hello everyone, i was fooling around with x-flash and i changed the opening sound and now my psp wont boot properly, it's not totally bricked because it still turns on, it will even boot games that only require 1.50 firmware, but once i go back into the menu, it gives me the settings are corrupt notice, when i press circle, it just comes right back up (see video) SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!!!

video of my problem: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBibKiug0rk][/url]

i saw on another forum where someone may have fixed this but i didnt understand...

so if u can still boot games and whatnot why not upgrade to 2.00 and then downgrade back to 1.5. Or change the version of your psp to say 1.00 and then re-flash 1.5 with the 1.5 update eboot.

it will only do the autoboot into the game, i cant select anything from the menu i.e. system update, when i try and quit the game, it gives me the blue screen again.

Well it looks like the VSH files in flash0: are corrupted and thats why he can't access the XMB. I think the only way he could fix this is by somehow running an update from a UMD without going to the XMB. He could've used the GTA exploit to run a flasher but that game requires a higher firmware, so thats out of the question. So I dont think theres anything you could do except get a modchip.

Really? Are you sure you didn't install Dark_alex's POC without realizing what it was? Because no 1.5 PSP could do that without having Dark_Alex's POC installed.
