PLEASE Help. I did use the full downgrader 2.71full and I had version 2.71 everything went fine the red screen. I waited till the end, did not touch anything. When I tried to turn it back on nothing comes up the power green light stays on but black screen. Please tell me what to do.
Thanks a lot.

if you had that , it was definitely a cause

to keep it short a bricked PSP is about as useful as a brick, it is impossible to unbrick unless you have a modchip (which doesnt work w/ ta-082) or a custom firmware (only 1.5)

It is more than i though. nearly $95 with shipping but it is alot cheaper than other places

Im sure you will be happier with 1.5 : D

Or you can take the other road..

return to either walmart or costco and then tell me u bought it from there (i think theyre the only places that give back things w/o a reciept). put ur bricked psp in the psp box and excahnge it for a full refund. i remeber a few ppl did this and it worked. yea it is a "bad" way to do it but hey u get ur mo0ney back.
