Sleep'n'Wake PSP v1.0 - alarm app for the PSP

Posted Apr 3, 2007 at 3:43AM by Karl B. Listed in: Homebrew Applications Tags: MK2k

MK2k has released a pretty useful alarm application for the PSP over on QJ's PSP Development forums. Called Sleep'n'Wake PSP, this homebrew app lets users doze off to the soothing sounds of their favorite track and wake up to the loud music of their choice or to the beeping alarm sound bundled with the package. Here's a list of the available features so far:

Full cbr/vbr/abr 8kbps-320kbps 44.1kHz MP3 support
MP3 can be of arbitrary length
Manage different playlists for Sleep and Wake modes (add/remove mp3s, save/load playlists)
In Sleep mode you can set a special, more silent volume
Wake mode is entered at a preset time with volume maxed (you can always adjust the maximum volume with the VOL + and - keys)
Write yourself a message which will be displayed in Wake mode
USB Mass Storage can be enabled/disabled within the app

Installation and usage instructions are in the readme file included in the download. Sleep'n'Wake PSP will run under Firmwares 1.0, 1.5, and 3.xx OE. All other custom firmware have yet to be tested for compatibility. For bug reports, comments, and suggestions, click on the "visit" link below.

# I like it BUT.... — Mentality 2007-04-02 22:29

I would much prefer something that I could set in the XMB

# cool idea - THX — Guest 2007-04-02 22:32

...!

# anyone wants to make — Guest 2007-04-02 22:52

a VSH plugin alarm app?

# . — Guest 2007-04-02 22:53

XMB is overrated ;)

# looks useful — Guest 2007-04-02 23:15

looks useful ! Now I need better speakers...

# lol — Guest 2007-04-02 23:55

lol, why do you need to enable USB in a alarm clock.

I saw a game a while ago, and with that game, you could reaster the pc, or log off the pc, now psp homebrew is also implenting stoped functions that do not belong there.

USB in a alarm clock...rrrrrright...

# bla — Guest 2007-04-02 23:58

As this app uses MP3s you can enable the USB Mass Storage to quickly throw some MP3s on the memstick while the app is running. If you don't need it, don't use it.

# so what — Guest 2007-04-03 00:01

is the usb option hurting you?? So what the ***** doest it matter, dont complain about pointless ***** unless you can make something better.

# lol — Guest 2007-04-03 00:25

it just dont belong there, an usb thing in a alarm clock...

Just like shutting down a computer inside a game, that also don't belong there.

I just find it odd and thats why i tell this.

# I overslept for this? — Guest 2007-04-03 00:36

I use IRShell... This is prob. better though.

# efse — Guest 2007-04-03 01:24

An app I might actually use. Nice.

# Vid? — Dartan 2007-04-03 02:14

Is there a video of this in action? What about the battery life when using ... will the PSP "die" and not be able to sound the alarm?

# Nice work — Guest 2007-04-03 02:23

I was just thinking about the same sorta thing. Mind posting some source?

wouldnt mind saving some time learning :)

# If you dont have something better to release... — Guest 2007-04-03 02:26

Dont talk shmack

# battery life — Guest 2007-04-03 02:35

It is recommended to plug in the power cable, a message is displayed when there is no power cable plugged in. How about just using the app, a video isn't really necessary.

# source — Guest 2007-04-03 02:37

Maybe I will publish the source some time, but not yet.

# ?? — Guest 2007-04-03 04:17

Will this wake up the psp from sleep modE? LIke with RSS channel downloading?

# . — Guest 2007-04-03 04:36

nnnnnope, you cannot suspend the psp to standby and hope it gets up with this app. You must have the psp running (turn the screen off, push the power button to lock and hook up the power cable) and let it go :)

# dude ur *****kkking gay — Guest 2007-04-03 07:06

go kill urself LOL

# Nice One — Guest 2007-04-03 08:03

Good stuff man, ive been waiting ages for an alarm clock app ( the one in IRshell doesn't work for me :/ ).

Keep up the good work!

# . — Guest 2007-04-03 08:12

Cheers man, there already exist one called PSPAlarm, but I thought that it lacked too much on features. The greatest disadvantage was that it could not play larger MP3s.

# ewq — Guest 2007-04-03 08:15

# WHAT?? — Guest 2007-04-03 09:27

did you just say that something was better than iRShell??? iRShell rules all. good app tho but i still use irshell and set the alarm while i listen to a playlist.

# . — Guest 2007-04-03 09:29

And you listen to a playlist where the volume is more silent than the alarm's one? OK!

# What damage? — Guest 2007-04-03 09:38

The life of my PSP shortens by leaving this app on all night. Thank you.

# . — Guest 2007-04-03 09:53

# ... — Guest 2007-04-03 11:10

You're a *****tard.

# Nice Job! — Guest 2007-04-03 12:07

I will totally use this so I wont be late for school in the morning. This is perfect! I can plug my i-Trip for my PSP into my PSP and then turn on my stario to listen to music I want. Nice job dude!

# wrong — Guest 2007-04-04 05:46

i leave my psp on and in the cradle with power ALL teh time. I NEVER turn my psp off. This would actually improve the battery life because it uses li-lon batteries. read up on them. / discharging them

# . — Guest 2007-04-04 09:33

I'm HAPPY that so much ppl find S'n'W useful :)
