PSP Updates Summer Homebrew Contest: PSP Hardware Alarm Suite II v2.7 bld1727 |
Ó
Mr305 has rolled out a new version of his PSP Hardware Alarm Suite II just in time for this year's PSPUpdates Summer Homebrew Contest. In case you've never come across it before, this app turns your PSP (Fat or Slim) into an alarm clock. It even works even when your PSP is in sleep mode or turned off.
Below is a list of what's new in v2.7 build 1727. For clarity, we've also included the changes in the release preceding this one, v2.6 build 1648:
Version 2.7 build 1727
- CORE: You can't change to Alarm set mode UNTIL you STOP the alarm
- CORE: As Per user feedback, You can now snooze for 5 mins, once the alarm is playing.
- INTERNAL: Changes to graphics module to accommodate changes along with other optimizations and cleanups
- GUI: Improved exit/poweroff/sleep mode animation: Now uses 5 Random effects; Further smoothened animation -- no more choppy borders!
- CORE: Now uses SQUARE to stop alarm; to make it more similar to Poweroff Alarm Module/
- GUI: Changed intro.
- CORE: Internet time synchronization added. Edit config_hasuite.ini according to your local region.
- CORE: Power off Alarm NOW works on ALL FW's including 3.90+. (Cause: Changes made to scePower_service module since FW's 3.90+, one of the eventflag handling changed)
- CORE: 24 Hour time system implemented as per users feedback! Keep 'em comin. You can choose between the two 12Hr/24Hr.
- CORE: Added option to Toggle USB at any time; No more hassle of going back to XMB just for USB; Uses safe USB dismounting (no corrupt files or File System).
- CORE: Alarm now also works in normal mode ie. even if PSP is not put to sleep or powered off (Best for PSP DOCKS / people who dedicate this application to their PSP's 24hrs).
- CORE: In previous version, There was a 1% chance that unit woke up a minute after alarm time or not at all. Fixed. Now, 100% Probability that alarm wake up at all times.
- CORE: Added Informative Message Dialogs for those not patient enough to read readme's carefully
- GUI: Every Single GFX recreated from scratch and edited pixel-by-pixel.(C'mon I need a GFX artist next time!)
- GUI: Major rework of color schemes with hand-picked colors to match the BG.
- GUI: The colon now ticks every half-a-second.
- GUI: Added nice subtle sounds to GUI.
- GUI: Extensive changes to physics; now uses smooth scrolling.
- GUI: Removed every trace of DebugText; now uses intraFont unless there's a fatal error.
- CORE: You are now able to void(cancel) an alarm at anytime.
- CORE: Power off Alarm time if existed in(ms0:/seplugins/Hapowersupport.305) was read but hours weren't correctly read, if hours were less than 10 ex: 09 would become 12 or 00 based on time format. Fixed.
- CORE: Alarm, when resuming from Sleep Mode, was off by 1 second. Fixed.
- CORE: Now, you can't set the alarm if itÂ’s invalid; this caused abnormal behaviour in previous version.
- CORE: As a safety feature. The minimum duration of alarm is now 2 minutes.
- CORE: Sometimes seconds or minutes went up to or above 60. Fixed.
- GUI: Added an Option bar at bottom since OSD is fully crowded.
- GUI: Changed Button texts to real button images.
- CORE: Now shows detailed version info during splash.
- INTERAL: Massive code cleanup
- INTERAL: Tighter (better) Memory management
- INTERAL: Miscellaneous bug fixes
- INTERAL: Fixed two places of String overwrite that incredibly rarely caused wrong time to be shown.
- GUI: Home Exit Callbacks removed; you now have to use Option bar to exit.
- MISC: New Name; New make-over.

I wonder if he fixed the problem with the settings reverting back to default when you close the program... things like 12 or 24 hour alarm

-Mistr305!
No. I have so little of time to work on PSP now-a-days.
I guarantee you that I will update it for christmas or anyother long weekend with users feedback.
As a matter of fact, I donot even have time to play with PSP during weekend either :(
I know how you feel.. I work 2 jobs myself so I don't have much time to play either +/
Wow, very cool looking and sounds awesome.
It looks really sharp. Nice work!
I like how it works while the psp is off too..

Can't the article be edited to show this kindly?
Thanks,
Mr305
this woke me up for school. Thanks :)
This application uses kernel memory AND IS NOT A PLAIN User mode application. So IRShell IS THE ABSOLUTELY not Recommended.
