My PSP is bricked! :(.

IronX, did you say you were at 3.02oe-a then upgrade to oe-b? or was it 2.71Se-c?

IronX outlined the steps in page 3 of this thread.

[IronX]

I was first on 2.71se-c and upgraded to 3.02oe-a, then to 3.02oe-b.... then downgraded to 1.5 and upgraded back to 3.02oe-a, and during the upgrading to 3.02oe-a it crashed.

should have used a 2 gig or less ms 1.5 kernel dosent have 4 gig ms support

I've been using a Sandisk 4GB Memory Stick since September, had no trouble at all using it with my 1.5 PSP, and no problems using it when I upgraded to 3.02OE-B a few days ago.

The thing is, I could install the 3.02 propperly in 2.71SE-C..... but it still didn't want to read my stuff on my new ms, only some video files... so I downgraded to 1.5 and everything ran fine on my new 4gb ms..... so now when everything could be run, I upgraded again to 3.02... and it came to like 70% and shut off.... so it can't be that kernel or whatever it is doesn't like 4gb sticks, because the updater could read the 150.pbp all the way, but stopped at like half the way through 302.pbp.

So you successfully installed 3.02OE from 2.71SE-C, but had problems with that version reading your memory stick. You downgraded from 3.02OE to 1.5 and everything was then working ok. You then upgraded from 1.5 to 3.02OE and it failed part way through?

Does this mean there is an issue with going

2.71SE-C --> 3.02OE --> 1.5 --> 3.02OE?

Hope you manage to get something sorted.....

doesn't the updaters format the flash when installing?... well, think some do... anyway, it said in my previous update that it was formatting flash0 or something... donno..

[splodger15]

All updaters format the flash

From reading all the thread it really sounds like you have got a corrupted 1.50 bootstrap, obviously caused by the power cut whilst upgrading.
Sorry dude, I think it's bricked.

[pt9087]

lol, i dint read all of the posts. too many, Dude! i think ur psp maybe bricked, Sorry!

[IronX]

I know it's bricked (was just hoping for maybe a solution, as the recover menu works, but that's all).... and shouldn't have happened as I had a fully charged battery and the power cord inserted. I also follow the tutorial to the letter, like I did before when it worked.

I guess it's one of those moments when something just "hangs" till the psp shuts off.. that's what happened I think.
