I haven't used the PS VITA TV in a while and I forgot how I did this before.

1st is, every time the PS Vita boots / reboots / etc, i need to remove the USB and plug it back in for it to acknowledge it

2nd is, my main purpose is trying to run Adrenaline to play PSX games but i basically can't get it to work because

Boot up PS Vita ==> Mount UMA ==> Mount USB to UX ==> Install Adrenaline ==> Vita needs to reboot per installer's instructions ==> It repeats from the Boot up PS Vita all over, endless loop. I can only get to launch Adrenaline when using VITA TV's internal memory, which is not what i want, i want it to do USB as I have the games on the USB.

Get yourself an SD2VITA
 
Are you using usbmc or StorageMgr? I'd definitely recommend the latter as I used to have problems sometimes with USB with very early versions of usbmc and StorageMgr totally replaces the need for separate stuff. As for the SD2Vita suggestion? I can't see a reason why you'd want to use that.
 
I'm reading the faq but i'm highly confused with hos to setup storagemgr.

On PSVITA TV, what is the MCD, INT, GCD, UMA suppose to be ?

also, will this fix the part where i have to replug the USB Flash drive in when coming from a boot (turning it on) of PS Vita TV? Right now, I can't mount unless if i deplug and replug the flashdrive in (no matter what flash drive). I can't mount it other wise (it gives me a message in Vitashell to do that)

Well, from the readme "NOTE: for using USB mass on h-encore, you have to boot PSTV, plug out USB mass, plug in USB mass then launch h-encore.", so it really depends on if you're using h-encore or enso (3.60 or 3.65); personally, I'm on 3.60 enso and don't have to unplug/plug my usb mass storage. As far as what storage_config.txt should contain, I went by what the guide said and it'd worked for me.

i saw that it doesn't mention on what to write in for storage-config.txt unless if im misunderstanding it, all it says is
Your new storage device is now configured and ready for use at the mount point specified in your storage_config.txt.

i read the text, but dont know what i need to point it too

ADD:
I am on 3.60 and it says Henkaku-10 right next to it, don't knwo if that's hencore or not

Like I said, the guide will tell you in the "What You Need". You probably only need INT=imc0 and UMA=ux0 lines with MCD=uma0 being up to you if you want to use a Sony Memory card.

Henkaku is henkaku. H-encore is h-encore. They're separate things. If you have henkaku at boot without having to run a browser exploit or whatever, you have enso henkaku. Either way, you shouldn't have to unplug/plug your usb.
 
arg..i can't get this work so i formatted my the Vita TV. now i can't get it to install MolecularShell and can't connect to QCMA so i'm stuck a few steps back now

after few attemps and guessing, i finally got to get henkaku back on its feet and also, now the USB seems to read fine on bootup / wakeup. i didn't really do anything different so probably something with old settings
