yifanlu is making an SD adapter for PS Vita 3G

I am waiting to see if some other board or mod is available for the non 3G PCH-1000, or a Vita game cart to microSD adapter is available. I have a 64gb Vita card now, so I can wait...

You realize to enable the port you just need to do a tiny amount of soldering on the non 3G boards, it's not that hard tbh.

 

search up a non 3G PS Vita motherboard and a 3G one, spot the difference? , just add the parts , the port is a Mini PCI-E port , don't attempt to use Mini PCI-E card though because the PS Vita uses the pins differently.

Side note: Only applies to 1xxx series.

 

adding the port itself would not be nessesary, just soldering to the contacts on the board would be good enough.

 

So i have 3 vita's with oled and wifi.. 3g? dunno.. So i wouldnt be able to use this?
Ps I hope 256 GB sd carud will be supported.

 

i have question if vita 3g port is simple usb port its possible to take usb sd card reader and remade it to use in vita like a Yifanlu module?

 

I was wondering if the non 3G version would still have the contacts further up the circuit.
So maybe we could hard mod the non 3G to hook up to this pcb?

 

yep exactly , just easier for the people who don't want to lookup the pin outs.

 

How long do you think will it take till a third party producer will catch up to this?

 

Too long. There isn't even a working base board, let alone the kernel to run it. Also no, there's a resistor or smth missing on the non3G board that you need to solder for the lane to work

 

Vi Venezuela, upvote! Saludos!

Sory for the offtopic.

 

I meant the molecule board for the 3G Vita. But thanks anyway

 

UPDATE: yifan_lu has decided to up the manufacturing from 100 units to 500 units, so if you're still hankering for one of these, here's your next chance to pick one up. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ps-vita-3g-to-microsd-card-adapter#/

 

Here's hoping they'll still be around by the time I get my money next week. (I doubt it...)

 

I ordered one but i don't know how to install it ? Do i need to solder ? Is my vita card (64gb) with my henkaku install and bubbles will coexist with the future Enso-sdcard or should i have to reinstall everything ?
THX

 

i cant get one because i need a credit card god damn!

 

The way USB currently works on PSTV is either as UMA0 (an external drive to copy/paste files from other partitions from, or supply VPK for installation) or as UX0 (as the main storage, so the memory card is disabled)
Bubbles from the memory card will stay while usb is mounted as ux0, but of course can't be launched

No soldering, you just remove the modem and insert the adapter in the now free slot

 

You need a 3G Vita, you just open it up and then replace the modem card with this. No soldering required.

As to how it will work, we don't know, it's not out yet. I imagine it'll be the same as USB sticks on the PSTV.

 

50% already sold...

Was considering to buy one (before the console...) but it feels too much of a waste
