Seems to be working fine so far on Kobo Aura One. No visible differences with previous 4.8.x firmware.

This is a replacement for firmware 4.8.10956. It reverts the default fonts for epubs back to what they were in previous firmware. That means Georgia is the serif font and I'm not sure what the sans serif font is. This will fix the problems people saw when opening epubs on some devices. There should be no other changes in it.

Which affiliate are you using? It's in the .kobo/affiliate.conf folder.

As I said, I use "beta" as affiliate. I had the April firmware before updating.

The reason why it does not appear to be available for the KA1LE is because they now seem to do more checks on the upgrade check.


https://api.kobobooks.com/1.0/Upgrad...81/beta/0.0/N0 -> 4.7.10364

https://api.kobobooks.com/1.0/Upgrad...a/4.7.10364/N0 -> 4.7.11073

I'll fix this later today by adding multiple layers to the checks based on the previous version.

The 10956 patches should work fine for this version, or you can wait for GeoffR to update them.

Did you just use the "generic" firmware?
