ok before anyone jumps to conclusions MY psp is fine and im staying in brew. But i wish i could say that for my friend alex.
heres the story:

ok it was a fine morning and i brought my psp with tekken (as did alex) to skool. we went to play multi player on the bus and he had to update be-cuz he had 2.0 and couldnt use devhook. so he popped in his MIDNIGHT club 3 game and hit update he followed all the steps corectly but it stopped at 1% for like 20 mins so he said "im taking out the game" so he did and put it back in and it said "the disc could not be read if you exit now your psp system might not turn on again" he said o well and turned it off,well apptempted to anyway, he had to hard boot it, and he went to turn it on and it didnt turn back on...he said wtf it should turn on be-cuz it was only at 1% but it was still bricked...i warned him... but he didnt head it...


any ides how to fix it .. i seriously doubt it
(he was tryin to update from 2.0 to 2.60)

u cant update without an AC power cable plugged in... the update process is looking for it and wont do anything without it...

just plug in the power cord and go through with the update

not without custom firmware which is only for 1.5. Only thing he can do is get a modchip to unbrick it. btw, a pre-flashed mod chip with 1.5 so he can 2.6 update to his flash0, then downgrade it normaly.
