surquizu, sorry I didn't see this message until just now!
I couldn't find a way to send a private message here with files (other than photos) attached, but here are the files you want (firmware 3.1.1 for Kobo Aura HD): http://sfwriter.com/conf_nickel.txt http://sfwriter.com/conf_libnickel.txt |

Thanks Robert. It works, but I see that it is not compatible with the other patches. The other patches are disabled

You can overcome this problem in different ways. - replace libnickel.so.1.0.0 in the kpg folder by one that is already modified by patchit.exe - replace libnickel.so.1.0.0 in 3.1.1_source by one that is already modified by kpg.exe - add the patches you use from the kpg configuration file to 3.1.1_source\conf_libnickel.txt I think the last alternative is the most convenient. For instance if you would like to use the "Search in Library by default" patch (from GeoffR's kpg.conf), add Code:
<Patch> patch_name = `Search in Library by default` patch_enable = `yes` replace_bytes = 9E7DBC, 7E F7 C0 E2, 00 46 00 46 replace_bytes = 9E7E08, 7E F7 9A E2, 00 46 00 46 </Patch> |

GeoffR published a patch to fix tiny synopsis on Glo/Aura/AuraHD. You can include this patch by adding it to conf_libnickel.txt (see post #35 for details).

For FW 3.3.0 (8eb9c1f8b2). Don't use it with other FW versions.
Usage: - double click on 3.3.0.bat - copy the newly created KoboRoot.tgz, which you will find in the folder 3.3.0_target, to the .kobo folder on your device. USE THIS PACKAGE AT YOUR OWN RISK! Last edited by tshering; 04-25-2014 at 03:53 AM. |

The patch works, but the text in the dictionary ugly and still not big enough. Other menu items have not changed. Firmware 3.2.0 Aura HD

Basically you can choose between Georgia, Avenir, and Gothic. You can find examples for Avenir and Gothic already in the configuration file. 'You can choose any other font too, but it has to be "activated" (by going to the font settings menu and select this font once, or be opening a kepub that has this font assigned to it).
Just increase the font-size! for instance, instead of Code:
newpart=* { font-family: Georgia ;font-size: 36px; line-height: 42px; } \n
Code:
newpart=* { font-family: Georgia ;font-size: 42px; line-height: 46px; } \n Not all patches of this package affect the Aura HD, since the Aura HD does not always follow the same pattern as the other devices. However, all those patches that contain the expression "dragon," the code name of the Aura HD, should work. All that is needed is to edit the font size values for the dragon appropriately. |
