This software is to be used a GUI replacement for the PSP's XMB, inspired by Android's famous custom rom, CyanogenMod. Take note, this does not allow you to run any android software on a PSP and it never will. The psp doesn't have the hardware capabilities to do that.

The purpose of this software is to allow you to do the anything a PSP can do, with a different UI and additional features like a built in file manager and text viewer and such.

• Font colors are now properly reloaded each time you change a theme.
• Fixed lock screen not being set on startup due to some major code refactoring.

• Use more SCE IO wrappers to slighlty speed up certain processor.
• More appropriate function names.
• Fix RAM menu displaying incorrect values.
• Unified certain functions.
