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.
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.
