However, installing the same patch after the factory reset with the exact same modifications except to add the three extra patches in the second post worked perfectly. Any idea what's up? Could a corrupted database cause this? (I ask because once when connecting to my PC prior to installing the patch the first time it gave a bad database error and wouldn't connect immediately.)

(Edit: In another thread it was suggested that if the database is corrupt, the device might continue to function normally until it is restarted, and then do a factory reset. Since patching causes the device to restart, this could fit what happened to you.)
It could happen if the device was running the wrong firmware version before the patch, and then updated to the correct version after the factory reset.
But my Glo did a spontaneous factory reset when testing a faulty patch in firmware 3.3.0, so I know it is possible for a bad patch to cause the problem too.
