Hack 4. Change the Background Color on Your PSP

Do you hate green, but love blue? Find out you how to keep your PSP's background set to your favorite color.

This is a simple trick to keep the background color in your PSP's main interface set to whatever color you like best. If you are running Version 2.0 of the firmware, you can set your background color by navigating to Settings Theme Settings, hit the X button, select Theme, hit the X button again, and select a color from the menu that appears on the right. The colors will change as you scroll through the list. If you choose Original, then the color will change each month. Hit the X button to make your selection and you are done.

If you are running an earlier version of the firmware [Hack #11], you lack this function, and the background color is solely determined by month. You just have to have a correct charting of the different colors according to month, and then reset the PSP's date to the corresponding month for the color you'd like. Sure, you have to remember to update it once a month, but this shouldn't adversely affect your PSP in any way (although your saved games will all be dated incorrectly to whichever month you choose).

1.5.1. Charting the Color Calendar

If you want to discover things on your own, it's a rather simple process:

  1. In the PSP's main menu, simply navigate to Settings Date & Time Settings Date and Time.

  2. Hit the X button again, and you will see the color change to whatever color goes with the next month.

  3. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you've charted the full year.

To make things easy for you, you can look the colors up in Table 1-1.
