sony reader themes
is there a thread on mobile read that we can all share the themes we've created? that would be awesome.
![]() also has anyone edited all the parts in the kBookAssets.png to see exactly where they go on the reader? and which parts can be edited without getting tiled all over? Last edited by mineralpoint; 02-13-2009 at 03:22 PM. |

That error suggests it's from the 'setup' app Jeff's written. I'm not really familiar with it, but there's a few things you could check/try...
Check that you're up-to-date with the WinXP service packs/updates? All it seems to need are the Windows Common Controls, though... Try downloading an earlier version (1.03) and see if that works? Failing that, you could try booting a Linux Live-CD and try the Linux version! :-) Other than that, take a look at the documentation, say what settings you're after & I'm sure someone will run it & send you the generated config to copy to your SD card. |

I tried to customize a reader with the uk firmware. result: hanging on the startup screen.
problem with unbricking: if you follow the instructions unbricking with the us firmware won't work, as it will show that the firmware 1.1... you try to flash is older then the uk 1.2.... solution: edit the file as described in the unbricking tutorial, but: chancge the seceond numer instead of the last: instead of 11something make it 12... or 14... something. this will enable the flashing as the updater will think now you have a newer version. when the prs works again, you need to change the verion number to 1.1 again to be able to update it in the future. this is simple: just put in the sdcard you tried to cutomize from, and choose the option to change to the firmware update mode. on your computer restore the original version number, or simply use the unchanged update. the reader will show version 000000 so you can flash the original us firmware with the number 1.1. do the whole customization process agian, but this time choose the us version, not the uk - and you see: it works ![]() why i wrote it? well, i could not find anything that would describe the situation i was in and save me some time, so i hope if it happens to someone too, he'll see how to get out ![]() |

I can report that the 1.03 kit (available from the download site when you change the dropdown to "All downloads") works for me, so would suggest you give that a try, till Jeff has a chance to investigate! |

![]() I'm unable to reproduce this error for either 1.1 or 1.2 firmware using a fresh download of 1.04 (Windows). I need to know exactly what options are being chosen and I''d preferably like to have a zipped up folder of your installation. |

By zipping up, I mean take the folder in which you iinstalled PRSCustomizer, compress (zip) it and send it to me at prscustomizer (at) gmail.com
I just created a German customization using both standard and unicode fonts w/o a problem. |
