bricked!

**vampprince40** · February 4th, 2007, 22:25

so i'm another victim of dumbassness. downgrading from 2.71, rebooted, ac came unplugged. still have to try a bestbuy with my 2 year warranty. but the ms blinks, the green does NOT turn off on its own, and the backlight turns on but no screen/ no response. any suggestions?

If the XMB doesn't show up, then you have landed up with a brick - even if the memory stick light flashes.

I had a brick yesterday with the custom firmware by replacing the top menu plugin with a new one overwriting the existing one. Thank you custom firmware

well even though i personally dont really agree with it, the trick is to buy a new one from walmart and put the brick in the box and return it with the new bill.
