Updating Atmosphere is as easy as deleting the old /atmosphere folder and files then downloading the new ones from the official GitHub page. Updating the firmware is a little bit harder. You're on the right track since you used ChoiDujourNX but nowadays, everyone uses Daybreak which comes bundled with Atmosphere by default meaning you can find it in the /switch folder from the zip file that you downloaded from the GitHub in the last step.

Thanks! So using SDSetup is no longer used/recommended? I remember using it last time as it bundled a bunch of things together but not sure if there's any advantage over just getting atmosphere from the official repo

SDSetup is fine to use but it might not always be up to date. The safer but more complicated route involves downloading the files from the official GitHub pages. You can try using SDSetup but if you have any issues, then you're going to have to download the files from their respective GitHub anyways.

Do Switch Joy-Cons work without batteries (detached and removed)? Being connected to the Switch itself, of course.

Ok...so Picofly install and booting on Switch Lite. Can still boot into OFW. Switch on OFW 16.0.1. Downloaded sthetix's HAT pack. Getting the pkg1 failed to decrypt. Ideas? I figured Atmosphere would boot on 16.0.1, maybe not? I feel like I'm missing something.

Did you use resisitors?

Used a hwfly flex cable and soldered to the two inner pins. The mod works, I'm just missing something with the software setup or Atmosphere doesn't work on 16.0.1.

Fuuuck me...It needed unlocked. I flashed what I THOUGHT was the picofly firmware and unlock but it wasn't unlocked. Flashed the unlock and now it's working as it should. Thanks for the help!

If by "main nintendo system", he means the Switch operating system Horizon, then that means you basically cannot use this Switch to play Switch games. You can use it to boot Android and Lakka as the seller described but as a Switch, it sounds useless.

Is there a pinmap or something for the Nintendo Switch Lite display connector?

There is no HDMI support for switch lite.

yeah but I wanted to make a module like this
normally the display is connected directly to the motherboard (i assume) but I want to make a module like this: (maybe similar to a capture card?)

Hi, gonna get my local guy to install the picofly on my v2 switch this Saturday. He told me that he ran out of v2 flex cables and that it was possible for a v1 flex cable to be used with an RP2040 zero. Is there anyone who can confirm it, can he legitimately install it with a v1 hwfly flex cable?

i finally homebrewed my switch today after waiting to do so for several years, but when i boot up atmosphere i get the error code 2001-0123 (0xf601) . the only explanation i could find for the error was way too advanced for me to understand and the only fixes i could find applied to people who had already homebrewed consoles . im using the newest version of atmosphere and it crashes after the atmosphere and switch logo and i rlly dont understand
