Good to know, thanks

So despite trying multiple guides, I couldn't figure out how to migrate from SXOS to Atmosphere. After a lot of wasted time, I did a fresh install of Atmosphere on a new micro sd card and backed up all my saves using JKSV for transfer. The only thing I couldn't figure out was how to reinstall all my games that were on the SXOS micro sd card (Tinfoil didn't recognize any installable game files). I ended up acquiring the games again.

Thanks to all who helped.

Just formatted my SD, then put alllll the files back onto it. I got atmosphere error code 2144-0001 (0x290) when attempting to launch homebrew. Help

Error code still happens when I try and open photos. However it did say there's a new update available, should I download it?

The update doesn't have anything to do with your homebrew launcher problem.

You're not supposed to be trying to open photos. You're supposed to try holding the R button down, launching a GAME while still holding the R button down, and not letting go of the R button until the HBL comes up.

You hold the top trigger "R" down, keep it held down, you press "A" once on any game icon on the home screen, while still holding down "R", until you see the homebrew menu appear, then you let go of the "R" trigger button.

Okay, this time all I got was unable to start software

Did you install Tinfoil by chance, if so, can you access the homebrew menu from there? I seen a thread last week where this was the case, Tinfoil somehow messed up the homebrew menu access. @Hayato213 any ideas?

Nope. I think I might've forgotten to copy fusee.bin onto my SD card, and that's what's tripping it up.

Try replacing Atmosphere files.

You need all the files included in the zip of atmosphere on your sd card, even the hbmenu.nro

Yeah that's probably it.

I followed youtube tutorials to mod my Mariko switch and I admit I was not fully understanding the process and I used youtubers' zip files to mod it. Everything was working fine until today I wanted to update my CFW to 17.0.1. It updated fine but then when I attempted to update OFW I realized something weird.

My switch in OFW shows firmware in this format: "16.0.2|AMS 1.6.1|S"

Now I didn't pay much attention to it before as I assumed that's how it's supposed to be. But when watching youtube today for instance this video: (skip to 12:56)
I realized this guy has this info in completely clean format so no mention of "AMS |S".

Why is that? What did I do wrong (if any)? Does the fact that my console mentions AMS in sysnand make it dirty?
How can I have it in clean format like in the video?

Another question. Is this normal that in Sysnand (OFW) I see all the homebrew apps in gallery? It confuses me because if OFW is supposed to be clean not to get banned how come sysnand can get access to homebrew apps? Won't Nintendo see this when I go online to update my firmware?

You suppose to create an emunand to seperate your homebrew and pirated content from online content, and don't follow a youtube video, follow a written guide like https://rentry.org/SwitchHackingIsEasy

That doesn't answer my question at all. I did that. I have separate sysnand and emunand icon in hekate. However my sysnand has "AMS" in firmware name and I don't know why and if it's safe.

Also the second question. Is it normal that from sysnand I see homebrew apps in gallery?
