They adjust various settings in the firmware. If you unzip the file, you can read what each patch does.

They give you the option of tweaking the default view, which are not usually user adjustable (e.g., removing the bottom 'ad' row from the home screen, reducing margins to increase reading space, etcetera).
Here are the patches currently available if it piques your interest: libnickel.so.1.0.0

After running kobopatch.bat on my Libra 2, I can't see any KoboRoot.tgz. I'm doing it on Win10 and I tried also the option "run as admin". Could you help please?

Did you turn on any of the patches? They come all set to no and you have to change the ones you want to yes.

If there were any errors in any of your .yaml files then a KoboRoot.tgz wouldn't be created. Were there any errors when you ran kobopatch.bat?

Thanks for answer. Any error, just the running window start, then automatically closed.

PAUSE Alternatively, kobopatch also produces a log called log.txt. It should show any error messages at the end of the file. |
