No need to uninstall the hacks. You'll have to edit kobotweaks.ini to reflect the new firmware version, of course, but the only hack as of now that you need to reinstall after an upgrade is Night Mode. Everything else should still work even after upgrading.

Just out of curiosity, how many items do you have in your list, Paola? Does the number of items have any effect on the offset? On my Glo, the menu is only offset by around 10 pixels. It wouldn't be hard for me to change how the list is positioned, but I don't know why the offset is so large on the Mini.
