I have a problem. I bought myself SD2Vita for my CFW 3.68 FAt Vita, PCH-1004, i did everything as it said in tutorial and such but suddenly, i can't launch Henkaku now. Everytime i try to instal it, it goes as normaly but when i exit it, it crashes.
Any ideas what is a problem and how to solve this?

Web browser Henkaku doesn't work on 3.68.
no, i meant, through the h-encore app.
i always had to instal it through that app and then i was able to launch adrenaline, vitashell and stuff. now i can't do it beacue whenever i instal and and exit, it crashes. and it happened right after i plugged in SD2VITA

You should really just downgrade to a lower firmware such as 3.60 or 3.65 to setup enso, so you don't have to worry about restarting the vita, since the gamesd.skprx is a kernel level plugin you need to restart to apply it, with enso you don't have to worry about it. You might have a problem with your SD2Vita, newer version are mass produced, they kinda suck compare to earlier release.

i plan it once i get enough free time, for now i would like to find out how can i at least make it all the way it was before or fix it somehow. i can go by without SD2VITA for now if it will be neccesary

Your config is wrong... See this wayyyy too often.

Delete ux0:tai folder from vita memory and from backup.

Put all plugins in ur0:tai...

i tried to replace gamesd.skprx with a newer one, put it into my sd card and launched vita. it said updating database and when it turned on... everything was gone. games, homeberew apps, everything.
still, everything is still on SD card, it's just like vita doesn't see it at all

Missing plugin probably, such as nonpdrm.skprx , that is also kernel plugin, downgrade first before even bothering to play with games.

downloaded, copied it but it still doesn't show anything that previously was installed.

it looks like i will need to downgrade it first now, right?

Much easier to use enso and make it permanent CFW, instead of running h-encore every cold boot, and reboot everytime to apply a kernel level plugin.

yeah but knowing me, i will do it again since who knows


Last sd2vita I had to copy over ux0 twice as not everything copied over the 1st time and all my issues went away

Try:

After loading hencore wait 2 seconds or so then hold R bumper and exit without loading henkaku.

Also, make sure your sd card isn't dirty - Plug into computer and if it asks to scan you have to clean it

in cmd promp chkdsk /f then your drive letter - Example chkdsk /f g:

Lastly make sure your using a good genuine micro sd card

ok well you need to use Final Hencore to hack 3.68 firmware, henkaku won't work until you downgrade to 3.60


https://vita.hacks.guide/installing-h-encore

EDIT just read you meant Hencore in your original post, anyhow it might still be a good idea to follow the guide to get hencore working on your vita again, then downgrade to 3.60.
