What's the plan? At the end of our previous blog post, we got PreBoard to show its UI. But we had no idea if getting SpringBoard to work would even be possible, since we didn’t have SEP emulation. Still, we wanted to see how far we could get without it. Before SpringBoard could show anything, we had plenty of issues to fix.

Engineer creates first custom motherboard for 1990s PlayStation console

Last week, electronics engineer Lorentio Brodesco announced the completion of a mock-up for nsOne, reportedly the first custom PlayStation 1 motherboard created outside of Sony in the console's 30-year history.

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s first One UI 8 beta allowed larger widgets (4×4) on the home screen, but the feature had inconsistent functionality.
