Author Topic: Dual Nub on Go? (Read 20030 times)

I think we will be able to get dual nubs on a Go, we will probably loose the start and select buttons but that would make the perfect spot for a 2nd nub.

I think the start/select buttons are going to be on a little plastic film similar to the way the slim face buttons are done now. If that's the case all we have to do is remove the film, sand the spot down and connect the nub. We don't actually have to lose the start/select buttons either, we can get some micro tact switches and solder them to the fpc connector and we are done. The problem is we won't be able to do this if all the buttons are on one big board which can be possible since the unit is so tiny.

So true i wonder what mods we will be able to do to the Go.

Well I already started saving for one launch day and my B-day is in a few weeks so thatl help probably going to get a white one.

I really want one, but the only problem is no CFW... If it is hacked I will definitely buy one.

I'm sort of take it or leave it. I defiantly won't be getting one because of the cost. I'd sooner buy a PS3. If I had $250 I'd keep saving for a PS3, not something I already have.

yeah, that's kinda where I sit... It doesn't add anything new to the gaming experience.

I'll buy one at launch if I have the money to spare. Launch day things are easier to get hacked.

I would put the start and select buttons next the the play station logo.

Which is exactly why I will be buying one on launch day aswell.

Unless I can get one before launch day O.o

there will be aboard under the start + select. guaranteed. it wont be that easy. also, relocating those buttons you moved will be hard.

relocating it will be the hardest unless theres a bunch of extra space. but we might still need to extend a ribbon cable .

wtf? button relocattion is the easyiest, The hardest part is ftting the nub on there

JoblessPunk · « **Reply #17 on:** June 13, 2009, 01:54:06 PM »

I'm a little late to this thread but I would like to put my 2 cents in.

I'm always up for a challenge but, I'm not sure this is feasible....with the current way we do it by using the Razor-X.

the minimum dimensions of the Razor-X is around:
X - 1.5 cm
Y - 1.5 cm
Z - 3mm

So we would have to some how fit that into that space.
Plus, I bet you that on the inside of the PSP GO its just one big motherboard and the buttons are similar to the a TV remote.

To relocate the actual Start/Select buttons wouldn't be hard, but you would have to cut into the motherboard to fit the Razor-X into that space. If you could do that without splicing or shorting out any connections.... that would be amazing.

I could be proved completely wrong and I really hope so, but without having a PSP GO to open up in front of me I cant see this happening.

this is what i meant

You might need to extend the ribbon on the start/select two
and if the start/select thing one piece we will have to separate them.
because on go there above each other. in that pic there side by side.

I don't think the start/select buttons are a separate board, I think the whole unit is one big board.

EliteGamer83 · « **Reply #20 on:** June 13, 2009, 07:57:05 PM »

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's all soldered onto one main board much like a DS.

BTW that's a bad Photoshop, the Start and Select are off center lol.

ryan0 · « **Reply #21 on:** June 14, 2009, 04:16:54 PM »

I don't know whats up with all the pessimism about moving the buttons,give me 3 wires and 2 mini tact switches....sorted
The only thing worth pondering is where to put the buttons,which depends on where there's space.
The arrangement in the shooped pic above will most likely be impossible,as there will be a ribbon cable going from the motherboard to the screen there.
I'm thinking opposite the PS button,because it's more than likely that there's nothing there to get in the way,and the best bit is there's no problem with getting it to conform to the sliding mechanismjust stick it beside the ribbon cable from the fpc.

I expect the mobo to look like this
but after some thinking it probably looks like something else
because of the depth of the buttons, which make it nearly impossible to be placed on the mobo

(new picture coming)

hmm i was thinking about something like this

but after drawing it, i was thinking about the connector that is in the trim of the psp go, that multi connector thing, Which is used for charging, video transfer, USB etc.. That would need to be attached to something too, so now i'm thinking of the 1st design i made

dude... AM is probably one of the ONLY places that would even THINK about cracking one of these puppies open for a dual nub...

o and we need a new select button beacuse if we just moved it it would be upside down or the letters would be upside down.

Just use some from the 1000,2000, or 3000, Simple.
