What is the purpose of the warmboot_mariko folder?

It fixes an error where you need to boot into Sysnand once.

Just remove /atmosphere/contents/010000000001000 directory and themes should go away.

You need to set autohosoff. It’s documented here:

https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate#hekate-global-configuration-keysvalues-when-entry-is-config

By the Way RTC is the acronym of Real Time Clock, is a electronic device which almost any computer device have, that device keeps date and time on it and have a very accurate clock, so the main OS have not to deal with time operations, the RTC and works aside of the computer, normally is battery powered and do not loose his configuration or time even when the computer is turned off.

Sometimes you can "program" that device in order to generate an action at a specific date and time, by example, you can program that RTC to turn on (or off) the main device or trigger an interruption; that's a RTC Alarm.

On Switch you can program the RTC to turn on the device at a time, even if you had previously turned it off by the HOS.

Hekate can be configured to turn off the device if was turned on by a RTC alarm in order to avoid the battery drain.

Hi
is there any way I can export my saves games for specific games from a SD card with EmuMMC On it
and import it into a new SDcard ?

If I go to this path
SDCard\emuMMC\SD00\Nintendo\save
I only have 2 files
8000000000000000
8000000000000124

Do I need a specific tool or I can just copy appropriate files

Any help would be appreciate

thank you

So, i just got my switch with atmosphere running. And i have been installing/uninstalling some games. But i noticed that im missing some space. For example i just uninstalled sonic frontiers (which was about 10gb) and now it shows that i only have 4gb free.
i was trying to figure out which folders/files from emummc/raw1/nintendo/contents/registered belong to what games, in order to delete the ones that are no longer installed, and i stumbled upon this unanswered question. maybe someone has any info on this

Do you have a screenshot of where you’re looking at space? What size SD card are you using?

Hello,

I'm running Atmosphere on my V1 switch and am trying to install a NSP file using Goldleaf to my SD card. I get the following error when trying to install:

Hello,

I'm running Atmosphere on my V1 switch and am trying to install a NSP file using Goldleaf to my SD card. I get the following error when trying to install:

Don't use Goldleaf. It is arguably the worst title installer for various reasons. Use literally any other installer such as TinWoo Installer. Its what I personally use and I never have any issues while using it.

 

[TheJinKazama]

Thanks, the game has now installed using the installer you mentioned. When I try to launch it, it tries to go online (I have intentionally not input Wi-Fi data on my emuMMC). How do I get around this?

Hey I have a V5 chip for the OLED installed, and after turning the console on it starts training and afterwards goes slowly green and right at the end goes red and restarts the process.. Someone have a clue why? The solderpoints are okay and all in the desired specification.

You are missing the sigpatches https://gbatemp.net/threads/sigpatches-for-atmosphere-hekate-fss0-fusee-package3.571543/

Hello,
I find that dongles are pretty convenient to start in RCM mode (compared to tegraRcmGUI). Can it be understood that the dongle is simply a usb stick that has the correct files inside ?
Said differently : Can I replace my SX dongle (or the other one that I see almost everywhere and that seems to be called "RCMloader"), by a usb TYPE-C stick with all atmosphere/nro/necessary files inside to boot into atmosphere/hekate ?
Thanks

Thanks for this. I copied the files in the Hekate+AMS-package3-sigpatches-1.4.1-cfw-15.0.1 to the atmosphere and bootloader folders on my SD card and tried to run the game again but it still asked me to connect to the internet. I have since deleted the game and am copying it to my SD card to try the install once again.

Am I missing something?

Nop, for replace the dongle (RCMLoader, atmosphere NX, sx whatever is called) you need a USB cable and a computer or a phone with a program like rekado for Android or TegraRcm -TegraRcmGui- for windows and a binary payload like Hekate or fusee.bin

Yep follow the guides on the op of the sigpatches page mainly: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-fix-switch-games-not-booting-after-a-fw-cfw-update.563960/

 

[TheJinKazama]

Reinstalling the game worked after copying the sigpatches as instructed. Thanks for all your help.

When I launch the game (I haven't installed any update files or DLC yet), the system tells me there is a new update available. How does it know this without being connected to the internet?

take a look at the graphic below and match what you are seeing to the error indicated.

Do you have a screenshot of where you’re looking at space? What size SD card are you using?

I'm legitimately curious about roskos storage issue. I mean how could that happen? bad sd maybe bad install? I have a file based emunand so im always scared any big install to it might corrupt it and avoid those perfectly good gigs of space because this is the kind of stuff you worry about><

Ya, me too. @roks0 needs to respond for us to find out more. I have a feeling they might be looking in the wrong place?

Hello.
For the past 3 days I have been hacking my unpatched switch by following the rentry guide, using the latest hetake, atmosphere and sigpatches(using the sigpatches from that thread in this site, substituting the files of the one offered in rentry).
However, now that I have installed my first .nsp title with DBI, the game loads a black screen, in which it shows the volume changing with the buttons, as well as the menu when you hold the home button, but doesn’t respond when I select sleep mode.
Also when I try to select anything like restart or power off with the power button it ignores the command, only turning off when I hold the power button for a few seconds.
First I thought the problem was DBI, so I tried installing Tinfoil, yet when I opened the installer on the homebrew page, the same black screen problem occurred. The app seemed to be installed when I opened atmosphere afterwards, and yet, again, the same black screen problem occurred.
I had tried this all on FW 9.0, so I updated to 15.0.1 to see if it worked but there was no progress.
I read it on Reddit that this could be caused by homebrews such as tesla, and I remember installing that on the microSD, so I tried to delete the folders the zips added but couldn’t find “contents” on the atmosphere folder, so again there was no change.
I found it weird that the DBI homebrew opened fine while the Tinfoil one didn’t, but I hope someone can identify the black screen problem of mine.
Thank you.

So your switch boots just fine, correct?

You got your Sigpatches from here, yes?
