Charge Control 0.1.0

[wraggster]

Weltall has released a new app called Charge Control

Heres the details:

This is an extremely simple plugin i did for my convenience. It does two simple things: disable the psp charging functions and enable them back.
When you disable the charging you are able to put in and out any battery without the psp starting charging it (usefull if you don't really want to charge the battery but the battery has drained and you need to switch to line power, or you just want to connect the psp to line power avoiding to recharge with no reason the battery) You can easily do this with two key combinations. A note this will work only till the psp is powered on, when you powers it off the command will be reset to default and so the
battery will start anyway charging up. well enjoy.
----------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION

you can install this plugin by copying the prx to the seplugins folder of your memory stick (if missing create one in the root) and adding it to the vsh.txt, game.txt, pops.txt or game150.txt in this way: ms0:/seplugins/prxname.prx, which most probably would be ms0:/seplugins/charge_ctrl.prx or ms0:/seplugins/charge_ctrl371.prx, but could change if you put the plugin somewere else or change it's name. Finally you need to enable it by going into recovery (R when powering on the psp), then in plugins and pressing x over the plugin. NOTE: for 3.7x you must use the charge_ctrl371.prx but if you want to load this in the 1.50 kernel within a 3.7x firmware (game150.txt) you must use the charge_ctrl.prx.

--------------------------------------------------

USE:

The use is quite simple it consist of two buttons combinations L TRIGGER + R TRIGGER + VOL - to disable battery charging. This status will remain till power off L TRIGGER + R TRIGGER + VOL + to enable battery charging. This the normal behaviour of the psp :P

It lets you play through a power cord without it charging your battery. This is because you should always completely drain your battery before recharging it completely to 100%.

Otherwise, if you charge your battery when it has 50% power left, it'll decrease the battery life.

That's believed to be true for NiCd's and NiMH batteries. Lithium Ion batteries don't have the Memory effect.
