"Brick" means corrupting your Firmware, the system that makes your PSP run. Bricking can be caused by either "interrupted update of firmware" or attempt to install "PSP Hacks" also known as Jailbreaks or Custom Firmware (CFW).
Some PSP Models can be revived when bricked by using a system called "Recovery Menu" which becomes available when the PSP was running a CFW before it bricked. Another way of unbricking a PSP including those that runs Original Firmware is using Pandora Battery and a Magic Memory Stick.
However, there are PSP MOdels that cannot be unbricked. These are the PSP 2000 Slim that have the Motherboard TA088v3 and other higher end. The worst PSP Motherboard is the TA088v3 because once bricked, PSP becomes a lovely paperweight without game functions and possibility to be revived.
PSP Custom Firmware 6.35 PRO-B4 has been release by Virtousflame (a.k.a liquidzigong) and coldbird. The latest release includes a few bugs fixes for better stability and compatibility for all model PSP System (PSP 1000, 2000, 3000 and PSP GO - N-Series) .
This CFw has works on Sony firmware (OFw) 6.35 to lets users play backup UMD's - ISO games, so if you're already on OFw 6.35, you can either use this, If it doesn't, you will need to update your PSP firmware to 6.35.
Required :
PSP-300x or PSP-200x TA-088v3 or PSP GO has Sony Firmware '6.35' installed. other firmware is not supported. If you don't have PSP 6.35 installed, you need to update it.
Version check: On the PSP Menu (also known as XMB= Xross Media Bar), and goto 'Settings Menu' >> 'System Settings' >> 'System Information' and you should see firmware version of your PSP.
An Memory Stick at least 32mb for OFw update & CFw 6.35PRO-B4, ( Internal storage for PSP GO ).
Installation Instructions : Note: This software is free, and comes with no warranty, it has been tested and it has work, however I am not responsible for any bricked, so please try this at your own risk!. If you're afraid of risk of brick, don't try to downgrade. Read more...

I really hope you didn't try to put custom firmware on it if its a slim with a TA088V3 motherboard or if its a 3000. If you did, its a brick. A permanent brick.

In order to run isos which one downloads online one must first install custom firmware on your psp. The only way to do this is to downgrade your psp to 1.5 which can only be accomplished by using a pandoras battery. These are extemely easy to make and u can look on any website to find directions. They can also be bought for relatively cheap if u dont like the idea of cutting your own battery open. Please note that if u do decide to downgrade and install custom firmware ur psp runs the risk of bricking which will completely break it. Installing custom firmware voids the warrenty so if it does brick you can do nothing about it, do so at your own risk.
The only way to get downloaded PSP games to work is to have custom firmware. Custom Firmware also dont brick your PSP unless you interrupt your PSP while upgrading your PSP.
you have bricked your psp usually done by a crash in an update look into a pandora battery do not try to make one yourself and get you also need a magic memory stick look them uo on google but do not fall for scams if you shop online
