Brightness Level 4 is bright, but we need the power adapter plugged to keep it. The problem is obvious - we can't drag the power cord everywhere.
The problem is over now. We are glad to share a very handy method for keeping your PSP locked on Level 4 Brightness, without any messy process.
• Plug in your power cord.
• Adjust your brightness to Level 4.
• Start a UMD game.
• When the program launch video is being played (the one with green balls flashed and PSP text in the middle of the screen), make sure you unplug the power cord from the PSP when the launch sound effect is over. You will notice that the brightness didn’t fall down to level 3.
And now, your screen brightness is locked at Level 4! You can suspend and resume the PSP, turn it off and back on, or even turn the screen off by pressing and holding the brightness button until the screen is turned off, and none of the actions above will make your PSP lose Level 4 brightness! The power saving screen shutting off function will not change the brightness too.
The only way to go back to brightness level 3, is to adjust it manually by pressing the brightness button.
We should say, this is a very handy way to keep the brightness on-the-go. Level 3 is not enough for some videos sometimes. The only thing you need to make sure is not to touch the brightness button until necessary.

I know, but when I submitted it, I made sure to put that I had quoted it from the psp updates board. I just submitted the article, that's all.

Well they may have posted that too... And CoCaHead may have done a bit of copy and pasting or paraphrasing....
But I'm pretty sure we discussed this a long time ago on this site... I knew about it... I really thought it was more commong knowledge than a secret.
I mean technically it's a bug... (Unrequested Functionality) I'm sure Level 4 is supposed to be only available during it's charge. They must have left out some code to detect the disconnect and adjust the brightness ... Left out is a bad choice... More like didnt feel like going the extra step to write that bit of code...
Either way, I knew about it... It comes in handy with dark games like GTA.

Wow, I didn't know GTA was dark? Is it still playable on brightness 3?
+
but at nighttime in the game it gets pretty hard to see.but on sunny or clear at 11 you can see very goooooood.
+
Why would you want this?
+
just for better brightness.
+
GTA isn't dark if you pause and go to display and adjust the brightness to the fullest.
+
thats true,but some videos lokk better with the brightness on 4
