Help I've sort of bricked my psp!

[Lolth]

Damn! So I have no hope left but the modchip?
If so does anyoe know any cheap ones?
Also how easy is it to install?

[BL4Z3D247]

it's a b!tch to install(u can bring it to a electronics store) and it's cheaper than getting a new psp that's for sure(plus u get a new psp what fw u think ur gunna get) AND this is a huge and, u'll beable to unbrick ur psp at anytime and i believe u can jump fw to fw

not really, you can do it all the time in britain. You must pester the staff enough. I got the better white psp which has a decent d-pad and £30 in money because i paid more for my other psp.

You think I could get away with it? I mean I bought it from amazon bout exactly a year ago.

Thats why I only mess with devhook emulated firmware. I dont see the point in aestheticallay enhancing the psp firmware 1.5. Its just too risky. I just go as far as custom firmware to be on the safe side incase i ever need recovery mode. At least with devhook you can fix bricks by replacing the files.

It's only risky if you do a straight downgrade from 2.71. If you did your downgrade from any other version of Firmware (or if you upgraded from 1.00) then it's perfectly safe. Things like this is why people who have downgraded from 2.71 should upgrade to 2.00 and then downgrade back to 1.50 again before messing around with anything.

try auto-booting the 1.5 umd then hit home. then upgrade and downgrade again and u should be set.

Though I love homebrew, I'd rather be able to never play homebrew but have a fully working psp again, is it possible to take my psp to sony to have it fixed? If so is it coeverd by warranty/ how much would I have to pay?
Unless someone has a better (cheaper) idea?
