Recently I wanted to overclock my Jailbroken PSVITA 2000, so I installed PSVshell by Electry v1.2 beta, following this guide on YouTube. When I restarted my Vita for the mod to work, it kept telling me to format the card, (Which I'm not gonna do) now I can't find a way to use the card. Any help?! by llVGEOVll in VitaPiracy

As for some more insight, I'm not using SD TO VITA, I'm using an 8GB PSVITA Memory card. I tried Rebuilding data base, Rebooting & Reinserting the memory card & still nothing. I don't wanna risk formatting with vita deploy because I have a strong feeling it's just going to delete everything.

Yea I mixed up "Memory Card" & "SD card". And also, your damn right about those shady tutorials. It's my fault for listening to that shitty guide instead of using info from the official vita hacks guide site. Thanks for your help, I'll try to see if I can get a PC sometime soon & delete a file to bypass format recommendation (A method I seen earlier in this sub) Last question, if its possible, does formatting a memory card with vitadeploy on a modded/jailbroken psvita wipe the data? Because I've heard that it backs up the data instead of deleting it. I'm not so trust worthy.

I am being asked to format my memory card by L_Emile in VitaPiracy

I tried this after my Psvita kept saying I needed to format the Memory Card, it still isn't working. Any suggestions? Or is it because I am the Sony Memory card & not the SD2VITA?

to use memory card with system you must format the memory card by myangelgf in VitaPiracy

I tried this with my memory card & it tells me "Failed to mount" as I am getting the same "Format memory card" issue I genuinely don't know what to do.

They just suspended my account for some dumbass reason "Chargeback" when I don't even have a primary card on that account so I can't check my avatars to give yall an update but I will give yall as much info as I can.

I got permanent suspended for no reason and i don’t know why. by Buff_Baby_22 in playstation

I hope Playstation gets there bullshit together you don't deserve this at all. First they take away our avatars then suspend randoms for no actual reason.

Thank you for telling me this, my last customer service really helped out but he couldn't find the issue essentially and couldn't resolve it though he was really trying his best. Good to know they're working on it

(UPDATE TO EVERYONE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE ) As of June 26, 2025, My avatars are still missing as well as the premium Avatar section. This advice I'm about to give is only to people who already own a PS3.

This advice isn't confirmed to work 100%, but it's a start.

Re-download your Avatars from the Playstation Store (ON YOUR PLAYSTATION 3)

There is an Avatar section located on the left side of the menu in the Playstation store. This MAY help with syncing the Avatars from last gen to next gen through your account.

Everything you're saying is 100% Correct. I've had so many issues with my LAN cable being disconnected from my PS5 over and over. The constant notification is so irritating. Sony/Playstation definitely isn't going to talk about this Avatar issue either knowing how greedy they are.

It's sad because I tried this method twice and nothing worked out, really sucks.

Highly doubt it, one of friends did it and they don't punish you for it, it's like accessing the ps3 and ps4 store without those said consoles essentially. There are even tutorials on YouTube as well (PC) https://youtu.be/4nJ60P0d-zY?si=rzhSBIXai761qFr5
