I have an extra PSP 2000 motherboard that have bits of corrosion around fuses and soldered connections of other components. How will I be able to clean or neutralize these corroded regions and is it safe to actually wash the motherboard like PC motherboards?
Is it still possible to connect the psp to the wifi? I tried and It says my router is not supported. Any help is appreciated!
I can't load the web on my psp and it said handshake error
This just appeard ın my mind as a question, bc the 3000s motherboard is smaller I think l can fit some things like type z, bluetooth, a mic maybe and it can even be a second joystick.
If you connect a ps3 controller to a PSP GO, you can make that controller act as the second player in the controller settings. Bit weird as one person is holding the screen.... but use the component out cable Hook it up to a TV and its a mini portable ps1.
Is it worth it to to upgrade my PSP 2006 to PSP 3006 ?. People say 3000 series have brighter screen but have scan lines. What do you guys think?
So I have a psp 1000 had it for 10+ years now since I was a kid. My dad modded it and put some games on a sd card, now I wanna learn how to do a little bit of that. I have zero experience.
I have a really nice windows computer pretty new. Seems adequate to do any of this.
I need help. I’m just not getting it. I have a usb cord and a SD CARD. I’ve watched several videos but still have no clue how to start.
Another game that I ended up installing and really enjoying this Saturday even is "Wild Arms XF" (PSP).
It's a turn-based RPG, released in 2008, set in a wild west inspired world where you control up to six characters in battle. Gameplay is very similar to games like Jeanne D'Arc and Final Fantasy Tactics but what I think makes this game different is the combat system. It introduces something called Vitality Points (VP) that you exhaust through your battles and if the battle goes on for too long you start losing health from your exhaustion. It also has a system where if you surround an enemy from multiple sides you do increased damage.
All together it's a beautiful turn-based RPG with some wild west flair thrown in - and with a spectacular set of music tracks in it.
Here's a video review of the game that also shows off some of the gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYnCTOnbp7E
The first image below is the game running on on Trimui SP (and it runs - and sounds - great!):
I was lazily browsing around for games to play this weekend and came across one that almost immediately grabbed my interest.
"SteamBot Chronicles - Battle Tournament" is an action-adventure game that released on the PSP back in 2009.
Set in a steampunk-inspired world, you take on the role of a Trotmobile (like a Mech bot) pilot in Orion City, aiming to win the prestigious Trotmobile gladiator tournament.
What's great about this game is that it's not all about bot-fighting but there's a lot of story and side-quests as you discover this steam punk world. You eventually gain access to the arena where you start earning money so you can upgrade your mech...I mean TrotMobile to be an even stronger killing machine with missiles and guns!
Another thing that I enjoyed is the beautifully hand-drawn art in the game - it adds to the steampunk feeling.
Here's a video reviewing the game and showing off the gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9OUeKHPoBY
First image below shows the game running on my Trimui SP (on which it runs beautifully):
Pls suggest me some good high quality Sony wired earphones for psp.....

I have a Japan launch PSP from 2004 and just yesterday got a metallic blue PSP that was made in 2008. Both have very little use and could be passed off as new. The screen on the metallic blue one just seems a little more deeper and more vivid. I had heard there was a slight revision to the 1000 model just before or around when the 2000 model came out. Does anyone know of any differences between older and newer screen?
Hi folks! I've been trying to move my music habits back to devices and start avoiding streaming. I've long noticed I'm becoming unsatisfied with my habits and the Spotify service, and learning the CEO funds military AI for Isr*el was the nail in the coffin for me to leave.
I do have a few questions for folks who use their PSP as a music player, mostly surrounding the fact that I work in music and all of my material and albums are in .wav format. And partially just asking so that these questions can maybe be google searched for someone else down the line:
So I have 2 PSPs, one is a 2000 and one is a 1000. I recently found the 1000 after it had been missing for a few years and I put my memory card from the 2000 into the 1000 and everything seems to work fine except for the fact that the custom sounds and some other elements of the PS5 theme I have are not working on the 1000, but they work on the 2000. I can't seem to find what's different between them.
Loaded up my modded psp to play some games and saw this. Tried P-tester to see if it was stuck but sadly I don’t think so. I most likely will need to do a screen replacement.
Hello Everyone,
I just bought a second hand PSP today. It had already CIPL inside, which i am fine.
But unfortunetely someone in da house... Updated it through the wifi to 6.61.
I have 3 files on games section
CIPL Flasher for Pro-B (When i open it, it says it is corrupted)
660 PRO-B Fast Recovery (I launch this, device turns itself off and does nothing)
Pro Update (To play the games, but now it says "does not support your FW")
Can someone help please? I am really new to this.
Thank you.
I buyed the parts to make the baryonsweeper but my PSP doesn't want to turn on when I touch the contacts the pysweeper on the pc doesn't show the fancy numbers Any tips? Or to make a baryonsweeper builded from a knockoff battery?
Hello, so I came here today to talk about a PSP I got in 2022 for Christmas, over time I accidentally dropped it various places and in a water fountain (luckily nothing in the hardware was damaged by the water) and wanted to know how feasible is it to get my crosshair, square, power slider, and screen fixed because I wanted to use my PSP and thought about as one of the first things I do when I get a job is paying for it to get those parts I mentioned fixed, I do want to note the screen is not messed up, I just hate what happened to my PSP's screen after the multiple times it got dropped. One of the reasons the power button needs to be fixed is it feels broken because once powered on, it will not turn off and the square and crosshair buttons are just un-useable.
I’m thinking of getting a psp again, my worry is I’m not really aware of any games I think I’ll like.
I liked little big planet, Lego Batman and harvest moon.
What simulation and rpgs do yall like?
I got a PSP 2000 and I wanted to ask how do you Connectto Wi-Fi ?
I want to get a psp for the game bully but I don’t know if it will run it
I'm tryna do it fast
Okay so.. that's very unfortunate.
The current situation is : my PSP won't ever turn on, with the battery out, in, plugged with the AC or USB.
Before that it worked perfectly. One day though the orange light next to POWER just stayed permanently on, even when unplugged or straight up turned off (the PSP was still in working order even in this weird state).
Then a few days later, every thing just stopped working at all. I tried a bunch of ways to see what was the problem, but couldn't find anything. For a while the orange light was lit up when the battery was inside, but it stopped doing that now. The light only lights up when plugged with the AC (only WITHOUT the battery installed for some reason), but other than that no sign of life.
Do you all think my console is bricked forever ?
Feel free to ask me stuff if needed
Hi! I'd like to add a manual (pdf format) to my copy of final fantasty 9, but when i tried to do so the result was a mess. Could I ask for some guidance please?
I tried to arrange them to category, me I like mostly RPG games Dungeon siege was my favorite, and the fact you could unlock weapons and armors in the game on the PC...
