VitaShell

VitaShell is an alternative replacement of the PS Vita's LiveArea. It offers you a file manager, package installer, built-in FTP and much more. This homebrew was an entry of the Revitalize PS Vita homebrew competition and won the first prize. HENkaku's molecularShell is also based on VitaShell.

How to use an USB flash drive as Memory Card on a PS TV

  • Format your USB flash drive as exFAT or FAT32.
  • Launch VitaShell and press in the home section.
  • Select Mount uma0: and attach your USB flash drive. You can now copy stuff from/to your USB stick.
  • Once uma0: is listed under the partitions, press again and choose Mount USB ux0:. This will copy important apps like VitaShell, molecularShell, and other files.
  • Your USB flash drive is now acting as a Memory Card.
  • To sync all your apps on your USB flash drive, press and choose Refresh livearea. This will NOT refresh PSP games.
  • If you wish to revert the patch, press and select Umount USB ux0:.
  • Note that this patch is only temporary and you need to redo the procedure everytime you launch your PS TV.

Theme setting: VitaShell will load the theme that is set in ux0:VitaShell/theme/theme.txt (THEME_NAME = "YOUR_THEME_NAME")

General info: You don't need to have all these files in your custom theme, if one of them is missing, the default image file will be loaded instead.

Dialog and context image: If these files are not available, the colors DIALOG_BG_COLOR and CONTEXT_MENU_COLOR from colors.txt will be used instead.

Multi-language

Put your language file at ux0:VitaShell/language/x.txt, where the file must be UTF-8 encoded and x is one of the language listed below:

  • japanese
  • english_us
  • french
  • spanish
  • german
  • italian
  • dutch
  • portuguese
  • russian
  • korean
  • chinese_t
  • chinese_s
  • finnish
  • swedish
  • danish
  • norwegian
  • polish
  • portuguese_br
  • turkish

VitaShell does automatically load the language that matches to the current system language. If your system language is for example french, it will load from ux0:VitaShell/language/french.txt.

Languages files are available in the l10n folder of this repository.
