Help Me Please- 505 wont update firmware
Hello...while I have been lurking around here for quite some time this is my first post. I finally got up the courage to try the PRScustumizer after reading the entire thread on it and thinking I would ok.
I had firmware version 1.1.01.25200. which was not supported so I did option 7 to try and reload the firmware from sony to 1.1.00.18040. I followed all of the instructions on sony's site. My reader was fully charged. But now I have been stuck on "installing new software" for around 3 hours. What do I do now? Shouldnt have messed around with it since I have never had any problems until now. And I was in the middle of a REALLY good book too. thanks in advance for any help!! K. |

Check out the following thread on PRS+
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=64510 The installation manual as PDF you can find here (you can also contact me via e-mail which is noted within the installation manual). Here you should be able to find something about downgrading the firmware: http://code.google.com/p/prs-plus/wiki/InstallGuide |
