How to Prevent Bubble Positions Reset?

xtreme1 · Jun 11, 2022

I just rebooted my vita without the sd2vita adapter. Since the games from my uma0 sd2vita weren't present it reupdated the LiveArea on restart. I rebooted with the sd2vita & since uma0 was present, it regenerated the LiveArea again.

Unfortunately the new setup reset many folders and the position of games. How can I prevent this from happening?

I have both ux0 and uma0 filled up with games. Both need to be present I think?

No ux0 = livearea only

Backup your app.db from ur0/shell/db after you resort your games.

I'm not sure what you're meaning by this. I used switch sd2vita, mounted uma0 so that my sd2vita has games on it. Is this not the right way to use sd2vita? uma0 is my internal memory card & has my adrenaline games. ux0 has my vita library and is on sd2vita

Looks like this is exactly what this app does: https://store.brewology.com/vita/ahomebrew.php?brewid=357

as I said, you just have to backup your app.db, then replace the new one with that one. then restart. that's it.

As I said, that's what the homebrew does.

but do you really need a homebrew for this?

Wouldn't it be more convenient than going into a folder, copying it, going to another folder, pasting it. Then reversing the process on a restore?

That being said, I'm trying it & it doesn't seem like it works as I was expecting. I'll give your manual method a shot now.

godreborn · Jun 11, 2022

do it after resorting your games. folders are called by page and position iirc, actually all games and apps are. both are in the app.db.

The manual restore method worked! I guess I'll just stick with that for now. Thank you for the help.
