Thanks for the answer, @jcn363. Unfortunately, the deactivation of the patch »Rename new home screen footer« had no effect.
Any attempt to open a book will restart the device. |

This works perfectly, @JSWolf. Thanks. But now, of course, I don't have patches.

If you have time, you can first try without any of the libnickel patches. If it crashes, that's unusual, and I will look into it further. Then, try disabling all the ones which have the hex replacements at different offsets. If it crashes, then see if you can narrow down which one. Finally, try the remaining patches and see if it works. If you don't have time, I'll look into it when I have a chance. Last edited by geek1011; 09-02-2018 at 02:06 PM. |

Thank's a lot, @geek1011. I will test it with the individual patches in the next week after working.

I'll have to go through Martina's list to see which of the same patches were enabled and try to figure out which patch if possible as you suggested. |

It's the "ePub fixed/adjustable top/bottom margins" patch in libnickel that's causing the reader to reboot when opening a book.
And something odd, when I enabled the "Remove recommendations (row1col2) from home screen" in nickel the first time by manually editing each file, it created the KoboRoot.tgz file successfully. For all this testing though I used the kobopatch.yaml to enable all patches, and when using it, it pops up with a fatal error and fails to create the file. Possibly it's not compatible with "Remove footer (row3) and increase cover size on new home screen" and I missed a warning? These are the patches I enabled, in case there's a conflict between the 2 I'm having problems with that I missed: Spoiler:
I can live without either of those patches, but in case this helps you pin down any issue (or user error is entirely possible too! ... just smack me if that's the case). |

@Ripplinger: It's happened before .
(I'll readily admit that I never tried to re-enable both of them, even after the fix). |

So that only leaves how I managed to screw up the "ePub fixed/adjustable top/bottom margins" patch. Although maybe not my fault, since Martina above had the same issue. Or we both screwed up and tried to use it with another patch where we shouldn't have. *Edit: Both can't be enabled only when using the kobopatch.yaml file. I just tested it again now, thinking maybe I forgot to enable one on the initial patch. But when both "Remove recommendations (row1col2) from home screen" and "Remove footer (row3) and increase cover size on new home screen" are enabled, but not using the kobopatch.yaml file, just manually editing each file, the KoboRoot.tgz file is successfully created and patches the reader just fine.

Does Kobopatch tell us of a problem if patches are enabled that are not compatible? If so, can this be added in?
