BATalert changed its name and is now prxutility + +.Reminder: This plug-in helps prevent the user rather than the battery is very low.Starting from 30%, the power LED starts to flash slowly,then from 20% less it will blink slowlythen from 10% the LED will blink rapidlyand from 5% the LED will blink rapidly.Changelog:* Code reorganized and optimized* Compatibility with firmware 4.01 M33, 5.00 M33 and 5.02 GEN* Separation now prxutility + + prx into two: - One for xmb (VSH)- One for game * New in the Information menu (on the battery ...): - The menu has been slightly modified level available on the screen- The time remaining is shown otherwise façcon more understandable:now there are a remaining time in hours and minutes remaining that lets you know precisely the remaining- Add the date in the form day / month / year- Addition of hours in the form (s): minute (s): second (s)- You can now know the current thread running- Added display your PSP firmware- Added model Pommel- The menu information can now be fully translated (in English (file: trad.en this in the "language" of prxutility + +) or French (file: trad.fr this in the "language" of prxutility + +))* All keys prxutility + + are now customizable: go to the files in the "configuration" of prxutility + +: - Or prxutility [VSH]. Ini to change the keys used by prxutility + + in xmb- Or prxutility [game]. Ini to change the keys used by prxutility + + in gameThis allows the user greater ease of use in games, homebrews ...* Add a file explorer and folders that allows both games, homebrews in the xmb: - Consult both the memory stick, the flash0 the flash1 the Flash2 and Flash3 by simply pressing START- Delete files, folders (but if the files are present in a folder, it will not be deleted but will only files deleted).However, the suppression is possible only in the memory stick to "protect" users who are not accustomed to handling flash0 :/...- Launch of eboot, prx, iso and cso * Now when you access a menu of prxutility + + (but also for the file explorer) the keys xmb or homebrews, games are blocked to improve the comfort of navigation in the menu prxutility + + * Prxutility + + 6.0 also allows you to start the recovery in full sail it ETDE xmb like the custom firmwares GEN, however: - To save the change: just select exit recovery menu and then press the keys prxutility + + to leave the recovery.If you do not want to save the changes, simply press the keys prxutility + + to leave the recovery.In both cases, the PSP rebootera then.- The recovery can not be launched in full or homebrew games* Creating a history of access to the xmb and play, with homebrew: - Creation of a text file in the folder prxutility + + (named for lastaccessxmb.txt xmb access and access to lastaccessgame.txt in game)which included the date and time of last access- While also creating a history in the "historyaccessxmb" for VSH and historyaccessgame "game for having access to all xmb and game (with date and time of access each time) (these files are located in the prxutility file + +)- Possibility to erase the entire history (text + historical record) or the game xmb* Add in the Configuration menu to release or (re) block keys (the xmb, games ...) in access menus prxutility + + (except the file browser) * Adding a 3-second delay before you can view the menus (to prevent bugs in the start of the PSP) * Another important novelty of prxutility + + is the integration of a keyboard rather easy to use (by pressing L and R buttons by default, but modifiable see above). Abbreviation of certain information on the keyboard: - ENTER = before the text (to save a file or start the application whose path has been entered in the text box)- DEL = delete the last character of your sasi- Ms0: / = shortcut that enables direct "ms0: /" in the text box- SPACE space- TXT = toggles in the way of writing text (ie "Text Writer" see below)- APPL = toggles in launch mode of application (ie "Launch App" see below)- JUM = line- TYPE = switching between the mode of writing upper and lower case The keyboard can be two major tasks: - The first (entitled "Text Writer") allows you to write text directly from the xmb or in game, handy if you want to write a note to remember. To save what you wrote, simply select JUM (= line) and write directly on the new space without the path where you want to register: there is a keyboard in the "ms0: /" which lets you select when to view directly into the area before "ms0: /" which makes your life easier ^ ^. Example: You can enter as a way: "ms0: / blabla.txt. After entering the path: START press ENTER or select the keyboard to register- The second (entitled "Lauch App") lets you eboot, iso, cso prx and entering the road from the keyboard and pressing START or selecting ENTER In the "Text Writer", the number of lines written is displayed and you are entitled to a maximum of 250 lines* Added a new customizable from its memory stick without touching the flash0: system_plugin_bg.rco; - Reminder:* Tuto:create a "theme" at the root of the memory stick;put (s) file (s) you want (but belong to the files cited by customizable prxutility + +) in this case;* + + Prxutility checks for these files to launch the PSP in order to prevent bugs * If you are in 4.01 M33 you can use this feature, but not to the file "osk_plugin_500.rco" in the "theme" because it can lead to bugs (freeze the PSP) * The bus speed has been increased and increased to 32 instead of 28 MHz in order to have a better record of its economy mode when the battery * Now when HOLD is activated, the PSP is no longer in the battery saving mode using frozen (but still normal mode HOLD ie with only the buttons blocked). * To switch to the battery saving mode with keys locked, simply put the analog stick down and activate the same time HOLD * The history and the credentials of the Internet browser of the PSP were deleted in more appronfondis (prxutility + + delete cookies from now flash1: /) * Fixed many bugs: - The bug that causes prolonged support of keys (including pes2009) was set- No problem slow to point out:)- The vshmenu appears now normally***************** Installation (change ):************************# Connect your PSP to your computer via USB, # Place your PSP in USB mode through the USB Connection option, # Right-click on the file you downloaded, # Choose to Extract Files ...

Developer pspflashsystem visited the Qj.NET Forums earlier to announce the release version 4.0 of the prxutility++ application for the Sony PSP. In case you weren't around during our previous coverage, this homebrew plugin will enable you to display essential information on your PSP, such as its remaining battery time, cpu/bus speed, mac address, and motherboard model.Version 4.0 in particular has been optimized to work with Team M33's custom PSP firmware 4.01 and higher. As for the rest of the changes (quoting pspflashsystem's thread): * Compatible with the 4.01 M33 or higher * You can now take screenshots with L + HOME saved to "ms0:/PICTURE/prxutility++shot" * When you are in the Help menu, this prx suspend the xmb to avoid that the xmb is decelerated * Fixed some bugsFurther details on using prxutility are available in the readme included with the file bundle. Just be sure to have a link handy for your favorite translation site since the instructions are in French. You may also want to visit the developer's release thread at the QJ/NET PSP Development Forum if you're interested in leaving your feedback.

Now we bring you developments from the French homebrew front: coder pspflashsystem has just rolled out version 3.0 of the application known as prxutility. This comes with several improvements and bug fixes.

For those who missed the previous coverage on this, prxutility is actually a utility program for the Sony PlayStation Portable. What it does, among other things, is alert users whenever the handheld's battery runs low.

A changelog for version 3.0 of the program has been provided by pspflashsystem. Here's a version of it, translated to English using an online language engine:

• New information added in the menu on the battery
• Information about the Mac Address your PSP
• Information on the WLAN your psp (possibility of whether the button on WLAN is on or off and
• if the WLAN is functioning normally)
• Information on the motherboard of your PSP (if it is a TA-79/81/82/86/85 or 85 V2 but for the TA-85 V2, failing slim psp with this motherboard I have not been able to verify if my prx recognizes this motherboard to verify)
• Adding a configuration file that allows you to customize the buttons for access to different menus: You can change the keys in the file located in pspflashsystem.system "ms0: / SEPLUGINS / prxutility + + / pspflashsystem.system."
• Note: * The buttons default to help display the menu are: L + NOTE
• The buttons default to display the menu information: NOTE VOLEUP + (= volume up)
• Use the "Notebook" to open this configuration file
• Everything is detailed in the configuration file pspflashsystem.system
• The bug of affchage which was that the texts overlapped when we went from one screen to another
• Improvements to the presentation in the menu information

That's about it for prxutility v3.0. Just be sure to give the Readme.txt file a good run through and translation to maximize the potential of this program.

Homebrew developer pspflashsystem's prxutility has proven itself to be quite useful for those who are quite mindful of their PSP's battery juice. The recently updated application is once again revised, with some helpful additions: a more accessible Help menu, and a new menu that gives more info about your PSP's battery.

Check out the changelog below (as translated from French by our trusty weblator) for more details about the changes:

• The Help menu is now accessible by pressing L + NOTE simultaneously and left alone. After a while...
• You can now access a new menu that tells you about your battery (such as level of charge and hours remaining before unloading your batter, the temperature of your battery, the voltage of your battery, battery status, it also tells you if your battery is present or not and if the AC adapter is connected to the PSP or not). This menu is accessed by pressing buttons simultaneously VOLUP NOTE +
• Corrections of a few minor bugs
• Best legibility of menus

As always, you need to go through the readme file first to get more information about how to install this application. But since its written in French, you may need to run it through a translator. Enjoy!

For those who are fond of the Sony PlayStation Portable plugin BATalert, take note that its owner French coder pspflashsystem has released a new build and decided to change the name to prxutility.

Just like its previous name implies, this alerts the users whenever the battery runs dangerously low. With version 1.0 comes the different blinking speed of the power LED. According to the owner, blinking will start slowly when battery hits 30%.

After that, the blinking will become faster when the battery is only at 20% and that the power LED will blink rapidly when the battery is just 10% and it will be at its fastest at 5%. Other features include (translated from French using an online language engine):

• With a keystroke, you can:

o Turn on your PSP
o Reboot your PSP
o Pause your PSP
o Set the backlight of your maximum PSP
o Set the backlight of your PSP at least
o NB: All key combinations are detailed in a help menu.
o To make it appear, simply press the button on your PSP L

prxutility version 1.0 comes with its own Readme.txt file as well as several other doumentation. They are written in French so you might need to translate them to be able to get the exact notes on installation and usage.
