Ok, so about two weeks ago, I dug out my PSP-1000 (TA-79) and installed CFW on it so I could play some emulated games on vacation. Before I left, my sister asked me to install it on her PSP-1001 (TA-82). Last week, I did the following to it.
*Installed 5.00 M33-4 with Hellcat's flasher through ChickHEN.
*Net-updated to 5.00 M33-6.
*Installed 5.50 GEN-A from psp-hacks.
*Net-updated, thinking it would go to GEN-B, but going to OFW 5.51.
*Cursed soundly.
*Made a soft-pandora battery, and a MMS (rains mms maker, DC8)
*Flashed back to M33-4, then M33-6, then GEN-A, then GEN-B
*Installed some POPS games and NesterJ.
So, last night, playing something, she says the screen went kind of a soft blue. She thought it overheated or something, so she turned it off and fell asleep. Now it won't turn on. I've tried:
*Another pandora battery and mms
*No battery
*No battery or Memory stick
With a normal battery, nothing happens until I hold the power switch, then the green light comes on. With ac or a pandora, the green light comes on. Nothing else. I've tried counting button preses to shutdown, but nothing happens. Both batteries work, and the MMS maker is good, because I just used the battery and MMS maker (different sticks) to reflash my psp to 5.00 M33-4 (needed MS speed hack more than PSN)
So, any ideas?
Thanks for the response, but I have tried without memory stick, without battery, without either, and wifi on/off. No dice. Also, I can't try the recovery manager (one of my favorite features) because the screen doesn't come on, no backlight either.
Also, if it matters, the MMS I tried first was messed up (as in, won't start, not b0rking), So I made a new one (DDCv7 loading Hellcat's 1.60) and it won't load either. I tested it on another psp and it does work.
Also, the MMS Maker linked in your sig is broken, the author has deleted their tutorials.
You will need to download all 3 parts extract Univer_File.part1 only. Part2 and Part3 will automatically extract with Part1 creating the complete folder.
go to the easy installer folder
start the easy installer start.exe
choose your language and drive letter
type 1 and enter to continue to the Pandora installer
type y then enter
type 4 press enter
type y and enter you now have a completed Pandora installer
this is for the phat 1000 and slim 2000 series not the bright 3000 series.
now go to the add_on folder and drag psp folder and 150.pbp folder to the root of your memory card if it asks you to over write choose yes to all.
now put the Pandora battery in psp then the MMS memory card you just made.
you should now be able to go through the process of installing the MMS
BACK UP YOUR MEMORY STICK BEFORE DOING THIS. OR ALL GAME DATA ETC WILL BE LOST
