noled v2.1 - slim release build
noled v2.1 is a cleanup release. The following was changed since v2.0:
- the release plugin was slimmed down to the production policy only: 5.3 KB filesize, under 1 KB of resident kernel memory (v2.0: 30 KB / ~186 KB)
- zero file I/O: no config file read, no logs written - fixes v2.0 appending a heartbeat line to
ux0:data/noled/probe.logevery 10 s without bound;ux0:data/noled/is no longer used and can be deleted- all research/diagnostic machinery moved to a build-it-yourself dev harness (
dev/); releases ship onlynoled.skprx- LED behavior is unchanged and was re-verified on hardware
Below the original release notes for v2.0:
First known software control of the PCH-2000 (Vita Slim / Vita 2000) green power LED - the feature requested in rereprep#3 since 2018.
- Vita 2000 / PCH-2000: power LED dark whenever the console is on; orange charging indication preserved (shows while actually charging, incl. in standby); re-applied automatically ~2s after every wake
- Vita 1000: unchanged classic behavior (home button + game card LED off) - the plugin autodetects the model
- boot plugin only: no app, no configuration file needed
- bonus: the standby blink sequence is suppressed too (one short final blink remains, generated inside the syscon MCU)
Install: copy noled.skprx to ur0:tai/ (or ux0:tai/), add it under *KERNEL in your taiHEN config.txt, reboot.
How it works: the LED hangs off the syscon MCU ("Ernie"), not a SoC GPIO - full write-up in docs/pch2000-power-led-research.md.
