"hg/ 505/ opt/ sony/ ebook/ application/ resources/ applicationStart.xml" I do not have an equivalent folder showing on my reader. Show hidden files and folders is checked. I think I am missing something, but maybe this is simply an issue with my limited technical knowledge. I had assumed I could just browse to this file and edit it... is that not the case? |

Any suggestions? When I poped in the SD card it read it, and took me to the menu, but I could not get it to update the file in question... AUGH! And now no matter what I try - resetting it, turning it on and off, ejecting it, I get that error and it will not let me back in to try again! I may have just ruined my reader...

@Scrivartha,
if you havn't figured out already, you will find a 505 ist practically unbrickable. Get the special updater by porkupan/boroda form here and run it. If needed see additional instructions here or check the WIKI pages for unbricking. For your problem there are 3 solutions

what do you like about prs+?
Hi Folks,
I'm a huge fan of alternative firmwares in general (dd-wrt, etc). I recently got a prs-600, and while i'm looking into installing prs+, i'm trying to figure out why i would want to. So, I'd like to put this question out there: what are your favorite features of prs+? thanks! |

As Silverraven but also for PRS600 you can now read directly from unscanned memory card without having to transfer to internal memory...

@kartu....
ive a question about prs+ is it possible that the reader dont "scan" files on a sd card? i mean: sony-reader-software read only files "in the reader" and prs+ read only files on a sd-card (with folder structure)... i hope you understand what i mean. background: i will put my epubs (romane, crime fiction, thriller,..) on the reader (perhaps 10-20) and my pdfs files (reference books, magazines,...) on my sd-card (perhaps 1000-3000 pdf files). and its very confused with the original sony structure to handle so many pdfs and ebooks... i know prs+ isnt available at this time, but i hope for the first version in the near future. regard -> sorry for my terrible english..... |

noxx, it's not only possible, but actually implemented.
Alpha version for 650 should be out within couple of days. |

2.0.6alpha for 950 is (kinda) out.
Install instructions are the same as for 600. Base flasher is still missing, but those who lost patience, could install amutin/boroda(porkupan) firmware, and use corresponding PRS+ launcher. You can download it here. Files are marked "deprecated" because of the missing "base flasher'. Versions for 350/650 as well as "base flashers" should be out this week. |

Kartu, is it posible to implement an alfhabet in the scripts for prs 505 to use a similar function created for the new models (scrollbaralphabet)?
thanks |
