Anger Wrote:firstly a small note, if you didnt change your game folder to 3.52 kernel the installer wouldnt have worked at all.

yes i did'nt change the game folder to 3.52 kernal, still the installer worked.

I thought 3.52 M33 defaulted GAME kernel to 3.52...

Uhh... lock switch?  You said directional keys not working, but thing boots up.


With the recovery menu:
1) Toggle USB
2) Get the 3.71 » 1.50 downgrader
3) Install to the correct location
4) Run the 1.50 downgrader.

It's one thing I don't like about 3.71 - no reflashing...

shady do you have something against me?

i shall attempt to answer your respnses without causing an argument because you seem to have taken it the wrong way - especialy as i wasn't asking or suggesting the ideas to you.

Shady545 Wrote:read carefully i didnt say to rename anything in flash0

read carefully the post before yours by gsmoke - i was addressing his response. i might also add that i misunderstood what he was saying - i assumed flash, i think now he means memory stick via usb.

Shady545 Wrote:then why suggest it?

i suggest it because it can happen - and if it does the psp will be virtually useless - you being the expert on all things psp should know that :/. i restored an image of 3.71 onto my psp and it didnt work - UNTIL i had seperatly reflashed my backup of my keys.

Shady545 Wrote:reflashing 1.5 would fix all issues

if the keys became corrupt NOTHING would fix it unless he had a backup of the keys. also if the psp has bad blocks, particularly around the boot sectors, reflashing 1.5 wouldnt fix those - it could make things worse.

Shady545 Wrote:and updating to 3.71 m33 wouldnt affect you psp keys

correct it wouldnt affect the keys UNLESS his flash had some kind of corruption - say from the usb bugs that 3.52 HAD.

Shady545 Wrote:that can't be the only solution.

pandora is not the only solution true but it is the best, easiest and safest.

now please post back if you have anything to say that doesn't involve a flame at me, otherwise try and help the guy rather than say stuff that just isn't true.

something else must have been on my mind and you might have been colleteral damage
sorry though. didnt mean anything by it

@dasme glad you got a solution that worked.
