read the first page of the HACKING CONCLUSIONS AND GUIDE thread. Do what you find there. that will take care of everything but device shutdown from what i recall (it may be the 2nd page, but one or the other).. for device shut down, you have to go to the applicationStart.xml file inside the Universal Flasher under files.505...18040\opt\sony\ebook\application\resou rces and edit that file by notepad or whatever, find the part that looks like this <boolean key="0x27-hold" do="doCentre"/> and change it to <boolean key="0x27-hold" do="doDeviceShutdown"/>.

Then run the flasher. make sure you've done all the things from the other thread and this shutdown method before you run the flasher .

If you need to reflash because you forgot something, unzip the stock updater from sony and edit PRSVersion.dat file to say 1 instead of 0 at the very end so you can re-flash to the stock firmware at anytime.
