[RELEASE] Vita Checker Installer (requires testkit vs0 mod)
Posted: Thu Jul 06, 2017 7:49 pm
If you're familiar with PS3 hacking you might have come across the "Check" option under the game options menu in the XMB. It allows you to diagnose any issues regarding your eboot and file structure, and to point out what files you are missing, all before submitting your app to SCE.
This little installer basically enables the Vita version of that, installing a decrypted, fixed-up version of the checker eboot to ux0 and modifying app.db to redirect to that eboot instead. Normally by default, even with all the testkit vs0 files copied to your Vita, it cannot boot up (just shows a C1-6703-6 error). Scouting round the internet, it appears to be unknown why in the world it does this, but... it just does.
However a decrypted version of the eboot ran from ux0 and some app.db magic just seemed to make it suddenly work! So I decided to make life easier by writing a one-click installer that processes all of that automatically, ready to be instantly used after you've exited the app (assuming you installed the testkit mod beforehand, of course)
This will probably be highly pointless to most, but very interesting perhaps to devlopers and people who like to collect and run devkit-related stuff like myself

Enjoy having a brief play around with it, I guess.
