Default [Tutorial] How To Recover From Semi-Bricks Without Pandora/Flash0 Back-Up *Updated*


Introduction:
Do you have a Semi-Bricked PSP, and have no clue how to fix it without Pandora or a Flash0 Back-Up?
Well in this Tutorial I'll show you how to recover your Semi-Bricked PSP back to 3.71M33 or 4.01M33.
NOTE: If you want to upgrade from a previous Custom Firmware you can also use this Tutorial!


Will It Work On My PSP?

a fresh 3.71-M33-4 and a 4.01-M33-2 on the following setups:

3.02-OE *) -- on Fat PSP
3.40-OE -- via TimeMachine on Fat PSP
3.60-M33 -- via TimeMachine on Slim PSP
3.71-M33 -- on Fat and Slim PSP
4.01-M33 -- on Fat and Slim PSP
4.01-M33 -- started via DDCv6 (kinda pointless to install a 4.01 then,
but hey, can't hurt to try )
1.50 -- on Fat PSP, using the 1.50 build of the flasher
^^ yes, that reads "one point five", and yes, I flashed directly to 4.01-M33-2 from there

*) Note: On lower CFWs (early OEs, mostly) you may get warnings during
3.71 installation regarding assignments of flash1:
This is normal under these FW versions, no need to worry.
The program will disable formatting flash1 in that case, so
everything should be fine.

Requirements:
PSP with CustomFirmware (CAN NOT BE FULLY BRICKED)
At least a 128MB Memory Stick
PC and USB/CardReader
WinRAR v3.80


Tutorial:
1. Download Hellcat's Recovery Flasher v1.32
NOTE: Rename the file to "Hellcat's Recovery Flasher" for easy access

2. Find the file and right click on it, then click "Extract to Hellcat's Recovery Flasher\"


3. Go into the "Hellcat's Recovery Flasher" and copy the "RECOVERY" folder and paste it in the "GAME" folder of the PSP. (Keep the recovery folder open)


4. Now download the 3.71 and 4.01 EBOOTS

5. Copy the EBOOTS, and paste them into the "RECOVERY" Folder


6. Now disconnect the PSP from "Toggle USB"

7. And press "Run Program PSP/GAME/RECOVERY/EBOOT.PBP"

8. Once the Application launches choose the option "Backup Flash content"

9. After it is done backing up your Flash content you need to choose one of the two options below:
Quote:
1) "Flash new 4.01-M33-2" *RECOMMENDED*
2) "Flash new 3.71-M33-4"
