Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

This website said the screws are a Philips 00, so thats what I was trying to use.

Hopefully I didn't strip them too badly (I only have 3 screws left)

Ayup. I did the same on my V1 and stripped a couple pretty badly. I switched to JIS and I’ve not had a problem with joycon rail screws ever since.

Hey relatively nooby user here, I updated my firmware and atmosphere version after not using the switch in a while, and i can't connect to the internet anymore. I have the dns set so it blocks the nintendo servers and all that and wifi works when i boot the switch normally (not in cfw) but in cfw I cannot access tinfoil stores and when i test the wifi it comes up with an immediate error that the internet connection has failed. Any helpful advice would be appreciated.

Do you have any files in /atmosphere/hosts/. If so, please share their contents.

Also check, but don’t fix yet, that you’re not in Airplane mode and that your Wifi is configured in Emunand and DNS is set up in Emunand.

E: internet connection failed is normal if you have Ninty servers blocked…mine does that but I can still use Tinfoil. It’s a bad test that just checks if you can contact Ninty.

Thanks, I'll be sure to check

Hi.
Stupid question!:
Somebody have test the switch time last version on super Mario odyssey for 1st anniversary?

 

[binkinator]

I recently I had an isssue with my games, it say something about data being corrupted I updated everything and it was working no issues. On the unmodded side of the switch I have smash bros on the modded side I didn’t have it suddenly smash appeared on my modded side and all my games disappeared I can see my sd card has used space so I’m sure the games are there just not sure why they don’t show the switch

When you boot into your modded side, please take a screen shot of your Firmware version.

Should be able to install NSZ with Awoo/Tinwoo

The new AtmoXL-Titel-Installer is released and correct the problem installing NSZ compressed with zstd 1.5.0 and newer, by now only DBI and AtmoXL-Titel-Installer works fine.

I don’t know where my games are on my sd card I guess under Nintendo contents registered is this where I should install from ?

Appreciated!

You picture shows you have an (S) at the end of your FW version. This means you are booting CFW on (S)ysnand and not emunand. In short this means everything you are doing regardless of how you are booting is happening on yiur real eMMC. I would not be surprised if some interesting things are happening due to this confusion.

impeeza was responding to Hayato213 about an issue regarding NSZ files. AtmoXL is unrelated to your issue.

I’m sorry, but I don’t understand the question. Could you perhaps ask this question in a different way?

Guys, does anyone know how to solve this Tinfoil problem? Some games I download look like this, with this black icon

The black background with the spinning “waiting” logo is typically from a corrupt source. Try deleting from System Settings -> Data Management and installing again or find a new source for that particular game.

E: also would like to know how you installed Tinfoil. Did you use the self installer? If so did you install it via title override?

As @binkinator said your running on sysnand, did you not want an emunand setup for safety purposes as well as not getting banned

I am learning as I go how can I get the safety going ?

Go through this carefully:

https://rentry.org/SwitchHackingIsEasy

When you get to the part about CFW make sure you chose the option for your Switch type that says Emunand.

As long as you stick to the plan you will be safe as can reasonably be expected (hacking is never 100% safe.)

 

[HelloShitty]

I got nothin for you, brotha. That’s a question for suchmememanyskill He seems a little bummed with the Switch scene as of his latest comments in the thread.

I got an answer from Github member @dezem. Apparently he has a version that works on OLEDS (or at least worked for me).
The version can be downloaded here, just for reference.

considering this should have been one of the first steps you should have done after backing up your nand i hope it's not too late. how much did you do with atmosphere on your sysnand?

I re-read my response and it looks like I linked to 4.1.0 instead of 4.4.0. Damn man. Sorry about that.

Don't mention it. I think I've been also lost between 2 devs. @suchmememanyskill and @dezem repos. So, at this point I can't even say which versions I tried so far.
