I use the OTA updates, only I just use my PC to download them off the OTA servers. I then use 7-zip to open the .gz files and make changes to the File Manager listing of the files. I make the font size smaller, showing more of the file name on each line, and changing the number of lines displayed per page.

For me, with my Kobo AuraHD, it is in .adds\koreader\frontend\ui\widget\menu.lua

The "cfont", at line 122 and 325, using Notepad++

I changed mine to 18. It looks fine but The Aura HD, has a higher res than some, which means that the fine print is clear and readable. The text is smaller, so more of the titles are visible.

To adjust number of lines per page, change:
Around Line 374: Screen:scaleBySize(46), -- hardcoded for now. (I changed to (28), for my AuraHD)

After making the changes, I save, exit Notepad++, and back out of 7-zip, saving back to the compressed file as I go.

Then when I update with that file, using WinRAR, the changes are in place.

Luck;
