Plug your Kobo in to your computer, on the drive you have access to should be a .kobo folder in that folder make a new folder called screensaver. Whatever image you put in will be used when the device sleeps or powers off if you have the display cover option enabled. Note multiple images results in a random selection at the time of sleep or power off.

Yes, that is correct. Also, this thread is for discussing kobopatch itself. For patch requests, post them in the kobopatch request thread. For questions,.comments, and discussion, post in the patch thread for your firmware.

Ah, wasn't aware of that, thanks.

Is there somewhere that has a list of all the patches and what they do? I've looked in multiple patching threads, on github, and on the pgaskin web page.
Thanks.

The best places for all information about all patches are the actual patches files in the src folder in Kobopatch. In commented lines there is a brief but generally exhaustive description of what the patch changes.

Yes. And sometime in the next few months, I'll probably put together an automatically generated page with all the patches and descriptions, along with a configuration generator.

Ok, thanks for the replies, people!

@geek1011
Would it be possible to include the directory and recursion options in the "ADDITIONAL FILES" section?
Something like:
*** src/[whateverdir]: usr/local/[whateverdir]
where all files within the [whateverdir] directory are copied with the same file structure at the indicated site.

I bought Clara HD recently and found this awesome thread. Is there any possibility to change Google default search language to Indonesian, for example? I want to highlight some text and translate it into the Indonesian language automatically. In libnickel.so patch file, I only found Wikipedia search and no Google search option. By default, when I highlight English text and search it on Google, it will be translated into English again.

Maybe. I'll look into this after the next firmware update whenever that is.

This belongs in the request thread, and yes, it should be possible. I don't have time to do this right now, but check the strings for the URL and try replacing that.

I just received my Kobo Clara HD after the black friday sale.
I've been reading the main thread post but couldn't really understand what does kobpatch gives me if I install it?
If some one could make it simplified I would be much greatful.

Also, is there an option to have a dictionary for English to Hebrew?

For kobopatch, download the patches from the patch thread and look at the patch descriptions. There's also a demo of the header/footer patches here: https://pgaskin.net/kobopatch-patche...tch-13651.html.

For dictionaries, ask on the dictionary thread.

Thank you for the fast reply

and sorry but I couldn't find the dictionary thread for asking ?

Well, if you selected any particular patch, check and see if it had the desired effect. E.g., if you selected "Swap reading header/footer: ", by setting it to "yes" [this is one of my favorites], see if they are swapped.

Sorry I just received it today so i'm asking stupid questions.
I guess you mean that I have this option when I read a book.

The main problem is I couldn't figure out yet how do I import and sildeload an .epub book that I have on my computer..
I tried to download the kobo app in my phone and I can see my .epub there after importing it, but it doesn't add it to my Clara.
How do I sideload a book then?

Also, doesn't kobo have an option for dropbox sync?
