PRS+ froze PRS-600 reader #300

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Your model / PRS+ version? PRS-600 / PRS+ 2.0.18 LeChuck

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I've installed the base image & old version of PRS+ before, so I updated it 
by copying the PRSPInstaller to the root of internal memory.
2. Restarted ereader, PRS+ was updated (I checked) and seemed to work. 
Following the readme.txt file, I deleted the folder PRSPInstaller from the 
internal memory (it's still there after the update).
3. Unmount the ereader and disconnected the USB cable.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
As soon as the USB was disconnected, the ereader was frozen with message at the 
bottom "1fskin:/l/string". Could not make it work again. I googled the problem 
and found a fix: reset the reader and immediately connect it to PC, then 
delete/rename the file /database/cache/media.xml and restart. The problem was 
fixed, but the reader was reverted to the factory, original firmware (not PRS+).

Everytime I tried to re-install PRS+, the same issue happened. Now I have to 
use the factory firmware.  Any solution?

Starting while connected to USB = "Safe-Mode", first you get the 
USB-Data-Transfer-Screen, after disconnect Standard Sony UI is loaded.

Don't reinstall PRS+. Just do a full shutdown and restart. What happens?

It restarted successfully into PRS+ and now it seems working well.  Thanks!  
However, since the problem persisted everytime I tried to update/re-install 
PRS+, I think it might be a good idea to put the instructions to fix this issue 
on the website or in the README file, just in case others have the same problem.

Hi,

if folder is there even though you've deleted it, internal memory file system 
got corrupt. (normally this is caused by using custom fonts that are mounted 
directly from internal memory) Please run checkdisk or re-format (don't forget 
to save your files)  after booting in safe mode.
