MZ's Kobo Patcher 10

Here's a translation of Metazoa's post about patcher 10


mz_koboreaderpatch_10, anniversary release

In the new version:

- Kobo Patch Generator updated to version 1.5: The correction of minor bugs;
- For 2.10.0 and 3.0.0 new patch 'Search in Library by default': does the default search in the device library, not in the store BookStore;
- For 2.10.0 and 3.0.0 new patch 'Ignore book internal CSS stylesheet': reader ignores the built-in styles of the book, which makes it impossible to have unregulated leading, non-removable fonts, etc.;
- For 2.10.0 and 3.0.0 new patch 'Ignore book TOC navpoints' (disabled by default!) NavPoint reader ignores directives in the file with the contents of the book, as a result - the book is always opened on the first page of the first HTML-section. This patch is disabled by default because there is no guarantee that such behavior is always correct: the authors epub-file is usually knows best which page of the book should be opened first.

How to install a personal patch:

1. Download archive: http://rghost.ru/50295847
2. Unpack the archive to a convenient folder.
3. Copy the kpg.conf and libnickel.so.1.0.0 files for your version of firmware to a convenient folder along with kpg.exe.
4. With any text editor edit the file kpg.conf to your liking and understanding.
5. Run kpg.exe (preferably in the console) and wait for it to finish.
5a. Connect your Kobo ereader to your computer
6. Transfer the KoboRoot.tgz file generated by the patcher to the .kobo directory on the Kobo's internal storage.
7. Safely eject the Kobo ereader from your OS.
8. Disconnect the USB cable from the Kobo ereader.
9. Wait for the installation to complete. The patch will install and the device will reboot.
10. Rejoice.

How to remove personal patch (return-reader in the "factory" condition):

Replace a previous statement on paragraph 4: "4. Any file with a text editor do kpg.conf empty (or comment out all lines in it)." and execute it.


Regards,
David
