Title: PSP permanatly bricked?
Post by: Art2Fly on March 17, 2009, 05:55:36 PM
I think i bricked my psp for good. It kept on freezing on me, so I rebooted and used hellcats recovery tool(the latest one with verified 5.00 update.) Then i was installing a fresh 5.00M33 it froze during the flashing process and shut off. Now i can flip the switch the led turns on and then turns off after 2 seconds nothing else turns on. I have not yet tried pandora. I will try to make a video later for more info. If anyone knows if pandora will wok or if i need to start saving up that will be great.
Thank You.

I use a magic memstick and a pandora battery. Always works for me.

I would say yes, get a pandoras battery. It's only 5 bucks at Dealextreme. Or 10 or whatever...

Dude its sounds like a bad keys/nand sorry. But i hope its not. Pandora is your last hope and or if you backed up your nand and key then theirs a chance

OK first I have had that problem before =P

Now that problem is Mainly from a pandora's battery Bug where you place a pandora's battery in and Take it out without Turning it Off.

Heres some Steps I used to fix this

1. plug in the Power cable and have the battery in the PSP (No memoryStick) and Turn on and HOLD for 20secs then Turn on again Soon as the Lite shows hit the Switch again  Keep doing this for a Good 5-7 times

2. Just get a pandora's battery Place it in (No memoryStick) and Turn On

3. It Could be it's Just Software Brick and can be a easy fix By getting a Pandora's battery and magic memoryStick.

I have Never Seen a psp that has a software Problem and Not Be fixed by a Pandora's battery , Long as you did not drop it then the pandora's battery will work Just fine.
