Sony Reader hacks collection

I thought it was time to bring all hacks together in one topic because I don't know about you guys but I was really losing overview.

Please use Bob Russell's instructions how to use the hacks.

Usage of all hacks is at your own risk!


There are two types of files here. There is applicationStart.xml and main.xml. You could use either one or a combination of two. The hacks that need the two files together to function will come with both modified files.

applicationStart goes here:
\files\opt\sony\ebook\application\resources\applic ationStart.xml

main.xml goes here:
\files\opt\sony\ebook\application\resources\script s\main.xml

Please don't hesitate to ask if you feel not sure about what you're doing.

So here we go.

Comments: This hack has both the main.xml and applicationStart.xml file. So all your current hacks will be replaced with this one. Inside a book the default will be link navigation with the joystick up and down (the letter "L" will be showed next to the page count). To select history mode hold the size button for a few seconds until the message "History nav. is on." appears in the status bar. After the first page flip the message will disappear and it will show the letter "H" to indicate it's in history mode. To go back hold the size button.


Hack includes: Direct page control in books, menu, TOC, bookmarks and history. Clock in status bar.
Lose function: Percentage page jump inside book with numeric keys. Numeric access in menu, TOC, bookmarks and history. Ten pages jump when holding next and previous button.
