen fakes floating about on eBay, AliExpress, and the like...

Sorry guys, update time. It worked in the end. I was using a dodgy microsd card adaptor. Strange thing to cause that issue but I got it sorted.
