Try to connect external power supply, wait for an hour, reset, power switch, while blinks connect usb cable. Doing so I've unbricked mine. If succeed, run update again (changing in updater its version number).

Guardian--
You might just need to turn the clock on. To do this, from the main menu, choose Settings/About. On the bottom of the screen you should see "clock off"; "clock on" or "clock am/pm". To switch between the options, hit the 0 key. Hope this helps-- dordale |

Yea, tried that, no clock text at all either in the main menu or in the about screen, no page forward or back either.
Seems like the flash went ok per the responses on the flasher menu, but it never seems to update the flash. G |

I flashed from an old hacked firmware to the new firmware from Sony, everything turned back to original, then i flashed with this customizer using a custom name and info and all options but the joystick next page. The enter to power, clock, and new icons work, and the next page does not as i customized it, but i don't have any text for my name, email or phone.
I Flashed using a 32 mb Sd card. By Re-extracting the package onto the SD card and rerunning the customizer, I was able to see files.505.1.1.00.18040/opt/sony/ebook/application/resources/ applicationStart.xml, scripts/main.xml and the text icon png file under scripts. I believe I've done everything correctly (fully filling out the information and all), but I don't have the identification information. I'm willing to reflash with some method but i don't know which way is the best (using the universal flasher and going to firmware update or reflashing the with sony updater after changing the version number) and i don't know what to look for when reflashing and customizing. Thanks, Frog29 |

JeffElkins, look at this variation of icons to give the prscustomizer:

Frog29, sounds to me like you've covered all the bases. You are looking at the top level Settings/About (0,6) screen, correct? I just reflashed my 505, leaving the joystick page forward unchecked and I see the name,email & address w/o problems. The personalization info is the last item on the About screen, after the Bitstream info. What do you see on that page? |

*ahem* I feel quite stupid now :P
It's there exactly as it should be... However at least I have a kind of excuse... I'd assumed it did something like this https://www.mobileread.com/forums/att...8&d=1217425473 From https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...8&postcount=21 Because it did not make sense to me for the info to be hidden a few menus deep where its only useful for proving ownership I had thought it was like that so its identifiable if found by a kind soul On that topic, would it perchance be possible to automatically write text like in the screenshot? Or integrate some way for a custom theme to be done in this auto installer, or just tell me how Thanks, and sorry for the confusion, Frog29 |
