F.A.Q

I use an older version of the homebrew (lower than 2.0), Can I update safely ?

Yes, you can. SwitchSD2Vita 2.0 and above detect if you have an old installation. You just need to use the uninstall option.

Where can I download it?

You can download here and install like any like Vita homebrew. But the application is also available on VitaDB and so you can install it thanks to Vita Homebrew Browser.

The homebrew includes StorageMgr plugin?

Yes. Just install this homebrew to manage your plugin installation.

How to disable the plugin?

Just use uninstall option and reboot your vita to disable the plugin.

What is the MCD option added in 2.1 version?

The MCD option was added to answer to the issue #14.

The official vita memory is not applied as uma0 if you choose the ux0 by default. This option correct this problem with a MCD option which is added in StorageMgr config file (uma0 for ux0 installation or else ux0).

By default, the option is activated but you can easily deactivated this one in the main menu if you want to continue to use it like before this update.

What data are stored by SwitchSD2Vita on my device?

The application store some data :

  • the MCD option
  • the current version of SwitchSD2Vita you use (to prevent problem with future migrations).

You can find the file config.json in ux0:data/SwitchSD2Vita directory.
