PS2 Tool Creation Request

I'm no good at coding at all so I'm coming here to request a simple .elf to be made please.

Is it possible to create an application where hex line 310 of the NVRAM is written to all 0s. The purpose of this is to hard reset the PS2s internal settings to factory.

For a while I've been doing this manually by extracting the NVRAM with LensChanger and making the changes in a hex editor on my computer but this process is tedious. Often times I need to do this to lot of systems at once so this being a basic .elf which does the hex changes itself would be so much better.

I would be greatly appreciative if someone could code something like this.

Thanks
 
What "hex line" means? When You pointing to some point/range in binary file, You must specify address like e.g 0x310 (if I guess right what You have in mind) and length (how much bytes You want, in this case, overwrite by zeroes).

Such application already exist and it is... any hex editor. You can do it from GUI or CLI level. But if You want it on PS2, then no, there is no hex editor for PS2, no one which could read NVRAM directly offering editing.

Ah that's a shame.

It was worth a shot. Thanks anyway

Yeah I think I meant 0x310. My knowledge on coding is limited. All I know is to replace every byte next to the 310 with 0s lol

I sell refurbished PS2s. I clear all the internal settings (changing 0x310 to all 0s in a hex editor) so it gets reset to the initial opening screen. It's not that important I guess but it's a fun novelty for who ever buys the PS2.

There's a full disclaimer that it isn't new. Just refurbished lol. I even say in the description that I reset the internal settings to factory.

I'll probably delete this thread later. I suppose it was a little cheeky of me to request this...
