Sorry, I've been burned quite a bit lately with fake Winit numbers, false replacement claims, and other deceptive selling practices by Chinese sellers on eBay. This only started happening this year after years of dealing with them. I'm trying out AliExpress currently to see if things go any better.

Well I do agree that the selling practices are bad, because good chance you are getting it from a bulk sellers that don't care if some are bootleg or doesn't work, large supply chains are like that, I have gotten PSVSD from Alibaba Express that doesn't work so I hope you get stuff from AliExpress that work. Buying stuff from Chinese people overseas is usually a gamble that part I agree with you.

You misunderstand. I know I am buying bootleg or non-commercial aftermarket items. They don't even send it, then give me a Winit or tracking number that doesn't exist with a delivery estimate of around two months. So it's never even in any kind of system whether it is Chinese Post or the China exclusive Winit dropshipping hub. I have always got a refund, usually voluntarily through the seller, but two months of my life are gone and I have to try to get the item from another Chinese then, since it only exists through them. A couple bad deals and you are looking at half a year to get what you wanted.

I agree with you on that too, it is very common, it is common practices on ebay and any other website for online selling for any large supply chain, good idea to avoid them, either you won't get it, doesn't work or just got lucky for the value since supply chain buy and sell bulk.

Anyways back to what I was saying lol fw update wise it's easy? And I got it from Amazon/3rd party seller so if there is an issue with anything I can take it up with them( if that even happens). Thanks for the warning tho.

That's all I'm saying with my bad experiences. I would recommend OP paying $10 for sd2vita v5 from SridentPSV rather than $3 through China. Though I'm sure many bought it from Chinese sellers and got it fine, within 2-3 weeks, the way it used to always be. Really, it's up to him, but the market seems to be worse and more scamworthy lately.

Do the DNS method to 3.65 or use the 365updater method to get to 3.65 CFW

https://github.com/TheOfficialFloW/update365

This method jump from 3.60 to 3.65, TheFl0w recommend the H-encore method.

https://vita.hacks.guide/updating-to-3.65

This is manual update to 3.65 from 3.60 , 3.61+ to 3.65

There is a DNS to set on your connection settings to block updates, read here: https://vita.hacks.guide/installing-h-encore
Just follow Section I and you should be good to go.

@WOOO1234 this one is the original design for SD2Vita.

So far I haven't seen any ban for the Vita just seem like Sony doesnt care about the Vita at all anymore, so not a big deal.

so as far as SDcard goes do I set that up like after i install enso? I read the guide and nothing really was mentioned about the memory besides if you don't have a slim (newer version of vita), you needed a ps vita memory card, which isn't the case for me.
 
lol its on 3.68. so they seller told me it was "brand new never opened" does this mean they lied? really upsetting, whole reason I bought a brand new vita lol. I know it not the end of the world but idkif im going to hack now. it really messed up. I don't see how or why it would be on 3.68. ive heard of common curtsy to check and update over in japan, but still if thats the case they opened it!!! ;ile mad confused hahaha


* someone definitely opened it. it has doa5 plus(dead or alive 5 plus)
