Release: Qwikrazor releases Custom Bubble Installer for firmware 3.5x exploit games!
Did you buy one of the firmware 3.5x exploit games, even though they were kind of useless? Are you struggling with Tom’s/Gas’ Custom Bubbles?
Would you prefer an easier & qwik’er method to set up Custom Bubbles? In that case Qwikrazor has a solution for you!
Our good friend Qwikrazor has decided to release his Custom Bubble Installer for the PS Vita firmware 3.52 and below. This Custom Bubble Installer can easily set up a few Custom Bubbles, and in terms of simplicity Qwikrazor’s Custom Bubbles cannot be beated.
Before we do anything at all, be sure to create a backup of your exploit game. Check your CMA folder on your Computer and search for your exploit games TitleID. Then manually copy the exploit games folder from the CMA directory to any other directory. We want a seperate backup!
So what do you have to do? At first you have to transfer 2 savedata folders from your PC to your PS Vita (we suggest QCMA for this). Afterwards you run your exploit game and trigger the exploit (how to do this varies from game to game).
The exploit game should show you a green screen and then automatically close itself. If this is the case then you’ve done everything right.
The next step requires the Content Manager once again. This time we copy from our PS Vita to our PC. We select our PSP exploit game and copy it to our PC.
Now we close the Content Manager Application on our PS Vita and re-open it. This time we copy from PC to Vita. We copy our exploit game from our PC back to our PS Vita (do it twice, just to be sure) and that’s it.
If we now go back to the place where our exploit game was, we should find an ARK Custom Bubble (if the Icon didn’t change to the ARK one, re-copy the exploit game from PC to Vita).
This ARK Custom Bubble can now be used to easily & qwik’er start the ARK-2 eCFW on your PS Vita.
Keep in mind that the linked ARK files are designed to work with PS Vita system software 3.5x, and may fail on Version 3.3x. Use files designed for Version 3.3x to use ARK-2 on Version 3.3x.
That’s pretty much it. This is an easy way to get your very own ARK-2 Custom Bubble on your PS Vita, if you happen to have one of the firmware 3.5x exploit games, that is.
These Custom Bubbles can only be created on firmware 3.52 and below, but happen to work on firmware 3.55 as well, as long as you have created the Bubble prior to updating to 3.55!
If you do not have one of the 3.5x exploit games, then check out our upcoming blogpost, which will talk about how you can get this easy ARK-2 Custom Bubble with a non-exploitable PSP game.

First!
I can’t make this work for World of Pool. When I put the files on my save folder, on my vita I can’t see the save data. I am using QCMA and 3.52.
Refresh the database on QCMA.
Omg! That went so smoothly! Much easier that the long version! And I think I’m first lol
No one ever tried to release anything beyond custom bubble. Not that im complaining or anything but vita scenes don’t seem to pass beyond CB
Wops i only have patapon, ill wait. Thanks.
i follow all the step from the video tutorial with hall of pool pro and ark-2 keep telling me that the exploit failed to work
Same here but with Puzzle Quest.
Scape*
Yeah, I also have this “Loading”, then “Exploit failed”, with Puzzle Scape on 3.52.
Me too I even did it twice!
I just used APE QUEST as a base to load POOL HALL PRO then used the old exploit game save to load ARK 😀
*** why
Everytime i load up World of Pool i get a blue screen and then i get a message “An error has occurred.”
What to do ?
nvm, fixed it.
The files linked up here are 3.50 only, download the 3.52 version posted on qwikrazor’s twitter.
Oh wow i feel so stupid! I just saw that too. I am on 3.52 install 3.50 files! lol
I charge the save and game normal running-game World of pool
copy the folder where ark1234?
I need to update my vita to back up? plz somebody help me ? how I can make a back up without a update
use QCMA and turn off ur WIFI & enabled airplanes mode , that should work 🙂
Same please help!!! Zett
You guys are noobs. Get QCMA, turn your vita on flight mode, reboot it, run qcma, connect your vita. Done.
Noob here also 🙂 Thanks, reboot was the key!!!
Can you backup and transfer the bubble via QCMA to a 2nd Vita?
I have 1 on 3.18 and 1 on 3.55.
If I make the bubble on 3.18 can I transfer it to the 3.55 vita?
i do all the same , but the result is ” exploit failed” . im 3.52 and run it on pool hall pro. and after i let it on exploit failed an error pop up C1-bla bla-bla . can fix it ?
i am not able to do a backup up of puzzle scape due to qcma cant recognize the psvita and yhe content manager say that i have to upgrade the firmware 🙁
So i need my php 3.52 files and do the rest of your totural
Every Time when I connect to PC it asked me to update
For me Ape Quest failed with grey screen en error code c1-2858-3. But pool hall pro worked and I’m using 138menu.
How did you get 138Menu?
I used qikrazr’s method with pool hall pro, but i just get a basic ark menu.
Hellppppp
I simply put the 138menu files inside the ark save folder ‘ark01234′. Download from http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=33511, there are some themes there.

Maybe someone can help. Sorry for my bad english^^
man vc é br ? pf me ajuda , como eu faço o back up sem precisar atualizar o vita
search in the tweets of qwikrazor and look for the pastebin of the fw 3.52 exploit games.
I now have ark running on my ps vita 3.52
Also note that 3.51 and 3.52 run a custom ark and not ark-2
I installed the bubble, but once I get the the menu none of my homebrew loads. Everything just makes ARK-2 exit. Bubble made using Rockman Rockman (JP) on 3.52

I have the same problem. Did you solve it?
For the folks experiencing the “exploit failed” screen, wololo doesn’t have the links for the 3.52 firmware files. The ones you see linked here are for 3.50 official firmware and below. To get the files for the 3.52 firmware, you’ll have to go to the youtube video, and you’ll find the links there in the description.
I just got a ps vita and it was on version 3.55 I want to play some snes and gba games can anyone help me please?
sadly there is nothing you can do at the moment. There is no way to run any kind of homebrew on 3.55, so you won’t be playing any snes or gba games.
You can run custom bubbles on 3.55, as long as the first bubble is created on 3.52 before being updated.
This doesn’t help him at all but saying its not possible to run homebrew on 3.55 is false
I have success with this method but :
1- Make follow method above
2- Use save ARK_01234 of base game (Petz Saddle Demo US FREE) . I dont use new save ARK of link
I hope this will help to guys . Tks all
anyone can give me link of googledrive . I cannot get the link http://pastebin.com/JRk8jA1M ( it say DNS error and only show an empty page )
Now all is ok but im very confused. I want to play psp iso but i cant find any good tutorial. I think i need the pspfiller. But nothing want to go. Can somebody help me? Maybe german?^^
I use vitaftp to transfer small games to \iso folder. For larger games i transfer as savedata and then move the file with filer.
can you explain how i can install the filer? Or you know a good tutorial?
Can you explain how i can install the filer? Or you know a good tutorial? I tried so many things but nothing worked
I think Ark comes with filer. I’m sure 138menu has a built in file explorer, i’m currently using that one.
Can you please in detail how to install larger psp games or link me to a tutorial?
Can you explain please? That will be very nice
damn i dont have any psp base game the game i have is all vita T.T no hope for me im at 3.51
it worked really easy for me but I dont know how to use ARK….I understand and I did transfer ISOS through savedata….but how can I run them? I see them and press Start but then ARK closes….
it worked really easy for me but I dont know how to use ARK….I understand and I did transfer ISOS through savedata….but how can I run them? I see them and press Start but then ARK closes….should we put everything in ARK folder? ISO folder??
I got it all running but having a hard time trying to find any guide to allow me to run one of my psp ISO. I moved it over and I can see it but I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong can any one link a video or more descriptive tutorial than the few I have found?
Got this running on my 3.52 VitaTV. Can’t find a reason I did this, but I did with RockmanRockman 3.52 exploit.
Running PSP iso/homebrew fine.
Maybe I should get a DekaVita…
Guys, thanks for your job. Everything works fine. You are the best)
Easy for use and works good)
Who gets on 3.52 “Exploit failed” download files not for 3.50, get for 3.52. Good Luck!
I updated PS Vita to 3.55 / Don’t created Bubble in 3.52 / I can make bubbles in 3.55 without exploit game ?
I just created a CB on my 3.52 Vita slim and it works on my 3.55 fat using world of pool. Happy days well done to all involved.
How come whenever I try to copy the folder it says ARK_01234 and not ARK-2? i think thats my problem
Hi Mate thats just the naming convention for the directory, once it is transferred, the bubble icon will show ARK 2
hi people, my name is hostputo. I will teach you how to install ISO using this hack. FIRST you need to download QCMA, get tutorials in the internet to install and use it . Then you need to execute this ARK, just read the tutorial above Wololo net. Then you need to install VITAFTP you can learn it here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-99THG_puZQ after that you will need to download any ISO, YOU NEED TO RENAME THAT ISO, the name can’t have more than 8 letters and all letters must be in capital letter and at the end of the name put .ISO ex:GODOFWAR.ISO wiithout any space and dots. After this you need to transfere the ISO to ps vita through VITA FTP you can learn how do it here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPhYabvytcA . Then you click Square and go to games, and your game you ‘ll be ready to run, finish . I USING 138MENU , I DON’T KNOW IF THIS METOD RUN IN NORMAL MENU. to install 138 menu you download it from the internet and copy the itens in ARK file and transfere to your ARK_01234 (the ARK_01234 is in PSAVEDATA). thanks and bye
followed guide (well ok, I copied the wrong files first) but then I re- read it and it WAS PERFECT excellent work all.
i cant seem to install any emulators…iso/cso play pretty much fine on my vita & vita tv @ 3.52. i can launch 138 menu from a previous install, but can’t seem to install anything from it. is this typical?
