[2.0, 2.1, 3.0]|3.68 h-encore][PSTV][USB stick or HDD] USB mass still not detected. Aborting USB mass detection.

[Duckyz95]

The recent update fixed the original issue of saying device not supported however StorageMgr isn't detecting my USB while it is plugged it, if I plug it in while H-Encore app is exiting then it will detect and mount it. Log

[BeemerDream]

I have the same issue, with this in the log: "Error mounting bootfs: 80024302" My config file is only UMA=ux0. I have a Sony memorycard and a 500gb hdd. It worked with enso 3.65 with usbmc installer, even suspend/wake up.

@Duckyz is it a USB hard drive or USB stick ?

[Duckyz95]

It's a USB stick

[CelesteBlue-dev]

Please test : https://github.com/CelesteBlue-dev/PSVita-StorageMgr/releases/tag/v2.1b1

[BeemerDream]

Thank you, i'll give it a try right away.

[Duckyz95]

Unfortunately this didn't fix it for me

[BeemerDream]

Same result here, but it works when i'm turning on the hdd when h-encore exits in v. 2.0, not in 2.1 beta.

[CelesteBlue-dev]

Please test : https://github.com/CelesteBlue-dev/PSVita-StorageMgr/releases/tag/v2.1

[BeemerDream]

Sorry, i still get "Error mounting bootfs:80024302". Thank you anyway.

[CelesteBlue-dev]

@BeemerDream thie bootfs error is not important. Please send full logs.

[BeemerDream]

Sorry, i still get "Error mounting bootfs:80024302". Thank you anyway.

[Duckyz95]

Hasn't fixed it for me either. Pretty sure the log is the same as the original, if not then here's the log

[BeemerDream]

I've got the exact same log as Duckys. Except for the moduleid:000928A1.

[CelesteBlue-dev]

@BeemerDream you are on 3.68 ? does the USB stick mount using VitaShell -> mount uma0 ?

[BeemerDream]

Yes i am and yes it does.

[MegaPramuk]

I also have the same problem, though it's a USB hard drive instead of a USB pen drive. Here's the last log it made, in case it might be needed. The hard drive can be mounted via VitaShell, though.

[CelesteBlue-dev]

@Duckyz @BeemerDream @MegaPramuk @GabyPCgeeK please test v3.0

[Duckyz95]

Same problem occurs, doesn't detect the USB when already plugged in. Log

[BeemerDream]

It doesn't work for me either. Same problem as before.

[ghost]

Any updates to this issue? Thought i was going crazy or my USB was broken

[CelesteBlue-dev]

Please test usbmc by yifanlu.

[Duckyz95]

By the looks of the issues on usbmc, it might have a similar problem as nobody has gotten that to work either.

[BeemerDream]

It worked for me with usbmc installer at 3.65 enso.

[ghost]

I'm on 3.68 and usbmc application tells me to install enso in order to use it

Same problem for me on 3.68 h-encore. Using a run-of-the-mill SanDisk Cruzer 128GB USB 2.0 thumb drive. Tried with and without a Sony memory card in the PSTV. As others have noted, plugging in the thumb drive while h-encore is exiting is a workaround that works. Followed the steps at https://vita.hacks.guide/storagemgr twice to verify that it wasn't a problem on my end.

My storage_config.txt (for non-Sony-memory-card attempt):

INT=imc0
UMA=ux0

Using latest release v3.0

I have the same issue on PSTV on 3.68 and H-Encore. Using a 64 GB Sandisk USB stick. Stick won‘t get recognized until I open VitaShell and replug the USB stick...

[FirionHope]

Also having the same issue on PSTV 3.68 H encore, 32gb sandisk stick. Would be nice to have a warning on the main page, I just spent hours trying to troubleshoot it not realizing it was a known issue.

[TRWOV]

Also having the "USB mass still not detected. Aborting USB mass detection". I'm using an external 3.5" HDD with its own power source formatted as exFAT.

I can mount UMA0 in Vitashell and mount it to ux0 manually. Can refresh Livearea, run games and such once done so.

For the time being I'm just leaving the PSTV on standby to avoid the manual mounting. After turning on from standby USB is still mounted as ux0.

[craigerskine]

Same. I'm on PSTV 3.68 h-encore as well. I'd prefer to use HDD but having to unplug USB, start VitaShell, plug in USB, mount USB, mount USB as UX0 every time I reboot or shut down is annoying.

For now I'm using a 128GB microSD with SD2Vita, but I'm almost out of space. A portable 1TB SSD is cheaper than a 256GB microSD, so yeah, I'd prefer a HDD if it were more convenient.

Same Issue.s+ PSTV 3.68 h-encore. v3.0 StorageMgr.

I wish to mount Usb MAss storage (a 256 GB sandisk ultrafit) as ux0 AND sd2vita GameCarD (128 GB SD card) as uma0.

Using the following storage_config.txt

MCD=xmc0 INT=imc0 UMA=ux0 GCD=uma0

Following the instruction in the Readme.md to the letter:

"Usage. NOTE: for using USB mass on h-encore, you have to boot PSTV, plug out USB mass, plug in USB mass then launch h-encore.

NOTE: For mounting a device as ux0:, this device must have already been mounted as ux0: using VitaShell at least once to have necessary files on it."

Here is what i find:

From cold boot with Usb MAs storage attatched and sd2vita Game CarD insterted.

I remove Usb MAs storage as per above instruction, re-insert then run h-encore. VitaShell shows the Usb MAss storage has failed to mount as ux0: VitaShell shows PSTV INTernal 1.05 GB as ux0 still. However, the sd2viota Game CarD has mounted as uma0.

Also receiving the "USB mass still not detected. Aborting USB mass detection" log.

If at this point I attempt to mount USB as ux0 in vita shell, then uma0 un-mounts and the option to mount it is no longer available.

As people have tried so above, I can also confirm that removing the Usb MAss storage before running h-encore, then reinserting as h-encore is exiting is a sucessfull workaround. BOTH cards will mount as i require. Interestingly though, if i choose to un-mount uma0 in VitaShell, when both are mounted, then i cannot re-mount it, i.e. no option to do so, untill I un-mount the USB Card.
