Guys, Hackinformer is "double checking everything"...
Edit: Well, it turned out to be a huge pile of absoluetely nothing. Move along, guys...

What are you using? In ARK you should be able to boot them if you manually select them in the file browser. TN-V needs a plugin to be able to look into other folders that aren't /GAME.
i am trying to play them from ark
but all PS1 games i convert never boot
what worse , every failed attempt , all the size of the game goes to the vita system memory
it can take up to 10GB
What are you using to convert them? I use PSX2PSP. First make sure that the ISOs you are creating are working. Use Retroarch or ePSXe to test them on your PC before converting them.
Honestly, I wouldn't mess with ARK and PSX games right now. ARK-3's source code was made public a few days ago, so it's a matter of time before it's released for current firmwares with much better support for PSX games (and sound!).
i also used PSX2PSP
however , i put the files inside the ark folder , like this
ARK_01234/CRASH3/EBOOT.PBP
or replace CRAH3 with id name
Are "email tricks" from Mr.Gas and TomTom still being developed?
I remember the day when these hacks were announced there was a word about these features:
– Switch PSN account
– Make CMA backups for anyone (without linked PSN account)
But so far, there is nothing of that kind.
EDIT: Found it, if anyone tried lemme know.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
Is there a good place to find Onemenu themes for ARK? The anime one that came with it is finally driving me insane.
Well...I tried using my PSTV with my 64GB card and as expected it requested an update to 3.55, almost surely with the loss of the whitelist hack
Ah well. Had better give it a go. I can always trade it into CEX after...
....
Guess Ill be keeping it. Deleting all internet settings though for sure.

Ys Celceta got added to the official whitelist. Better check your other games.
They all work fine.
it appears that there a company released an ugly tool to play "shared" games and require always online DRM and big dongle hang u from the Vita and you should stay at home to use it.
For what i understand, you can only use the shared games when the people who are using this tool are online and they putting the game in that device to share it P2P , then you chose the game from your PC and it will send the game to the dongle.
Even the name is stupid, cobra black fun.
In other news, major Tom released a method to dump your own PS Vita card game , and can be used on 3.55 too.

It's been fun, but I updated to the latest firmware. I figure if I really have an itch to play emulators on the go, I'll pony up and get the GPD XD which will always be better than Vita homebrew, if it gets hacked. For now I'll keep my Vita updated for new games and remote play.

Same here. Playing great new games >> replaying older ones. Though I still kept my Ark bubble just in case.

I made a thread about it that got locked and said the exact same thing about this staying open no issues too. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1152413&highlight=
Not sure why that got locked when it would actually be kinda cool to discuss the logistics and tech behind it. Even more odd when other flashcart threads (gateway/sky3DS) have stayed open without locking in the past.
Maybe because you included the link for that site.
Hey, guys. There's going to be a new ePSP exploit for 3.55 using Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops+. Just letting you know.
So I'm on 3.51 and wanna access the store, but the update blocker doesn't work.
I did the initial email hack. If I install the whitelist thing, will it still work after updating, or does the update nuke that?
Edit: Well is there any way to transfer games to the pstv without the store?

1. Use opencma to connect your vita to a PS3. You wont need to update the vita. Google the procedure.
2. No, remote play is out of the question. Remote play requires PSN sign in so unfortunately not.
pls gaf
Look at the post right above. Use a PS3 with the OpenCMA trick.
Does that work with PS tv since it doesn't have wifi and updateblocker doesn't work any more?
You need a usb cord to connect to your PC with opencma and then connect to your PS3 immediately through usb
thanks
edit: and that's for vita games yes? Not just psx games?
Wish there was a way to transfer from vita to pstv. Gotta find a PS3 somewhere lol.

How well is the hack at playing PS1 Originals?
I've been thinking about using the exploit to play some hidden gems from the PS1 era.

ePSP hacks don't have anything to do with PSX games, at least not directly. You'll need a loader to boot them, which can be installed through the hack, but the hack itself doesn't really factor in when dealing with PSX performance.
That being said, PSX support on Vita isn't that hot, really. ARK-2 can run basically any PSX game, but without sound. TN-V has sound support, but performance is overall pretty bad (very few games play flawlessly).
IMO, you're better off buying a PSP for PSX games than trying to use your Vita for them.

That's disappointing to hear as I saved the rips I made for my PSP years ago.
I just got a Vita with 3.12 firmware. What am I capable of doing?

Are there any ePSP emulators that top the latest for the N3DS?
I didn't realise the PSTV could be connected to PC (and PS3) via USB... I guess it requires a cable I just don't have.
As for exploits, it looks like there's one for Pool Hall Pro that is ePSP-based and doesn't require ad-hoc multiplayer with another exploited PSP/Vita to work. With my PSTV being on 3.50, that should work yes? And via that I'll be able to play PSP titles? Mostly because I want to buy Ultimate Ghosts n Goblins (and play OG Lumines) but it's not available in the AU/EU store :/

No, you can't. It's only over the network, since the PSTV has a host-only USB port.
Not a chance.
Speaking as someone who has both to hand. N3DS is a whole another level by comparison.

So if I hack my Vita right now (and I can), I can't run PS1 or PSP ISOs and the emulators are inferior to 3DS. I guess I might as well upgrade.
You can run PSP ISOs, though.

PBP files? That's good. The OP hasn't been updated since 2012; is there a more up-to-date guide?
Check out the link posted right above you and follow through the steps, it'll bring up a list of firmwares and their applicable exploits

I have a question which also is a problem...
I have a Vita-1000 with FW3.18 and recently I bought Vita TV which I updated to FW3.55 so I can play latest games.
Previously I had 2 memories, the original 4Gb with 3.18 and another 16Gb with 3.18
I was planning to keep the 16Gb one on Vita-1000 and the 4Gb one on Vita TV, so I just made a backup of 16Gb using QCMA
The problem is when I updated Vita TV to FW3.55 I was thinking there was the 4Gb memory inside but it was the 16Gb one...
So my question is what happens if I put that memory on Vita-1000 ? still FW3.18 or FW3.55 ?
Firmware is memorized on the memory card or into the internal memory ?
