Sorry for that - I just thought they were risky.
You would be fine as long you keep your battery health, considering you keep killing your battery I wonder if it even worth it, you may as well look at your battery info in hekate.

Might check sometime soon if i get my Switch fixed.You would be fine as long you keep your battery health, considering you keep killing your battery I wonder if it even worth it, you may as well look at your battery info in hekate.
You only need to mod the rail part, replacement rails are cheaply available for a few dollars.I dont really want to risk my Joycon since these cost an arm and a leg.
Thanks for letting me know! might do it someday.You only need to mod the rail part, replacement rails are cheaply available for a few dollars.
I would not permanently bridge the pins, JoyCon firmware updates will check for this and the JoyCon will semi brick (recoverable) if a JoyCon firmware update is applied with the JoyCon connected in "wired" mode while the pins are bridged. You can use a hall effect sensor with a magnet to temporarily bridge the pins or make the JoyCon eject button itself act as the button to activate the bridge, there are guides on here for both.
You know what, im using AutoRCM.I use autorcm, and have for 5+ years. I have not had to use my jig hardly ever, mostly only when updating FW. I also have hekate.bin copied over to my reboot.bin so if switch crashes, it goes back to hekate screen and can push payload without needing my jig. Good luck!
Haha same. The only times I need to push are for full freezes that mostly are my fault for playing around to muchI use autorcm, and have for 5+ years.

Just wondering, what’s your source to this claim?Everything drains it but AutoRCM drains it more than the Switch itself allows it . At plain 0%
You need to be very careful with it
go find one then as you're never happy with anything in the scene, also don't need pc to switch from stock to cfw, just a phone and jig if it's V1I just wish that someone discovered a coldboot exploit already, it's getting tiring having to walk to my PC just to swap from stock to CFW.
Heck, dont even need that. As long as hekate is your reboot_payload.bin, hold power, hit restart, then your in hekate and can boot that way.go find one then as you're never happy with anything in the scene, also don't need pc to switch from stock to cfw, just a phone and jig if it's V1
You can't reboot to payload from stock firmware.Heck, dont even need that. As long as hekate is your reboot_payload.bin, hold power, hit restart, then your in hekate and can boot that way.

You can't reboot to payload from stock firmware.
This is true, sorry I was thinking bout running cfw on sysnand. Was just waking when I postedreboot_payload.bin doesn't work from stock as you have no CFW in that state.
I don't know about it increasing drainage, but NEVER let your switch die with autorcm on. My first switch ran out of battery with autorcm on, and I could never get it to turn on; this was about 4 years ago. Tried recharging didn’t work. Tried resending the payload with the computer and dongle (from shut down source now) didn’t work. I eventually bought another switch and used that instead. Last month I changed the battery on my old switch (bought a new one, opened back of the switch and swapped the batteries), and it finally turned on!! Finally got my old save from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 back. So if you do use autorcm make sure to always keep your switch charged or you’ll have to change the battery out. My switch was new when I had it so the battery was supposed to be good, this was just my experience with autorcm. Now I have two switches but I won’t put autorcm because it’s not worth it to me.Just wondering, what’s your source to this claim?
Bah I've done it a couple of times. It just takes forever to charge. It's just to hold down the power button for 10-15 secs after a couple of minutes so it's really shut offI don't know about it increasing drainage, but NEVER let your switch die with autorcm on.

That's what I've heard, that it takes forever to charge. Maybe my switch was defective idk lol. But I would put it on the dock, tried charging it directly with the usb-c cable and it would not turn on. Trust me I tried to get it to work before I went out and bought a new one. Looked up videos on youtube did the button thing, left my switch on the dock for days, weeks to charge, it didn’t work. Maybe I let it drain too long idk but it shouldn’t take days to charge the battery. Maybe if I had charged my switch right when it died it would be fine, but I didn’t. I left it out, didn’t touch it for a while (I was busy with school). This was just my personal experience though. I will say autorcm was super convenient when I did use it.Bah I've done it a couple of times. It just takes forever to charge.

Sadly you must have a Nintendo charger more or less to get it out of this state. I've tried with a bunch of different once but so far it seems only the Nintendo charger works the best.That's what I've heard, that it takes forever to charge. Maybe my switch was defective idk lol.

That's mostly the charger I used, so that wasn't the problem. You've had a good experience with autorcm and I assume you charged it right after it ran out of battery. That wasn’t my situation. I think my battery ran out completely to 0% and that was my problem. That will probably not happen to most people if they always pay attention to their switch. You can try to replicate my situation and see if you can charge the battery again.Sadly you must have a Nintendo charger more or less to get it out of this state.

oh I let i sit for like a month for more and it was fully depleted. Took a couple of hours before I saw the charge icon.That's mostly the charger I used, so that wasn't the problem.
