psp unbricker?

sounds like it could work, but his process sounds a bit confusing, maybe if he would make steps then that would be easier in my opinion

and i think it has nothing to do with cfw, he stated he was running at 2.8 and bricked his psp by "trying" to put cfw on it, then he took his working psp copied the files of the unbricker onto the root of the MS and popped the MS in his brick and ran it, so i think it would be worth a shot for an unfortunate brick

na there was no unbricker he was running his friends 2.71 and he was going to downgrade using a dump of his firmware with cfw on it then it wouldnt reboot since the wi fi button was probably down (to boot into devhook via cfw) hence the ms flashing (this also explains why devhook booted when he put in his memory stick).

he panicked and thought it was a brick so he tried to run recovery mode and it workked since he had the same files as his cfw psp then he ran a clean 1.5 update eboot because he thought he had a brick.

I dont blame you for making a mistake he didnt put his post in paragraphs so I couldnt understand it first time.

dis happen to me using x-flash it had frozen my psp so i holded the the power button wen i turned it on my psp started but i had a black screen and my menory card light was flashin now and

You have a brick i would get it repaired (Modchip) or if you still have warranty use that and get it replaced

not that i do this alot or even at all, but in that post i was going off what i read on qj.net, there was more than one person saying it worked(not that it even matters :p) but ohh well i don't need an unbricker i have recovery mode :D(i'm sure others need one though :()

It's not really a true unbrick, there is no way that the psp would spontaneously launch the recovery elf off the memory stick without custom firmware being involved.

My guess is, is that he used a dump to do it, which included his custom firmware. (Probably caused the partial brick in the firstplace :rolleyes:)
