I'm going to hack my cousins psp and hook it up for him. Thats easy its just the psp will not connect to any usb it just says please wait i have left it alone for an hour and it does nothing.i have tried to connect it to 2 different computer and a ps3 still the same results. I'm pretty sure its not the usb cord. All answers appreciated thanks
-
Has the USB charge mid been done to it? If so it may have been done incorrectly causing the USB not to function.
-
oh i'm sorry i forgot to say no mods have been done to it, It has never been opened. It's a virgin :winker:
-
Does the computer detect the usb when its connected?
-
No nothing happens even the ps3 doesn't detect it.
-
Just take the memory card about an stick it in the PC.
-
Well if your computer dosent have a memstick reader then that dosent help.
The advice I would give to you is this:
Open the psp down to the motherboard, look at the USB and make sure all the pins are there and are straight.
Take a picture of it if possible and post it on here. It's much easier to diagnose a problem when you can see it.

^^^^^^
Yep,
But if even if no one here can help you can get a cheap memory card reader to USB for like $5 bucks on Amazon.com
-
ok but i wanted opening the psp to be my last resort but thanks for all the replies. Also the memory card reader i dont now if that would work if it had trouble connecting the the usb then it could have trouble with the whole memory function. It could be related.
-
I would suggest the card reader. If the card reader doesn't work, get a new card.
Fairly sure it is the mobo.
As a last resort I would take apart the usb cord. If it is a 2in1 cord (charge and usb), they have a history of wires shorting or being pulled apart from a small board that redirects all of the wires inside.

ok thanks im going to first try a new usb cord if that doesnt work then im going to buy a card reader and if the psp dosent read the card then im going to open it up and have a look around.
-
if the other suggestions does not work and you end up opening it up just do what rceckspurt13 said. and just make sure everything is in place, if something is loose, a quick soldering should fix it.
