VSHExtender v0.1 for 1.50 with Custom Firmware |
Ó
With all talks of Custom Firmwares rounding the PSP scene, jas0nuk has thought of making apps that will make the contribute to the hype. First, he came up with the Custom Firmware Recovery.ELF Tester that allowed custom firmware users to test a recovery.elf file in the memory stick before doing it in the flash memory. Today, he presents us with a "module adds 'extensions' to your 1.50 VSH/XMB that can be accessed via keypresses".VSHExtender v0.1 is partially based on Booster's code but was rewritten for firmware 1.5. The developer suggests that this application be used with Dark_AleX's custom firmware or any custom firmware which allows users to add external modules (Harleyg's counted).
jas0nuk admits that the features of the VSHExtender may not seem impressive for now, but with this base he says that it will be easier for him to add new features later on. With that, here are the features:
- Press HOME + SELECT in the XMB to change the CPU and GPU speeds, steps are 133/66, 222/111, 266/133, and 333/166
- Press HOME + CIRCLE in the XMB to change the CPU speed to 30MHz and the GPU to 50MHz. This makes the XMB become a little laggy but is fine for playing AT3 music or AVC video as this is hardware decoded
- Press HOME + L TRIGGER to execute ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM/DEVBOOT.PBP - this is yet ANOTHER way of booting DevHook instantly into 2.71 firmware, but now you can do it after startup
- Press HOME + R TRIGGER to get battery percentage, voltage and temperature information.
Installing this application is easy. Just add the line loadmodule0 = "ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM/vshex.prx" to the config.txt in ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM. If the said line is already taken, an alternate line will be loadmodule1 = "ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM/vshex.prx" or loadmodule2 = "ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM/vshex.prx" or loadmodule3 = "ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM/vshex.prx", etc...
The developer said he's tested this mod 'countless times' and claims that it worked fine with Dark_AleX's and Harleyg's custom firmwares.
If you want to see other features in later releases or you have encountered any bugs or you just want to give a shout-out to jas0nuk, feel free to voice your thoughts in the comments section or in the forum release thread.

whats up with the first. im on this at 2am and ive been patiently waiting for dj skeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
So, is switching the PSP down to 30MHz helping to increase battery life when playing MP3s? Because I thought processor usage wasn't that high during MP3-playback anyway...
Yes, 30mhz saves a lot of battery power but also keeps the VSH active.
@#5 How the hell can you brick your PSP with this, you fool... this dosn't even touch the flash! I think someone is trying to feck up the comments already, give it an hour or so and we'll have the "OMFG!!!11!! it works on 2.71" *****s Anyhows, works great for me, keep up the good work developers :-)
nocomment
ok i totally recommend this, this and dark alexes. both of these guys should be working together this is the best non currupt bs iv seen all day lol, any way when is flash 12 coming out to insull all the flash things attomaticly, and the people saying you bricked your psps by insulling this, THEN GOOD BECOUSE YOU DONT *****ING TURN YOUR PSP OFF WHILE ITS FLASHING THATS THE ONLY WAY YOU BRICK IT YOU IDIOTS. JESUS. well any way this is good for saving battery and easy to use which is good, also i am really pulling for that new gba emulator and that new flash 12. i am really hopeing those will come out soon, cant wait for more updates keep up the good work
Yer you should also include infomation about CPU in the HOME + R command...
hey guys after i have changed the config file to loadmodule1 = "ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM/vshex.prx", i restarted my psp and try all of the keys like Home + R and all the above but nothing happens....do i nid to install the custom psp firmware again after i put all the files in?
make sure you delete the # at the begining of the loadmodule... line
I am using this with Dark Alex's custom firmware and a few other mods. My Psp now autoboots into Devhook depending on which way my Wlan switch is but now I can underclock the CPU via the shortcut keys to save on battery and I have more control. Highly recommended as an addition to the custom firmware and Devhook mods.
This is GOOD!! ThanX & keepit Up!!
lol might ahve to give this a go though
