Steps to reproduce

  1. buy a japanese psp
  2. run ark cfw
  3. ark cfw loads and replaces system settings info and games in iso form show up however the select menu is non-functional (the button is fine) and extras only contains 1seg comic reader and x-radar portable

im unsure about the select issue but would the different items in extras effect showing cfw settings?

I have a Japanese PSP-3000 in front of me right now with the newest version of ARK-4 Live running on a freshly installed 6.61 with no problems. Either the files on your memory stick are corrupted or you potentially have a bad shoulder button (would cause the VSH menu to not show up when pressing select, but shouldn't mess with the Extras icons). You should re-download ARK and copy the savedata to your memory stick again. If you still have the problem, try testing your buttons with Key[s]Tester: https://www.gamebrew.org/wiki/KeysTester_PSP

okay an update on this: for some reason the memory adapter i used was the culprit

i honestly dont know how but the comment of a corrupted memory stick helped me find this out
