I've updated the patch_kobo_330.zip attached to post #1 with tshering's new 3.3.0_unpack.bat / 3.3.0.bat, and a new 3.3.0_unpack.sh that incorporates chrisridd's Mac OS X patch32lsb executable. The instructions for patching on Mac are exactly the same as for Linux.
Edit: I've also added a 64-bit Linux executable, for those systems (not sure how common they are) that don't have 32-bit compatibility librarys installed. Last edited by GeoffR; 04-30-2014 at 07:04 AM. Reason: Linux 64-bit executables |

Sorry for inconvenience, but I modified the batch file again. This one replaces both (3.3.0.bat and 3.3.0_unpack.bat), no second batch file necessary.

Thanks, I've included this in patch_kobo_330.zip attached to post #1, I named it 3.3.0.bat and updated the instructions.

Thanks for this patch. it makes kobo more nice.
`Remove system fonts in Reader list`, does this patch still work? I used it in version 3.2.0 and it is useful to me. |

%APPDATA% %ProgramFiles% %ProgramFiles(x86)% e.g: SET the7zipexe="%ProgramFiles%\7-Zip\7z.exe" Note, addition: I've seen the updated script. IMHO, my friendly suggestion applies also the update script. Last edited by Anak; 05-07-2014 at 07:10 AM. |

@Anak, thank you for your comment and the suggestion.
Actually, I modified my original script to the hard-coded version before posting, since I thought (maybe this was a mistake) this might prevent troubles with uncommon settings. In case it might be useful for somebody, my original script sets the the7zipexe this way: Code:
REM --- get the path to 7zip.exe cd "%~dp0" for /f "delims=" %%i in ('_get_7zip.bat') do (SET the7zipexe=%%i) IF "%the7zipexe%"=="no" (GOTO exenotfound) Code:
@ECHO OFF REM ------- try to get a manually set 7-zip executable SET theexe=C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe IF EXIST "%theexe%" (GOTO foundit) REM ------- try to get another manually set 7-zip executable SET theexe=C:\7za920\7za.exe IF EXIST "%theexe%" (GOTO foundit) REM ------- repeat this for other non-standard locations on your machines REM ------- try to get the installed 7-zip executable FOR /f "tokens=2*" %%A in ('REG QUERY "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\7-Zip" /v Path') DO SET theexe=%%B\7z.exe IF EXIST "%theexe%" (GOTO foundit) SET theexe=no :foundit ECHO %theexe% Last edited by tshering; 05-07-2014 at 08:00 AM. |

To the best of my knowledge everything needed to Patch fw 3.3 is now contained in the download zip in post #1 and the new instructions are also all in post #1.

EDIT: when the bat file is running it's creating a KoboRoot.tar file, but there's no .tgz file. Last edited by 93terp; 05-14-2014 at 01:39 PM. Reason: added creation of KoboRoot.tar file to explanation. |

Thanks Jackie. I did go back step by step from the instructions posted in #1, but now I'm hung up running the bat file. At this point I'm stumped as to what's causing the error.
