Yifan Lu suggestion about PSM, what about who's on FW 3.18 ?

[quetz]

Here i am, just want to clarify the situation about what steps to do in order to obtain the required by Yfan Lu suggestion.

I'm a PS Vita owner on FW 3.18, with the two exploit of GB & SS2.

Well happened that i already had the PS suite Dev and some game demo downloaded an backed up on my pc.




Copied again to the console, shows a little problem for running the two. The PS Suite Dev and the Runtime Package are out of date.

Problem is that i don't have (anymore, i suppose after re-setting the console once) the appropriate runtime to run the Game Demos i stored. I'm actually on Runtime 1.0, the far you can get without updating the console FW.

Yes because happened that the PSN let's you download the basic runtime package (1.0), but not the updates, and so the applications still can't run. We don't know what package should've installed in order to make this useful in the future...



Only solution to run the PSM Game appears to be updating the FW.

Re-assuming what he stated:

What you should do before June 2015:

Sign in to the PSM DevPortal with your PSN account
Click the button to “Apply for PSM Publisher License” and follow the directions
After you get approved, download SDK 1.21.02 (NOT SDK 2.00.00 or Unity for PSM)
Follow the directions to get the dev assistant for your Vita
Once everything is installed, play with a demo! For example, BallMazeDemo is pretty fun. Before the demo will run though, you have to generate an app key. Refer to PSM’s documentations for that.

Looks important to the cause to RUN ONCE AT LEAST a application. Well, i'm now wondering, it's worth enough for us 3.18 owners to update for it? I look forward for yours opinions, i hope this helped to summarize this problem that i suppose afflicts many's in this forum. Still, i hope there's a workaround for that.

I think you may be able to install 1.14 PSM update package with package installer. PM me if you know how to use package installer and wish to try.

I am on 3.36 and want to install the upgrade since I am not able also :/

You won't be able to install the app via the package installer on 3.36 as of right now.

I'm also on 3.36 on my Vita and Vita TV. Is it really worth it for me to update to 3.50 so that I can install the latest version of PSM? I heard about there being a newly discovered WebKit exploit for 3.36 that was patched in 3.50, so I am really scared to risk losing this glimmer of hope.

However, I trust Yifan. If you absolutely recommend installing updating to 3.50 and installing PSM, I will do it. I just want some clarification (and reassurance ) before I make the one-way jump. Thanks!

for those of us with two vitas using the same account, is it possible to update one, download the devsuite, then back up in cma/ocma and then transfer it over to the 3.18 vita? thanks.

Does it have to be the PSM Runtime 1.14? It allows me to update to PSM Runtime to 2.01. Should I update?

I had a backup of "Playstation Development Assistant" from my 3.18 firmware.

Runtime does not matter. I don't know why people care about it (I did not mention anything about the runtime). As long as you can run the demo, that's all that matters.

Thx yifanlu,

I asked becuz when I goto the Settings-Playstation Mobile, the Playstation Runtime was blank. Anyway, I chose to update and after that it show "1.0". I had backup of "Dev Assistant" on Computer.

So on my Vita with 3.36 firmware, updating PSM Runtine and "Dev Assistant" was ok. And I am able to deploy the Maze Demo to it.

Now. On my Vita 3.18. Both "PSM Runtime" and "Dev Assistant" required me to update my firmware .

At least one of my Vita work so I'm happy.

Wonder if there a PKG for "Dev Assistant" that can be installed through PKG Installer.

Seems that yifanlu is gonna be the deciding factor for a bunch of us on the questions of updates. I'm stuck on 3.36 myself without the devapp. So I'm wondering. To update or not, the possible loss of my psp games on a higher res screen without ruining my umds. Or at least their bubbles.
