Hi There All.
Seeking some help with my PSP . It's PSP2001 model running 5.50 Dgen-2 custom firmware . What seems to be happening is the following . a) whenever I go to make changes in the XMB the PSP freezes , b) when I launch ISOS from the memory stick , the games get stuck on the PSP White Logo Screen . On both occasions to stop the process , I have to physcially take out the battery . I know it's not a memory card issue as I have a second PSP running 5.50 Dgen-3 and the games launch on that one quite fine . A couple of 'reputable' fixers of PSP's in the area who are aware of my issue have basically said you have nothing more than a rather expensive doorstop . Can this PSP be recovered ? Additionally , I have tried to go into recovery mode , tried to flash , etc , but on most occasions the damn thing freezes again . I've also gone into the VSH menu but the changes but any change I make there goes away after the device freezes . Any help would be most welcome .

It could be a halfbrick, try getting your hands on a pandora battery and create a magic memory stick.
Xbox 360: On my fourth console, first one rrod 3 times, second one sold at ebay because of no HDMI, third one rrod during flashing (supposedly killed that drive), fourth one up and working on LT 3.0
PSP: Slim&Lite 2004 model with 6,60 ME v1.3
PS3: 60 Gig Model with the latest official firmware for going online and a modified case for better cooling
PSVita: Need some games for it, just bought an 8 GB memory card at ebay, awaiting a Photofast addapter for MicroSD-cards.
