today, July 11th 2022 i modded in 3.74 and installed vita homebrew browser, guys be patient, it took like 3 minutes to appear the UI after the black screen, but i have downloaded 4 apps so far, 100% working. thank you GameHead Nes, thanks to you i achieved modding my psvita!

Cool Video. Just recently acquired a first gen vita and successfully modded/expanded the memory capacity. Duck hunt was a favourite classic of mine and this remake is pretty cool. I have to say though while having the option of touch screen option for aiming at the ducks sounds useful, in my opinion that would make it wayyy too easy. We gotta work for the meal you know.

When I open home brew it says Error

[@TheViper4Life]

So in your tutorial for modding the Vita a message popped up about not being able to earn trophies. Was that just for that instance or can you not earn trophies anymore from Vita games once it's modded? I'm a trophy hunter and bought a Vita recently because I have 150+ games from PS+ over the years, and figured I might as well start earning Platinums on Vita too...but would love to mod it, but not at the risk of losing trophies. In other words, does the Vita still function as a Vita when using it normally?

[@SmashMyPitchUp]

It's only for the application. After jail breaking you still have access to PSN and will be able to earn trophies.

[@kat6695]

for people having problems with the homebrew browser, for me it wasn't also working. It showed an error, loaded 2 screens and stayed in a black screen. I redid the steps where you install its and homebrew and it kinda worked? Rn I cant search for games, but I have been able to instal some ports and emulators. Sometimes it fails and closes, some ports work, others not really but it's better than nothing.

[@yogabudiwidiantoro3762]

Trust me, mod your Vita even if you are an anti-piracy because the game experience you have on this system will be different (in a positive connotation) than you play it on a non-mod Vita. As an example: - Your game will run better with overclock - Your game will be more fun with cheats - You can dump your games on SD2VITA so you don't have to worry about your copy being lost or damaged. - The Japanese games that you have now can be played with the English patch (though not all Japanese games get the English patch)

Just modded mine, downloaded some of the emulators but the games won't play. What am I doing wrong

[@SuperMcbonez]

I don't get how people can be anti piracy for deprecated software. Sony are no longer supporting the vita at all. I'll happily pay for a new modern game but I'm not paying for games that are 15 plus years old. This especially applies to games that I've bought multiple times over the years
