Small update: v1.11
  • Added screensaver mode to advanced options - Full screen background with no icons, thanks to @xp3riments for the offline JS to do that.
  • Moved Reload XMB app into the advanced options sub menu.
  • Removed the NAND recovery mode option, NAND users can use v1.10 if they really need that.
  • Slipstreamed category_user_login.xml by linking it back to the main xml.
Just install and reboot, dev_blind must be mounted.

Now works on HEN and CFW so I have changed the name to "Advanced Power Options" and increased the version to v1.10.

Changes:
  • Used a sprx that is signed with 3.55 keys to work on HEN

For CFW users there is no need to update, no other changes.

HEN and CFW users, Make sure you have dev_blind mounted to install this. Otherwise you will get a 8001003A error and it will fail to install properly.

User login screen:

User category top level:

Main Power Options menu:

Advanced menu:

Changes:
  • Changed category of the Reload XMB application to HM so it does not show anywhere else except in the power options menu.
  • Changed Content ID of the Reload XMB application to RELOADXM1 so it does not clash with the one in Network (if its installed)
  • Added a PIC1.PNG to the Reload XMB application so it has a fake info line under the title.
  • Made this into a hybrid pkg using the new tool by lmn7. (custom and standard pkg in one), So now you don't need to install the Reload XMB package separately, it now installs with the main pkg by default.
If you already have this installed there is not much point updating. Very minor changes to just the Reload XMB application really.


Note: dev_blind must be mounted to install this pkg as usual. If you get the 8001003A error it means its not mounted.
New features:
  • Have the added NAND recovery mode option from v1.05 as official feature now, delete strviewer_plugin.rco to enable that feature.
  • This adds Turn off (without confirmation) and Soft reboot to the user login screen.
  • The installer is now a package that installs files directly to dev_blind so it must be mounted prior to install.
  • Its now only 330kb which is 60% reduction approx. It could even be included on dev_flash in rebug/packages/ if you so wished. :)
Current XMB items are laid out like this:

Power Options:


  • Reload XMB (Optional package built in, install to add)
  • Shut Down (no confirmation)
  • Soft Reboot
  • Hard Reboot
  • Advanced Options
  • >> Reboot into a Database Rebuild
  • >> Reboot into a Filesystem Check
  • >> Reboot into Recovery Mode (NOR)
  • >> Reboot into Recovery Mode (NAND)
  • >> Boot into OtherOS (Optional package built in, install to add)

Thanks to @aldostools and @lmn7 for research on the "force install to" packages. I think I am going to be using them a lot from now on. :)

The only reason it is nice to use an installer, is to have the warnings, and to not have to worry about the user mounting dev_flash.

This version has "Turn Off System" on the top level in the user category, above "Restart Options" like aldostools suggested.

It uses the poweroff plugin in the official way, so confirmation is required.

Small bug with the reload XMB app, had wrong content ID in the xml for the one included.

The one included uses RELOADXM1 and category HM. Fixed now.


P.S. I am claiming category HM for my mods, Sony have not used it in years, no one else has, so why not :)
