This system module handles the system notifications.

The maximum number of notifications that can be stored/handled is 100, hence the intended range for notificationIDs is 0-99.

News module NAND savedata[edit]

  • "news.db": This is the main save-file, the filesize is fixed to 0x2BD0-bytes.
  • "newsXXX.txt" This is the message data for this notification, where XXX is the decimal notification-index in the below headers-array. The filesize should be <= <size listed here>, since that's the max size read by the notifications applet.
  • "newsXXX.mpo" This is the MPO data for this notification if any, where XXX is the decimal notification-index in the below headers-array. The filesize should be <= <size listed here>, since that's the max size read by the notifications applet.

news.db[edit]

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x10 Header, see below.
0x10 0x2BC0 (100 * 0x70) Array of headers for each notification.

Header[edit]

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x1 Must be 0x1 "is valid".
0x1 0x1 Flags
0x2 0xE Normally zero?

Flags[edit]

Bit Description
0 Set by news module when handling BOSS notifications and the AddNotification commands. This indicates that there's "unread" notifications, the notifications applet clears this once all notifications have been "read".
1 Set by news module when handling CECD notifications.

News module startup[edit]

The actual main function called by main() does the following:

  • srv_init()
  • Registers services "news:u" and "news:s".
  • Initializes the service session handle for "ptm:sysm".
  • Loads 4 handles from somewhere, which gets used with svcReplyAndReceive later.
  • Does notificationID state init, uses SRV:GetNotificationSemaphore, then subscribes to srv notifications 0x104 and 0x106.
  • <Some func calls>
  • Here PTMSYSM:SetInfoLEDPattern is used.
  • Some state init is done, then the usual svcReplyAndReceive loop begins.

Errors[edit]

Error code Description
0xC8A12805 The news.db or notification header data for the specified notificationID is not set(the specified notification doesn't exist).

Title Versions[edit]

Title version System version Changes
