OK, I am trying to fix a psp that bricked whilst updating from a genuine UMD.

It had no custom firmware ad was upgrading to one of Sony's from a game UMD but bricked.

I have a pandora and created the memeory stick via this programme.

When i put the memory stick in the psp and the pandora only the green light comes on, nothing else, still black screen of death.

I have tried it in my sons psp which is running custom firmware which works fine, and still nothing comes up.

Is there any way to tell if the pandora i brought is faulty? as far as i know the memory stick has created properly.

Any help would be apreciated.

to make a magic mem stick...
All you need is a program called PspGrader, from google, it doesn't let me post the url or i wud have give it aswell.
don't need nothing else.
it makes your psp, 3.90m33-3
that is so far the best cfw out, because you can get a lot of things on it, and cxmb which is very cool.
if you dont want 3.90m33-3 then jus upgrade it to the latest firware out, at this moment in time 5.00m33-6

i created my pandora battery using official firmware 5.00

Hi, I have tried this in linux under Ubuntu hardy. I don't know if some one has already posted to this effect sorry if they have, I couldn't be arsed reading through all the posts (got to around page 5).

Unless you figure a way to run batch files (.bat) under wine, then it won't work under linux os. (ps I dont know if there is a way to run .bat's under wine and haven't looked too much into it, but I couldn't do it)

I had difficulties using a windows os in VMware (xVM virtual box etc.) under ubuntu due to USB problems. When the psp mode is changed (?) - i.e. half way through it seems to change its id(? or something) and it gets disconnected in windows under VMware. I had similar problem trying to flash/reset/recover pda`s and phones using windows in VMware under linux, when they change access mode or reset into recovery etc., the usb connection gets reset and the virtual machine needs the connection redefining, but that is usually only possible out of the vm and things got too frustrating and complex for me (could just be me over complicating things).

So, essentially, I couldn't do it, but that doesn't mean it can't be done. I reckon that someone with a bit more understanding or patience than me could do it, and possibly publish a guide (I cant find one and I was looking!).

Although I only didn't look too much into it because I went to my parents the day after my tool pandora battery arrived so just to save frustration and possible bricking I did it on their xp machine.

I'm aware that my battery has not been pandorized yet, but I get a similar error code when I try running "Pandora's Battery Creator" or "Pandora Firm. Installer" the error message is the same but the code is 8002014C.

Please keep in mind that this is the first time this PSP is getting modded, therefore it is still running on it's original 3.52 firmware, through out my research on the issue I have read that you must have a custom firmware in order to run Despertar del Cementerio, which would be kinda pointless for a "noob friendly" software, is this true? Unless being a "noob" means that you already have a basic skillset and knowledge on modding PSPs which in my case is null.

you do need cfw but its for noobs by its easy to do

Can I just ask is this software compatable with Windows Vista?
Also what would you say is the risk of breaking my psp during the process of making the magic memory stick out of ten.
Thanks and sorry for my spelling.

[mittens80]
