Torch dropped us a line earlier to announce that version 2.3 of Hold+ is now ready for download. This homebrew plugin, in case you weren't around during our previous coverage, allows you to temporarily power down several of the PSP's less important functions by just clicking on the hold switch.
Version 2.3 addresses a bug that was found with a new feature that was added in version 2.2 (quoting Torch's email):
When the PSP was operated in display off mode (after holding UP and turning off Hold), if left idle for the duration of the LCD idle timeout, then after that pressing any key would enable the display. It was supposed to enable the display only on pressing the Screen key.
Hold+ v2.3 was tested on a PSP Slim running on custom firmware 4.01 M33-2. Further details on running and installing this plugin on your handheld are available in the file bundle's readme. You may also want to visit Torch's release thread at the QJ.NET PSP Development Forum in case you're interested in leaving your feedback.
