Face button rewire mod

[rceckspurt13]

 I saw the tutorial on how to make your psp turn on and off with the music button. I am thinking of doing this but I have a few questions. First, do I have to cut the trace off of the original power switch? Will I be able to turn my psp on and off with the regular switch?

Also thisis completely unrelated but does anyone know what number is on a 10ohm smt resistor? I have an abundance of smt resistors and I need to know which are 10ohm.

Ya you cut the trace of the power switch on the board and no you cant use the switch  AT ALL unless you connect the trace you cut again if you dont like the note button.

But also you cant use the note button anymore after you do this mod.

you dont have to cut the power switch trace do you? but you do cut the note trace.

you dont have to cut the power switch trace do you? but you do cut the note trace.

Ya you Do.

yea in that tut is says to cut it to disable the normal switch but im saying that you dont have to cut the trace and still use the power switch as normal and use the note button to power it on aswell. i think.

Hmm

Maybe the Note button wont power it on?

Ill see ill try on a :censored:ed up powerboard and tell you all my results!

EDIT!

YOU DON'T NEED TO CUT IT!

Just solder to the Top leg of the switch and it can be used from the note button and power switch!

I couldn't believe it would work!

well that's good to know. I still anted to be able to use my normal power switch. Anyway does anyoneknow about the resistor?

EDIT: never mind. I found out about the resitors after a whole lot of google searching. Turns out the number is 100 for a 10 ohm smt resistor. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Nice find Jumbo, but there wasnt any reason for it not to work 

Ya but the tut told everyone to cut it  So now you don't need to for the people that didn't know lol
