Some
hackers from the Philippines did something ludicrous with their
PSP-3000, switching its CPU with the PSP Slim's. The result is that the
PSP Brite/Slim hybrid is able to run homebrew that's compatible with the
Slim.
The drawback is that the old CPU doesn't seem to be able
to support the PSP-3000's screen, so the hacker, Royginald, had to use a
PC monitor. It kinda defeats the purpose of the PSP Brite since it's
selling point is the screen (despite all the "features" it comes along
with), but at least he got it to work.
One explanation Royginald
offered for the LDC screen not working was that the pinouts for the
different models are different. Note that sound doesn't work either. The
system was updated to CFW 5.00 M33 before he started taking the
hardware apart. Here are the vids to see how Royginald did it, in
chronological order:
