  • Rebuild Reader database. Use this option only if you have problems with Reader (Removed from Light version for now).

Installation

Install the E-Book Reader:

  • This requires you to have QCMA installed on your PC and Package Installer on your PS Vita.
  • Alternatively you may log into a Japanese PSN account to get it from PSN. It’s also possible to use other software, that’s not exactly legal, to get the E-Book Reader on your PSVita
  • After installing the Reader app, you'll need to update it by pressing the Update Button on its LiveArea bubble.
  • To get the update button, you may need to open the application at least once.

If you had previously installed/used the application:

  • Make copy of your books library (ux0:book/u/).
  • Uninstall it and remove any files bearing its title ID (PCSC80012) from ux0:/user and its sub directories
  • Delete Reader Settings app if you already have it.
  • Delete ReaderSettings.suprx and ReaderMod.suprx plugins if you have them.

Install the patch:

  • Copy all required folders to ux0:.
  • Place henkaku_sfc.suprx to ur0:tai/ and install it under *NPXS10015 in ur0:tai/config.txt
 *NPXS10015
 ur0:tai/henkaku_sfc.suprx
  • Place ReadmerMod.suprx to ur0:tai/ and install it under *PCSC80012 in ur0:tai/config.txt
 *PCSC80012
 ur0:tai/ReadmerMod.suprx

Reboot your PlayStation Vita and open the Reader application again.

Notes:

  • On 3.60 you will have to use 0syscall6 plugin instead of ref00d for this method to work.
  • The new plugin will replace Henkaku Settings tab in settings app with new User Settings tab. In it you will find Henkaku Settings and a couple of additional options, including Reader Settings.
  • You can use the included Vita Book Edit (PC library manager app) to own books to the PlayStation Vita.
