{{#seo: |title=Vita Homebrew Apps (File Browsers) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=vitashell2.png |image_alt=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 Homebrew Competition (Best Homebrew). ==Features== * Launch homebrews (however, most of the homebrews cannot exit to VitaShell). * Read and write to pspemu (the folder starting with ms) and cache0. * Read vs0:data/external (the folder starting with sd), vs0:sys/external (the folder starting with sd), app0, music0, photo0 and sa0. * File browser with copy-paste, delete, rename, new folder. Press square to mark an entry. * RAR/7ZIP/ZIP support. * Text viewer. * Hex viewer (press square when you are in text viewer, press square again to switch back to text viewer). * Photo viewer (beta state). * Built-in FTP supporting all directories (press Select). ==User guide== ===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 Triangle in the home section. * Select <code>Mount uma0:</code> and attach your USB flash drive. You can now copy stuff from/to your USB stick. * Once <code>uma0:</code> is listed under the partitions, press Triangle again and choose <code>Mount USB ux0:</code>. 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 Triangle and choose <code>Refresh livearea</code>. This will not refresh PSP games. * If you wish to revert the patch, press Triangle and select <code>Umount USB ux0:</code>. * Note that this patch is only temporary and you need to redo the procedure everytime you launch your PS TV. ===Obtaining decrypted game assets from NoNpDRM rips=== *Use [[NoNpDrm_Vita|NoNpDRM]] to [[NoNpDrm_Vita#User_guide|create backups of your games]]. *Open VitaShell and update it to latest version possible. *Go to ux0:app/ (or ux0:patch/) folder, using D-Pad select the GAMEID directory of a chosen game you want to obtain assets from and press Triangle > Open decrypted. *Press Select to open FTP server (switch it under Start key if you have USB connection chosen). *Using FTP client on PC, connect to vita, then guide to ux0:app/GAMEID/ (or ux0:patch/GAMEID/). Make sure you open this folder and download all its contents to PC. *(Optional) After you are done downloading, check if files are indeed decrypted if hex of eboot.bin file, starts with SCE then you decrypted files correctly. === Customization === You can customize those files: {| class="wikitable" style="width: 800px;" !

Dialog and context image: If these files are not available, the colors <code>DIALOG_BG_COLOR</code> and <code>CONTEXT_MENU_COLOR</code> from <code>colors.txt</code> will be used instead. ===Multi-language=== Put your language file at <code>ux0:VitaShell/language/x.txt</code>, where the file must be UTF-8 encoded and <code>x</code> is one of the language listed below: {| style="margin-left:1em;" | * japanese * english_us * french * spanish * german * italian * dutch * portuguese * russian * korean |width="30px"|  | * 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.
