Okay,
So, I have this VITA fat which came with 3.x0 I think,
it has a weird issue that when I try to do a system restore - it just reboots to black and won't turn on again until I undo unplug the battery and back.
(both triggers to restore via recovery and settings does the same)
I mean it works as it is on the menu, settings etc (didn't try a game though),
Tried to rebuild the database too, and format the memory card - it does the same thing (had to undo the battery to make it work)
anyway, I thought this would be fixed by a software update (3.60)
so this is what I did.
1. Set the Henkaku DNS and I was prompted with the 3.60 !@#! Update found (qcma and the vita doesn't seem to talk at that time)
2. Fired the update, it started downloading,
3. I press next next after the EULA / AGREE thing
4. it black screens before even getting to the progress bar,
I couldn't get into the menu anymore.
the recovery sadly no longer works, (PS + R + PWR)
I removed the battery to hope that it boots again, and to no avail - I know that vita was fcked,
so I let it rest for a month I had some free time today so I picked it back up tried some new stuff.
I did the HOLD the Power button for 30 secs trick and I was welcomed with the SAFEMODE
1. Restart this system
2. rebuild database
3. format memory card
4. restore this system
are all disabled
except for
5. Update system software
which is the only option available
so I proceeded and used QCMA - the 3.60 update shows up, it Loads the file,
after the Eula I hit finish/next and the vita's screen turns black and that was that. I could hear the USB / vita being unplugged due to the windows usb eject chime.
after this, nothing else happens, the blue ps logo just stays and nothing more.
I retried this for like 2 more times and I knew it would still be the same.
What do you guys think I should try next to fix this?
try the update via game card? I tried but all I have is cod declass and tearaways, the vita asks for a 3.35 or greater update from the Cart.
Any inputs will be greatly appreciated!
