Prevent firmware upgrade while syncing in Overdrive book

Unfortunately my ADE does not work properly to transfer Overdrive books to my kobo. (It works fine with cloudLibrary, so I'd rather not risk mucking that up.) Thus I need to sync the Overdrive book over. But can I do a sync without it automatically installing the new firmware? I'm not using Instapaper and would rather wait until the possible bootlooping issues get sorted out. I have KOreader/Plato, a few patches and NickleMenu/NickleClock and don't need any extra hassles ATM.

You can either apply the patch to always ask before firmware updates, or you can apply the patch to block firmware updates entirely, but for the latter patch you need to use this updated version in order for it to work:
