A Thumb Tack Analog Stick Method! Im saved!!!!

Recently I broke my PSP's analog stick off, and I can't find it anywhere! It came out when I was driving my car (my damn cousin was playing it) it probably fell out of the window into the highway or something, but anyways, I was looking on psp-hacks and I saw a cool little thumb tack method to replace the analog stick with just a bit of metal! I could even use surran rap just to make it look cool :D
Heres what you need:
small pliers (smallest you can find)
a thumb tack
a metal file

Heres the steps:
1. Take the thumb tack, (preferably a metal, rounded one) and use the pliers to cut most of the tip off.
2. See where your nub used to be? Check, and see how well it fits into the hole.
3. Depending on how you want it to be, adjust it as much as you like.
4. It may not fit too easily the first time, that’s why you have the metal file. Just file it until it fits snuggly in the hole.

It worked perfectly!!!

Many Thanks To Qj.net

IF you have a custom firmware installed then just use PSPSET. If something goes awry then you can just unbrick your PSP, even though I haven't had a problem with it in the past. The custom firmware recovery mode was made for this kind of thing.
Back, and playing with my "zompsp".

Dont use x-flash, use theme PSP and copy the original PSP theme, and replace the backgrounds.
u need to have it copied so you can get the original PSP theme back.
So:
1. Get Theme PSP
2. Copy Original PSP Theme and paste
3. Rename copied PSP Theme to what ever theme you want
4. Replace Backgrounds in copied PSP Theme
5. Run PSP Theme.
6. Choose to Install You're Copied theme and you should have you're backgrounds!

Be sure to use the ac adaptor cable aswell while doing this.
