sounds a bit stupid but you have got 75% battery and the cord in and the only way i know how to brick a psp is take out the battery and power cord while its upgrading, but if you take out the cord you still have the battery with 75% plus battery, so how do you brick your psp by accident leave replys here

You don't need 75%, it won't brick at 74%, the reason for this is they just want to make sure you have enough battery life for the down/upgrade.

On some if you hold down L at the start it will bypass battery check - I've done it with 10% battery life fine, though there was a power cord in at the time, to be safe.

You can brick a PSP by downgrading even while doing everything right, sometimes it just goes wrong...

And you can brick from messing with flash0 without a backup :P

It'll work fine, just if the Battery goes or it looses connection, you'll brick :(

Bricking is fun!!

I like to install firmware for people and then yank the battery out while its writing to flash...The look of terror on their face is priceless when they try to power up the psp and all they get is a blank screen...

Goes, like as in "dies", sometimes batteries can just randomly stop working...

No electronics work 100% of the time, ever.
