Semi-brick, h3llcat isnt working.

Anyway, I have a psp-1000 with 5.00 m33-6 with some kind of Prometheus patch a buddy of mine did.
I made an attempt to create a pandoras battery so I can install CFW on a friends slim. which went terribly wrong. It still boots in recovery, and I've tried the h3llcat method with 1.65 to flash recovery, but when I attempt, it goes black and doesnt read the memorystick as well as shutting it self off after about 15-30 seconds. I'm sure that the stick is a MMS as I was just using it for homebrew.
Also, I may have had a bad battery, as it has been giving me trouble lately. (shortened battery life)
I'm not completely stupid when it comes to cfw and I know how to use google, so any recommendations or help would be very appreciated.
thanks in advance.
