Patches for Frmware 4.38.23697

[JSWolf]

Firmware 4.38.23697 is for the Libra 2.

This thread is for the patches for the new firmware 4.38.23697. Most of the patches work. It may work for later firmware. I cannot say as I've not tried.

All of the patchers have been updated thanks to @geek1011

I would like to thank @aardvark for the original updated Windows .exe, geek1011 for fixing all of patchers and @jackie-w and @Semwize for help in updating some of the patches.

Use the file kobopatch.yaml to override the no to yes for each patch you want to apply. I cannot say all the patches work. Most of them do apply. If you have any issue with any of the patches, just post about the issue.

This is the same format as the patches for 4.38.23648.

There are more patchers if you need a different one not in the ZIP file. Please go to https://github.com/pgaskin/kobopatch...es/tag/v0.16.0 to see if what you need is there if it's not in the ZIP file.

Thank you to @jackie_w for fixing even more patches.

Please note:
Old patch name Increase size of kepub chapter progress chart
has been updated to Increase size of kepub/audio chapter progress chart so that:

• chapter progress barcharts for both kepub and audiobooks can be similarly enlarged. Users who never read audiobooks can still use the new one without issue.
• this patch is no longer reliant on a constantly-changing BaseAddress hex offset so should survive further firmware upgrades without needing to be updated every time.

The update nickel.yaml is now included in the ZIP for the patches.

Thanks to @jackie_w, nickel.yaml has been updated and fixes some patches that previously did not work as well as jackie_w Screensaver full in the custom yaml and Remove forgot pin button from lock screen.

P.S. xor_ has added some new patches. Please see the 2nd post for more information

Thank you to all involved for getting these patches out quickly. All my favourites are working fine, but it took 3 attempts to get them to apply to my elderly Aura H2O. The file appears to copy over to my device but, for whatever reason, doesn't always 'take'. So this is an encouragement for others out there to try a few times.

I'm glad you got the patches working. The problem could be that your SD card in the H20 is beginning to fail.
