    Replacing the entire console shell

    Anyone with experience replacing their shell? How crucial is removing the rails from the console? I stripped my screw on the right rail and have run out of options for easy fixes... I'm now considering buying a rotary cutter just to gouge a line back on the screw head (and adjacent parts) to...

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    While using dbi to install games through the mtp responder, I get an error on atmosphere that is related to sd card corruption. Tried to reformat the sd card and recreate emunand. Eventually get to the screen on hekate that says the card reader is on 1 bit mode. Not sure what happened but a...

    Hacking Emunand vs sysnand on 9.1.0

    Did nothing get broken in the update when switching from sysnand to emunand? I haven't updated either of my emunand or sysnand to the latest but Diablo 3 now requires latest firmware to connect to blizzard servers... Can I update sysnand only for now? I know atmosphere doesn't support 9.1 yet.

    Hacking Is this the epitome of current ban protection?

    I've been using emunand on incognito and 90dns and there are a few obscure games that I would like dlc for which I could not find. So i used the shop which must not be named and found the update and dlc i needed. I was just wondering if this is all the protection the switch scene can provide so...

    Hacking Forgot to wipe wifi settings prior to booting atmosphere...

    I was making my emunand backup for the 2nd time and I got careless and didnt wipe wifi settings on sysnand prior to booting into emunand... Have I already tipped my hand to Nintendo? There were no NSPs installed on emunand and I took it offline straight away. Does merely booting into Atmosphere...

    Hacking Few questions about emummc

    I finished the emummc part of this guide (https://nh-server.github.io/switch-guide/) and I was able to set up a separate 256gb memory card (properly partitioned as recommended) and got atmosphere running (with the ams beside the firmware number). 1. The switch wouldn't boot up if I launch the...

    Hacking Emunand and sysnand on 2 memory cards

    Is it possible to have one switch use 2 memory cards for sysnand and emunand? I don't quite get the emunand implementation yet and I'm waiting for a slightly easier process. But I want to know how easy it is to swap between the two. Would it eventually get as easy as booting up without the...

    Hacking Question Will switch hacking ever reach the 3ds level of ease?

    I haven't been keeping up with the scene news for almost a year now. Reading the new stuff kinda confuses me a bit. But is it still sxos vs open sourced stuff much like it was gateway vs open source for the 3ds? That was when I got to messing with my 3ds and it was kinda confusing at first. but...

    Hacking Switch hacking future proof?

    Just checking if things changed since last I've seriously read about switch hacking. Last I read was every firmware with the exploitable bootrom would be eventually hackable. This was during fw 3.0 days when everyone was still hesitant to move on to the 4.0 fw in the hope of a coldboot exploit ...

    Gaming Ys 8 + overclocking

    Has anyone tried overclocking ys 8? I want to know if overclocking the vita resolves the issues it has... I'm currently overclocking with vsh but may lolicon could do it better. Can't test it yet. Still deciding between a switch or a vita version... I know the ps4 is the best version but I...

    Gaming Region switching eshop question

    The eshop isn't officially supported in the Philippines so the usual workaround is to set the eshop location to somewhere else. The games and consoles we get here are usually from the US though. I want to buy Bayonetta 2 and I actually see 2 versions of the game. One has Bayonetta 1+2 on the...

    Gaming Digital games and multiple accounts question

    Planning to buy a second hand switch with 2 digital games already downloaded. Splatoon 2 and xenoblade 2. How does the switch handle multiple accounts? I'd get the unit if I can sign in with my own Nintendo account and purchase some games too while still being able to play the 2 digital games...

    Is there anyway to rescue save files from a bricked 3ds that got dunked in the sea while on? It has cfw but I don't think my friend ever opened jksm Installed on it. The new 3ds also has cfw on it but it's basically fresh with only fbi and jksm... I was considering just moving the entire...

    Hacking How do you force nonpdrm to recreate the licenses?

    Something weird happened to nonpdrm since i updated to 3.65 enso and started using sd2vita as ux0 instead of uma0 on 3.60... Installed dlc the same way and One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 doesn't seem to recognize the dlc. It can see the dlc but the extra costumes show up as blanks... then trying to...

    Hacking Uma0 headache after 3.65...

    Successfully did the update to 3.65 with vita shell at 1.82 and everything. The problem is that it can seem to find an Uma0 folder... It has the ux0 and the ur0. Vita shell would just say can't detect USB device if I try to mount the sd2vita... Is there an extra step involved Been using...

    Hacking How to get ps1 eboots working?

    Bit of a newb here but I bought a 2nd hand ppp and I'm not sure what it needs to run ps1 eboots. Psp isos work well and the original owner has already taught me where to place the files. I'm downloading stuff via nps browser and the psp games work well enough. But the ps1 games never load up...

    Hacking Are Vitamin, Maidump, and Nonpdrm DLC cross compatible?

    I tried installing Freedom Wars Maidump DLC to a nonpdrm version of the game but it doesnt work... Not sure if I'm doing it right though since I've only used nonpdrm DLC. Will I need a Maidump verison of the game?

    I have an sd2vita setup for the vita games and wanted to direct Adrenaline to use the memory card to store the psp games as uma0. Everything used to work out fine. Had some trouble with updating Adrenaline to the latest version that supports uma) and cso but I got it working after deleting...

    Hacking Which of these sd2vita looks more reliable?

    I'm not sure what has been going on in the sd2vita scene since it's quite difficult to get access to them in the Philippines. They are usually overpriced too... But I've seen these 2 sold at a reliable store. I've heard that a lot of these earlier batches fail a lot though. The white one is sold...

    Hacking Setting up nonpdrm and nps browser...

    Not sure what I'm doing wrong but refreshing the live area doesn't show the games downloaded by nps browser. I followed the steps to install nonpdrm and have the file in the Tai folder and have already edited the configuration file to include nonpdrm under ux0. I set up nps browser and tried...

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.
