I've never used this patch but the following works if you manually edit the Kobo conf file.
Code:
[FeatureSettings]
BookSpecificStats=true
FeatureSettings - ShowFacebookShare
I've never used Facebook, but maybe it has a similar workaround to the one above.

Allow rotation on all devices
Once again, a manual edit of the Kobo conf file works on my Clara2E.
Code:
[DeveloperSettings]
ForceAllowLandscape=true

I can't help with the next 4 as they're also in my 'not working' list. It may be the presence of the FindInstBLX/SymPLT combo as raised earlier by @AsherMaximum
  • My 24 line spacing values
  • My 10 line spacing values
  • Unify font sizes
  • Don't uppercase header/footer text and change page number text

I don't use them but these 2 also use the FindInstBLX/SymPLT combo.
  • Set KePub hyphenation
  • Replace adobe page numbers toggle with invert screen
I thought recommended advice for InvertScreen has, for a long time, been to do it via the NickelMenu option rather than this patch. That's what I've been doing for ages.

Thanks for the help on the settings to replace some of the patches.

nickel.yaml (i.e. not librmsdk.so.1.0.0.yaml as per your post)

Increase size of kepub chapter progress chart
Try this hex location:
Code:
  - BaseAddress: 0x19A1644 # qss/ReadingMenuStatsView.qss
Of these patches then ones I really hope can be made to work are the unify font sizes and either the 24 line or 10 line spacing values.
  • My 24 line spacing values
  • My 10 line spacing values
  • Unify font sizes
  • Don't uppercase header/footer text and change page number text

I'll try the KePub progress chart new offset and see if it works. Thank you.
