How-To: Switchable Pandora PSP-Slim Battery (Hard-Mod)

[bboylayz]

Thanks a million! I used clear tape and taped a wire to the contacts (took so many tries because it's so tiny) to pandorize my battery for the install then i just took the tape out and it worked amazingly. You are a godsend, I couldn't find any easy pandora tutorials for the slim battery til this. So thanks!

Those of you who have done it, is that the place I should solder the wire ends?

[JayL]

Yeah, this is the place to solder the wires,
but I would recommend not to solder to the traces
but solder to the small electrical parts directly.
I think i's easier.

Hey nice work, but does your swtich work =?

I build it like u . But my switch doesn`t work. i cant play in battery mode.

Please Help ??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Sorry 4 my bad english

[JayL]

Of course it works. i use it every day ^^
check all soldering connections for
any shorts. if everything is right
check your switch again with a multimeter.
did you short something when soldering?

[madmoxx]

No there are no shorts. i have now put the switch of. but it doesn`t work as a normal battery. When i put the battery into my psp it turns on alone and i have a plack screen and the orange led for MS on the left side turns on.

if i did a short at solder i dont remember. u think i did ??

@ JayL

Ok here's the thing....... I too want to hard mod my battery [PSP-S110] using single wire method ....... But my battery is made in Japan ....... & i'v heard that new batteries that are made in japan are pandora proof ....... But i dont know whether they are softmod proof or hard mod proof or both soft & hard mod proof ........ So if you know anybody that has the same battery (made in japan) who got the hard mod to work.... then let me know .... cos i will not go for the mod until & unless i'm 100% sure that it'll work ........ If you want to help me out then please reply in the thread that i have started in HARDWARE section Thread Name is :- Battery Confusion - [Made in China/Japan] ...... I could have posted the url to the thread but forum rules state that you should have atleast 15 post before you could post the url ......... Thanks

[JayL]

@jack_rudolph: I made a post in your thread jack

@madmoxx: It could be, but I don't know...
I have the same problem with one of my fat batteries.

[madmoxx]

I think maybe the dats of the battery are deleted and so the battery "think"that it is still a pandora.
It is possible that i copy the battey information from a normal battery and play it on the pandora ???
