Restoring a Forgotten and Destroyed PSP - ( PlayStation Portable )

Ғылым және технология

Hi everyone, thank you for 12 minutes of your time. In this video I back in function PSP 1000 that was forgotten with years. While assembling I have to do few more adjustments to the case and couple repairs that unfortunately I didn't record it, I didn't believe that I will repair this PSP. But here is it, fully working ( I had to clean the CD laser head again - as a bonus ). With this PSP I got some other parts from other PSP model, later I got one more newer PSP to restore it, but that is going to be in some other videos.

    Really the PSP is the predecessor to all the hand held consoles and hand held PCs we see today like those from AYA NEO and GPD. Used to own one, I think I still have it. Played Patapon 2 and 3 with it, Valkyria Chronicles 2.

    the PSP is still an awesome handheld, you can mod them and 3rd party manufactures have made some awesome mods for it. you can get a ISP screen, better buttions, there is a microSD card to Sonys card so you can install all your games to that and emulate if you want.

    I saw one of your other PSP restoration, and it instantly made me want to pick up my own PSP again! Sadly, soon I remembered why I put it away; bad L button (doesn't work), and it's just really unstable overall. It only turns on after what I call a kickstart (plugging into the charger and unplugging it). The screen sometimes doesn't turn on, but I can still hear sounds, etc. It's just really weird.

    The plastic scrren lens on the original case can acutlly be removed. It just takes a lot of fiddling and some force to get off. You cant use harsher solvents like acetone because that will attack the sourrunding plastics, use isopropanol instead to loosen some of the glue. Aftermarket you can get an actual glass screen lens that fits perfectly in the spot where the plastic one usually goes. You just need to glue it there with some B7000 or similar.
