HOW-TO: Restore a battery used for unbricking - unbrick without buying a spare!
If you only have one battery and want to unbrick your PSP, you can.
1) Convert your battery into a jigkick one using "Pandora's Battery Creator", but before you press X, press TRIANGLE to backup your battery's EEPROM to ms0:/eeprom.bin
2) Unbrick your PSP as normal
3) When you are done unbricking, take out the battery and the magic memory stick. Start up the PSP using the AC adaptor (do not try to use a USB charger, it will not start up)
4) Insert the magic memory stick and the magic battery
5) Run "Pandora's Battery Creator" again
6) Press L+R to restore the ms0:/eeprom.bin to your battery - you may get an "0x14 write error" when doing this, it doesn't seem to be a problem.
NOTE: You can also restore a battery without having made a backup, by pressing SQUARE at step 6. This will generate a fake serial for your battery (0x12345678) which allows it to work normally, but there could be side-effects.
Have fun, and thanks to everyone in the Prometheus/C+D team.

Wowzers! So as long you have a a psp running 1.5 or cfw then you can unbrick/downgrade ANY psp and then restore the battery to it's normal state? What about the "magic" mem stick? Can that just be formatted and it's working as normal?

Am I missing something?
You need a working psp to create a magic battery and magic MS, if you restore the magic battery back to ordinary battery, what happen if you brick your psp?
I think a spare magic battery should be in your draw just incase there's a sudden brick...am I right?
NoOne Care About Your Firmware History, Only Your Current Firmware Is Matter:

1 GIG fake HI-Speed Stick...Work like charm 4 almost 2 years. 
2 GIG fake Stick...Work fine...slow transfer 
Pandora Stick + Battery
NDS Lite: G6 Lite 4G
Passcard3: Flashme v8a

You can use it as a normal gofuckyourself for ISOs, yes.
Just reformat it in the system settings menu.

i'd rather choose turn on psp with AC adapter and put the magic battery in then unplug the power cable then the PSP will work with magic bettery but remember not to power it off.
