memcardswap is a simple homebrew to aid in memory card swapping without using FTP or other manual methods.

User guide

How does it work

It deletes ux0:/id.dat from the Memory Stick and replaces it with an empty one.

This tricks the PS Vita into believing the memory card is new and therefore does not need to be formatted.

Next time the card is inserted in a Vita, id.dat will be re-generated for the current account, without formatting anything.

How to run

Simply run the app, it'll quickly exit. Then power off your Vita and swap cards with another Vita or PSTV.

Screenshots

Changelog

v1.2

Added crappy text menu.
Added a new option to make id.dat read only (and another to restore write access).
Now you can swap your memory card from 3.60 to 3.61+ and back without formatting because the SVR field (system version) in doesn't get updated.

v1.1

Added icon0 via Nallwolf Thanks.

v1.0

First Release.
