Changing the info panel in full size screensaver
Hi all
Is it possible change the panel in screensaver->show info panel on screen covers, that that the panel will show in the top corner, and show only power-off or sleeping. Last edited by oren64; 12-08-2015 at 07:27 AM. |

Update:I make a patch that move the info-panel to the bottom corner (i can change to the upper corner), reduce the size, reduce the margin, and make background-color more transparent.
FW 3.13.1 libnickel.so.1.0.0.patch Kobo Glo. EDIT:If your charging in sleeping mode, the text "sleeping" is cut. Spoiler:

Hi! I like your patch.
Why not to post in the metazoa thread? |

The patch is only for Glo (it may work on Aura), i can't make for Aura Hd+h2o and mini because i can't test it on those devices.
If your using FW 3.13.1 and your device is glo, you can copy the patch to libnickel.so.1.0.0.patch. If your using different firmware I can make you a patch for your fore your device. If GeoffR want to make it an official Metazoa patch i be honer. Last edited by oren64; 12-09-2015 at 03:14 AM. |

GeoffR help my understand how to patch by using hex editor.
The hard thing is to find what section in file firmware KoboRoot.tgz\usr\local\kobo\libnickel.so.1.0.0, is relevant. If you know what you want to change, you find the address of the substring with hex editor. replace_string = C3E6E7(address), `min-height: 680px;`(original substring) , `min-height: 904px(changed substring);` Last edited by oren64; 12-09-2015 at 04:10 AM. |
