PSP slim and light locked up

Try holding the power button all the way up for 10 seconds. then power it back on.

Hello there

Download MPH Downgrader and Firmware version you want(e.g 1.50) to the Windows-based computer. Connect the PSP Slim to the computer's USB port using the USB connector. Transfer the two programs to the main folder of the PSP Slim. Disconnect the PSP Slim from the computer's USB hub when the transfer is complete.

Turn on the PSP Slim. Go to the Settings/USB Connection in the Home menu and select the EBOOT.PBP file in the PSP\GAME\UPDATE update folder. Extract the MPH Downgrader zip file to the root folder of the PSP. Click OK using the X button if you are prompted that this will replace some files.

Go to Photo/Memory Stick in the Home menu. Wait as the screen goes black and numbers appear. Wait two minutes and then press and hold the power switch until the PSP Slim turns off. Release the power switch.

Wait as the PSP Slim turns on and reboots. Go to Game/Memory Stick in the Home menu and select PSPS Update version 1.50. Press the X button to start the update.

Wait as the update finishes and presents an error message. Press the O button to restart the PSP.

This is what we call a bricked psp.

To fix your going to need a pandora battery and a magic memory stick and a cfw (custom firmware)

To unbrick your psp is not a hard task even for a beginner.

If you need any further help please feel free to let me know.

Did this happen after doing a firmware upgrade? Have you made sure to charge the battery? When you push the power switch does a orange light come on?

maby the hold is on try to hit the power button again up a little if it is stuck if it is stuck it is on hold

take it to the shop it came from it's faulty

try pulling baderypack out and putting it back in.

Try taking out the battery, waiting 1-2 minutes, putting the battery back in, and then charging it for 10 hours without turning the unit on

Take the battery out, and put it back in, same problem?

Its bricked. Google bricked into google, and there's a tutorial on how to fix it, not too complicated, but thats IF its bricked.. if power light comes on then goes off means its bricked.
