Welcome and sorry that you are having a problem. I sometimes save problem solving threads and had the below three threads that list the same type problem and their resolution. I hope that one of these can help.
First thing that has usually been mentioned is that you have your Reader fully charged (preferably using a wall (mains) charger that plugs into your Reader's round connector. A PSP charger is cheap and works well.
Please let us know what happens.

The "soft reset 10 times" method did not work for me. But I have finally got it unbricked using the following method  :
1. Press the pinhole on the back panel(do not exercise the power switch ).
2. Connect the reader to USB. The reader will still show "starting up...", BUT the light beside the power switch turn red and the computer can read the internal memory of the reader now.
3. Format the internal memory using FAT.
4. Unconnect the reader and exercise the power switch to soft reset it.
This is how I got my prs505 unbricked. Hope this will be of some use to some other people... |
