My PSP has been acting pretty strange it seems that it turns on half the opening screen turns on but then it just freezes and tats anoying. I think its because i flashed it. But i used generic flasher and put my rco of the skull opening thing then it flashed through then i presses triangle and then the screen went black and i took the batery out because nothing else was working and then it just keep doing a quarter of the opening thing. Is this a Brick? a semi-brick? or none of these a is fixable? thanks or thanks anyway in advance.

it's a semi-brick but those can only be fixed in cfw's by overwriting the flash with a firmware dump of their choice (or running the update from recovery mode)

yes, i did flash it through generic flasher (for the wave backgrounds and icons and stuff). but... it completed the flashing then when i went triangle and frooze black screen then i took the batery out and booted it up again then boom! freezes half way through the startup screen thing. it may be because i put tat skeliton wave thing in the waves folder on my PSP generic flasher folder but it just didn't work and decided to semi-brick it i think.
But waves should go in the waves folder.
