After that i opened it up. I fixed the analog stick (where i found out what the problem really was) and i opened up the screen layers to clean up the oil stain on the screen for the most part. But the oil i put it weted a component that connects the left shift and the up and left buttons to the PSP. There was nothing i could do about that. What happened is that because the connecting "wire" (its a copper connection really and not a physical wire) beeing weted, and i believe it was already in very bad shape, the left shift, up and left buttons would temporarely get locked even though i stopped pressing them for a while. This made action/driving games unplayable. I only kept RPG's for it and got a Vita instead. Recently with some fan translations coming out and the discovery of a certain Cfw utility, i just decided to trade in some games and finally get a new one so i can play whatever i want. I got a 3000 model this time, used aswell. But this time it was in great condition and even brought a case and a 4GB memory card for free. The power source seems bonkers though, so its a good one i have the one from the PSP 2000, wich works perfectly. It was quite the learning journey, but now i got a pretty PSP 3000 (its black, the 2000 was silver). I dont think the software would solve the problem i had with the PSP2000, as it was a hardware problem. |
Ah okie, I just had my original psp go absolutely crazy with the controls after a crash in the GBA emulator for it while the emulator apparently was after taking complete control of the buttons of the psp down to the bios lvl, but Keycleaner fixed that for me.
If you were really good at carefully removing parts from inside the psp you know there are replacement bits and pieces for them on ebay pretty cheap and some even work!
but.... I tried to replace the bar at the end of a mates psp 1000 before, the one with Home, volume buttons and the start and select. Yeah... got it on ebay for about 2euros, spent about 10 hours total trying to carefully as possibly replace it, got it lined up, stuck it in perfectly, was so careful with it, then when closing it after all that work I caught a piece of wireing badly and when I went to reopen it I broke a part of the main PCB in 2.... Was so depressing, it's still actually downstairs just left as it was when it broke, didn't have the heart to Bin it even after that amount of time wasted.
