My native language is Spanish, so I apologize in advance as I am using a translator.

I hope someone can answer my questions since I am somewhat new to the terms.

My Nintendo Switch is Erista, so I was following a tutorial to install Hekate.
Everything was going well until the time of performing the "Backup"

My memory turned out to be inefficient to save the "Backup" files

So I exited the "RCM" mode without having done the "Partition SD Card"

When they try to access Hekate again, the warnings about the images posted in the thread appeared, I can't get Hekate to start and I don't know what to do, I hope someone can answer my questions and if you could be specific I would appreciate it.

Hello,

where did you bought your microSD card ? smells like a fake card, which started to corrupt data because you wrote beyond its real size.

you should check it with h2testw (do a full test...but beware, it needs a full wipe of the microSD card)

Check the SD card in a computer. You have probably done some of the partitioning before you aborted. If you can see partitions on the computer then make a fat32 partition that takes up all the space and start over with guide

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
