**Note**: If you are using multiple controllers the controller ports will be set in the order you connect (if available), so first connection -> port 1 second connection -> port 2 etc, simply powering off the controller (ie removing batteries) will not trigger a disconnect on vita.

X1vita is a plugin based on ds4vita that allows you to use an official Xbox One controller on the Vita or PSTV. The plugin was made by Ibrahim778 for the kyuhen homebrew contest and can be downloaded from GitHub.

For now, only official Xbox One controllers are supported and all others will be ignored.

Enabling the Plugin

  1. Add X1Vita.skprx to taiHEN's config (ux0:/tai/config.txt) or (ur0:/tai/config.txt):
*KERNEL
ux0:tai/X1Vita.skprx
  1. You need to refresh the config.txt by rebooting or through VitaShell.

Pairing a Controller

  1. Go to Settings -> Devices -> Bluetooth Devices.
  2. Press the pair on the controller for about 3-4 seconds, until the logo blinks very quickly.
  3. The controller will then connect and be paired.
    • You may get a message saying "Do you want to connect to (blank)" just press ok and ignore the error.

Usage

  1. Just press the xbox button and it will connect to the Vita
Exclamation-circle-fill.svgIf you are using multiple controllers the controller ports will be set in the order you connect (if available), so first connection is port 1 second connection is port 2 and so on. Simply powering off the controller (i.e. removing batteries) will not trigger a disconnect on the Vita. You need to hold the Xbox Button till it turns off.


{{Note|If you use Mai, don't put the plugin inside ux0:/plugins because Mai will load all stuff you put in there.}

This plugin is not compatible with the other DualShock plugins, but you can use ds3/4 on the PSTV or use minivitaTV.

FAQ

  • My controller connects but doesn't do anything!

There can several reasons but here are the most common:

  1. You're using a 3rd party controller.
  2. You're using an official controller other than the Xbox One (For e.g. Xbox One Elite, Elite 2).
  3. You're using the newer Xbox One controllers with the screenshot button (including the Series controllers) which are not supported, this is simply because the Vita's Bluetooth version does not support them so they simply cannot connect.
  4. You installed the plugin incorrectly. Install and open the companion to see if X1Vita is detected.
