    I saw this mod here
    and decided to try it out,but i flashed the systemctrl.prx(1.50) instead of the (2.71) one so now my psp is semi bricked,it brings up the recovery and i goto start the recovery and the psp just sits for few secs then switchs off.
    So i was was wondering if any one had the correct files to flash systemcrtl.prx for (1.50) and (2.71),or if anyone had any ideas how to unbrick it?

    Thanks

    insteading of flashing that file, downgrade your psp then upgrade it again. put the 2.0 eboot in the RECOVERY folder and boot it in recovery. good luck mate :)

    You don't have to upgrade and then downgrade.

    Do this:
    1. Download the firmware 1.5 EBOOT from here:
    http://www.psp-hacks.com/category/43
    2. Rename the EBOOT to UPDATE.PBP and put it into X:\PSP\GAME\RECOVERY
    3. Plug in your AC adapter and then go to Recovery mode and click on "Run program at RECOVERY\EBOOT.PBP"
    4. Now if you're lucky your PSP will go back to 1.5 and then you can reinstall firmware 2.71 SE-C.

    That wont work as you have no way of accessing your PSP's flash, or do you?

    Ok, I'll dump my 2.71 SE-C firmware and upload the systemctrl.prx (2.71 version) for you.
