My PSP [X] button is not working properly.

Like the title says my [X] button is not working properly in order for it to work i have to press really hard which is annoying for most games. Also on a side note my battery drains really quick.

What's the go-to battery for a big battery mod?

I've seen some people recommend a Galaxy note 3 battery, other write ups use a no-name chinese phone battery.

As long as it's flat and 4000mAh are they pretty much the same size?

Psp 1000 how to test power switch

My PSP 1000 used to work when I plug it in. It shows the orange light with the battery. In or out? And I am having trouble figuring out if it's a switch issue, because it won't turn on

Remembered I still had this, powered right up!

I forgot I had this still. I stowed it away with some other old gaming stuff. Yesterday I was looking into handheld PC devices and remembered I still have this PSP!

Not sure what, if anything, I will do with it but I was glad to see a PSP sub. Time to lurk and see what this thing can do!

I did play a little battlefront 2 when it powered up 🤙🏼

How Can You Tell If a Bettery Cover is Original?

Hi all,

As the title says: are there telltale signs to spot original battery covers from replacement ones? I am interested specifically in covers for the PSP 2000, but any info would be appreciated.

For example, I am sure one of these covers are fake (perhaps both), but how can I tell?

https://preview.redd.it/omyqi4ocbw4e1.jpg?width=2400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6ddb183896fb409283776e8d6668c066edfd0974

What are the sign I should be for the lookout if I want to hunt down an original battery cover?

Thank you very much!

Which PSP model to get?

So currently own a couple 1000 and want to mod my PSP to be an almost Nintendo switch replacement, but obviously only play retro and PSP games.

What do I mean by switch replacement? I'd like to make the following mods:

TV Out - either modding a 1000 with HDMI out or using a 2000/3000 with TV out cables.

USB C charging - would be nice to use my existing USB charger vs having to carry another charger

Glass screen/IPS - Seems like this is easier in a 200/3000 model for glass screen, but IPS only available for the 1000.

Anyone done all of this and how did it work out for you?

idk what to do

PSP3K doesn't detect battery. Plugged up is the only way to keep it on (has to be a certain angle at that). What should i do? I've messed with everything like reinserting power cables, there doesn't seemed to be a blown fuse, so I'm very lost on what to do next. Only thing I haven't touched is the motherboard.

HELP! PSP Model 2000, current CFW 5.00 M33-2, Inifnity 2 then says "Could not disable kernel whitelist (ffffffff)"

HELP!

disclaimer: please bear with me, i am not a techy person, i don't really know the proper terms to use or how to properly say the names but i learned some these processes from watching YT videos and this time im really stuck.

i bought a psp 2000 from FB market place then decided to update the cfw to 6.60 or 6.61 using Infinity 2. y current cfw is 5.00 M33-2 but when i run Infinity 2 it says "Could not disable kernel whitelist (ffffffff)"

what are the steps to fix this? i tried looking into some suggestions here in the subreddit but i find it very confusing and overwhelmed with the information that i can't understand yet since im not really a techy guy...

straightforward steps are appreciated thanks PSP community!
