BlinkLED v1.1 Released


Submitted by greg; November 16, 2011
Did y'all know this? I mean it's obvious and stares you right in the face, but I hadn't realized it until now... Sony changed up the WiFi LED on firmware 6.20 and later; on said firmwares, when an active WiFi connection is established, the LED remains a solid green -- no blinking at all, leaving you unsure if data is actually being transferred over the interface. Prior to 6.20 things were different, the WiFi LED would blink green when there is activity, which I like better. This plugin, written by yuh0q223, returns you to the pre-6.20 WiFi-blinking-LED days. Once again props to bsanehi for always being in the know and submitting the goods. If anyone cares to follow suit, know you can earn a Dashhacks t-shirt for submitting worthwhile news. Activate BlinkLED in game.txt and vsh.txt. Download: BlinkLED v1.1 - source: @yuh0q223 via dashhacks member news

Why? Why? Would you possibly want that, you wouldn't know where the wifi is on or not and you'd be constantly looking at the side of the psp, just to check whether it is on or not.

IT BLINKS ALWAYS, ALTHOUGH I DON'T TRANSFER OR SEND ANYTHING! We need fix update fast... This is useless, if it blinks always. It must be blink only, when data transferring, such as before with FW 6.10 and lower...

Sony changed it on firmware 6.00, not 6.20!

You are wrong. I myself have noticed also that the Wi-Fi LED does not blink, after the firmware 6.20 and later is installed. It blinks with firmware 6.10 and older.

Here works, but it blinking all the time, although data does not transfer. Poor plugin, if this does not get an update, which fix this problem.
