UPDATED: OpenCMA r4 Released - Fixed for 1.80

As you might know the latest PS Vita System Software update(1.80) required you to update Content Manager Assistant effectively blocking OpenCMA r3, a patch to transfer files without an internet connection. A couple of days ago, just in time for the upcoming VHBL release, a group of developers over at Wololo.net fixed the latest version for 1.80...

From jd8531 at Wololo.net:

A new version of the Open CMA for Vita 1.80 has been made to easily fix the errors alot of people have been receiving. (This also fixes the music/video bug!)

You can download the newest version here or alternatively if you already have the other one installed you can replace the psp2-update.xml file with the correct one corresponding to your appropriate region at the bottomhere

Tutorial for the new version:

- Extract the archive in your CMA folder (program files/Sony/Content Manager Assistant by default)

- Quit the CMA if it is running on your PC

- Execute “run.bat” (you need to run it in “Admin mode” on windows 7

- That’s it, now the CMA should run without requiring to be connected to the internet

Sorry mac users this is so far windows only and something is in the works. You can find the /talkforums thread here, and enjoy a youtube video showing it working below:

Other files related to VHBL, etc… still need to be tested but this is still good news for everyone who uses open CMA regularly. If you are having errors you can try replacing the psp2-updatelist.xml with these specific ones or the second set of steps in the Tutorial:

• Japan: psp2-updatelist.xml.
• US version :http://fus01.psp2.update.playstation...updatelist.xml
• EU: psp2-updatelist.xml

I've installed and used this myself and it works great, and now all bugs have been fixed.

DO NOT close CMA on your computer while it is running on the Vita or you will have to install everything again.

Download: openCMA r4

Thanks Tranced for the update
