PS VITA / PS TV (PSTV) VitaDefilerClient Installer Without The Need Of A Vita

​

Are you a frustrated PSTV owner because don't own a Vita in order to have access to all needed files in to fully Rejuvenate your PSTV with PSM+ thus bringing life to the system finally? Something it seems even Sony has failed to do calling our beloved system a "legacy" device. Well wait no more folks the answer to all your prayers are finally here thanks to the marvelous mr. gas and SMOKE!! No worries about the [break].[/break]limitations of 3.51 & lower or the lockout at firmwares 3.52 and more.

​

Installation Method
​

Instructions:
1. Copy the UNITY-TV folder for your Unity app version to CMA's PSAVEDATA/<random numbers>/ folder.
2. Copy the savedata to your PSTV ( You will need to use VitaUpdateBlocker )
3. Make sure you have no notifications and are not downloading anything.
4. Rebuild database in recovery.
5. Using Outlook or Thunderbird, forward the eml to your email account.
6. Find any Vita app or game that has an update available, click update, and then pause the download.
7. Open the Email app and click the attachments one at a time.
It should show an error that says it could not display the image. DO NOT click the ok button.
Instead, press home and close the Email app.
8. Once you have installed both files, reboot your PSTV again.
9. Then, continue the download. The download should now be ~5mb. If not, something went wrong.
10. Once downloading is complete, open the Unity app ( You might need to install PSM+ ) and delete the 0000 "app"
11. You should now only have Vita Defiler Client installed in Unity. Now you can cancel the installation notification.

How to update if you have used this method before:
1. Simply FTP the Application & System folders from this pack to cache0:/VitaDefilerClient/
eg. I have Unity 1.06, so the folders and files I need to replace on my PSTV are in Unity 1.06/UNITY-TV/p/VitaDefilerClient/

Troubleshooting:
-To install PSM+ on your PSTV, use the Device ID your Vita assuming you have a Vita as well. (**Hint Youtube can help with this and will not risk anyone's account or system**)

Credits:
mr.gas for the trick
SMOKE for preparing files & writing instructions

**PLEASE NOTE**​

PSM Unity v1.05 for 3.20 and below and PSM Unity v1.06 is for firmware 3.36+. Both are included here in the install zip. The latest EML File Generator 0.3 can be found here at Major Tom's github page. Also one MUST use Codestations (Windows & OSX flavors available) QCMA and since the PSTV lacks USB support one must set the app to 3.10, allow connection without internet, spoof with the latest VitaUpdateBlocker by iAmGhost. Both PSTV/Vita need to be on the same wireless network (yes it can be on a mobile hotspot using Vita Defiler reported here earlier today so a PC or Android is also needed pick your poison) in order for PSTV to see QCMA for EML trick. I use the "pportable" version of Thunderbird with my gamil account to send EML file to write to Vita memory card. This took a lot of work to figure out the right settings so I wanted to share and save you some time/heartache. If choosing Android over a PC you may want to have a look at the link I posted earlier here as all tools and apps needed by either PC or Android are covered between the two articles as well as all the latest up to date native Vita side applications. I hope you all enjoy this as much as I have.

I've not repaired an o3ds. I've only done so with 360 controllers which may be similar with a rubber joystick, so u can replace the joystick itself by opening the system up and pulling the stick off. it's stationed on a stick coupled to the circuit board. could be the same with ur system. if it's not working in a certain direction, though, it could be dirt that's clogged a certain direction which u can clean pretty easily.

I just ordered new buttons for the thing. the actual button assembly itself was going bad. Which sucks is that my 3ds has the lines on the top screen from the bumper issue. Had i known could have sent back to nintendo to fix it might have but too late atm. Damn permanent marks

bumper issue? most of the time the buttons r just small, plastic buttons that rest on a rubber mat on top of the pcb. at least, that's the way it is with controllers, so I'd imagine it's something similar with the 3ds. in fact, 360 controllers, for example, have tabs for each button that sit in grooves, so u can't put them in in the wrong slot or in the wrong direction. those kinds of things r easy to replace. a bit more would be involved with the screen if that's what u meant by lines.

For 3ds the trigger buttons are basically plastic button that activated a button switch. The button switch itself can go bad. It's not the standard way a trigger for any controllers is like ps4 or 360. Not a rubber bumper on flat pcb sheet that is hit by the plastic button trigger. The lil button is easy to replace though since it comes as a complete part(button/flatwire/connector to the main board)
The screen will be a lil more trickey as its not the lcd that'smessed up the screen that covers the whole top half. If I can find a replacement for it will replace it then do the bumper fix so the bottom screen doesn't rub against it. Or will just get a screen protector.

the bumper buttons as well as the ribbon (eject) button on the 360 r like that. they're basically just a piece of plastic that activate a switch. I hope u don't encounter any issues with that system. I'm sure there r several videos that show how to repair various issues.
