Hacking Sigpatches for Atmosphere (Hekate, fss0, fusee & package3)

[linuxares]

Thanks a lot for this, works great
DBI user, don't forget to upgrade to 616 Version . XCI or nsp install won't work with older version .

Question! Can you try installing a forwarder? I've heard they been the big bastard of the 17 patches

sorry, i don't use forwarder .... it seems to be too complicated for me... ( ask me a prod.keys) . Wich tool do you use ?

Honestly, when I see them on the "Kittycat party" site. I would assume they're safe/working.

EDIT: And they are! Since I know who uploads them, I really assume they work.

what difference are between this and the OP ones?

so i manually added the sigpatches linked on the last page, and re downloaded the newest atmosphere. my ini file is correct, but i'm getting a yellow screen when i try to boot emunand. its been years since i hacked this thing and i just updated when the new stuff comes out. my ofw partition is on the latest ofw.

anyone have any idea if i did something wrong or what i can do to fix it?

Tinfoil is working for me fine. I’ve not tried to install a new one, if you tell me one I can try it for you and let you know the results

I guess that should count

so its just a bug? what can i do to fix it? the comments talk about connecting to nintendo servers, which i dont do. and its not really a "crash" as far as i can tell. I know the ini file being wrong originally would set this yellow screen.

Apparently some files are bigger and sys-patch files are left in it.

read, the thread, you need to undo your prodinfo wipe.

Perfect! If you need something to test I’m here for you hahah

Almost, it miss the .overlay file as well

Yeah we decided against including the overlay

Maybe it's the patch that's needed? I donno

That nifm patch adds a call to svcSleep, I added it to sys-patch and shared it with h others. So it won't be that

Well I took the dive and updated my Switch to 17.0.0 yesterday alongside all of the latest stuff for it (sigpatches, Atmosphere 1.6.1, firmware 17.0.0 gotten from somewhere, MatterControl and other stuff). The update went through just fine, and it properly reads 17.0.0 alongside Atmosphere 1.6.1.

However, I stumbled upon a really weird issue.
It seems like the game I had in the SD card got corrupted somehow, all of them. I got a fullscreen message as soon as I entered the home screen saying that the "Data in the microSD seems to be corrupted" and that it had to delete the data in the SD, but it only deleted the games it seems, since everything else was still there (all my files, ROMs, atmos setup, etc.)

Any particular reason why this might have happened?
I ran the games just before updating to check them and they ran fine, and just after updating to 17.0.0 I got that message.
Even though the games got deleted, I didn't lose much, I only had BotW, TotK and Skyward HD in the SD, everything else I had in the Switch's internal memory, and those games played fine after the update to 17.0.0 with the updated sigpatches released yesterday (so I can confirm those work )

Oh, one last thing, the only module that seems to be screwing up with 17.0.0 is ldn_mitm, anyone knows where I can get an updated one for 17.0.0?

What fw were you on before? I've got a bit of time tomorrow so I'll try and reproduce it

read, the thread, you need to undo your prodinfo wipe.

the thread on the github you linked? i only see how to reproduce it, not to fix it. am i overlooking something?

un wipe your produinfo,

This is the nifm patch: https://armconverter.com/?lock=arm6...F0, lsl #16 svc #0xB mov x0, xzr ret&offset=0

I added it as a hacky way to address this issue: https://github.com/misson20000/exefs_patches/issues/30

Idk if it fixed it because I couldn't reproduce the linked issue. In fact, no one could. But still, adding a sleep in the middle is harmless and should fix it for anyone that did have the problem

I have no idea what this means. I'm a layman who followed switchguides and everything just worked

for anyone who happens to read my question and thinks their problem is related to mine. it was entirely user error. i copied an old atmosphere folder to my sd card and not the newest one. i have no idea why that set off a yellow screen or why i'm missing my exosphere.ini file tho.

If im currently on 16.1.0 and wish to update to 17.0.0 and only use sysnand can i update firmware, then update Atmopshere and add new sigpatches and all will be fine.
I will then do a nand backup

Why do you need to update?
