I think i messed up my vita

[sornek7]

I recently bought a psvita so i could have a cheap way to my favourite games on the go, the homebrew process was pretty easy but i followed a tiktok tutorial (first mistake), and i think i formatted my sd wrong. i realized this too late, and downloaded a bunch of games on the wrong drive, and when i switched over to the right drive i couldn’t download the games i downloaded on the other drive, please help!

I have modded mine two years ago more or less, so I don't remember, sorry!

First thing, I hope someone can help/guide you in undoing whataver you've done wrong, second, please use this guide to see if you've done everything fine and maybe understand where things went wrong.

If the games are already in your sd, and you can see them opening the Vita Deploy - File Manager, you should then be able to copy-paste them in the right folder (ux0, should be, but don't follow my ideas before reading carefully the guide and reading other posts that may be more helpful).

Last thing, congrats for your purchase, and I hope you'll be able as soon as possible to enjoy all the games you want!!

my memory is sketchy too...

try using a tool like yamt or something. you will want the sd2vita on ux0:/

not sure but i think you have to use the zzblank image on the sd card or it won't work

Can't help you with that myself but I do have some piece of advice: do NOT follow a video tutorial for these kind of things, no matter the source. They usually get outdated pretty quickly, and even worse, they are not as thorough, sometimes missing important details.

Hope you can fix your issue and enjoy your Vita as soon as possible!

I would recommend to watch video tutorials of different people, then follow the Vita hacks guide to understand better what is talking about. As longestseason said, never follow a video tutorial unless it is pretty recent and it is from somebody that knows its stuff. It's usually better to get the tools from their respective websites rather than from an all-in-one package in a link below the video.

3 weeks ago I had to follow that guide because I got an unexpectedly super cheap Vita 2000 in very good condition but it is easy to forget when you haven't done that in months or years.

Good luck.

UPDATE: i fixed it by rebuilding the database and all my bubbles showed back up and are ready to play!
