Before starting, make sure that you are on firmware 3.2.0 (d0a9bf18ea) as shown under Software version in Device Information in Settings.
These instructions are for Windows only.
1. Download mz_koboreaderpatch_11.exe (self-extracting archive) from http://rghost.net/50558386. You will only need the kpg.exe file from this archive so disregard the other files. Place this file in a convenient directory.
2. Download the .zip file attached to this message. At this time (2014-Feb-24), the only patch I've implemented is the footer patch. Extract the kpg.conf and patchgen.cmd file and place them in the same directory as kpg.exe.
3. Check the following post in the Direct Links to Kobo Firmware thead and download a kobo-update-3.20.zip file from there:

Once you have the update file, extract the libnickel.so.1.0.0 file (located in the KoboRoot.tgz under usr/local/Kobo/libnickel.so.1.0.0. I use 7Zip for this this. The file size should be 21,809,640 bytes.
Copy this file into the same directory as the previous 3 files.
5. Run patchgen.cmd, wait for it to finish and hit any key to close the window. I chose this method to allow me to see if there are any error messages without having to run kpg.exe from a command prompt.
6. Copy the KoboRoot.tgz file generated to your Kobo ereader in the .kobo directory, safely disconnect it from your computer and wait for the update to install.
Regards,
David
