Hey everyone,

I haven't been able to use my psp for so long now :( due to someone breaking it.... :!: #-o :evil:

The console is fine other than this one small problem....

Also here is a close up of the screen...
Prepare yourself.... :cry: ......

Yeah its sad...And real depressing for me to see...and even more because i own it...

Should i make the effort and fix it? or just sell it?? :/

Well replacing the screen is simple enough, it all really depends on if its a hacked PSP or not, i think it cost me about £35 for a new screen the last time i broke my screen, you'll be able to find video guides on youtube for replacing the screen so its up to you really, i would personally repair it as you'll pay less repairing than buying a new one.

Nope, I don't think so... But, you can just use official firmware. We can sign homebrew to run on any firmware. :)

Sweet!

!!NEWSFLASH!!

I just recieved my new psp screen today!! and WOW! it even came with a set of screwdriver set to go with it :D!!!

I will do my best on getting my psp fixed today :D


FAIL EIDT: - lol

I got this psp console from ebgames second hand and they must of already opened it up before coz 2 of the screws are way messed up... I honestly cannot continue on from these screws... :cry: :cry:

SUPRISE EDIT!!!!!! - :D!!

After playing around i ended up ripping the faceplate off and got to the screen and replaced it. Then i put it back together and turned on the psp and the screen worked but the colors were messed up... so i opened the console back up again and re-tried it again.. after a few attempts i finaly got it! :D! #-o

Now the screen is fixed and the psp still runs perfect.. although from not using the console for a long time the analog stick is being dodgy.. it keeps going to the top left..

Could someone please help with some tips on how to fix the analog stick? :mrgreen:

Thanks,

SilentShadow69

Dude!! That's awesome! If you have CFW, you can use a program, otherwise, you can buy a cheap one off eBay. They are only a dollar or two and work great.
