The line in eReader.config is added correctly. Before I used 4.10.11655 and everything worked fine.

So, what's wrong here? Thanks for help
The full screen mode is no longer in the firmware. If the setting is in the config file, it will be completely ignored. The options to turn off the title and footer are the official way to get the full screen reading. Kobo have decided to put a margin at the top and bottom of the screen. These are larger than I would like, but use a lot less space than the title and footer. The margin at the top is two or three times larger than the top margin for epubs in previous firmware versions. The bottom margin is harder to judge due to the impact of font size, line spacing and other CSS setting on how far down the screen the text can reach. But, my impression is that it is probably about the same as the top margin.

If you are seeing more than this, it might be one of the patches. I'm pretty sure I saw some issues mentioned with reducing the top margin using patches.

If you still think there is an issue, please post a screenshot of the unpatched device so we can see what is wrong.
