PRS-T1 Firmware update request

Good afternoon.
I recently (about a month ago) bougth two PRS-T1 readers (one as a gift) and I was very happy. I wanted a reader since I first knew of them and a T1 since it came out. I got a job as an intern engineer for the summer and saved to finally buy my gadget of dreams. I actually wanted to wait a little to see if a promotion came up because I lost the "free Harry Potter book combo", but I wanted to use the Reader for my school books and when the "almost free cover" promotion came up I inmediately ordered it.
Fast-forward a few weeks and I'm more than satisfied with my reader. Tablets are very common now, but everyone that sees the e-Ink screen working is thrown back in amazement. I carry it with me at all times (I hold it under my arm because I know keeping it in a bag has the risk of braking the screen) and my reading rate has improved vastly.
I've had the chance to find some areas of improvement on the Reader in the few weeks that I've had it with me and some of those were: being able to post in Facebook my reading status and maybe cite a phrase; and a native Evernote app, because while using the mobile site with the browser to view notes is actually neat, navigation and finding notes isn't, and neither is creating new notes. I supposed these were just remote dreams, knowing that just because you hope for, it doesn't mean a company will implement those features.
Well, imagine my surprise. New reader (it looks very similar to the T2 so no regrets there) with specifically the two functions I spent a month thinking would be great to have. Maybe they were so obvious it was inevitable, but still. Additionally, it seems too soon to drop support of the T1 after less than a year into its lifecycle.
So this is my request to Sony from a true fanboy: Please release a firmware update for the PRS-T1 to add the Facebook and Evernote features. I'd also suggest to remove the Google Books button and change it for one of the above or even a Wikipedia dedicated button, since I discovered that using the Reader is the best device for hours-long Wiki reading sessions.
Please consider my humble request. Maybe it turns out to be very easy to get done. Maybe not. Either way I'll keep enjoying the best e-reading experience with the best e-reader in the market and for that I'm very thankful.

  • Firmware Update Request - TRUE HDR Function on Cam...

    Hey for any Nokia folks reading this..
    One awesome feature on Android I still miss was the HDR Pro application that would take 3 photos at three different exposure values, then merge into one and then allowed tweaks to contrast and saturation.
    Can you guys put this on the request list for an upcoming camera firmware update?
    Programs that do HDR as a post process are **bleep** - there is no way to really effectively mimic the exposure combination and tight resolution by merging three actual photos. Glaring omission from a great phone (I have Lumia 800).
    Thinking this could be added either to the camera or to Creative Design as that can already take panorama shots through it's own camera interface?
    Thanks

  • Volume leveling firmware update request

    I once had an old mp3 player that would automatically adjust all songs to match an equal playback volume level. However, on the iPod Classic 80 GB model, my songs play at unequal levels; I always have to turn the volume up for songs ripped from audio CDs. Could Apple release a software update to add the auto playback volume leveling to the iPod? Could this be included in Firmware version 1.1.3?

    Jeff,
    I have downloaded the MP3/AACgain. What folder can I find the tracks in my library that are currently stored on my ipod? Can I run the tracks through this program without having to sync them back to my ipod? Please let me know. Thanks!
    The program is run on the songs in the iTunes library, then the songs are re-synced to the iPod.
    As far as I know, it can't be run on songs already on the iPod (at least iVolume, which is what I use can't).

  • Submitting firmware update requests for the HAP-Z1ES?

    I was wondering if there is a link to where users can submit requests for future firmware upgrades.
    It would be great if in the Audio Settings menu of the HAP-Z1ES, there could be a feature that allows you to change the phase settings of the two d/a converts (from "normal" to "invertred", and vice versa).  Stereophile's latest issue reviews this player and mentions that the phase of the L/R channels is inverted.  
    This is something that you can changed via firmware, as the d/a chips in this unit have the feature of being software controlled and switching the phase is a feature of these chips.
    Thank you.

  • Firmware Update Request (Zen Mic

    I'd like to start off by saying that I am thoroughly pleased with my Zen Micro. My only real problem with it is the Music Library. I would really like to be able to browse by Album Artist, not just artist or album. If you use WMP0 you will know what I mean. It's really annoying to have have of an artist's music in one section and the other half with his featured artists or collaborators. An Album Artist feature would make browsing much easier and more efficient IMHO.

    Alrichi,
    If your player already showing the exact same firmware version as with the download then you would already have the same firmware version. You do not need to update again.

  • DR16-B(2): More frequent firmware update request

    First of all sorry for opening a new thread by my first post. I often hate it too at other forums.
    As indicated in the title I suggest support to make new firmwares for the BenQ 1620 (Pro) available for the DR16-B(2) clone available sooner.
    Right now B7T9 for the BenQ is a month old and proven to be a good FW. Why not rename it into an MSI firmware in two weeks?
    I don't want to crossflash this device to a BenQ just because the firmware releases are late.
    Thanks in advance:
    erdoke (otherwise a happy user of this MSI product)

    okarm,
    As this is an English website, please kindly translate what you've written in your language to English or else I'll removed the post you made to prevent confusions.
    edroke,
    As this is a P2P forum, it is very unlikely that the MSI engineers visit here on regular basis. You are always welcome to share ideas and exprience you've tried with the rest of the forum members.

  • Firmware update suggestions/requests

    Can anybody guide me to a place on the forums where firmware update suggestions/requests can be made for the various Canon cameras, where Canon might take notice of such suggestions/requests? 
    Christo

    Thank you, perhaps I should clarify...I bought a new Canon G7X and assumed that Canon might release some firmware updates in future, if there are enough suggestions from users in a forum like this....sort of a wish list if you like.
    I actually frequent the forums of another brand, where they have something like that, and it seems that the manufacturers of that brand watch such things on the forums of that brand, as quiet a few of suggestions made by users are eventually incorporated into firmware updates...

  • Lock Code request after firmware update on E71

    After I updated successful (message was displayed by software updater) my phone, it makes a restart.
    And asked for the "Lock Code". I never used the lock code function and I never changed it before.
    The default Lock Code "12345" mentioned within the documentation is not working.
    Re-installation of the firmware is not working as I am unable to reinstall "PC Suite Support" due to the fact that I am not able to confirm the installation on my phone. I went to the Nokia shop and they told me they have to sent the cell phone in for repair and this can takes up to four weeks. This is totally unacceptable. Until today I was I fan of Nokia phones but this has changed dramatically.

    Hi
    I also experienced the same problem. Phone was working perfectly prior to Firmware Update.
    I had never used or changed the lock code. Initially I thought everything was fine because the 
    Firmware Update was reported to have been a success.
    I then went through the process of selecting language (English) and setting date and time.
    However, after doing all this I was then asked for a Lock Code.
    I was a little bemused but tried the default '12345'. This did not work.
    I tried all the other usual defaults; '0000', '1111', '1234' etc, still no joy.
    After a little swearing I decided to ring the Nokia help line. After explaining the problem I was advised to go to my nearest Care Centre. I was also told that if the cause of my problem was as a result of the 'faulty' firmware update then they should do it free of charge.
    Off to the Care Centre then (30 mile round trip)!!!! They rigged it up to their 'kit' and confirmed that 
    the Lock Code had not been changed and was still set to '12345'. They could not access the phone 
    either. They now have my phone and are going to try and sort it and if they cannot sort it will be
    sending off to Nokia. This should then be sorted under warranty (although I would argue the cause
     of the problem is a glitch in the Firmware Update and not a fault with the phone).
    Let's hope that when I get the phone back it will all be hunky dory!!!
    It's also worth noting that even though I could not access the phone directly by using its own keys
    I could use all the functions when rigged up to my computer through Nokia PC Suite. I could access
    all contacts, messages, calendar etc. I was also able to send and receive SMS. If the phone was
    locked then surely I shouldn't have been able to do this????
    Hope the above sheds some light on your problem. Just be sure that you are not fobbed off by 
    either the help line or the 'techies' in the shop. At the end of the day if you have not messed about 
    with the lock code before the firmware update you should be able to get it sorted free of charge if 
    the phone is still under warranty. GOOD LUCK!!!! 

  • Request Battery Firmware Update Utilty for Lenovo B490

    I use a power manager in my laptop B490, my battery 6cell . Design capacity 48Wh but reduce to 40.40Wh , and full charge capacity 42.82Wh. I will to restore design capacity my battery but Change the option from "Automatically optimize for my battery lifespan" to the "Always fully charge" not affect.
    and i try download Battery Firmware Update Utility , not useful for my batter FRU P/N  : 45N1049.
    Please help me :x

    Von so einem Quatsch, den der so genannte Techniker angeraten hat, würde ich auf jedem Fall absehen. Auf der Supportseite von Lenovo ist eindeutig zu entnehmen, dass die BIOS Versionen 1.25/1.20 aus dem Jahr 2012 und die 1.15/1.17 aus dem Jahr 2013 stammen. Ich denke, dass es sich um unterschiedliche Geräte handelt und entsprechend eine bestimmte BIOS Reihe unterstützt wird.
    Im Readme steht:
    Versions 1.25 (for BIOS ID 6Zxxxxxx-based computer)
    1.20 (for BIOS ID 6Yxxxxxx-based computer)
    und
    Versions 1.15 (for Machine types: 0217 and 0250)
    1.17 (for Machine type: 0221)
    Ich denke, dass ich mit meiner Vermutung richtig liege.
    Wo du eine BIOS Version 1.18 beziehen kannst, das weiß ich nicht. Vermutlich gibt es keine neuere Version. Ich würde auch nicht krampfhaft probieren eine falsche aufzuspielen.
    Meine Frage ist, wie lange die Akku, so im Normalbetrieb reicht?

  • HT1237 Searching for an EFI Firmware update to enable Lion Internet Recovery on MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010)

    Hi All,
    My Mid-2010 Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch started having random kernel panics lately (more than 1 month of random kernel panics now), usually associated with request such as "open new tab in Safari" etc.
    Since I installed 2x4GB RAM modules from Crucial when I bought my MBP (they are +- 2 years old now) and also exchanged my DVD-drive for an extra SSD that now runs the system (fully updated 10.7.4) I have a feeling that those kernel panics might be HW related.
    I wanted to run Apple Hardware Test but found out that it is no longer supported on Lion. Since I don't have any optical drive to install AHT from (also I don't have the CDs with me atm), I found out that I can install an EFI Firmware update that enables internet-based (?) AHT.
    At http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4904# , the link from MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010) links to MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 2.6 which is for Early 2010 models only and doesn't allow me to run the installation process. I'm looking for an EFI update to enable Apple Hardware Test on my Mid-2010 Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch.
    Is there an update that can do this? Is there a wrong hyperlink on Apple page or am I searching for a wrong update?
    Also, even though this should probably be in a separate topic, can anyone please point me to the right direction for a good Apple Kernel Panic how-to-read-those topic?
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Hey Cris from London,

  • 27 inch thunderbolt display blacks out after Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2

    Bought 2 new 27 inch TB displays for two different machines and after a couple of days the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2 appears on my Mac Pro with one of the displays installed. So I install the firmware update.  Now my display blacks out periodically and I keep getting Graphic Display Errors with a request to sent the errors to Apple. Running a 32 GB Mac Pro (late 2013 circular style) I have three monitors connected (two 20 inch cinema displays and the new 27 inch display). This machine is supposed to be able to handle three 4k monitors or 6 standard TB displays.  I've seen the posts about the blacking out with this monitor but I didn't have any problems before the firmware update and now I've got them pretty regularly.  I had the blacking out problem on an earlier monitor and took one of the monitors back and Apple gave me another one and this is the replacement.  Same problem, but this one only started after the update. I'm hoping someone from Apple reads these messages and can let me know what's up.
    BTW, I also have an older 27 inch Apple monitor that ran perfectly on this machine so I'm disappointed that I spent all this money and now get the blacking out issue.
    Mac Pro (Late 2013)
    Processor 3.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5
    Memory 32 BG
    Graphics AMD FirePro D300 2048 MB

    I have my Thunderbolt display connected to my MacBook Pro and have been experiencing the same issue, getting worse over time.  The folks at my local Apple store did not know what to do about it.  So, I looked around and tried different thing.
    The one thing that seems to be working is to System Preferences > Build-in Display > uncheck “Automatically adjust brightness.”
    I hope this helps.

  • Where do I get an SMC Firmware Update for my 21.5 inch Late 2009 iMac?

    Hello Apple Support Communities,
    I have a 21.5 inch, Late 2009 Intel iMac. Currently it is running OSX Lion. It is also running Bootcamp with Windows 7 Professional Installed. Recently the Hard drive crashed on me and I ordered a new generic Hitachi from an Apple Reseller. I took all the precautions and asked all the questions, but when I finished the hard drive replacement, the fans within the iMac started running on High. The other people in my office Hate this. I did some research and found that there is a firmware update for the SMC that I should be installing. I looked on the webpage where apple directs you to find out if you need this update, but I can't find my exact specs on the page (here is the page for reference: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237) I can only find an update for the 27 inch model. I tried running that one and the system tells me "This software is not supported on your system."
    Here are the specs that the page requested me to find:
    Model Identifier:          iMac10,1
    Boot ROM Version:          IM101.00CC.B00
    SMC Version (system):          1.52f9
    Someone please help, this has been bugging me for a while.

    I took all the precautions and asked all the questions,
    Then I trust you saw this before you did the replacement. Apparently, it's not just a question of getting a drive from the same manufacturer to use with the proprietary cable.
    http://blog.macsales.com/2751-proprietary-cable-can-put-the-brakes-on-upgrading- late-09-imacs
    It's acting as if the temp sensor is not connected. I have it bookmarked amidst thousands of bookmarks but can't remember the name right now. There is some program out there that, in the absence of getting data from the internal sensor, will regulate the fan speed based on the SMART temp. If I think of it, I'll post back.
    Here it is. It's meant for the 2011 iMac Apple drives, but I don't see why it wouldn't work in your situation.
    http://www.hddfancontrol.com/
    BTW, I think John Galt is thinking of the 2011 iMac drives, not the late 2009s, which are not quite as impossible.

  • *** E51 GREAT PHONE BUT NEED A FIRMWARE UPDATE... ...

    Hi
    TO THE NOKIA FIRMWARE UPDATE STAFF:
    I bought that great phone NOKIA E51 but it needs a FIRMWARE UPDATE because the built'in camera gives photo(and videos too!) in VERY VERY "green" color that's too bad (MY OLD 6630 , so only 1,3 megapixel is best in photo quality against my actually E51..!)
    *** SO PLEASE REMOVE THE GREEN COLOR TENDENCY IN THE PHOTO! ***
    ANOTHER AND LAST problem I have noticed during mine along E51 testing is the integrate REAL PLAYER VERSION has VERY VERY big problems during *MP4* VIDEO PLAYBACK (MP4 VIDEOS MADE ON PURPOSE FOR MOBILE), VIDEO APPEARS In jerks (ESPECIALLY IN FULL SCREEN!) And SOME TIME IT BLOCKS DURING PLAYBACK!
    *** SO PLEASE A NEW VERSION OF REAL PLAYER IN THE NEXT E51 FIRMWARE ***
    FOR ALL THE REST THE E51 PHONE IS GREAT AND PRICE TOO (200€ IN ITALY), I BELIVE IT'LL BE A BEST SELLER -BUT- ONLY IF THE PROBLEMS I LISTED ABOVE WILL BE CORRECTED!!
    i got latest firmware version: 100.34.20

    Hi,
    I wrote to Nokia regarding this issue using the Nokia India site, and the Nokia for Business site. I also sent an email to [email protected]
    Here is the text of the email:
    Hi,
    I bought my Nokia E51 four days back, and I am VERY happy with the
    phone. However, I feel that there are some shortcomings with the
    phone, which need to be addressed by firmware upgrades. I am listing
    them here:
    1) The camera has a VERY noticeable green tint
    2) The video playback in full screen mode using RealPlayer is VERY
    slow and choppy
    3) In the "Missed Calls" part of the call log, there is NO way to
    determine WHICH number of the contact was the call missed - "Mobile
    Number", "Tel.(home)", "Tel.(office)" or what? The only way to
    determine is to call back using the same screen, which is VERY
    counterintuitive!
    You can have a look at some more people agreeing with me here -
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=communicators&​thread.id=14028
    and the problem 3) described in detail here -
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=communicators&​thread.id=15956
    Apart from these 3 problems, I am VERY VERY happy with the E51 - it
    lives up to all the promises it makes! Way to go, Nokia! I request you
    to address those 3 issues as fast as possible!
    Thanks and regards,
    I request ALL other users of the phone to please contact Nokia similarly, to have these issues resolved ASAP. If someone can suggest more ways of contacting Nokia regarding this issue, please tell me! Thanks!
