How did you manage to brick it? Unfortunately there is no way to restore the firmware on a 3000 and likely won't be for the foreseeable future, since Sony locked out Pandora.

<p>lol, because it says clearly, WILL BRICK 3000.</p>
<p>well, i guess it doesnt really matter, i mean, i still have my mp3 player. damn. $230 down the drain.

So you tried to install custom firmware?

 

[jkmit]

<p>lol, ya. it didnt sy it woud brick it up, it said potential risk.</p>
<p>any ideas wat i could do wit it now?</p>

 

[x3sphere]

Try sending it to Sony and see if they'll fix it? Since the warranty is up, they'll probably charge you, but it's worth a shot.

But tell them you tried to update to 5.50 and the power ran out or something - Always produces a brick even on 1000, 2000 psps. Might be able to blag it for free.

 

[jkmit]

<p>blag?</p>

 

[jkmit]

<p>how do i send to sony?</p>

 

[x3sphere]

Call up their customer service and tell them your PSP is bricked. Obviously don't admit you tried installing custom firmware but just say it wouldn't turn on after an update. That's what he meant by blagging it. Then, they'll let you know what to do from there.
