yup, im the total idiot that accedentaly replaced a kn file. It was ****ed up... bad. And i was very mad. Now I am the poor kid telling my parents i broke my psp and i need $60 to fix it.(i found a new way). Just look up PSP service on ebay and someone in the uk will unbrick your psp without even opening it up. not like i havent or anything.

Deleting flash0 and 1 would brick it even more and not help at all.

ok so I know I screwed up...

i was changing around my top menus and I was running into some problems so I went to my backup folder to replace the whole resource folder and start over...

apparently i made a backup of the wrong flash0 folder?? because im seeing files in this folder that are different than the ones im used to seeing from editing the themes...

I need a copy of someone's original 3.40 OE-A flash0 and flash1 folders. If I could get those I might be ok. well maybe.. the next part has me worried.

I tried running the recovery program in the recovery menu AFTER placing the 1.5 eboot into the psp/game/recovery folder and renaming it UPDATE; the only thing that happened was the screen turned black for about 10 seconds then turned off. Now it wont boot to the sony screen anymore, I can only get into the recovery menu, but it seems to work normally, save the part I just mentioned.

so... yea. I really need that original 3.40 OE-A flash0 and flash1 folder if anyone could upload it and send me a link or pm me for my email I would worship the ground you walk on for at least a week.

please god dont be bricked...
and wtf man how lame is that? backing up the wrong flash0 folder... why are there even 2 with the same damned name anyways... ugh

if you put someone else's flash0 on any your psp it will brick it

well.. i think it might be too late for that lol. ever since I tried to run the recovery program from the recovery menu it's been bricked. what a great recovery... :rofl:

and to those of you wondering how I can laugh after bricking, it's called detatchment and buddha says its a good thing.

anyhoo.... anyone know what firmware a new retail psp has on board? i might just do the walmart swapparoo dance... buy a new one, return the old one in its box saying it doesnt work... voila new psp

has anyone tried this? feedback?
