Instructions for patching firmware 4.10.11655
Someone said it was possible to use the 4.10.11591 kobopatch files, but I just wanted to be sure that is OK. Will there be an updated KoboPatch_4.10.11655, or should we just re-use the previous kobopatch version?

I did some testing and not all the patches work but the ones I use worked and don't seem to be causing any problems. If you do get any errors, start disabling the patch that caused the error and try again.

The patches I use are:

librmsdk.so.1.0.0
Default ePub monospace font (Courier)
Disable orphans/widows avoidance

nickel
Custom reading footer style

libnickel.so.1.0.0
Custom left & right margins

which is a rather small subset of the patch set. Set the .zip file name in the kobopatch.yaml and give it a try.

The following patch is ported from GeoffR's patch
There must be into sickel.yaml file with the others patches and add an entry in kobopatch.yaml
Code:
patches:
  src/sickel.yaml: usr/local/Kobo/sickel
Spoiler:
Code:
sickel reboot timeout:
  - Enabled: no
  - Description: sickel reboots the device if 10 seconds pass without a ping.
# Enable this patch to increase that time limit to 20 or 30 seconds.
#
# 10sec --> 20sec
#  - ReplaceBytes:
#      FindH:    42 F2 10 71
#      ReplaceH: 44 F6 20 61
#  - ReplaceBytes:
#      FindH:    44 F6 20 61
#      ReplaceH: 49 F6 40 41
#
# 10sec --> 30sec
  - ReplaceBytes:
      FindH:    42 F2 10 71
      ReplaceH: 47 F2 30 51
  - ReplaceBytes:
      FindH:    44 F6 20 61
      ReplaceH: 4E F6 60 21


Good luck
