Steps to reproduce

After making a clean ARK-4 install in my PS Vita via the FasterARK method and running VitaShell (installed by VitaDeploy's App downloader), I have the C2-12828-1 error. After clicking "OK", the PS Vita freezes with a black screen. If I access Safe Mode to restart it or rebuild its database, the PS Vita has spinning white dots until they freeze. I have no other choice but to restore it from Safe Menu and to reinstall all my games and homebrew. I also have this issue on the PS TV.

I just jailbroke the PS Vita with the HENlo exploit, downgraded to 3.60, chose the "HEN only" taiHEN configuration and checked the "Install enso" setting in VitaDeploy, installed VitaShell using the latter and installed AutoPlugin II and its NoPspEmuDrm plugin before installing FasterARK and ARK-4 and running VitaShell. I've done multiple PS Vita restores using the Safe Mode and I always have this problem after following these steps.

Here's my PS Vita's plugin configuration before installing FasterARK:

This file is used as an alternative if ux0:tai/config.txt is not found. For users plugins, you must refresh taiHEN from HENkaku Settings for changes to take place. For kernel plugins, you must reboot for changes to take place.

It takes a while for servers to update. Try again.

Is a plugin like npdrm_free/npdrm_free_mod needed to read PSP EBOOT.PBP games and DLC in PS Vita's ARK-4, and if so, what about nploader/nploader_mod? Is it also needed?

What does "Inferno cache" do and specifically its "LRU" setting? Can it break PSP games?
