It is as good as a pretty brick. You cannot do anything on it, unless you have a modchip or custom firmware, which you obviously did.

(+[__]%) put this psp in ur siggy. just do it.

If the PSP is completely bricked, why would it even display an error message telling you to contact technical support. Every bricked PSP I've seen, you turn it on, get a green light, but no display whatsoever. Is there a software that you could run from USB Mode, that could take priority over the PSP boot to let you modify the flash0? I know that there is a specific file in the flash0 that tells the PSP the boot order, so can we edit it to boot into USB Mode before loading the XMB?

@Crazykid3: this one is a brick because instead of missing flash0 files, this one had corrupt flash0 files. both are completely useless. and i suppose you could, but i dont think its nesessary with modchips and custom firmwares. its a good rainy day project.

Modchips are difficult (to say the least) to soder onto a PSP motherboard. Corruption in the flash0 can destroy the boot order. You corrupt, erase, or even modify that order, it won't even get to Recovery Mode, let alone the XMB. This is why most readme.txt's on CXMB tell you never to touch the "kn" folder under any circumstances. This is why I'm looking for a software that could be loaded directly into the flash via USB. If you could change the boot order to USB Mode first, you could modify the flash without needing a Recovery Mode.

but for ur psp to run on usb mode, it has to first open its usb port. this is usually done within the system itself. so for what u want to happen, it seems slightly tedious to happen

What I'm looking for would be within the Firmware itself. There has to be a way to install the USB driver onto the flash and make it so it cannot be deleted, modified, or anything. We could make it read-only, but is there a way to make is so, even if you select all/delete, it won't delete the driver?

Unless you have a Recovery mode, a RSOD is a brick, it's just alive enough to be able to actually tell you it's bricked, so very kind of it :)
