yes, i try to downgrade it to 1.5 then when i restart it, power led is on but only showing black screen and my computer does not detect it anymore.

that sounds like a brick.
you need to be able to turn the psp on and selected USB before
your computer will detect it.
Have you tried pressing the brightness button.

junhua90 · 09-19-2007, 07:37 AM

most likely your PSP is bricked.

i already tried the brightness button, turn the psp on and insert the usb cable still not working. if its bricked the pandoras battery will help? i seen it one of the website how to build the pandoras battery but it said you need to connect the psp in your computer.

yes you will need another psp with 1.5 or custom firmware
to make Pandora's battery

yes. Pandoras battery works... but u need to prepare them before ur PSP is bricked. or else u cant make them with a bricked PSP. you only can make them with a working PSP (ofw 1.50 or custom fw).

perhaps you can ask ur friends anyone has the pandoras battery? or u can try lending a PSP from someone u know to make it. all u need is a MS DUO PRO w/ magicgate (at least 256mb) and an extra sony PSP battery.

i have read many threads talking about downgrade. if u do not want to brick ur psp after downgrading, u need to dumpflash in the psp. i don't really know whats that suppose to mean, you can go look it up.

i wonder where my post went.im sure i posted a reply here and its gone.anyways just to restate my post youll need to make a pandora using another psp which is fully working with fw 1.5 or cfw and a good battery as jigkick.good luck

if he bricked his psp downgrading i cant imagine what would happen if he tried to make a pandora battery... gl though

xayofoolx · 09-19-2007, 09:20 AM

I agree with you there soonk.

theres always the method of looking on craigslist in your area, and meet up with someone that will unbrick a psp. search for like psp mod, or downgrade, or unbrick. then just email the ppl and ask them.
