PS Vita: General Discussion

[waxonandreluis]

@QuietlyWrong Mine would just freeze, over and over and over every time I reboot, and yes de digisender could be a reason for that as in fact my vita crashed more times at home, then the outside, but the place where I was, there were no digisenders, and if you see other posts you can see that their vita crashes at work where no wifi is available, don't know if they have digisenders. I already did the tests and the digisender was defenitly causing problems on some devices, like my tablet where the signal would decrease a lot !

[QuietlyWrong]

I played a few races of ModNation Racers on the Tube today - must have been playing for maybe 15-20 minutes. I deliberately left Wi-Fi and vodafone switched on, even though they couldn't connect to anything.

I'm not experiencing any issues so far. When I do something that tries to connect, I get a standard error saying it can't connect and lets me OK back to the game.

Will keep testing though.

Apart from the AV digisender thing, which seems well documented, maybe it is a hardware failure of some sort? Of course, as you can tell, I've got a 3G model. Is yours just wi-fi only?

[waxonandreluis]

Yes mine is a Wi-Fi only, but I think the issue is still present on the 3g models. Also mine would just freeze in the settings while connecting to wi fi and when it couldn't connect if you turned off the Wi-Fi it would just freeze

[DrProng]

Mine is wifi only as well. I would imagine there would be less chance of issues with the 3G model as it can always drop back to the 3G connection if the wifi is unavailable. My issue appears to be only when the digisender is active, that will prompt a hang within a minute or so. When I'm out and about on the train or in the office I have had no hangs whatsoever.

Can I ask, what is a digisender?

Transmits audoio/video signal around the house using the same radio range as Wifi but with a non-wifi protocol, which may exaplin why some people's Vita's die when in range of these devices. Digisenders, like Wifi, don't care about walls - so you may have problems if your neighbour is using one for example.

Ah ok.

Is there likely to be one of these in my workplace? (a gamestation btw)

Could explain the freeze ups when im trying to play there.

Ok everyone there is a update available for the psvita, 1.65 OFW I don't think it has reached Europe yet. But when comes out. Can anyone test if it fixes anything

[waxonandreluis]

Bump, anyone tested this after the update ?

[tony1979]

Not yet, but I intend to test after the Easter break.
