I wouldn't use a youtube tutorial for most things. they tend to leave things out (didn't watch the video). since you have an oled mode. it's a 1K without internal storage. there was a way to get internal storage, but I'm not sure if it works. you'll need either that or a memory card to get started iirc.

you need to downgrade if you want enso. it's only available on 3.60 and 3.65. it's a full hack. only do so if your system is downgradable to that version. all us and probably europe systems are, but some japanese systems aren't.

did you downgrade? the vita is about as easy to hack as the ps3 thanks to good devs.
I did it done everything, but i have some question which i dont get the answer to it i did all of this with the original sd card from my ps vita (i have a fat ps vita oled screen) but i want to upgrade to a 128gb sd card do i need to copy something or do i just take out the sd card and replace it with the new one?

you can copy everything with vita shell. if you're already using a micro sd card, you can copy everything on the pc. make sure to enable hidden files and os files in folder tools in windows.

you want to replace an sd2vita with an official memory card?

it won't brick, but it will rebuild the database, which means some things may not appear on the livearea.

it will only rebuild the database if the adapter is smaller. it won't brick the system. there's almost no way to perm brick the vita unless you start deleting stuff from the os0 partition. that's the core os.
