Hacking [Release] noled - plugin to turn off the home button led

[reprep]

noled is a simple plugin to turn off the home button led of PS Vita. Especially useful at night.


It is a kernel plugin so enable it in kernel section of your config.txt.

copy noled.skprx to tai folder (ux0:/tai)
edit config.txt:
*KERNEL
ux0:tai/noled.skprx

after that, reboot your vita and restart henkaku.
v1.0 notes:

Spoiler

Unfortunately the led will be back glowing when resumed from standby etc, i couldn't solve this with my noob coding skills. Also only tested on fat Vita.

If you are interested, ksceLedSetMode function seems very similar to sceLedSetMode function of PSP, you can try to find what you can do with arguments. http://uofw.github.io/uofw/group__LED.html

I am posting this with the hope that someone will take over and find a better solution like hooking the function etc.
any findings about ksceLedSetMode function is welcome. http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=48019

v1.1 is up, redownload it from attachments. It hooks the function, so led doesn't turn again, bye bye blue light, you won't be missed. Red light when charging is still there.

Source is included in the attachment, have fun.
All credits to @xerpi, all i did was to compile the source.

v1.1 is up and it hooks the function so led doesn't get turned on by the OS. Perfect solution.
