I just bought a replacement faceplate (XCM) for my PSP fat but in this faceplate there is no place to screw the analog joystick replacement unit back on

There is simply no place for the screws I took out earlier. SO now I just put the joystick replacement unit just in there without tightening it.....
Is this gonna be a problem??????

this is about fixing the analog stick going in one direction without you touching it, and it's also related to lack of sensitivity and to what people mean exactly by "the rubber bit"

the rubber bit peopel keep going on about is a clear piece of rectangular rubber with a row of 4 gold lines embedded in it, it's about 1cm long and is a sqaure-prism if that makes sense

it connects the motherboard to your analog stick, so obviously [altho it took me ages to notice this]
you want to have the gold lines to go vertically from the gold contacts on your green motherboard to the gold contacts at back of your analog stick.

hopefully, you'll notice a rectangular shaped slot on the metal - [that sat underneath your analog stick before you opened it up] - there's a little bracket around this and the rubber bit clicks into place here

[if your psp isn't registerring the analog stick and instead just sends it off in one direction, it could be that your rubber bit has been dislodged-mine was]

oh, be careful moving this, it's dam hard to get hold of another one and it's delicate, even tho it's rubber. it rips and chips really easily, so try not to your nails, instead try to stroke/roll it out of/in place

after you've removed and replaced it and you're trying to get the analog stick in the sweet spot where it's all cool, if you're having trouble getting it right, try pinching different parts of the PSP while you move the analog stick-dont worry if the sensitivity's really bad, we can fix that easily. just make sure you get it roughly into a good position, then screw the PSP back up TIGHT. i've found that this automatically puts the analog stick into the right position [of course, helping it along beforehand will benefit], but yeah, it worked for me cos i just got frsutrated and tried screwing it back together

then, to sort out your sensitivity, take out your battery and replace it, then boot up your PSP and while doing so, keep rotating the analog stick in a circle [i went clockwise] and it'll clear itself up neatly

hope it's been helpful

\mine went to the top left aswell, it seems like this is the default direction that it wants to go or something? anyway, have a look at my post, it should help you with the fixing method on page 1
