I made this video to just fill in some questions like, best practices when soldering, what to do if the adapter keeps springing out or if the adapter gets stuck.

i have to transfer through shitty ftp. usb mode is broken for sd2vita

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

first i thought it errors because of my 256GB card but other people have the same prob

Wonder if i put all my vpks at once and then install?

 

[Purple_Heart]

dont it errors out if you take it out of the vita and back in

 

[Oschara]

Ok so next thing i would suggest would be to turn the vita completely off and then eject that sd card? Kinda like when you remove from a phone or pc without ejecting the sd card first? Idk just brainstorming.

 

[Purple_Heart]

no thats what is shitty here. i always turned of vita (if you take sd out with vita on it turns off byself)

 

[Oschara]

Gah im out of ideas

 

[Purple_Heart]

we have to wait for an enso update or an update of the sd2vita driver

 

[Oschara]

I suppose the only other alternative(with the exception of ftp) right now would be to install on the sony memory card then transfer the new contents to the sd? Overright each time? I am new to vita hacking so correct me if I am wrong.

 

[fire-god]

tried it now with FTPing, also doesn´t work......

i will try to format the sd again and copy ux0: and 2 vpk´s

 

[Oschara]

For those who have done the sd2vita. How many files do you ftp over. I only have 14 but feel like the other ones are missing. I have enabled hidden files etc.

Can sd2Vita use with Samsung evo plus SDXC memory card?

I have heard lots of reports of bad fake 256gb microsd cards. Check them with H2testw

 

[Purple_Heart]

i checked mine and it is legit

 

[Oschara]

i checked mine and it is legit

I am getting mine in thursday so i will test it and let you guys know excited for it.

I got two sd2vita cards. I tested it out and it works. I used the micro sd as uma0: and ux0 remains the proprietary memory card.
I can see uma0 on vitashell but not on molecular shell. is that normal?

Also my adrenaline disappeared

 

[Purple_Heart]

1. Use Vitashell because it is getting updates
2. Vitashell and Molecularshell dont have sd2vita support yet

While the SD2Vita is a great idea, I think I'm going to wait till the 2nd or third design that is pre soldered, and has a plastic case around the PCB so that it functions like a normal game card as far as the spring is concerned. 3.60 FW vitas are getting harder to find cheaply, I don't want to screw up the cartridge slot in the one that I have.

Seems like >128GB microSD is the problem here, right? I checked Reddit and saw people with similar problem. Another problem is once it's over 130GB, it shows no space, and they have to plug the card into a computer to copy dummy file. Delete the dummy file on Vita and that dummy file size become available

No. The problem is that if your sd is big 64+ I want to say, after formatting with win32. Your card will need to be formated in exfat, but don't leave it as default, set it to 64 kb cluster size. That will fix the problem. Just back up your sd first so you don't lose anything.

the purple card is hot!
