Homebrew Homebrew app Ultrahand Overlay - The fully craft-able overlay executor

For me it takes a while to connect, the fastest alternative is studios pancake.

For me even the timeout is very long, sometimes I use studios pancake to reboot the console to UMS and if is an error you have to wait long time to timeout.

i solely use ultra hand for getting to things quickly whether thats hekate, stock, ums and reboot and power off it all works fine for me so i dont know why you have issues. i do use modchip console oled if that makes a difference but it shouldnt do

How long does it normally take to download a music pack with easy installer I've been waiting for 2 and a half hours is that normal?

updated. for example packages check out

I am having a hell of a time trying to make any package appear in the ultrahand overlay menu. I have attempting to use your example packages but for some reason they are not showing up. I followed your instructions and I placed the entire example folder inside ".packages".

Like Easy Installer for example. But it still does not want to show up in the menu. It is important to note that I have everything updated. Everything that is needed is running on the latest versions. If you could perhaps upload a screenshot of how it should look like I would REALLY appreciate it.

Edit: Good God Bruh. I kept pressing start (+). I thought THAT menu is where packages show up. But I only had to press RIGHT in the D pad. I'm good man. Thanks for Ultrahand buddy. It's kick ass.

Edit2: Why is "OC Toolkit (mariko only)" Not available on my mariko unit?

Glad it worked out. I setup the necessary commands to make OC Toolkit Erista compatible, but I just never got around to applying everything myself. However I'm sure that it "might" exist now somewhere out there. I do know some devs were working on it. It's not hard to set it up for Erista, but it just takes a little time.

when i try to open reversenx from ultrahand menu, nothing happens. ultrahand overlay disappears and i'm not able to open it again afterwards, any idea what i'M doing wrong?
I have overlay and ultrahand updated as far as possible, reverse and salty latest files too

See my comments on the issue. Changing licenses for publicly licensed projects is not something that I am allowed to do, but licensing my own code is. I left those licenses intact for this very reason. Not all code in Ultrahand Overlay will fall under the CC-BY-NC 4.0 license, nor do I claim it does.

[Kaizen_3090]

it should be the same as Tesla menu. you add the .ovl file to

/switch/.overlays/

then it should show up in your overlay menu

Ultrahand Overlay 1.4.9

Is version 18.0.0 still supported?

Ultrahand Overlay 1.4.9

From what I have heard, yes. However I will have to update libnx very soon for the compilation.

 

[ppkantorski]

Just released v1.5.0.

List of changes:

1. Introduction of new pchtxt2ips method, called `pchtxt2ips <PCHTXT_FILE_PATH> <OUTPUT_FOLDER>`.
   • This allows the easy conversion of .pchtxt files into .ips binaries.
2. Download commands now show a downloading indicator (footer) to help users understand when a file is downloading.
3. Failed replacements now return `null` instead of `-1`. Failed json replacements now return `Not available` (UNAVAILABLE_SELECTION variable).
4. Bug fix for starring / favoriting hidden overlays and packages.
5. libnx has been updated.

I will post the text when I get home from work. It was relatively easy to set up once I knew how tbh

Post automatically merged: Dec 8, 2023

here is the exact text you need - open your switch folder on sd card, then pakcages folder and then the package.ini and paste this text in and same it thats it done - you will now have hekate, shutdown, stock and ums in your ultra menu on the packages screen - if you want to make sure these show when you first open the ultra menu like i have then you just change the option in the config folder to open packages menu first.

[Hekate]
reboot

[Shutdown]
shutdown

[Stock]
reboot boot Stock

[UMS]
reboot UMS

@ppkantorski
