Hi, I was sitting on the floor with my psp (phat vers.) on my lap, It was off at the time and I dropped it (about 6 inches is all). I tried to turn it on, and it won't power up. It doesn't make any mechanical sounds inside or anything. The green LED light comes on but won't go off, even when I hold the power switch (I have to take the battery out to turn it off). Also it turns orange when it's plugged into the wall. I tried removing and reinserting the battery, and even switching batteries but nothing happened.

I had been running custom firmware 3.80 m-33 but it had been functioning properly (and had been for quite a while) and I've never had any problems with it, so I'm fairly sure it isn't bricked. I tried shining a light at the screen to see if I could see any picture and I tried testing the backlight fuse, so I dont think thats the problem either. I dont have a pandora battery anymore so I can't test it with that, unless its a last resort (I'll have to buy one and I'm broke)

I think it must be a hardware problem but I'm out of ideas for things to test. Any help would be appriciated.

Thanks!
