Thanks dwanthny, and thanks for taking the time to respond.

For anybody else having a similar issue, I had made the schoolboy error of copying the 'Universal Flasher 2.1' folder in it's entirety to the SD card before carrying out step 3. You do, of course, need to copy the folders within that folder to the SD card, not the folder itself

The only issue I have now is that there are no icons for some of the options on the menu screens once PRS+ is installed. Does anybody have a version of kbookicons.png that addresses this?

Kartu, is the shell going to be incorporated in the next release of PRS+?

Thanks

How to name this keyboard not to offend any nation?

If you include the rest of the letters of this picture, so in this case it would valid for more languages, you could name it as internacional keyboard.

surquizu, thanks, but those are the ones I used and I still see no icons for some menu items. Have I done something wrong?

International is a bit misleading, if only variations of latin characters are used. How about western or something like that? I'd expect an international keyboard to have greek characters, and cyrillic, and.... the options are endless.
But it's just a name, I don't think anyone will be offended

It's not a big deal to have language specific keyboards. Be it Spanish, Georgian or Czech. User will choose which keyboards from a list he wants to use.

I think it's simple and fits everyone.

Why have multi-language keyboards?

I am using PRS+ on my 505 (had it installed for a month or so) and I have started getting random reboots.

I have only had two so far, but they have both happened in the last three days.

I am not saying this is a PRS+ thing, because I truly do not know if it is, but if anyone has had a similar experience and corrected it, I would be grateful to know how you did it.

***UPDATE***
It might be the ebook I am reading. I am going to downlad it again and see if that works.

You could also boot in a "safe" mode, by connecting your reader to USB during startup. In this case PRS+ doesn't start. And check if you still have problem with that book.

I haven't had random reboots since I switched from LRF to ePub as my ebook format.

On the rare occasion my reader reboots the reboot is never random. It is always associated with a place in the epub that has code that my 505 doesn't like and it will reboot every time I go back to that code.

The last time this happened I opened the offending epub in Sigil and took a look at the code in the area where It would reboot my reader. Then using my best "one of these things is not like the other" logic I removed something, saved the file and it worked.

I honestly don't recall what I removed but it didn't look right and removing it fixed the book.

I use US-International because I mostly type in English but don't want to keep French layout installed for rare cases when I need to type é or ö.

Deleting files* is not possible

*with the tool (delete book + press bookmark)

I do this after each book I read. This only means that it works fine for me. I thought I upgraded to 1.1.3 but my about screen says 1.1.2rc so I guess I haven't. I'll upgrade and delete a book to see if the version change affects things.

Nothing happens when you press bookmark?
Did you try rebooting the reader (it's quite easy to corrupt the file system)?

PS
Update:
Rechecked it on 1.1.3, works fine.
