But it doesn't make any sense that the buttons just got shuffled all of a sudden.
Besides she said that she never had flashed the psp before, so unless it already came flashed it makes it all more weird.

I'd still prefer to know if there's anything running in the background just to be 100% sure that this is not a software issue before we proceed to going down and dirty with a screwdriver.
i will try since a replacement is a little ....... for my pocket!
I'm a girl!
The process to 6.60 with my pc :
Downloaded the OFW 6.60 from playstation, created a update folder in game folder and put the file eboot in it.
Run the eboot until it finish then extracted proupdate and fast recovery in game
and then used proupdate
Sorry! My bad!
Alright, that seems to follow the correct pattern, running Fast Recovery should've booted you into CFW Mode - it's bizzare that it doesn't, but perhaps you're not selecting the reinstall option in Proupdate and the installer just turns off - I can't tell how many times I've done that before just because I was in a hurry. Re-try from the Proupdate stage, make triple-sure that the CFW is actually installing, when done use Fast Recovery and check if you've booted into the CFW via the system settings if VSH still doesn't pop up. If you are, all if well on the software side. Double-check that you don't have any plugins running - you can check that by having a look at the seplugins folder on the memory stick - it should have three text files - GAME, VSH and POPS. If VSH has anything with a 1 value, change it to 0 and save. Re-insert the stick and reboot the system, then run Fast Recovery. If it's still a no go and SELECT refuses to work, it's almost 100% a hardware fault and you'll have to double-check the ribbon connectors on the motherboard, so have a look at the guide that was posted earlier on how to open the system. Be very gentle.
It does unless they're hard-coded into the registery, I think, so I want her to disable all Plugins and reboot just to be sure. It's been a while since I touched PSP modifications. I even busted out my old PSP-2000 just to help.
I have unistalled and reinstalled it then run fast recovery even checked the system : 6.60 PRO-C2 still no recovery menu.Sorry! My bad!

For the plugins i don't even have GAME,VSH or POPS so it's not this
Alright, so the situation is pretty clear - if reinstalling the OFW and the CFW did absolutely nothing to mend the situation, the fault is in the hardware - you have to double-check all of the ribbon connectors that go to the PSP's controls.
Naturally there's about a zillion videos on Youtube pertaining this particular subject, so I'll post one of them here. You can obviously skip the parts not relevant to your issue (like removing the rubber pads or anything like that).
Once you've re-adjusted the ribbon cables leading to the affected buttons, re-assemble the system and give it another go - here's for hoping that it works! While you're at it, you may as well do some exploratory work and check if the system has any signs of internal damage.
This trick will not work on Fast Recovery PSP's because the system natively boots to the OFW. She would either have to run Fast Recovery and hold R while that's doing its work (I think) or reboot the PSP from CFW mode which she can't do due to lack of access to the VSH in the first place, so this is quite a pickle.
If you did all correctly and have the "pro-c" in the system info then you should be able to boot into recovery menu.
Does the R button work in game?
-EDIT-
Still though if those two drops knocked the ribbons out, I'm really impressed the screen didn't get cracked.

Ok, didn't know that
Ribbons are a portable user's biggest enemy - they invariably get loose whether you care for the system or not. I swear to God, there must be some form of a ribbon fairy messing with them while we sleep, there is no logical explaination to this.
But seriously those connectors are quite snappy in my opinion. I even find it hard sometimes to open them with my fingers!Ribbons are a portable user's biggest enemy - they invariably get loose whether you care for the system or not.

Murphy's Law. They're always snapped shut when you want them to open.But seriously those connectors are quite snappy in my opinion. I even find it hard sometimes opening them with my fingers!
I will check but since my connection is a litthe slow , i will wait a hour before trying.
yes it work.
I'm just lucky that my screen is alright ... since then i stopped listenning Rock and metal song on my psp ( yes it was while singing, dancing, jumping while holding my psp that these falls two occured)
Do the SELECT/START/HOME/NOTE/SCREEN still act up, or were they fixed in the process of re-arranging ribbons?
