its not dangerous if you know what you are doing and if you have the recovery mode.

Did you replace the flash0 with your flash1 or something??

All I can say is bad karma for tricking people you are dark_alex...

#1: 2.81 -> 3.03 -> 3.11 DoH (no more :D)
#2: 1.00 -> 1.5 -> 3.03oe-c
#3: Ceramic white 1.5 -> 3.03oe-c -> 3.40oe
Whatever happens, happens...

Thats what you get for not reading the instructions, or a guide or something...Much less doing some research first!! I dont understand why people think they can just start F*'ng with their themes,and the internal memory of the PSP and not even bother looking at the readme file that comes with a majority of these themes anyway!! When it says specifically to backup your flash0 folder before making any changes....And why were you messing with flash1 anyway?? There isn't anything you need to put in there-flash1 just retains your settings (like clock, and time zone, etc...)...Dark_Alex Indeed....

is the guy who impersonates the great software programmer using 1.5?

if so, then he is totally screwed.

if he didnt know how to get into recovery, and someone had to tell him, then he must have used some form of homebrew or USBSSS to access the flash. or in this case the WRONG flash..... lol.

you have to be in a big hurry, or have no idea what your doing to brick while flashing a theme. you shouldve gotten 3.40 OE-A. that way this wouldnt have happened.

sorry!!

WOW DAX is having trouble with a psp!

Man I thought you would know your way around a psp especially with your CFW on it

I have no idea if this is against the rules but I think he should be banned for making people think he is Dark_AleX

Wait I take that back
Anyone that actually thinks he really is needs to be banned...Ya thats more like it
