modoru VS 0syscall6

Modoru 2.1 Vita firmware downgrader, required for 3.71/3.72/3.73 users (SKGleba)

I just use modoru... It's easy... Just follow tutorials on YouTube.. https://github.com/SKGleba/modoru/releases

Modoru v2.1

fw 3.60 is still the superior fw. Modoru will tell you the lowest fw the vita can go, even if it can't there's work around but, it's neither here nor there. If you're going to follow the guide and using vitaDeploy, it's fine, its the easiest and quick method., wish there was two options in vitaDeploy though, for each fw 3.60 and 3.65. But it is what it is.

Since the introduction of vitadeploy people seem to have forgotten modoru. https://github.com/SKGleba/modoru Use it to find out what's the lowest FW the Vita can be downgraded to simply by launching it. Bonus you can also use modoru to downgrade as well since it's what vitadeploy uses (in a smaller modified form). https://psvitamod.com/modoru-downgrade-the-ps-vita/ But it's a bit more involved. Otherwise stick with vitadeploy for ease of use. But it your cause it seems to be blocked perhaps?

-SKGleba has released 'Modoru 2.1' that will allow you to downgrade from 3.71/3.72/3.73.

You should be able to just use modoru to downgrade

I found a YouTube video and it says to download it if you are on version 3.73 https://github.com/SKGleba/modoru/releases

Here is link number 1 - Previous text "2.0"

Install and launch modoru v2 it will tell you the lowest fw your Vita can be downgraded to.

Don’t update. Go with https://github.com/SKGleba/0syscall6, and change spoof version in Settings > Henkaku Settings to 3.74

Instead of using this and later coming to this sub again asking for help after it breaks your Vita by you installing some unfortunate combination of plugins, learn how to install the plugins you need manually. For that, you just place the .skprx or .suprx file of the plugin you want into ur0:tai, and then make according changes to the config.txt file. For details, check out the description for each plugin in its GitHub page (for example, here under Usage for the 0syscall6 plugin).

Spoof does nothing about game FW requirements. 0syscall6 or reF00D do.

0syscall6 lv0 secure_kernel syscall6 patch - can replace reF00d (SKGleba)

There's no reason to but if you really want to install vita deploy and do it through that. But you might as well install a plugin so you can play games that require a higher firmware on a lower one. https://github.com/SKGleba/0syscall6
