Yay! A User Manual!

Is it possible to add the installation instructions with pictures to the User Manual? Installation is where I ran into problems, once installed everything else was pretty intuitive for me.

I also had problems with the font section. Zelda sent me to this post which got it up and running for me.

Uhm, pictures, maybe later, but manual is up and running on projects' wiki:
http://code.google.com/p/prs-plus/wiki/InstallGuide

Russian version (by Faeron) has a couple of pictures:

I'll think about where and how to include linked fonts info.

That's the one I used when I was installing. I'm just one of those more visual people who can understand better and faster with pictures (that's why I created the Visual Kindle Guide). There are probably more people who would find it helpful.

Thanks.

Hi again,

during the holidays I thought of some more helpful page index modes (page left, page left %), so I added them. I also included a setting for the menu index and renamed the section to "Menu & Page Index".

Great job on the release candidate, everything seems to be working great so far. The only exception is, that the up and down keys in the included Mahjong game don't seem to work correctly while selecting tiles. Instead of up/down they move the cursor two tiles to the left/right.

It is very nice to see your continued work on this, thank you very much

If I have PRS Customizer installed, can I just overwrite it with this? Or do I have to downgrade to a clean 1.1.00.18040 firmware, and how do you do that? I thought you couldn't just downgrade.

I'l have a look, thanks.
The game is not written by me, I also find key bindings strange, but it was intended to be that way.

Sterf
Your prs customizer installed stuff will be overwritten, you don't have to downgrade.

I bricked it though, although it might be because I didn't have a full battery or something. Well, atleast I now have a clean 1.1.00.18040 firmware. Trying again when it's fully charged.

Hi all, I just uploaded the German manual for PRS+. Now we have English, German and Russian. Awesome.
I have to say though that I also wanted to make the english page bilingual. After putting some 30 minutes in, google kicked me out and my changes were not saved on the project page. So I just went with putting the link to the German version.

So here it is:
English Manual PRS+ http://wiki.prs-plus.googlecode.com/...Plus_10_en.pdf
Deutsche Anleitung PRS+ http://wiki.prs-plus.googlecode.com/...Plus_10_de.pdf
Russian Manual PRS+ http://code.google.com/p/prs-plus/wiki/UserManual?wl=ru

Hope it helps (well, at least people can see in detail what they get before they install).

Have a great night guys

I do not work. Neither removing the txt extension (only .js). Can you upload the original java file?

Hi,

I downloaded the file from the forum, renamed it to PageIndex.js and copied it to the addons folder, where the old file was. It works for me though :/

Could it be that you just unplugged the USB cable after copying the file? For me this sometimes has the effect that some files get truncated because they haven't been written to the flash storage completely yet. It is always better to use the "Safely remove hardware" feature of windows to eject the reader.

Other than that I'm at a loss here.

I'll include this in 1.0 release, no worries.

Awesome. Seems someone really read the manual

The thing I don't like about writing manuals is, that most people don't read them (well, that includes me, I have to admit).

I'll look into that and probably I include the installation within the manual so we get something like a complete user documentation. I would just need someone to actually try it out. My reader just works so nice now that I wouldn't want to revert back to original fw just to try out.
I would rather write it up, have someone try it, discuss what's wrong in the wording and so and then integrate it as a new section within the manual.

Anyone wants to volunteer?
