I am trying to understand how this universal flasher works. It is right on the edge of my technical knowledge so sorry if I am a bit vague about the details. I mainly want to be able to use the joystick to turn pages because I sometimes have a problem with the joint in my left thumb and have often wished I had the option to switch page turning to my my right thumb!. So far I have unzipped the flasher onto an empty SD card and replaced applicationstart.xml with the one which enables joystick page turning (I think) and also the battery fix. I put the card in the reader and wait until the screen appears then I press 5 and after a few mins the screen says "Failure running script..."
Can anyone help me with this one please?
Thanks.
