You have to hex edit one of the files to point at a different folder, I hex-edited it from TNV to TNX, check out the link in my signature it points to a YouTube vid where below you can get the files if you don't want to do it yourself :-)

Thank you!

When you're at your friend's house, try to download and transfer the Treasure Park application from your PS3 to your Vita (activating it in the process), as I'm sure that application needs an update when you first download it. As for initiating the game update, simply click the yellow circle with the downwards arrow on the Treasure Park's LiveArea screen.

You can't access any PSN features under the latest Firmware.

I have an issue transfering the PSP demos iv downloaded on the PS3 to my PS Vita, when i click on content manager after on PSP Games the list is empty, i already transfer successfully my PS Vita apps from the PS3 but is not showing up any of the PSP demos i downloaded, is there anything special im required to do?

Update: i tried several psp demos, the only one i found to work was
LocoRoco™ Midnight Carnival Demo
the rest of them dont show up on the content manager list of my vita, im now going to follow the tv11 guide of the main post and update my results once done. (hopefully successfull)

Update1: i manage to install TN-V11 following the procedure on the main post but when i start TN-V11 buble, i get the psp letters and all that but after that i just get a white screen, no mattar how many times or how i keep pressing the R Trigger, any clues here guys? im trying to find an answer on google but so far no luck

Update2: i did it since im on 3.50 fw i had to use the 3.50 tn-v11 files cause aparently the 3.52 files dont work hehe

Okay so I have a vita with 3.55 FW. I got an exploitable game and the save data. I have ark-2 installed and can access the e-psp but for the life of me I cant get any homebrew to work! I also have access to ftp.
from what I understand, u take the folder like nester j. Put it in a folder called GAME and put that in a psp folder, so it looks like psp/GAME/nester j. Then add that to an archive with no compression and name it INSTALL.ZIP. So I take the INSTALL.ZIP and use content manager to move it to where my save data is and copy it back over. Then install it from your psp section. So when I do that, i trigger the exploit and go to the psp. A blue line runs down the screen. Then I noticed if I hit R I get something called a blue screen of death. I take the install.zip out and it goes away. Ive also tried to put it on via ftp but that shows corrupt data. PLEASE help me. Ive been trying to get ANYTHING to work since october. Many thanks.

my buddy and i both get the mail.db file as a question mark that reads "this file is not compatible with this system." we're both 3.52. we've tried the fixes that we've found online, but even those fixes don't function the way they're supposed to so we're both stuck. any ideas? we've searched online but the pstv / vita scene isn't that big, so i figured i'd just ask here. thanks in advance!
