Great!! Thanks man!

1) I have another question, how can I buy the exploit game and stay in 3.36? I mean, if I go to the psn store to download the game the Vita will tell me to update my firmware, right?
2) 3.36.

There are many ways but the simplest in my opinion is buying the game through PSStore and downloading it to your PSV, all from a PC. Make sure the wifi on your Vita is on and reboot it, the download should start automatically.

The handheld needs to be signed into your PSN account though, you can use VitaUpdateBlocker (portable Windows version) to bypass the update.

No problem. Keep in mind that many online features such as adding funds or even downloading stuff may not work, you need to do it through a PC.

VitaUpdateBlocker is essentially just so you can sign into your account and let the download resume after starting it from your PSStore account on your PC, by clicking 'Download List > Download to your PSV'

Using THIS TUTORIAL I was able to log into the PSstore, buy a game and download it. I'm on 3.36 and I did this just a few hours ago

So I didn't realize "download new firmware automatically" defaulted to yes, and my Vita background-downloaded the 3.50 update. (I'm on 3.36 now.) It won't install without my approval, but it nags me whenever I start a game. Questions, if someone knows and has a minute:

(a) Is it possible to delete the update data?

(b) When Windows downloads updates, it installs them automatically on next reboot. Will the Vita do that if I can't get rid of the update?

(c) My Vita won't let me transfer anything from my PS3. I thought that was the standard workaround for getting stuff on your Vita with old firmware. Has Sony blocked that now, or is it because of that ^#@& update data?
