How to upgrade to 1.3 French version from 1.1 US?

How to upgrade to 1.3 French version from 1.1 US?

Can someone post a short guide and links to files?

I have UniversalUpdater and PRSCustomiser. Did the font upgrade a while ago.

Now what?

to answer my own question

1. Download firmware 1.3 from here

http://rapidshare.com/files/172723086/firmware1.3.zip

2. Download Universal Updater from here

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26831

3. Unzip UniversalUpdater to "any folder".

4. Unzip firmware1.3.zip to the same "any folder" and RENAME it to "new_opt.img"

5. Copy the contents of "any folder" to an sd card and put it in the PRS-505.

6. On the PRS screen choose number 4 (you need to copy the firmware to the device)

7. When this is done choose "Flash new firmware".

8. Wait for it to complete and reboot.

DONE!
