Strange Brick

Hey guys,

Was following a guide here on qj how to make the ultimate pandora battery and was in the process of upgrading firmware to 5.0 as per the guide (it had heap of different variations on how to upgrade depending on current CFW). Yes I did have my battery fully charge in the AC adaptor in and all the rest of the usual stuff. About 32% into the upgrade psp died. Tried turning it back on, no go. Tried booting in recovery mode, no go. Tried using my mates jigkick battery and pandora still no boot. Only light that comes on is the Green power light. Any suggestions? I haven't seen this before and haven't heard about it happening, scoured google for half the day on this problem and no solution still. I was running CFW M33 3.8.

Thank you in advance

this might seem basic and/or irrelevant, but i remember when using my Pandora i had to hold the left trigger when booting with it.. plus you need the memory stick to be inserted first with no AC adapter or battery.. and THEN you insert the Pandora with the left trigger held.. keep holding it until the menu loads..

if that doesnt help, i apologise for getting your hopes up. there was no mention of the left trigger in your post so i thought id mention it.. plus im not too cluey on how it all works, so again i apologise if im wrong..

look on your memorystick in \TM\config.txt

Mine is a bit bloated

LEFT = "/TM/DC8GEN/ipl.bin";

RIGHT = "/TM/DC8m33/ipl.bin";

LTrigger = "/TM/DC5/ipl.bin";

Down = "/TM/150_340/ipl.bin";

Up = "/TM/pandora.bin";


NOTHING = "NAND";

WHen you look at yours you can figure out what button to hold to bring up the pandora menu.

Make sure you remove the battery, then reseat it and right away hold the button down until you get to a menu.
