Damn... Ah well.. No gifts for the family this year... I need a new PSP!
Anyone wanna buy a bricked PSP? For spares or possible unbricking/Modchipping? lol
Or do SONY replace em? I only had it about 8 months.

you might get away with taking it back to where you bought it. With a bit of luck and some words like 'I dunno what happened to it Mr.Shop Clerk it just doesn't work any more'

Wipe your memory stick before you do that though

If you put it back to sony, I bet you'd get a non downgradable one back if anything.

Sounds like a plan! I'll give it a try and act stupid! And if they replace I might ask If they have any laying about that look like they may have been sat in the stockroom for a long time!

Some other people might have other stuff to try, but if you do go for a replacement let us know how you get on

Of course! Well thanks for the advice everyone! Im off to work a particularly boring night shift without a PSP to keep me company! lol

Tellmthe guy in the store where you got it you were running the official update through the network update, that way its all down to sony, lol.
They should give you a refurbished psp, probably gonna be a new firmware on it though, so take it to your friendly second hand shop and swap it for an older model, even if you cant at least sony fix ur psp for free, as long as your still in the 1 year warranty.hope this helps ya.

Tell us how it turns out. I was kind of looking into buying a bricked PSP but it would depend on the price. I am curious to see if there are any downgradeable PSP's out there though.
