    • Gently separate the two cases, minding the battery and the touch screen controller connectors holding the two cases together.

    One of the shoulder buttons fell out when I was doing this step, along with the piece holding it in place. They go back in just fine when reassembling but make sure that they are oriented properly, of course.

    Any idea what type of pcb header is on the board for the battery? I have a motherboard with a broken header but I cant source a replacement

    Jimbo Jones - Yanıt

    This is where I screwed up so I recommend extra caution for other newbies. Only the black part is supposed to come off. Don't be an idiot like me and pry off too much...

    ylimakiminna - Yanıt

    Yea I messed up there too. Is there a way to fix it?

    Alethia Henry - Yanıt

    This component was far more stubborn than the screen connector when it came to removal. I opted for a smaller tool than the spudger (small flat-head) and managed to disconnect it after determining the best bit size for the job. Screwdriver is metal, obviously, so being gentle helps to avoid damaging anything.

    Hello, I have the PCH-2001 model of the PS vita and the right analog stick went out. I ordered a replacement and the stick is slightly larger than the original. The original has a black rectangle on the back, the new version has the star version, which is what you have on this website as the replacement part. Any help here would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    Got the same, used PH #0 and grabbed wireless card casing with fingers from the top to release pressure on screen and avoid (possibly) breaking it.

    Yuriy Zhyromskiy - Yanıt

    Some PS vita models seem to use a T2 screw instead of a PH#00. I’ve encountered this twice now.

    I replaced de wifi card but is still difficult to connect to wifi. Could it be the wifi antenna? which cable model is it?

    Fernando Diaz - Yanıt

    3G Vita 1000.

    I found that the PH00 head wouldn't actually fit in to the screw correctly. A PH000 fit but was still requiring a bit more force than seemed necessary. Also the card did not pop up when the screws were released and that's because Sony used a tacky pad under the card so needed a bit of prying up to get the angle.

Samir Al Jubori - Yanıt

it should be noted that the memory card should always be taken out before separating the case. I just broke my memory card slot by having a card in there while I was opening the case, there's a tiny bit of overhang that will pull the slot off the motherboard.

bryandodson - Yanıt

does anyone know what firmware version the motherboard comes with?

riddochj - Yanıt

These are used Motherboards. You could get a motherboards with a random FW version.

Okay My original Motherboard power connector broke. So nothing was wrong with it except the Power connector.

My first buy of the Motherboard screen connector broke off.

The Replacement works well, however the Touch input isn't working, unless I restore the device. After a certain amount of time it becomes unresponsive.

Do anyone have a fix before I get a 3rd replacement.

This guide isnt totally correct. Some ps vita has a special screw securing the wifi module into place. I have yet to figure out what kind of screw this is. It happens to a low percentage of ps vitas but it does happen and should be noted.
