BRICKED PSP!!!

Hey guys i need help!
I have a bricked psp 1.50 kernal psp which was 3.40-OEA due to me being a noob and deleting all my flash files lol, So i have no recovery menu.

I recently heard about Pandora's battery, and what i dont get is how to connect memory stick to computer.. solved connected it via a card reader but then while trying to format memory stick on command prompt via mspformat i cant do it, i get this (open error read) message, after i type in Y for yes. This is when im trying to make the 'magic memory stick'. Is it because i am using windows vista??

Another thing i dont get is how i am going to turn on my psp to go to games and execute pandora installer to then make 'jigkik'battery when the psp does not turn on at all??
Does the psp boot of the magic memory stick or something somehow so you can then make your jigkik battery??

Help would be appreciated

okay u need a working 1.5 homebrewed psp and we havhe another member that didnt get it to work on windows vista so u should borrow a friends psp and his windows xp home edition comp.

I have my brothers psp, it is official fw 3.40 and is locked up in a 3 digit silver box, to hard to crack.(tried all morning lol, trial and errored every digit and it just dnt work) dw ill get that psp sumhow.
So i need to downgrade his psp to 1.50? and i have my sisters computer which is xp, so i can do everything on her computer.

So u need a working homebrew psp to make the jikkick battery?
Could u also tell me how to downgrade fw 3.40?
When u said homebrewed psp is offical fw 1.5 enought or do u need custom fw?

well i couldnt get it to work on 3.40 oe-a but if u get it to 1.5 ill help u personally on msn if u want to yo.

"well i couldnt get it to work on 3.40 oe-a but if u get it to 1.5 ill help u personally on msn if u want to yo."

His psp is official fw 3.40, not oe-a. Mine is the bricked 3.40 oe-a. So i just need to downgrade his and then i can make pandora's battery.

Can any1 tell me how to downgrade from 3.40??

well i couldnt get it to work on 3.40 oe-a but if u get it to 1.5 ill help u personally on msn if u want to yo.

you dont really need to set your psp back to 1.50. on any custom firmware just switch the kernal to 1.50 at the recovery menu. also just to be on the safe side make back up folders of your flash folders. one more thing i dont know if newpspdude posted this but there is no downgrader for the 3.40. however, there is downgrader for the 3.50. look at the tut section for the tutorial.

Yer, u need lumines game, im in Australia cant rent one...

dw, i am just going to borrow my friends 3.40 oe-a which i hacked for him and put my batter and memory on his and do the pandora batter thingy. Ill use pacmans tutorial.
Thx for the reply

I'll also confirm that Vista gives an open error read that I don't know how to solve as of yet.

Id be the member that they were talking about who had trouble makeing it work in vista. I'll tell you and pacman if i get it to work eventually. pacman and newspsp dude are good people. follow what they say EXACTLY and youll be ok.

and in the words os newspsp dude when i bricked mine

its pspbrew.com were taling about. your psp will come back alive.

It's wierd because it worked for my friends psp on vista, I was there when he did it.

yeahh and i think im right it did come back alive well if that works just use 3.40 oe-a and use 1.50 kernal to make the battery and magic stick post if u get it to work but if i doesnt ill help

Hey guys i have a better idea, i was reading the topic under this helpsection called 'flash0 help' and they were talking about reinserting the flash files back into the psp.

I made a whole backup of my flash0 files before it went brick on me, the only problem is i need some kind of recovery menu to access the flash0 folders on the psp, plz tell me this can be done?
Like a bootable recovery menu for OE from a memory stick??

turn on ur psp and hold R if u cant get into recovery then u got to do the pandora battery thing

My recovery menu dsnt work but in that topic 'flash0 help' sum1 posted to go to this: http://dl.qj.net/Recovery-EBOOT-for-all ... /catid/151

Is this like a recovery menu thats work of the memory stick?

can u go to the main menu though? u need that to acces the recovery though
