you should still be able to get into recovery mode... just hold the power button until the psp shuts off then turn it on again with the R trigger. It should come up.??

If the psp is "full Bricked" eg, that you cant access recovery mode (has to have a custom firmware), then there are 3 options.
- Buy a modchip (involves installing where you have to solder, really hard)
- Buy a new motherboard ( only have to replace it, screwdriver is need, better option)
- Buy a new psp
You could also try calling Sony and telling them it happened after you updated to 3.52, Dont tell them you tried to run a homebrew app, downgrade or anything of that sort.

but If you call sony, they might send you a new one with 3.52 firmware, you'd be better off going out, buying a new one, putting your old one in the box of the new one, take it back and say it diddn't work.
