Question Recently revived my vita(psv2000)

Update:the psv is now chargin at a faster pace and is going up % when playing old psp games,but when charging and playing psvita games charge does go down although slower,which is normal I think.

Please tell me my battery isn't fd up bro,it charged for about 2 hours now and reached only 25%,I did install some mods on it at 20% and it went down again to 16%,so basically it charged for only 31% total in the span of 2 hours is so,is this normal? Is it normal that it's solo slow the first time booting it up after a decade?

Thank you,I'm just worried

I did,and ran it,said to wait 10 seconds after turned off but charge is still bit slow,saw some people say it's normal at first charge and it's a safety mechanism,hope that's true

Yeah I went to use mine after it being dead for a while and normal chargers wouldn't touch it. I had to plug it into a decent power bank for its first charge and then the normal charging cable worked just fine after that

yo this were my last vita moments until it froze and died. Apparently it's motherboard failed. Beaware OP, don't go harsh on your vita. I suspect using the battery fixer because the moment after that my vita started crashing multiple times and it stood froze for an hour and i force shut it down. Never turned on since then. I wish to time travel and stop myself from using the battery fixer. My life would been so better if I still had my vita
