Is my psp bricked???

Hello, maybe you all can help me with my slight problem. My homebrew psp is a 1.5. Whenever i try to play something or watch a umd or even listen to music from time to time, my psp will freeze, then it will shut off. I especially hate it when i try to play some good ol homebrew and it just freezes as im playing it (especially when using an emulator, i hate that!!)

I dont know whats going on but maybe someone can give me ideas here... im thinking about upgrading to 2.0 and downgrading again but i dunno if itll work.

Suggestions anyone?
Or is my psp bricked?

that sounds like a good idea, there is nothing to lose.

doesn't sound like a brick but the upgrading to 2.0 then using the MPH downgrader sounds like a good idea...thats what i would do atleast

not bricked- i every1 else is right.
a few files must be corrupt
upgrading fixes these then downgrading again would fix your problem.

You do not need to do any upgrading to 2.0, just use Xflash to fake your 1.5 firmware to 1.0 and then run the 1.5 update again. It will do the same thing and I have done this myself as well with no problems.
