Nope. Outta luck, don't mess with stuff you don't understand next time (ie. flash0, it's sort of a tricky business for new comers).

Ahhh, reminds me of the days i did full flash0 swapouts to switch from one firmware to another instantaneously when no-one had even heard of the Pandora Battery - living on the edge :)

You really really should know what you're doing before you even touch the flash0... lesson learned i guess (the hard way)...

Custom themes seemed so much cooler when you had to do everything via flash0 :)

I stayed on 3.40 OE-A for ages just because no-one had converted my theme to the new firmwares and i didn't know how to hex edit :(

That blue battery could probably unbrick a PSP 3000, as it actually put the PSP into service mode (required with phat and non-cursed slims to install CFW). However, Sony saw to it that the blue pandora battery was never released.

The current firmware hack for the cursed slim uses a stack dump method (I believe. Please someone correct me as I'm a noob) sort of like the twilight hack does on Wii. However, it just places unsigned code into ram, and doesn't touch the flash memory of the PSP, therefore is safe.

IMHO, it's a good idea not to mess with themes or any flash related things on PSP that cannot be recovered from a full brick.

Long, but I hope that helps.
