This is the Holy Bible when it comes to PSP Memory Sticks, MicroSD management and pretty much everyone who enjoys PSP Modding should see (Even in the Reddits too). Thank your detailed research in Micro SD cards types, sizes, speeds and TRUE size limits in PSP. I tried to test some of these things in the past, but I spent way too much time browsing forums than playing my PSP, so lastly I throw a cheap 64 GB formatted by my PSP and filled it with ISOs and PSX Eboots. PSP is such a wonderful console and has so many interesting and enjoyable games.

Extremely helpful video buddy. Decided to dig out my original Euro release day model PSP a few weeks back. Needed new silicone pads as the buttons and d-pad were very unresponsive, an Sd card adapter (already had a spare high speed 64gb SD from drone flying), new anologue assembly (drift), new battery and soon going to be doing a shell swap for the crystal shell (I already watched your video and will be using it as a guide) and installing an IPS 1000 screen at the very end once everything else is in place as the shell swap looks potentially tricky but I am confident (Original screen is a little scuffed and not bright enough). After watching this very in depth video I decided to complely back up and redo the entire 64gb memoery stick formatted to 64 as you recommend and working on converting any uncompressed .ISO files as I write this. (Not compressing the GTA games though as I play them heavy and dont want stutter) Anyways thanks for your great PSP videos and you have a very keen new sub from me. * Quick edit to this. Beware of converting PSP .ISO files to .JSO if you use the PPSSPP emulator to play PSP games as it seemingly doesnt support .JSO. Stick with .CSO for a happy compression medium as it does support .CSO format.
@TotalKommando
16 күн бұрын
Once its its all done, its going to be pretty epic. The d-pad pads are going to be ok, the aftermarket analog is not going to be a smooth. The biggest concern would be the analog drifting after the shell swap, sometimes the pads could be dirty and just need some cleaning or the contacts are not being properly made. Good Luck : )

I haven't touched a PSP in more than 10 years, but I remember changing the compression level / strength when using .cso images (I have no memory about the other formats) would have a HUGE impact on both the resulting size and the loading speed / stuttering. I know testing each level for each format to find the sweet spot would've taken an absurdly long time but it's still worth mentioning, considering how in-depth the video goes.

@@ultraspinalki11 There's the 1000, 2000 and Vita TV. The 1000 is the original model (a.k.a, "Vita phat") that features an OLED screen. It has a variant, the 1100 model, with a slot for a SIM card to access the 3G network. The 2000 model (a.k.a. "Vita Slim") is a slimmer, lighter redesign with larger buttons and an LCD screen. The Vita TV is a Vita without a controller, battery, backpanel and screen that plugs into a TV. It's not compatible with all Vita games because of no touchscreen or backpanel. Personally, I'm a fan of the original model for the OLED screen. Even though it is an early OLED screen and it has some issues (doesn't completely turn off on all-black screens and I can see some black spots during screen transitions), the colours look great and it doesn't consume as much battery as an LCD screen.

Thanks for the validation! I tried every tutorial I could find, I also found that I could format the 256 card into fat32 and the PSP see all 256. But if you load up the card you'll see corrupted files. I could fit my whole game library or my movie library but not both. I found that loading files 10gb at a time, you'll start getting corrupted files around the 130gb and above. My solution is my main 128 card with games, and 128 card for movies. There is a 3D print file out there to make a SD and Duo card storage holder that fits in the UMD drive, and just swap them.

If you have a curated selection of games, 64GB is more than enough. Even 32GB should be plenty for holding all your faves. The only reason to get into the TBs is if you _really_ wanted to hold every single version of every single PSP game ever made for some reason, lol. But 64GB should be able to hold more PSP _and_ PS1 games than most people would ever realistically get around to playing.

It made sense back when they were originally made, uSD cards capped out at 16gb and didn't get particularly hot. Even when the uSD card size limit hit 64gb and cards started running hot the allure of 128gb remained strong. Other than Peace Walker, PSP games are cautious about writing to the card too often, because flash storage at the PSP's launch was infamously unreliable and they couldn't guarantee you'd ever upgraded, so there wasn't much risk of data loss during normal use.

Awesome video with tons of helpful information. Really appreciate the effort you put into these guides and for the benefit of the community. I remember in the early 2010s watching videos on YT for psp and people were either not helpful at all or would show something really cool but wouldn't guide people on how to achieve a said cool feature so I really appreciate what you do here. Regarding the 256G cards and adapters, I'll share my experience where I put a single micro sd of 256 GB sandisk into the dual slot cr5400 adapter and filled i think around 150 gigs with ps1 and psp titles, it worked fine for me, I gave 1 psp to my friend with that set up and kept 1 for myself. My friend's got the whole iso data corrupted after 2 years, I think the save files are fine but I haven't checked it myself, but the iso games won't work at all anymore. I don't have mine near me so I can't test it but the last I played it ( a year ago) it worked fine with that set up which i had kept for about a year. The adapters are very brittle though so ive taped them up to hold them together and they did work for a long time. when using 1 card in the dual adapter, when it fails i can just retrieve the data from the micro sd and use a new adapter to keep it working but yeah the load times for 256 is very long and I haven't tested beyond 256G. I was not aware of many things you mentioned in the video such as pushing on the micro sd broke the adapter, i did that many times without realising. also wasn't aware of jso and i didn't connect the dots that i might be getting corrupted files due to the larger micro sd. I could not get the 256 g card to work on those black adapters at all, I tried a bunch of em. it only worked on the dual slot ones labelled cr5400 ones. Edit: Forgot to mention, the one i gave my friend had 2 cards in the dual slot and that failed after 2 years, my setup had 1 card in the slot and worked for about 1.5 years according to my testing, but i dont have it near me so I can't test it at the moment to see if it still works.

Now would be the time to warn people about fake SD cards. You need to make sure the SD Cards are genuine and from well known brands. The fake ones use a storage chip that only stores a fraction of their stated capacity. When you try to store more past that actual capacity, data starts getting corrupted as the storage controller overwrites data in order to fit the new data, and you may even see strangely named files and folders popping up with strange file sizes. H2testw is a good program for testing the SD card is actually the listed capacity. Insert the SD card into the included adaptor and insert it into your PC and test the full capacity using the program. There's an English option in it. 3:30 Have you verified the SD cards were genuine using a program like H2testw before testing it in the Memory Stick adaptor?

Verify the SD Cards using the SD card port, not the Memory Stick adaptor, before claiming there's a problem with the adaptor. If H2testw detects no problems with the storage while inserted into the SD Card slot, it's the adaptor. If it goes red and claims errors, it's an issue with the SD card.

I would imahine the psp would have no such issues as it is not using weird hardware emulation modes like the 3ds.

Hey @totalkommando, I upgraded my PSP 1000 screen and faceplate, only issue I'm having is that the analogue stick is being finicky. It moves around on its own unless I apply pressure to the faceplate to hold it down (I haven't screwed it back together yet) but even when its working, my character in GTA doesn't jog forward, he only walks forward slowly leading me to believe the analogue stick is registering the upward movement as me moving the analogue stick only slightly up and not fully. I've cleaned that little rubber piece that connect to the analogue stick as well as all the connectors, and it's fully screwed into the faceplate. Any ideas what this would be?
@TotalKommando

This is a common problem with the 1000 stick that I soon realized I need to eventually make a video about it. I would try adding a piece of paper under the motherboard side where the stick contacts are to try and push it up further. You can also try placing the jelly in different orientations. adding a spacer to the analog secure points to try and push it further down to the jelly. And of course gotta full screw in the left side to get a good idea if its going to work once fully back together, if the connection is not perfect it will drift even if the whole analog is not even connected. Lemme know how it goes

You could use cloning / backup / imaging tools such as: - Mini Tool ( they got a few different tools ) free - Lazesoft ( works but usually slower than the others ) also free - I think you could use one of these to create an image and then use rufus to quickly write it

Question. Where do you get a good psp 3000 replacement screen. I bought one from aliexpress and is pretty good but the viewing angles are not very good in comparison to the original one, to the point that if you look at it from a extreme angle, the colors become inverted. Also, there is like a weird brightness problem whe looking at black screens, similar to a very cheap TN panel. Thanks

I have ordered a lot of 2000/3000 screens from various sources, and almost all of them have had defects despite being brighter and looking cleaner initially : ( You either got a defective one or a super cheap version of it This is one of them, got a good screen but it turned defective quickly, best option imo is to find a used old 3000 screen from a dead psp s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DFgX2g3
