So I bought a bricked PSP off of ebay for about $55. I figured Id do the whole pandora battery and MMS and get a nice working PSP to use as a present for my cousin.

I got the PSP in the mail. The thing looked fantastic. The body and buttons were mint. Better all around then my current PSP. I throw the MMS and pandora in. Light comes on, then light goes off. Did some reading and it sounds like the PSP experienced a hardware failure.

$55 down the drain unless I feel frisky and swap the guts of my current PSP into the broke one.

 

Search craigslist for a local PSP resource who does CFW and may know what the problem is.

 

I tried making another MMS and all 3 lights came on but they didnt start blinking. I then used it in my working PSP and it did nothing. So I went back to the original one I made and its back to the on/off real quick. Threw it in my PSP and it came to the CFW install screen.

Both are fat PSPs.
