Title: is there any danger in a psp running out of battery while using an emulator?
Post by: ananus on October 16, 2008, 04:01:35 PM

whenever the battery drops below 10% mvspsp keeps showing a message along the lines of "low battery. please recharge". is that meant to be just annoying or could my psp be bricked/fucked over this? it's a psp 2000 if it makes any difference.

It means... you have a low battery and should recharge. OH NOES

no shit. i want to know if my psp could be harmed somehow if i don't recharge it, since homebrew isn't officially supported. like when installing custom themes, i remember reading it may brick the psp.

Yes, it will break and your PSP will never be usable again, sorry. Charge your battery, you slob.

I don't understand what your question is getting at... just plug the damn thing in.

if you were flashing the psp with a low battery I could see that going wrong, but an emulator killing your psp that doesn't make any sense
