Despertar del Cementerio v4 Universal Unbricker


Features

- Installer now checks if user has a custom theme installed, and ask him to disable it before running the program.
- the PSN DRM file in flash2 (act.dat) is now backuped during ms creation and restored in the unbrick.
- flash2 is now formatted too.
- Now installs 3.80 M33-5 instead of 3.71 M33-3.

Original ConsoleSpot release thread + Instruction

Tutorial

Download: DCv4

Despertar del Cementerio v4 has been designed to install 3.80M33-5. If you do not want 3.80, you will have to stick to v3, which installs 3.71M33-3.

You can download it here: DCv3

These are the latest releases of Pandora applications and work perfectly on 3.80 M33 and 3.90 M33 firmwares. I elaborate that instructions should be followed to the core.

This for those who have absolutely no custom firmware at hand. This is a tutorial, but Pandora section is incomplete without this. This requires you to have a real steady arm and willingness to accept that things may go wrong. REMEMBER THAT Li-ION BATTERIES ARE VERY EXPLOSIVE IF NOT HANDLED CAREFULLY. You may also render the battery useless.

NOTE: These methods apparently do not work or newer batteries, so get yourself some older batteries.
================================================== ===============



Making Switchable PSP-Slim Pandora battery {RECOMMENDED}

Following this, you will have a working and switchable Pandora-Battery
for your slim PSP.
Just use your switch now to choose the function of it!

modified from original comments

Step one:
Open your slim battery. I have used a guitar pick to do it.
Just slide the pick or whatever you use along the join between the upper
and lower half of the battery while breaking it open carefully.

Step two:
You will see a small PCB.
Gently bend it back like in the picture below.
Be careful with that, as the battery is connected with the board
by two thin foils.



Step three:
Now you have to solder thin wires to the two small contacts
i have marked in the picture with red rectangles.
My wires are from a 80-conductor IDE cable. I don't think that
you can take much thicker wires because space is very rare.
Don't leave your soldering iron on the contacts too long,
as this will destroy the parts. At this step you also have to
solder a very thin on/off switch to the other end of the
wires (blue rectangle). I got mine from a broken usb memory stick, at which it.



Step four:

You have to cut away some plastic from the lower side of
the battery to route the wires and to make a hole for the swich.
I marked the spots where i cut it away red
in the blue box.



Step five:

Now gently bend the PCB back to it's normal place and
route the cables and the switch to their final location.



Step six:

Now fix the switch to stay in it's place with some superglue or duct tape.
I would recommend duct tape first, to correct something, if you did
something wrong. The switch mustn't overhang, cause else
the battery will not fit in your psp anymore.


Step seven and eight:

Also cut away some plastic at the upper half of the battery
at the same position where you cut it away on the lower half, so
that you can reach the switch inside. You can see in the pic
how much you have to cut away approximately.

After that put the halves back together again and fix them with
some superglue or duct tape.

This guide and tute has been written based on a PSP Slim PSP-s110 battery. For phat psp users, this is the connection that must be made.

A Poor Man's Battery
The following “poor man’s” hardware guide to creating a Pandora Battery is aimed towards the non-handy man type. With that said you may potentially render your battery completely useless or cause another unforeseen disaster. Proceed with caution: (Thanks to James L for the guide.)

Unfortunately, I didn’t have the essential tools, and the soldering iron didn’t seem to want to work (possibly because it had solder on it). So I found a small way around using the “essential tools”. All you need is something that’s small enough to fit under the pin, a cutting utensil, and optionally, tape. Non-conductive tape, so NO DUCT TAPE!

Just pry open the battery by pinching the edges (with your teeth or something to that effect).

Once inside, this is optional, but I recommend it. Cut one of the batteries terminals, preferably, the one with a solid connection cable. One is solid, one is a flexible metal. Cutting the flexible one is fine, but it cause the battery to short, a problem I’m currently facing, every once in awhile, causing restarts. I’m guessing it’s because of the flexible material moving around inside the battery when the PSP is moved. Make sure to bend the metal GENTLY so that they cannot touch while you proceed.

Then, using your pry tool, make sure to get it just under the right pin, as seen in the diagrams. Preferably, get something that can wedge diagonally in the pin, then twist it.

Tape the battery terminal back together if you cut it, once you’ve safely removed the pin.

Put the battery back together. Don’t worry, it won’t snap together, thus, more tape! Wrap tape, and yes, you CAN you duct tape here, around the battery to hold it together. Scotch tape is recommended, because it’s not bulky, so it doesn’t prevent the battery from going in smoothly.

And that’s all there is to it. I was going to attempt to make a switchable service battery (even though this is possible VIA software, but it would have been cool to have), but the pin broke COMPLETELY off. Oh well.

Recovery

************************************************** ************************

Recovery from Semi-Brick
If you got a semi brick while installing a theme or a homebrew, then first try to re-flash Flash0 with YOUR OWNFlash0 backup. Use downloadable Flash0 only and only to replace files that came with the Theme. REFLASHING THE ENTIRE FLASH WILL COMPLETELY BRICK THE PSP
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX


GUIDE: How to Recover semi-brick PSP SLIM/Phat

Original Thread by larrylje
Consolespot Release by Siik & gman17

Recovery

This guide is intended for PSP SLIM users. But it also can be used for semi-bricked FAT PSP's as well.

As of now there is no other way to recover a semi-bricked PSP SLIM without using a Pandora Battery + Universal Unbricker.

I have created this guide to help those that might not have a second PSP running custom firmware. This will guide you through creating a Pandora Battery + Magic Memory Stick using your semi-bricked PSP SLIM.

Adding my personal favorites. There are simply too many themes to list here. So please do not be offended in case I miss out your theme. On second thought, that would be injustice. Hence only the latest themes will be listed here. Especially for firmware 3.80 and 3.90.

1. Make a backup of your flash0.

2. Open VSH/Resources folder and DRAG AND OVERWRITE the files from the Resource folder of the theme.

3. Similarly, drag and overwrite the contents of VSH\Module folder using files in the Module folder of the theme.

*If Module is not visible, then click on Tools in the Menu bar and select folder options.(Vista owners, select Organise--> Folder And Search Options)
* Under View tab, select "Show hidden Folder and Files" and uncheck "Hide known extensions of file type" and "Hide Operating System Files".

4. If you get a "No space Error" then you can safely delete the following from the flash. Nothing Else

Step 1: If you want Japanese/Korean/Chinese fonts, skip this step. For 99% of people this is the only step needed to be taken.

Go to x:/font. Copy and paste ltn9.pgf twice, this makes two copies of the same file. Delete jpn0.pgf, and rename one of the copies to jpn0.pgf.

To All those who are anticipating the completion of this thread, I'm Sorry this is taking time, But I have a exam coming up and I come online only for 5-10 minutes at a time. I promise, that this will be done over the weekend.
