The reason you are having trouble finding any newer firmware is that the T1 has been long discontinued and Sony has long since gotten out of the Reader business. TBH, a newer firmware isn't going to help. The solution is to buy another Reader such as a Kobo Libra 2.

I have a T1 (sits unused in a closet) and I did move on from it to a Kobo Aura H2O. The T1 was becoming not all that useful with new eBooks that have hi-res graphics.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I did everything imaginable, even patched recovery package from PC and also from Sd card. Nothing works. I should throw it against a wall I guess.
