Hi all, I am new to Vita hacking (just got one this week). I read somewhere that if the system goes to sleep you will have issues saving? Is this still the case or has it been resolved?

Ah ok, has it been resolved? Or still can happen on latest stuff?
It didnt needed any "resolve" it was a human>dumper>machine problem
And not this shouldnt happen if you use newest dumps.
If you want to be always sure:Before entering sleep mode push psbutton

Ignore everything he said.
Yes, it is still an issue. Pressing the PS button before sleep will not work
I know this because I'm playing the Maidump version of Trails of Cold Steel from the torrent and lost about 3 hours of progress because I forgot about the save bug after not playing my vita for a while.
What you need to do is always save before you put your vita to sleep and google a "fix" that works for some people that involves changing to a 12 hour clock and deleting a certain file in your uxo folder.

It was an old bug lol

Is it a newest dump ?
I got also a problem with game but switching to latest dump fixed it

Also i said ps button cuz it pauses game (request pausing ) and if game is on "nopause" state it will show an red circle on the left corner

I'm on the latest henkaku and this still happens to me. Playing an Uncharted Vitamin 2 dump. I too thought pressing the PS button would help but it doesn't

Personally finished uncharted playing whole week without turning off vita.
Always using maidump
Im still saying that is a bad dump problem (or only for some sys/vitas)

Or i am just the lucky guy for which everything works fine

After losing all my saves TWICE, I stopped taking the Vita seriously. The first time my Vita memory card got screwed up somehow when it was powered off nearly a year (inside its protective hard case).

Second time was after I tried dumping a couple games with Vitamin. And this is VERY IMPORTANT, I >>NEVER<< put my Vita to sleep. Not trying to blame Vitamin, could be pure coincidence but it definitely had nothing to do with Vita sleep mode.

On the note of saves. If you install a game, make sure you use a homebrew save dumper to backup your save before you delete it. Sony really wanted to push PS Plus and cloud saves so they made it so you deleting a game deletes your save

What you need to do is always save before you put your vita to sleep and google a "fix" that works for some people that involves changing to a 12 hour clock and deleting a certain file in your uxo folder.
You might want to remove that certain sure as it houses ROMs.

There isn't a fix for it until a better dumping tool is released or the current ones are updated. Just save your games at every possible time and you should be fine.

Already mentioned earlier, Apparently does not work for every one

who doesn't it work for?

they probably aren''t doing it properly.

I'm not sure if you actually need to do anything to the clock though, since i'm always using a 12 hour one i didn't have to change it.

The vita "world" is still not fully explored -- if is not working for somene dont mean that hes doing something bad

The problem is ongoing.
I even get this problem with FFX (cardridge). If i loaded a savestate with henkaku on, and go in to sleepmode for severall hours, after i turn on the vita, and try to load my (cardridge-)saves, theyre all corupt.

well i only see one person saying it doesn't work on some vitas "apparently" with nothing to back that up.

it worked perfectly for anyone i told to use the list.dat fix, who did it properly.

But i dont have those errors (i had only once with P4G but newest dump fixed that) -- that means that im doing something wrong?¿

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
