Hi!

I just got my PRS-T1 and read through pages and pages of posts and decided to go for rooting and this lovely home screen mod - I upgraded from a PRS-350 and loved PRS+, so I wanted that customization back.

I am running Sony's latest firmware, (1.04...etc) and while I saw some folks had issues, I figured I'd give it a shot, because problems seemed hit-and-miss.

Unfortunately (but not exactly unexpectedly,) I'm one of the people with issues. As previously mentioned, the home app loads, but when I try to go to Page 2, I get the force quit message. Have tried restarting and reset, but it keeps crashing.

The original Sony home app still works just fine, so my reader's not exactly broken, it's just that the home mod isn't working. I'm looking for a bit of advice:

-- Would completely removing the original Sony Home App help? (I'm not even sure if I can, and I'm hesitant to do that anyway, but thought I'd ask)

-- Would some process of uninstalling/unrooting/resetting/rerooting clear the problem? I don't imagine there is any way to roll back to 1.03 firmware that this mod plays nice with?

-- I installed the mod on Win7 64-bit, though I rooted with WinXP 32 - would that have anything to do with it? Should I just try reinstalling the home mod over top of the old one again? (do I do that through running the flash_reader.bat again?)

-- If nothing can be done to fix it, it's no good to me, so how do I completely remove it? I am familiar with unrooted Android, so I know I can go into Apps, but I see two "Home" apps installed and I can see no way to differentiate which one is which (they don't have the handy "ebook.home" and "ebook_mod.home" on the app page.)

Thanks so much for any help - all of you on the mobileread forums have been lifesavers with my Readers!
