Troubleshooting PS Vita Homebrew Browser

[Music] what's up guys Peck James here in my last upload I talked about the PS Vita homebrew browser and quite a few of you guys said you get stuck on a back screen or it just doesn't load or it crashes it freezes and sometimes when you tap on an app to try and install it and the whole homebrew browser will stop working and it will actually from an error on your screen now this should be fairly easy to fix so in this video I'm gonna guide you on how to fix it and just like I said this is what the back screen looks like obviously so if you're stuck on a black screen you should be seeing something like this and but basically what we're gonna do to start off with and let's just say that you've got it installed normally I would recommend just holding it and actually deleting it now the reason why I'd suggest deleting it is because you will want to reinstall it but we also want to make sure the data folder is deleted sometimes the data folder might be outdated and it can actually cause problems so let's just start our V shell and we're gonna go into our UXO and we're basically gonna look for the data folder so we're gonna go you x00 whatever you want to call it we're gonna find the data folder which is actually at the top and I just want to past it and now what we need to do is find the folder and for this app and it's actually called the Vita HB browser so we're gonna push triangle Ness when I'm going to delete it we're gonna press X on yes we're just gonna wait for it to delete there's also another folder that you can delete I don't have it because it's part of like a previous version but it's called via homebrew wiki or something like that via homebrew browser wiki basically any Vita homebrew browser folder that you find in here or if it's called HB browser you can probably just delete it and especially if it's old you know from like 2018-2019 if it's one of the old homebrew browser folders I'd say just remove it because we're moving it and reinstalling it could actually just fix the application for you okay so once it's finished installing we need to get a latest version or if you're still having problems we need to get a fixed version so what we can do is actually connect up here's feature to a computer so we're gonna press select if you want to connect it via USB that's fine you want to connect it via your FTP connection that is also fine let's go and connect it and let's get the latest VPK or a fixed vbk alright guys so over on your computer I'm going to link the fixed version in the description just over on GBA temp you can see that this one right here is the Vita homebrew browser black screen glitch and if you guys scroll down there is actually a guy that linked it on mega so discard the Yoshi profile picture if you click on this it will actually bring you to his mega and apparently this version fixes a lot of issues so if you're getting the black screen if you're getting glitches errors why I'd recommend is just downloading this version and installing this one now I don't know if this is an older version it might be and but it should work okay now of course we've also got the latest version and which is this one right here so this one is released six days ago version 0.92 and if you're having problems you can also try and be install this this does fix some crashes and but yeah this version right here it's supposed to fix most of this stuff right so once you've got a vbk of your choice we're going to go on to UXO and we're basically going to reinstall it so here is mine now this one is not a fixed version for me I just got the latest version which is 0.92 that should be okay I don't think I'm gonna have any problems well I guess we can see maybe I just cursed I'll jinx myself probably dead so let's just wait for this to install and then we can open it and hopefully it boots now I'm gonna test everything just to check if I get errors because there's free there a known errors so let's just go and let's just open it there you go so the first error that you might encounter is the black screen error and after this screen sometimes it goes black or it can freeze so as you can see it's gonna go black and oh maybe we did actually get an error this time now if you're stuck on a black screen just like this what you actually want to do is just wait I'm gonna give it two minutes and if it doesn't load enough to two minutes I can confirm that I've basically run into the error okay so it did actually load in but I think that was more than two minutes there might have been three minutes so if you just wait it might actually load in after a few minutes so if you do get stuck on a black screen don't worry too much and but can we like open stuff without a crash yeah we can so I'm not too sure why it took such a long time to load and maybe we can just try again but yeah there is a fixed version so if you're having like massive issues with it as I said like when I was on my computer maybe just try to fix diversion but it seems to be okay maybe the second time that we open it there you go so it's loading a bit better so make sure you wait and if you're still having issues and you can get a fixed version now another issue is I'm you're just froze on this screen and you can't do anything and the other issue is when you tap on stuff and the app will just crash and instantly but it does actually let me tap on stuff so obviously I didn't have that issue but there you go that's pretty much how you fix all issues with the Vita homebrew browser it's a pretty nice app is just got a few bugs of it if you guys enjoyed this video make sure to LIKE and subscribe and I will see you guys in the next one [Music] [Music]
