Vitashell 1.51 released – Important Bug Fixes
Vitashell 1.5 was a huge and awesome release (USB support) but it contained some issues. Some bugs included not being able to set themes and issues with VPK installation.
What’s Vitashell?
Vitashell is a file manager for the PSVita developed by developer “TheFlow” (aka that one that never stops working for the community). It’s quite an old piece of homebrew as it was initially released in the Rejuvinate days (3.5x) and ironically, it become more associated with HENkaku rather than anything else. Vitashell was written with the help of the Vita2D library and it includes a decent GUI that’s customisatiable via themes. You may toggle between FTP and USB modes in VitaShell 1.5 or newer. With VitaShell, you can also listen to music, view pictures, compress files and extract ZIP and RAR files.
What changed/got fixed?
The following is the changlelog of VitaShell 1.51:
- Fixed bug where ‘Please wait…’ was shown instead of a specifc USB message.
- Fixed VPK installation crash.
- Fixed bug where ‘theme.txt’ was always reset.
- Updated to newest libftpvita.
All the bugs listed proved to be quite an annoyance for users so it’s recommended you update to this version as soon as possible. The community thanks developer “TheFlow” for working a lot in order to support and develop the community.
If you can’t get it via Online Automatic Updating (no internet connection), you can get it directly from TheFlow’s github page: https://github.com/TheOfficialFloW/VitaShell/releases/tag/1.51 (Don’t get this from an untrusted source as it’s unsafe homebrew since it access all system partitions).

Please quit wasting your time…
Cool update though.
I need to swap memory card while henkaku is running…Or I need to use my memory card from FW 3.63 on my henkaku vita T^T
Mr.Mipo read this about updated for 3.61 or 3.63 for user update there PSVITA system and you cannot not run Henkaku because you shouldn’t update before Sony release the update software and you going to have to wait until there a new expoit and however even if you try and there no way to run Henkaku for 3.61/3.63!
u stupid nub there are no hacks at 3.63 forget it that will take 5 to 10 years before that FW will be hacked again nub
thank you for this TheFlow.
HI,
I have done installing the VPK.. 1st version 1.5 then the 1.51 but same, when I connect the USB cable I just see the “Connecting… Please wait.” message…
I have CMA and QCMA installed on my PC.
note: I have installed the VPK thru molecular shell and not from vitashell(I get errors)
It worked for me only when I enabled unsafe mode through molecular shell, give It a try!
Must enable unsafe mode through molecular shell
We need vita TV support
We definitely need vita tv support. Got a perfectly good usb port on it going to waste. Has to be some way to access it.
All we need now is the feature to dump/play 3.63 games
Superb! Thanks again.
I big vote for PS TV usb support. Please…..!
Some of us like the TV better than the Vita. Just saying.
I am wondering is there any possibility of the vita accessing a USB drive that would solve a lot of storage issues with ps vita memory cards being expensive to buy.
vita shell might be able to do this but, you would have to exit vita shell every time to play games.
i mean, the connection to the usb drive would be lost every time you exit out of vitashell
That’s not a problem since the kernel plugin for USB can be made to work in all of the system.
I wonder if you will eventually be able to use a usb to pc connection from the xmb in adrenaline just like an old psp.
why i turned on enable unsafe homebrew but it’s still doesn’t work?? when i press select it’s notice enable unsafe homebrew first (enabled)?? please help
Anyone best bet for accidentally updating to 3.63 is to get a 3.60 motherboard on eBay and have a Japanese game repair shop install it for you..
Now that we have full USB Access somebody needs to make a usb attachment allowing us to expand our memory with SD and MicroSD….. In other words somebody really needs to make this (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/12-09-11/47a.jpg) a Reality, now….
Hi guy

USB drive will be usefull just to store vpk files or roms and copy them from the drive to memory card when you wish to install something.

Anyone used this before?
On linux site USB is broken. This is error from Ubuntu 16.04:
Error mounting /dev/sdb at /media/user/2124-80F8: Command-line `mount -t “exfat” -o “uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,namecase=0,errors=remount-ro,umask=0077” “/dev/sdb” “/media/user/2124-80F8″‘ exited with non-zero exit status 1:
stdout: `FUSE exfat 1.2.3
‘
stderr: `ERROR: unsupported FAT count: 2.
‘
Could we’ve a progress bar while copying a file into Vita on a near future?
I have a 64Gb memory card and qcma that works perfect, but in vitashell at USB mode un windows explorer I can see card, but windows asking to format drive first. Vita working fine, qcma working fine… app and games works normal, just can´t see my storage in windows.
