Developer Mr305 visited the QJ.NET Forums earlier to announce the release of PSP Hardware Alarm Interface I v1.3.359. This homebrew application is basically an alarm that will activate even if the PSP's in sleep or Powered Off (standby) mode. The latter feature is definitely a big plus if you don't fancy leaving your handheld plugged into an outlet all the time. As for the rest of this homebrew's features (quoting the readme):

Main Features:
  • Runs on both 1.xx & 3.xx Kernels - Compatible with both PSP 2000(Slim & Light) & PSP 1000(Classic)
  • Sleep Mode Alarm with support for custom MP3 Audio file.
  • Power Off Mode Alarm that plays sound in XMB. (Plugin Required - Seperate Package)
  • Uses 12 Hour Time system (AM/PM), no more Confusing time conversions
  • Display's Hour's and Minutes remaining as the Alarm time is being set; updated in real time.
  • Alarm can be set up to 23 hours 59 minutes in future, Check for (Invalid - Readjust message).
  • Alarm Accurate to the Second.
You will also want to download the Hardware Alarm Power Off Alarm Support Plugin v1.0.11. This plugin will ensure that the PSP's current time matches the alarm's time in  ms0:sepluginsHAPowerOff Support.30.

Mr305 notes that due to some currently unidentified problems, this homebrew application's Poweroff Alarm mode is unable to function on PSPs running CFW 3.95 GEN-2. Further details on this application can be found in the file bundle's readme and at Mr305's release thread at the QJ.NET PSP Development Forum.

Time Baby +

It's not really a "finding". Wake up from sleep mode is built into a similar app by Art named "Time Baby". The difference here is that Mr305 has 3.x support.

Works Perfect

It works great! I've been looking for a cool alarm app for the PSP and this works great even when the PSP is on sleep mode or standby! For those who worry if the audio is not loud enough, you got 2 options. Most effective option: Sleep with your earphones Somewhat effective option: Plug it in to a speaker (: I love this app! Thanks Mr305!

IRShell

I don't have much use for this, as the IRShell alarm clock already does this, but for people who don't use IRShell, this is great.

finally

been waitig for something like this since i upgraded ad irshell doesnt work on my firmare anymore...and i's taking forever for the other homebre to include slim in the works for an alarm clock... the standby works great!!! although the power off feature just bumps back to the XMB with no alarm...clean interface too...now if you include a snooze and alarm off feature...(tried using a oud mp3 and it wont stop playing, i have to exit the app). either way..this is a really good app!! A job VERY well done!!!
