Hi, I own a PRS-505, firmware: 1.1.00.18040. I think I've successfully flashed the device with PRSCustomizer 1.04 (Linux) with the next settings:
- firmware: 1.1USA
- language: English
- icon set: IconSet2
- fonts: unicode

I'd like to read Hungarian novels on the device. Some Hungarian characters are not part of the latin1 (ISO-8859-1) character set, but can only be found in latin2 (ISO-8859-2). Basically the device could not display those characters. The document I used to test is a utf8 encoded ebook generated by the last version of calibre.

Interestingly after the flashing displaying the author names and also the history is correct, but the text is not... getting question marks.

So, the very same text gets displayed correctly when it appears in the history, but wrong when the content is displayed.

I have a feeling this device has 2 font sets and I have replaced only the one which is less important to me.

What can I do? I'd highly appreciate any help.
