I just installed PRS+ on Sony PRS-600. Very nice piece of software, thank you. And chess puzzles make me smile…
Still, I faced ugly problem during the installation: after flashing with the base flasher and disconnecting the reader, it entered the death cycle: reboot, turn into refreshing database mode, crash and reboot (empty screen followed by "Opening book" screen), turn into refreshing database, … Installation of PRS+ has not helped, revert to the original software has not helped too.
I finally resolved the problem by removing all the books from the device (it still properly connected via USB, I deleted books using Calibre) – afterwards it started running properly (also when I put some books back). BTW: earlier I tried removing some part of books, then instead of rebooting the reader started to freeze on the library refreshing screen.
I doubt it is possible to diagnose what happened (I suspect flashing triggered some deeper kind of database rebuild, and some of my books turned invalid or triggered some sony bug) but wanted to make this note in case somebody else also faces this problem.
So: in case after flashing the reader starts rebooting or freezing on the database refresh screen, one can try removing books from the device.
