How to install PSN Store blocked PSP Demos on your PSVita/PSTV with a CFW PS3
Posted: Tue Oct 25, 2016 3:19 am
This tutorial shows you how to install PSP Demos on your PSVita/PSTV which are not directly available through the PSN Store.
WARNING: First of all I must say that in order to do this we need to use idu-mode on your PSVita/PSTV. If you do every step as it follows you won't have a problem, though it's very risky. Don't do this if you're not sure about it. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
What is idu-mode?
This app allows you to convert retail Vita to DEMO MODE and DEMO MODE to retail. It will allow you to install pkg files through Package Installer. It has been reported that IDU mode auto-updates on boot so keep that in mind. Turn off your PSVita/PSTV Wifi or use Vita Update Blocker and you'll be fine, so read its tutorial very carefully.
Let's take Pixel Junk Monsters Deluxe Demo for example. It's only 12MB.
Thing you will need:
-PSVita/PSTV 3.60 HENkaku with idu-mode and Package Installer
-PS3 with CFW
-Vita Update Blocker
-FTP Client (FileZilla)
-QCMA
1-Access PSN Store with PS3 and download the PSP Demo
2-Transfer the pkg file from PS3 path "dev_hdd0/vsh/game_pkg/XXXXXXXX/" through FTP and put it on your "PSV Packages" QCMA folder
3-Transfer the rif file from PS3 path "dev_hdd0/home/XXXXXXXX/exdata/" through FTP
4-Turn off your PSVita/PSTV Wifi and/or run Vita Update Blocker (don't forget to set the vita update blocker proxy on your PSVita/PSTV Wifi Advanced Settings!)
5-Open idu-mode and press X to turn it on, power off, power on, press L+R+UP+START to exit DEMO mode and install the pkg file using Package Installer and QCMA
6-Open idu-mode again and press O to clear IDU mode, power off, power on
7-Transfer the rif file to "ux0/pspemu/PSP/LICENSE/" through FTP
8-The Demo is now ready to play
