Home button activation issue on PSP

Hello, I have a little problem

When I play my games on the PSP, the HOME button function activates by itself and it brings up the EXIT menu: YES-NO, and when I select NO, it takes me back to the game but the problem keeps repeating itself and I don't know what to do to fix it. So if anyone has a solution to suggest, please respond, thank you very much.

PS: I am on CF 3.90
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0

  1. I don't know if you have solved your problem, but it comes from the opening sensor of the UMD hatch. It's the small white piece with two hooks that slide to the left.
    I had the same problem, and I manually operated that piece several times in a row and gently blew compressed air on it, and since then it hasn't happened again.

    1. Non, ça ne marche toujours pas pour moi :/ Le bouton "heme" s'active quand je joue, que j'appuie sur la touche "note".

      1. Don't press the note key .................................................. actually, where is this key?

      2. The problem isn't the button panel, it's the UMD drive that's glitching.

    2. HELLO. For those who have issues with the PSP buttons (home, start, select) or volume, you just need to change the button ribbon that is located right under the screen case, which can be easily taken apart. You only need to buy it from this site http://www.assentek.com/catalog/index.php/cPath/96_120; it's called: Replacement ribbon cable for start, select, volume buttons... Check out the video on YouTube on how to easily disassemble a PSP. Here it is:

      1. I have the same problem and I didn't know I was the only one in this situation. And I don't know what to do, I think I'm going to go to République (in Paris) to have it repaired. Otherwise, could you tell me the price to repair the HOME button and some tips to fix it myself?
        Please. Thank you.

        1. Exactly the same problem, I'm on 3.90 M33, I updated and it didn't change anything :'(
          But now the problem is not the same, the home button doesn't work at all, impossible to exit a game :s before it opened when I pressed the note key which is not normal but now it doesn't open anymore.

            1. It costs between 20 and 40 euros.
