Psp - gameboot freezes

Hi guys,
I've recently tried to change my gameboot to the custom one. The thing is, that I've done something wrong and now every time I try to boot my games (UMDs, emulators), the screen freezes and then the psp turns off :| . It doesn't run the custom firmware now (because it doesn't boot up) and I can not use it to change the psp mode back to "flash0".
My custom firmware is 6.61. The homebrew works just fine.
Thanks

Its problem use wrong gameboot on higher CFW - if u have PSP 100x or 200x make Pandora and MMS and reinstall to OFW and isntall CFW.

And dont use gameboots change isnt worth do that stuff.

Or when power on PSP hold R button and will show Recovery disable Custom boot in options and reboot PSP again

or that same what up writed but change in options to connect to PC via flash0 and delete that moded file.

Or 3 method works

The thing is, that I have the 3004. I tried to get to the recovery menu by holding the R button but it doesn't work.
Thanks anyway ;)

Wird becouse no need lucch full CFW to get to recovery - becouse i think correct u have problem run CFW becouse stops after sony logo duo the gameboot frezze. But 100% must recovery work.


And why u when have PSP 3004 or andy up PSP GO or Street - U editing Flash0 and broke fix u have 100% chance to brick PSP and when no for that models UNBRICK u have to replase mobo from anotcher PSP that model

I have PSP 100x and 200x - i can do any thing in flash0 i can example delete all files and get brick and witch PANDORA nad MMS i can in 5m fix to work reinstall or NAND CFW

But on PSP 3004 and up when u some broke or delete - its like trash PSP and buy next


But its 1 method never trayed use PSP Dawngrader to 6.60 will reinstal all OFW (flash0) to new and then update agian to 6.61 and 6.61 CFW

Never trayed but work and no know no trayed launch on OFW if work or need CFW. But was made becouse 6.61 was new and no CFW was that day so was to downgrade to 6.60 sto install again CFW for that version . So in 99% is for OFW

Then dawngrade test check for 100% the 6.60 or 6.20 the normal when dawngrade u upgrade to 6.61 CFW and will get clean like Windows format FW in PSP

Problem - Pandora doesn't work on 3000

If you are running a CFW that needs to be triggered after boot you can't boot into recovery.

This is why you should never modify flash0 files without ZeroVSH (on any model, but definitely the 3000+).

PSP is ruined, so sorry.

Also I feel for you, on my 1000 my first brick was related to gameboot mods. I had perm CFW and could boot into recovery so I got lucky.

OP is not using a permanent custom firmware.
OP has to launch a eboot from the XMB to edit flash0.
Launching the eboot isn't possible because the corrupted gameboot crashes the PSP.

You might be able to update to a "downgrader" from usb firmware but I have no idea if that would also trigger a gameboot.
