That way I don't have to change all the patches I want to yes and I can include some custom patches and the better hyphenation dictionary. I've attached my kobopatch.yaml file so you can see what I've done. |

However, upon further inspection, it appears to be a problem with the kepub title I'm reading. The other books on my device show the lowercase header, so this is a problem presumably just with this particular file. Appreciate the help. |

It's always been this way when using Notepad++. I don't know whether other text editors handle it better. |

Hello from France,
first of all thank you very much for this patch, I am really the worst noob of noobs and therefore I am afraid of doing something that I will regret. I think I have understood all the steps mentioned above to install the patch (my kobo having already been automatically updated, I suppose I do not need to do step 4) all I want, since I don't use the kobo store or the internet, is to remove from the home page the message "find your next book on kobo plus....." and the message "read as much as you want with a kobo plus subscription" (I translate from French to English). when I open the patches in the src folder. I don't know how to do it ![]() I thank you and wish you a good week. |

Enable patches in the files in the src folder (or use the overrides in kobopatch.yaml to keep your options separate). Instead of putting "yes" to the related patch in the nickel.yaml on SRC folder, you can override it in kobopatch.yaml as following: Code:
overrides: src/libadobe.so.yaml: src/libnickel.so.1.0.0.yaml: src/librmsdk.so.1.0.0.yaml: src/nickel.yaml: Remove footer (row3) on new home screen: yes Hope it helps... Last edited by hatuluang; 10-10-2023 at 02:15 AM. |

Open the patches in a notepad app and change no to yes for the ones you want. Don't forget to save.

Thank you to you 2 ![]() it does not work :/ When I make the modification in the kobopatch.yaml I do not have any koboroot file in the out folder and when I make the modification in the nickel.yaml folder I don't have a koboroot file either but I have a log.txt file with this written in it: Code:

Try to download it again and put it in the SRC folder as Instruction No.1 and No.3 on the first page of this thread. Make sure that you download the Kobo firmware file according to your Kobo Model. Attached is the image of the SRC folder with Kobo firmware. Hope it works... |

I am trying to add a font for the custom built English-Malayalam language dictionary, which I have been using for few years. I tried two sideloaded fonts but couldn't make it work. Code:
# Un-comment ONE ONLY of the following 4 ReplaceString examples #- ReplaceString: {Offset: 54, Find: "%4, serif ", Replace: "sans-serif", MustMatchLength: yes} #- ReplaceString: {Offset: 54, Find: "%4, serif ", Replace: "'KBJ-TsukuMin Pr6N RB'", MustMatchLength: yes} #- ReplaceString: {Offset: 54, Find: "%4, serif ", Replace: "'KBJ-TsukuMin Pr6N RB'", MustMatchLength: yes} #- ReplaceString: {Offset: 54, Find: "%4, serif ", Replace: "'KBJ-UDKakugo Pr6N M'", MustMatchLength: yes} #- ReplaceString: {Offset: 54, Find: "%4, serif ", Replace: "'AR UDJingxihei'", MustMatchLength: yes} #- ReplaceString: {Offset: 54, Find: "%4, serif ", Replace: "Keraleeyam", MustMatchLength: yes} - ReplaceString: {Offset: 54, Find: "%4, serif ", Replace: "'Noto Sans Malayalam'", MustMatchLength: yes} Any advice, please? |

That's the bad news! However, if you want it badly enough and you are prepared to be disciplined every time you reboot the Kobo there is a possible workaround. I wouldn't describe it as "convenient" ![]() Some background, based on observation rather than real knowledge... After a reboot the current firmware (since 4.32.19501) seems to only load "as required" what it considers non-essential fonts. Unfortunately for us that appears to include all sideloaded fonts. So it's necessary to find some way to force your preferred dictionary font to be loaded very soon after every reboot. Quite recently I discovered that using the following steps I was able to make the dictionary use a sideloaded font. I use the font-family from your quoted patch as an example below, 'Noto Sans Malayalam':
After every reboot/power off you will need to re-do Steps 2. and 4. and I suggest you do them *immediately* because, as far as I can tell, once the dictionary opens using the "wrong" font you can't get rid of it except by doing another reboot. --- My own testing was done using a sideloaded sans-serif font, Arial (Regular, Bold, Italic, BoldItalic), with the default Kobo English-English dictionary. If you (or anyone else still reading this post) decide you're prepared to go to this much trouble to make it work (and keep it working) please give feedback about whether it works for you. If it's worthwhile I'll add a link to the patch's Description pointing back to this post for future reference. --- Notes:
