Hacking Question Is a custom theme installed directly onto the Switch?

[ady199]

Hi Guys,

I have a total of 5 SD cards that I 'switch' between - If I install a custom theme using NXThemes Installer, are the themes installed directly onto the switch? so If I 'switch' between my SD cards, will the Custom Theme continue to show?

Thanks in advance

It's not installed to the console, LayeredFS is used to temporarily replace the file location in the NAND, just a temporary patch that loads content from the SD so when you boot to OFW or switch SDs it will be gone.

Thanks for your reply, is there a way to make this work?

The only way I can think of it working is just to save a custom theme, and copy it to the same location on all your SDs.

Put it to system partition, but it can brick your FW, if you don't do it correctly.
So put to every sd card Layeredfs folder the same theme.
