you want 3.71 official sony firmware? if yes download it and put it in:

X:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE/(update file called EBOOT.PBP goes here)

But I don't recommend official firmware, i recommend cusom firmware like 3.71 M33-3.

You need 3.52 M33-3 or 3.52 M33-4 in order to unbrick

Yeah, you can brick but its very rare. Just follow the instrction accordingly.

Don't ask me, I've never used the guide ask on the original thread. And NO don't put an official firmware in the update folder nad then run it from tehre or else you'll be on Sony official firmware. Ask befoe you do anything, mate.

make sure you do every step. And before you try anything, ask because you can brick your PSP. Be careful!

In the Recovery Menu (hold R while turning on PSP) go to Configuration -> Game Folder Homebrew you should change that to 3.52 kernel
