You have a full brick if you can't go into recovery menu.

The only option is Magic Memory Stick and Pandora Battery.

Do you have a friend or relative with a Custom Firmware PSP?

Actually your PSP is bricked (you deleted flash0 files) so technically it don't have crap on it.

You can use your friends PSP to create a Pandora Battery + Magic Memory Stick.

Use this guide HERE to make the Magic Memory Stick + Pandora Battery.

To protect your friends PSP battery I would suggest using your Battery in his PSP when converting it to a Pandora. You can recover the Battery back to normal when you have finished installing the custom firmware to your PSP (Make sure you follow the guide word for word. Make sure you follow the part for backing up the battery EEPROM as showen in the guide as well after you have installed the custom firmware to PSP make sure you recover the battery with EEPROM as showen in the guide before formating the Magic Memory Stick).

After recovering the Battery and updating the PSP to 4.01 M33-2 you can format the Magic Memory Stick and your PSP will be back to normal use.

Myself and the previous poster frikin said your only option is Pandora Battery + Magic Memory Stick. So stop asking if there is any other way.

If your friend no longer has custom firmware then your only option is hard modding your battery to a Pandora Battery or order a Datel Tool Battery off the Internet. Once you have done 1 of those 2 options you can use the guide above to create the Magic memory Stick with your friends PSP.

In order to convert your battery to a Pandora Battery you need to run homebrew. In order to run that homebrew you need a PSP running CFW. This is the reason you will need to hardmod or buy a Datel tool battery. Because your PSP is fully bricked and your friends PSP is running Official firmware now.

If you want to Hardmod the battery do a serch for it. There are plenty of guides out there.

He only has no IDstorage. I am sorry mate but unless you can restore an old NAND dump of yours, then you are screwed. as for the backlight when trying to acsess the recovery menu, press the brightness button and your screen will be slightly fuzzy, but you will be able to see the recovery menu.


(+[_]+) the best console!

if any one wants their PsP haxxord, and they live in the dunfermline area, PM me
