Hacking VITA2SD question!

[Robika]

So here is the te. I have 2 OG psvita memory cards on my Vita 2000, I use the 16 gb one with my EUR PSN account and only play legit games I own both physically and on PSN. Now I have an 8 Gb one that I use with a USA PSN account, that's where I play PKGj games and Emulators but 8 GB is really small. I got a vita2sd adapter, my question is; I want to use the VITA2SD, with a 32gb sd card and use it as the internal storage, and still use 16 gb with my legit games. Can it be done?

Vita games can only be run of ux0, so depends what you pointed as ux0.

Sort of. All Vita games have to be booted from ux0, they don't function properly on other partitions like uma0. This means, in order to use both storage devices to launch Vita games, you will need to swap the mount points of the 16GB and 32GB cards whenever you want to play a legit or pkgj game.

There are a couple of ways to swap mount points, but the easiest would be to set the SD2Vita as ux0 using PSVita StorageMgr. Then, when you want to play legit games on your Vita, turn the Vita off, remove the SD2Vita, and then reboot. StorageMgr should then use the Vita memory card as ux0, as it doesn't detect the SD2Vita.

Otherwise, you'd have to manually swap mount points by editing the StorageMgr config, reboot, and go.

Thanks I will test this tonight!
