Okay so my current set up is a phat Vita running 3.65 Henkaku ENSO with a 64gb official memory card and a 128gb microSD card in SD2VITA (in one of the old smiley faced adapters, if that makes a difference).
I bought one of the newer SD adapters (the ones that look like an actual cart) for, like, $3 off Wish. It arrived yesterday and I switched my SD card from the old adapter into the new one. Booted the Vita up and noticed that it was taking a while to boot. ENSO logo came up, then black screen with flashing blue PS button. No worries, I figure, just hold down the power button for 30 seconds and reboot the device manually. With the new adapter, the orange light next to it at the top was flashing nonstop whilst trying to boot. Nothing, except black screen again.
Okay, so I assumed the new adapter is a dud and switch back to the old one. Boot up to the ENSO logo and then get the "You must update the software to use this memory card" message. Weird, not detecting the SD2VITA. Reboot again, this time turning the power off properly and holding L + power to reset Henkaku. No dice, it just boots immediately to the memory card and gives me the same update warning. None of my old Henkaku bubbles exist, despite booting with the ENSO logo. No molecularshell or VitaShell etc.
So now I'm stuck with a Vita I can't use and am too afraid to update. To be fair, it won't kill me to update because I compulsively buy my Vita games on the PSN, but I don't wanna lose access to emulation homebrew and that extra 128gb of storage.
The SD card looks fine, I'm backing up the data as we speak.
tl;dr SD2VITA seems to have broken ENSO 3.65.
