Anybody here got the scoop? Searching around the internet for information on this is making my head spin.

HELP! THIS IS CONFUSING >

I don't really know what any of that means but there are some videos on youtube that show you how to "unbrick a psp"

Yeah I have no idea what you're talking about.

Well duh, If either of you rockheads were masters of it, I wouldnt be having such a hard time now would I? ;D

sorry dude. the old gray gameboy is the only handheld I've ever had...

Same here. I had the one about the size of a 5" long 2X4. haha

You can unbrick by putting a psp battery that has been programed with some homebrew program by a homebrew compatible psp.

Thats kinda what I was seeing, but all of the places to get one of these look shady, and have horrible reviews.

I just nned someone who knows what they are doing that can just lay out the who what where and how .

I havent played my psp in 2 years, but just dug it out of the closet because I have been staying out of town for work and need distractions

Hell, I cant even get AVI movies to work.

Try a laxative, that will move a brick.

HILARIOUS!!!!!!

So what exactly does unbricking do?

allows me to use custom firmware (operating system) which in turn allows me to utilize "backup " copies of games directly from the memory card

TurboLax, for fast effective relief

the pandora tool battery is the standard.

would you then have to make said "backups" or could you procure them from "friends"?
