The patch needs to be slightly modified. In the next version, everything will be fine.

Hm, I factory reset my Elipsa and installed the patch for 4.28.17925, and although it seems to have worked, I'm finding that every time the device reboots, the line spacing has gone back to being very small and has stopped relating to where the knob is set, so that if I increase it by one and decrease it by one, it goes back to where I had it before.

Is this part of the font scale changes in the latest firmware, or because I installed the wrong set of patches, or something else?

I tried applying the "Enable markup for sideloaded kepubs" patch from this Elipsa thread for 4.29.18730 for my Sage, but I received the following error:
--> could not apply patch "Enable markup for sideloaded kepubs": line 1461: inst 2: ReplaceBytes: could not find specified bytes

Any tips? Or any type of testing that I can help with in resolving this?

The patch worked perfectly for the Elipsa itself when patching 4.28.17925, which hopefully rules out user error

and points to just a difference in the device and firmware.

It’s likely just a difference in firmware.
