Instructions for patching on Windows, Linux, or macOS with kobopatch:

1. Download kobopatch_4.10.11655.zip from here.
2. Download the firmware from here to the src folder.
3. Install the firmware on your kobo BEFORE proceeding with the next steps.
4. Enable patches in the files in the src folder (or use the overrides in kobopatch.yaml to keep your options separate).
5. Run kobopatch.bat on Windows, or kobopatch.sh on Linux.
6. If the patching succeeded, a file named KoboRoot.tgz will be created in the out folder. Copy it to the .kobo folder of your device.

Download

See the kobopatch - An improved patching system thread for more details.

I want to use this patch to show all Beta Features (games) on my Mini running firmware version 4.10.11655.

However, I don't get any of the instructions.

Could somebody please simplify that for me?

Not likely. If there's a specific instruction you find unclear, someone can try elaborating on it... but a certain level of computer proficiently/literacy will be required. Maybe you can find someone who can help you hands on?

OK, here are the specific questions:

- Where IS the src folder?

- How do I enable patches?

- "Or use the overrides in kobopatch.yaml to keep your options separate" What does that mean?

Also, please do visit my other thread about a screen problem "Something Wrong With Screen After Update".

[QUOTE=Kiwisaurus;3756654]OK, here are the specific questions:

Aha, good catch.

step 2 after downloading the kobopatch_4.10.11655.zip is to unzip the file.

Therein you'll find the src folder. And opening the file inside of it should show you how to enable the patches.
