Don't start too many threads. Stick to the one you made earlier.
Also remove your email address.

Find your answer by google searching 'Unbricking a fully bricked PSP'



PSP: 5.00 M33-6
===============
Nintendo DS: R4 v1.18

use this
1st Can be made with ANY psp, slim or fat, regardless of firmware (as long as u have USB access),Will work with Card Reader too.
Must use memstick bigger than 32mb, 64MB-4GB memsticks work great(in other words, dont use 32MB card or any card bigger than 4GB), watch out for FAKE memsticks!!!! Such as EBAY...
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NGOH440I
-download file.
-note: Will not work on VISTA
*extract the file into your desktop:
*Open README 1st folder
*highlight and copy MSINST and MSPFORMAT folder
*open My Computer
*Left Click the C: drive once (Note: if you double click, it will open C: drive)
*Now RIGHT Click on C:\ drive and PASTE
==============
*now you need to ENABLE USB MODE on psp
*make note of the psp drive letter
==============
*Open Cmd window ( Start > RUN > CMD )
*Type in the following command "CD C:\" (note: with-out quote mark) HIT enter
*it should take you to -----> C:\>
*now type "CD MSPFORMAT"(note: with-out quote mark)
*it should take you to -----> C:\MSPFORMAT\
*type the following command "mspformat.exe X" ( where X=psp drive letter) note: NO quotation
*Press Y to continue
*it should say "Drive succesfully formatted, and partition moved."
*disable USB mode
*close cmd window
*remove the memory stick and re-insert back
*re-enable USB mode
*Now go back to the Desktop where you extracted those files earlier
*Choose the Pandora Folder you want to make ( original(phat ONLY!!!, will downgrade to 1.5) or despertar(slim or phat, will flash 3.71-2M33 to either)
*Once you choose the folder you want, dbl click and open it
*Select all and COPY
*open the psp memory stick and PASTE
*go back to CMD window.
*Type in the following command "CD C:\" (note: with-out quote mark) HIT enter
*it should take you to -----> C:\>
*now type "CD MSINST"(note: with-out quote mark)
*it should take you to -----> C:\MSINST\
*type the following command "msinst.exe X msipl.bin" (again where X=psp drive letter) note: NO quotation
*It should ask you " Are You Sure ? [Y]
*Press Y and Hit ENTER
*The last line should say " Write MS BOOT CODE "

thats it your done..

Insert memcard into psp, insert battery AND hold L trigger to boot to DCv3, from there, press [] to dump nand*. When its done it shuts off psp, restart and load DCv3 again.
Now press x to flash 3.71M33.
X to shutdown, remove service battery and boot like normal with good battery or AC plugged in.
Install update 4 or upgrade to 3.80M33 or 3.90M33 with proper updates.
NAND DUMP TUT/INFO...

BTW. All credit goes to Mexi_chino (for files) and Da.Milenko (for guide)
SERVICE BATTERY MUST BE CHARGED MORE THAN 75% FOR MENU TO LOAD!!!
*NOTE:You may not need to dump your nand after, i didnt and it still worked.

Not my soloution Credit to:osnap1584 of psp-hacks.com

Pandora: 3.90 m33, dn to 3.80 m33-5 custom halo xmb theme

(Made the battery myself with pair of scissors and a lighter: worked but wouldnt recommend it!)
