Reinstall Sony Sw

I tried the PRS+ and ran into some problems. I would like to reinstall the Sony firmware but comes up with same version problem. I noticed in some other posts about the PRS600 and editing the EBOOKUPDATER/Scripts updater.xml. This file seems to be different in the 650 - Wud apprec if someone who has a 650 could look at it and let me know what i need to change. Really apprec. Thanks

bunjibear,

first you can try your PRS in "PRS+ SafeMode".

Shutdown or reset, connect to USB and restart.
You get the USB-transfer screen.
Disconnect.
Unalterd Sony Firmware without PRS+ will start up.
So you can check if your problems are PRS+ related.

There should be no need to tweak any installer, try the unistaller from the project-page here:

PS: please edit your personal info to show the 650, too

PRS+ 650 problems

Mark, not sure what you mean by PRS+ Safemode. I tried the uninstall program but just extracts and nothing happens, must not be recognizing the 650.

Glad it worked out for you,
but Sony-Firmware was never removed from your device.

PRS+ is strictly an addon to the Sony-FW.
"Only" thing the PRS+ installer alters in original FW, is to put in a hook, so that PRS+ can be loaded at startup, and putting on some font-files with extended range of glyphs.
