Making the Most of Your PSP
When people refer to the term PSP hacks, it's all about customizing, modifying and altering the PSP in a way that optimizes it's performance. The easiest way to learn a certain PSP hack is to watch an instructional video.
There are two main types of PSP hacks; firmware or software hacks, and hardware hacks. Firmware is the software pre-programmed into the PSP which make everything run the way it does, and there are custom firmwares available which enable custom programs, often referred to as homebrew applications, to be run. Hardware hacks involve modifying the circuitry or appearance of the PSP. Examples include installing a mod chip or adding custom lights.
On this page you will find videos and resources all about PSP hacks. Some PSP hacks videos will introduce you to certain elements while others will be more in-depth.

Up until recent months, if your PSP's firmware became corrupt while downgrading to custom firmware, your only option to fix your PSP 'brick' was to install a new motherboard or mod chip.
