Switching SD2VITAs

[Kibbutz]

Hi everyone, another day another question for you lol
I currently have a slim psvita to play psvita games and a pstv to play psp games. I usually have the tv unoccupied so i can play freely on pstv whenever i want, but sometimes i can't for varius reasons so i was wandering if i can put the sd2vita with psp game in the psvita and playing from there. Both sd2vitas are configured as ux0 and the both have the same homebrew on them, so i think it possible to swap them, but maybe i'm wrong so please let me know

To change systems either delete the id.dat on root of the microSD or choose "unlink memory card" in henkaku settings, which essentially does the same thing.

I have to do this if i have the same account on both devices?

I'm not sure if that matters. The id.dat has the device id, system software version, which will include spoof, so it must always be the same or higher with the system ( never lower or it will force you to update). It does contain your account id as well, so I dunno.

I will probably try it out when i come home from vacations, the only thing i know is that i have the same account and the same fw on both console (3.65 enso)

Most likely it will ask you to format the card if it doesn't work, so just select cancel.

In the worst case scenario i can format the microsd on the psvita and then copy again the games, i have already backed up the save files so it's not a big problem for me. Thanks for the support.

I would just delete the id.dat. another will be created when you restart.

Well, that's just definitively easier and quicker than copy over 700gb of psp games lol

You can open it with a txt editor if you're curious what's in it.

One last question before i forgot, once both sa2vitas are linked to the same system, i can swap from the vita games sd2vita to the psp games sd2vita and vice versa freely (of course with the console tuned off)? Or i have to rebuild database every time? I have uncheched the option to auto update live area screen at start up.
