Vita Plugin Issue?

[Nakamichi]

Ever since i i used "Autoplugin II" to update a DRM-related plugin my vita now crashes soon after boot.
I only knows its a DRM-related one, but not which one precisely.

is there a way to get it working again?
Iirc my .txt file containing the plugins to load (as well as the plugins themselves) are on my Vita Slims internal Storage.

Try taking the SD2Vita adapter and microSD out of your Vita. Connect your microSD card to your PC via standard SD adapter, go into your tai folder and try to figure out which plugin you used that screwed the pooch. If you can't determine which plugin it was, take them all OFF of the card, place the SD2Vita adapter (with microSD card) back in, and start loading up your plugins onto your Vita via Autoplugin until you find the plugin you installed that's making your Vita crash. You should at least remember WHAT you were doing to your Vita when all this happened, so you'll recognize it in Autoplugin II, so just load your other plugins back to your Vita via Autoplugin, and STAY AWAY from said plugin.

Let us know how it goes!!!

disabled all but storagemgr and henkaku. that worked and it no longer crashed during boot or while rebuilding database.

... couldnt start molecularshell or vitashell anymore tho for some reason.
Got the error "insert a ps vita card that contains this application"
going into safe mode and rebuilding database didnt help either.
without molecularshell or vitashell i cant access ur0 (my internal storage) to edit my config.txt
i have no idea what the issue is

Yes you can, but the only way to access the ur0 folder is via FTP... have you ever used an FTP client with your Vita? If so then you should have the necessary infor to input on the FTP program. That is to say, if you've ever used it, it should still be the default username and pass. Port is always 1337.

Dunno exactly what you've done with your plugins, have you been able to put your SD2Vita back in and boot the Vita?

no molecularshell or vitashell means no FTP.
i can only connect to my vita via FTP with an app allowing me to connect, i cant run any such app.

Ah shit, sorry about that, I rarely use FTP at all. My bad!

i managed to reinstall molecularshell and it works by reloading the henkaku exploit in my browser by going to henkaku.xyz/go

...now my sd2vita wont run even tho i copied over my old "tai" folder.
im soooooo ready to just eat my vita and be done with it -.-

Hey chief, worse comes to worse you just remove the hack (PROPERLY!!!), restore your Vita to factory settings, then re-hack your Vita! Put it this way, you're lucky it's a software thing (which can always be fixed as opposed to a HARDWARE THING, which means you're FUCKED. Just do the above and you'll have a brand new hacked Vita that's ready to rock and roll. I understand losing all your games, apps, settings and save files is a pain in the ass, but you can get all of that back.

Let us know how it goes!

i forced reinstall of henkaku by opening the exploit website and hammering r1 quickly (more than once actually)
eventually that returned me to a state where i had molecularshell back.

manual setup for neither YAMT nor storagemgr worked for some reason.
using autoplugin 2 to set it up worked, even tho i have no clue why when the lines i created before, and commented out with # to compare later, were letter for letter exactly identical?? the storage config file remained exactly the same, too.

I fixed it now, games boot, homebrew boots, im beginning to suspect Filezilla was to blame, i set transfer mode to "binary" now and it seems to transfer my files without issue now, but i cant be sure what caused this or what fixed this.

i was so sure this could only possibly end with me losing all my data man.
