i sent my psp in for a repair on a broken screen when i got it back it had been upgraded to 2.6 the disc tray wouldn't close properly and the screen had an "inactive pixel" after arguing with the sony rep for a while they agreed to repair the screen and then they told me that my psp will come back this time as 2.71 what should i do?

buy parts and repair it yourself is an option :). or if you dont run homebrew go get a 2.71

you can get a LCD screen for $45 USD and it is fairly easy to change. You can also get them for cheaper on ebay.

Once you send it to Sony they will upgrade it to 2.71...and repairing it your self will cost a fortune.

Repairing yourself:

LCD Screen 45 dollars
New UMD case 30 dollars

75 dollars

Sending it to Sony:

UP Modchip 100 dollars

100 dollars

So it cost's about the same...

Undiluted Platinum is a good choice.. But still... Dont you need the UMD tray for anything?
EDIT: And here's a link for some spare parts:

What do you mean "1.5 flash chip"?

The motherboard?

Do you have a ta-082?

The Undiluted Platinum is the only modchip available at this moment.
The second option would be another motherboard, but those are a bit harder to find, especially the 1.50 ones.
