This is a bummer question. I've prepared the SD and booted into the emuMMC with Atmosphere. Now I need to run the homebrew menu to install games via Goldleaf. But Homebrew menu runs on Applet Mode which does not allow enough ram to run Goldleaf when accessed via Album.

Everyone would say "Use an existing game with R button to access homebrew with enough ram." Yes but since I cannot run Goldleaf to install my FIRST GAME there is no game installed game to use "R button with". Stuck for good then?

Hours of search in the forum and couldn't find a solution to this. Please can someone tell me how to run HB Menu with no titles installed? (If there's any) as I do not have any original games yet.

Many thanks.

Wow this so much reminds me of Xbox-Scene back in the 2000s. Anyway i have a day 1 release switch (Back in 2017) its been sat in a box and gathered dust as i was waiting for Homebrew scene to develop (I have a 2nd Switch for normal use)

Question i have is :-

Is there s Firmware Replacement that allows me not have to use the RCM jig every time and so that i can just boot direct into, that allows homebrew and i can backup my current collection of games with.

More intrested in the emulation side my self, but being able to dump some of my own games saves me having to carry around the little games and loose the buggers.

Assuming you are asking something close to a cold boot, you need a unpatched unit that is hard modded with a modchip along with autoboot so that you can boot into CFW with one button press.

Exactly :-)

Same as EVOX ran on the xbox, and the PSP custom firmware worked (Showing my age here)

Goldleaf can install games in applet mode? It doesn't need full ram access to do that iirc.

I just updated to Atmosphere 16.1. I updated sigpatches and fusse primary as well of course.

Goldleaf is now broken and I cannot launch any games. When I try to launch goldleaf it takes me right back to the homebrew menu. When I launch a game it gives me a black screen that requires me to hard reset the console.

No idea what to do.

You need the recompile version of goldleaf, for firmware 11.0.0 any homebrew that use usb:ds needs to be recompiled.

You just saved a total noob from a total nervous breakdown. Thank you kindly!

So I guess I should be on the lookout for a new Goldleaf release whenever there's an Atmosphere or OFW update?

Usually not the case, homebrew back on 9.x.x had to be recompile when it came out, 10.x.x had no problem, so it depends what Nintendo try to break.

Okay so a few things (I forget what you were trying to do)

1) What format is your sd card?
2) What firmware are you currently on?
3) What firmware are you trying to go to?
4) How many fuses do you have burnt? (Check with hekate)
my fuses are 1
i was on 10.01
i ran choi to downgrade to 6.1
now sx os boots then freezes on switch logo
hekate 5.x runs but i dont know how to boot back to choi to upgrade back to 10.1
