I hope this is a simple error i did x-x;;

Well my friend asked me to put CFW on her slim psp. same silver slim as mines and i successfully put it on mines (after a few hours figuring it out). so i have the same MMS and pandora battery. i assumed that if i just put in the MMS then the pandora (it was at 90% charge btw) while holding down the L-button, then its supposed to go to the texts where you then install.

but the screen lights up but nothing goes on the screen. the light for the MS bay is reading the MMS but nothing. i found that odd so i took out the MMS and the pandora and put in her battery (the one that is not pandora) and her psp does the same thing. turns on, doesnt go to the main menu and it turns off in like 15 secs?

i found that odd so i stuck the MMS and pandora into mines thinking it would work but now my psp is now like hers. Cant boot into anything, cant go into recovery mode, nothing.

I opened up the pandora and re-scratched the area where you're supposed to scratch in Hercules' guide and tried it again, wont work.

Yes i know this is lengthy but other 'help topics' out there isnt as detailed as mines so...

edit: i borrowed a friends MMS and it went to "Press X to install 3.71 M33". so i press X and it freezes at 'Formatting flash1...'. it stays there for like over 4 minutes. could my psp be totally bricked? =/

anyone have any suggestions? could it be the MMS thats causing the psp not to boot? is it the battery? i dunno what to do, none of my RL friends could help me so i turn to you guys.

1.take the battery out and plug in the charger.
2.start it up and turn it off when everything has loaded up and unplug charger.
3.start her psp again wit pandora and mms.
