(Not sure which subforum this goes too) I need help making a Pandora battery.

[B]THIS IS NOT THE "Eight Prong" version. This has a series of smaller prongs. Around 16-17-18 on each side.[/B]

You heard me. I've already cut open the case. It's a Sony 3.6v, 1800 mAh battery park, "Model Psp-110", Li-ion, standard with the 1001. Google didn't do shit, nor did youtube. I could really use some helps.

Quality of battery itself is so bad due to battery dying at the end. Sorry. Essentially the circuit board is that tiny green thing on top. [B]I need to cut something on there, but I don't know what. [/B]This battery was also obtained around 2-3 years ago.

All of them, wrong.

Third pic in OP is mine, by the looks of it.

You'll need to disable the EEPROM (the chip with 8-pins, usually marked S93C96) by cutting it's ground pin, but it doesn't look like the EEPROM is exposed on that side.

Check the underside of the PCB. If it isn't exposed there I don't think you'll be able to hardmod the battery.

I knew I saw a layout of this battery PCB type somewhere.

According to a [URL="http://www.rohm.com/products/databook/general/pdf/br24l01a-w-e.pdf"]datasheet[/URL] it should be pin 4, [URL="http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/6121/dsc00443altxw3.jpg"]located here[/URL]. I've seen only a few reports of success cutting pin 4. Suggest you do some research yourself on L02 batteries before cutting the pin.

I've fucking been cutting it. I don't think It's breaking.

Pandora battery doesn't work on the 3000 model right? :(

Sorry if this sounds stupid but what is a pandora battery.

Nvm google for the win.

Nope, as of late game savedata and VSH exploits are the only way (publicly) to run homebrew on the 3000.

Ah, forget it. Ordering one. Thanks for the tips though, guys.

Reminds me of the time I made my own.
Didn't disconnect the power and it nearly exploded.
