Broken PSP

[Hermid]

Hi,

I have a psp 1001 which I purcased for 40 dollars(I knew it was broke when I bought it).
from the looks of it it has been droped and has a cracked Bezel(easy fix)
but has two other problems with its controls

The joystick does not responed correctly.
for instance in killzone liberation I am unable to move the charecter forwords/backwords, but am able to move him left/right(turing around)

2nd when I hit home, I am unable to select anything and canont exit the game. I am able to hit home and go back to the game. I have elimnated a frameware problem, as I upgraded the frameware to version 5.

Anyway have any ideas whats wrong. before I move any farther.

well if it was dropped it could have easily messed up the analog controller, that is also an easy fix.
the other issue could be the homebar being messed up. that is also a fairly easy fix.

i would check out dealextreme.com and look for replacement parts, they are pretty cheap and free shipping.

also, just so you know, it is called firmware not frameware....just an fyi.

thanks,

just double checking becuase I start to fix it. and I sometimes spell frimware for some strange reasonframeware

[Hermid]

what part would I need to fix the home key?

[seagrtj]

it is called the homebar?
when you press home does anything pop up? do the volume keys work? what about start/select?

everything else works fine except the home key. When i press home the screen that asks me if I want to quit the game, but I am unable to move the cursor with the arrow keys and I am uable to selction cancel and enter either

the home key might be sticked or some other but will is sticked ..
that is two keys might be pressed when u press home key or the home key gets sticked so u r not able to move ur cursor ..

that might be the reason is it seagrtj??? would like to know..

it's possible, but i think you would still be able to select yes or no. who knows, if the home bar is messed up it could cause that to happen too

first install a fresh cfw,then replace the homebar l0l.
