hi,

im sorry about the detail... that is the pinout i meant (thanx lewbacca)... actually the device works fine when the indicator steady for a moment and then blinking state that the position is fixed... im using mapthis V0.2 and change the baudrate to 4800, with no UMD in the compartment and wifi off... and also the fakefeed set to 0... even i try the GPSlim236 Eboot also cant receive any info on lat and long that im on...

the diagram is like this...

pin 1 (GPS) -> 1k -> pin RX (PSP)
pin 4 (GPS) --------> pin ground (PSP)
pin 5 (GPS) --------> +5V (dc adapter)
ground (GPS)** -----> ground (dc adapter)

** note that this is not the same ground wire as pin 4, this is another ground wire from within the cable..

am i doing something wrong here? or anything should i do to make it works?

From the diagram, posted above, should not you connect pin2 (not 5) to +5V dc adapter?
I would also try:
pin 3 (GPS) -> 1k -> pin RX (PSP)
in case pin 1 does not work...
