If you've modded your Japanese "Sapphire Blue" or "Cosmic Red" PCH-1000 OLED Vita using the default HENkaku Ensō tutorial, you might have noticed a battery cap issue at 83%. This happens because the tutorial installs the shellbat.suprx taiHEN plugin, which is meant for the IRS-002 motherboard found in most OLED PSVitas.
The reason behind this 83% limit is that the charge controller on the IRS-1001 motherboard is set to stop charging at 4.05V, whereas the usual IRS-002 motherboard charges up to 4.2V. So, when the battery voltage hits 4.05V, the taiHEN API returns 83% as the battery life.
To address this, the original shellbat plugin was modified to adjust the displayed percentage from 0 to 83 to a full 0 to 100 range.
Note that this tweak only affects what you see on your screen; it doesn't change the actual charging cutoff voltage or your battery life. It's just for cosmetic purposes.
Note: Before using, make sure you have a brick protection (EmergencyMount or something similar). Use it at your own risk.
Installation
Copy the shellbat.suprx file to ux0:tai/shellbat.suprx.
Open ux0:tai/config.txt and add the plugin under the *main section:
*main ux0:tai/shellbat.suprx
Save the changes and reboot your Vita.
