If there are no scratches or damage... i would advise you to take it back to the shop and say its not working... and you have no idea why.
I know its slightly dishonest advise... but ;)
They should give you a new piece and this will probably go back to sony so no real harm done.
Best of luck!

Oops! Sorry to hear that...
Just incase you do repair it or buy a new one... the first thing you should do is get a protective case for it, thats what I did with mine and it paid for itself in days.
Unfortunatly I dont have the knowledge to help you fix this one, so I shall quietly exit... but there are some real gurus here so I think your problem might be solved, I wish you the best of luck!

Second hand from... someone else or a high street shop (preowned)
because if you have its still covered by the shops warranty.

Whoa! Bad luck m8... if it makes you feel any better if I EVER run into anyone who says they have done something like that, will punch him on the nose for you! :)
Best of luck with your new PSP, needless to say... get the protective case/cover for it, it pays for itself even if you dont drop it..
Cheers!

Eh? I dont see much of a problem here, you need to update to play GTAVCS thats all, its asking you to accept or decline the update.
Advice would be not to update, whats your current firmware? And is your PSP a TA-082?

Yea during updates u cant read the words that says accept decline and the licen agrements and stuff, this has happen to me before...its just that the disk is probably scratched, or something to do with the disk.

Version spoff doesnt do anything it just make the version under system info say something different. You cant play higher version game or anything. U should install dark_alex's custom firmware. Its not really risky

It doesnt do anything just make it says something else than your actual version. If u version spoff to 3.03 on 1.5 sony still dectes that its 1.5, but it just says 3.03 under system info. Just something to custom it. Like those costom words like it says App indtead of games.

Question 93 - Difference between the JAP(Sharp) and the USA/EUR(Samsung) Screen
Well, how did you confirm that? and where'd you get that comparison pic? Do you own both and did you take the pic yourself?
I'm asking because I've talked with many guys who own both version and they say there's absolutely no difference.
For more info refer to this thread

I'd appreciate a reliable source.
Thank you.

I was kind of lazy to Find the words but there's this one quest of how can I fix the error when I go infrastructure mode or on the inter net that says "Couldn't obtain IP adress. Time to obtain IP adress timed out."

@stikfas:
Just a quick FYI, was browsing ebay and saw they are selling replacement screens for PSPs... you might want to check it out as it may solve your problem...

There is i think no 2.814 devhook. but there is 3.03 fw devhook. i think it was called devhook 0.52. I dont use devhook anymore since i got custom firmware so...

There is no devhook for 3.03. It has gone beyond that. It is now open edition (OE).
