CEX2DEX is a PS Vita application to convert between CEX (Retail) and DEX (TestKit) permanently.

Note: Please use with caution.

Installation

Important notes:

  • If you are using a spoofing plugin (e.g. PS TV spoofer, ConsoleId spoofer), make sure you disable the plugin before using.
  • Currently, this only works on FW 3.60. But once your device has been converted to DEX, you can move from a FW to another.
  • If CEX2DEX is restarted many times on the loading kernel helper message, the required plugins are not installed.
  • Please note that the installation of DEX ConsoleID will permanently change the device, even though the opposite is doable with CEX2DEX (see uninstallation).
  • Keep in mind that CEX2DEX has been thoroughly tested but can cause unrecoverable damage to your device (brick) in rare cases.

To install:

  • Install CmepMgr (required).
  • Install reF00D v1.1 or higher version (required).
  • Install CEX2DEX vpk (required).
  • Install DEX (TestKit) ConsoleID from the CEX2DEX menu.
  • If you want to install DEX (TestKit) PUP, copy DEX PUP to ux0:data/PSP2/UPDATE/PSP2UPDAT.PUP and install it from safemode.

Uninstallation:

  • If you have DEX (TestKit) PUP installed, select "launch temporary CEX spoof" from the CEX2DEX menu and exit the application manually if successful (0x0) else reboot the device and try again.
  • Also install CEX (Retail) PUP from modoru with holding L on launch time (if successful, it should reboot the device automatically).
  • Select "uninstall DEX ConsoleID" from the CEX2DEX menu to revert to the original ConsoleID.

Compatibility

Currently, CEX2DEX application only works on FW 3.60.

Changelog

v1.1

  • Add PS TV support.

v1.0

  • Initial release.
  • Warning: Do not install this version CEX2DEX to PS TV. It will trigger a brick.
