Whats up guys I tryed to use my pandora's and universal v3 into a psp and guess what happend?? LOL let me explain.....

1.- I used pandora's v3 and it stopped on "formatting Flash1...."

example:

Loading updater modules........OK
Formatting flash0.....OK
Formatting flash1.....

and it does not pass from there and shuts off the psp

2.- I tried pandora's 1.50 downgrader too and this is what it shows

example:

the aggreement message comes up, i press x an it shows this

Formatting flash0... done
Formatting flash1... done
Formatting flash2... done
Format OK - continuing in a moment....

then

Loading psar to ram..... done.
Version 1.50
Creating directories..... done.
Writing ipl.... done
Writing files 100%
Updating registry.....cannot write system.dreg

and it shuts off the psp

I turned the psp on and the blue screen that says "Setting information is corrupted. Press O to repair and restore default settings."

I pressed O and it restarts to the same blue screen again and again and again each time i press O.

any help or information about this problem???

I used my both pandora's 1.50 and universal v3 on another PSP and it does fine.
 
Refer to THIS post here and see if you have a fake memory stick.

hahaha I tried another memory "new" purchased at target 256mb sandisk pro duo wanna see my receipt??? :w00t: :wink: joke

same problem though.

I followed the guide correctly like 4 times and i tried the unbrick on another psp and it is working on the other but this one still doing the same.

have you had this problem before??
 
I have a solution for you but...I am a bit too busy to post it today. Possibly tomorrow.

Sorry for leaving you hanging, but I wanted to give you hope, at least.
 
I believe situations like this warrant double posting, so I will.

Problem(s):
Pandora stops writing/is unable to write to flash1 (read: system.dreg).

Possible cause(s):
The issue(s) outlined above are most likely due to a corrupted flash (in lamens terms).

Possible Solution(s):

Before any flashing solution is provided, a disclaimer should be stated, so here's one:

Disclaimer: By following the advice written herein by "EvilSeph" or another eXophase.com representative, you agree that no other party - which include eXophase.com, eXophase.com representatives and staff, and cory1492 - may be held responsible for loss or damages that may occur as a result of following the advice provided.

If you are not an above average PSP user then you may want to not proceed. I repeat, if you do not know what you are doing, I advise you to NOT proceed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solution 1:
Download cory1492's Cleaned NAND dump here.

Take a few minutes to read its respective readme/documentation BEFORE proceeding.

Use Pandora or Universal v3. to flash the NAND dump to your PSP. DO NOT FLASH WRITE TO IDSTORAGE.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solution 2:
Download jas0nuk's ELF menu 0.2a for Pandora/Despertar_Cementario v3 (w/full hw ident) here.
Download cory1492's nandTool v0.2 here.

Take a few minutes to read their respective readmes/documentation BEFORE proceeding.

Replace ms0:/kd/resurrection.elf on your magic memory stick with the one included in jas0nuk's ELF menu release, so the PSP loads it when you insert the Pandora battery & memory stick, and it shows a list of ELFs inside the ms0:/elf folder (it will give a warning and shutdown if the folder doesnt exist or there are no ELFs inside it).

Place cory1492's nandTool into ms0:/elf.

Run cory1492's nandTool using jas0nuk's ELF menu that should now boot up instead of the original Pandora menu.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hopefully my instructions were clear enough to follow and this fixes your problem.

If not, reply and we'll keep at it. :)
 
for Solution 1 it doesn't say what or where to put the file Solution 1: clean_part_fatpsp.flash
can someone plz tell me?
My FAT PSP won't turn on or go to recovery menu. and tried using Pandora but stops at flash1 and turns off.
 
A read me should be included.

TBH i would use solution 2, as pointed out i think you need to re-partion Lflash.

This is why you are stuck.

Follow the link in his post, although NANDtool 0.4 is released now - Same tool, just newer.
