Got it working changed to a 32gb same result.

In the end went to tools dump boot. That dumped now it works

Not sure why that made it work. Was i supposed to do that first??

Not sure why it worked after and not before. I dumped mine before I even booted into Horizon so I can't really say.

Let me tell you something interesting: up until now I didn't even try to launch the fg sample payload but after checking this release (I am on 4.0.1 by the way), I got excited and gave it a go. Right now? Homebrew is rocking on my switch and I even played some of this Zelda Solarus game. I'm currently getting a rawnand back-up on my 128 GB SD card.

What a great release this is! Thank you a bunch!

Only reason i tried it was someone on a video did this first before he booted the cfw.

His would not dump but did boot cfw

Maybe it's a sd recognition bug or something not sure. Sucesfully run ScummVM

Don't update..Stay where u are this does next to nothing..in the end you will probably get full CFW before 4.x.x i'm on this 4.1.0 right now and it's almost useless unless you want to play A zelda homebrew.
No, everyone is getting the same CFW at the same time. Please make sure you read the latest information before attempting to help others. It's also not useless as some users want to backup their NANDs before attempting any type of homebrew hijinks.

Does this work using NXLoader on android??

I just tried it the menu loads up.

Select cfw

Screen changes about 6 lines of text flash up quickly.. think l last one says rebuilding something.

Goes black switch logo comes up

Boots into the switch but I press gallery but my pictures show up......

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong

Seen this if sd is most full or cable is not right. . Nxloader is how I deploy it all from an s8 edge.

What's model? I just ordered 128Gb MicroSD Samsung EVO Plus Class 10. Now i'm kinda afraid that i need to cancel it.
128GB Samsung EVO, the UHS-3 one, it'll probably have the same issue but you don't have to cancel it, this is only a bug with Hekate's current version, the devs at Reswitched have already fixed it, so when the proper CFW comes out, it'll work

Νοοb question. When we turn off the console..we need to do any step again?
You will have to do everything again..as far as the jig and booting it back up..sd stuff should already be done.

So your saying he should update? Because I don't think that's the best advice either.

No, I'm saying you shouldn't tell people that one firmware is getting something quicker than the other. All FW are getting it at the same time, so if he WANTS to update, it's fine. He's not missing anything except a software entry point in the future.

Awesome, I just ran this payload for the first time with the jig I ordered today, works as expected. However, the crashing in sleepmode issue is certainly not something enjoyable, it would be nice to keep the device in sleepmode and always have access to HBL. Anyway, it's a good proof of concept. Thanks a ton for providing this!

Ok the time thing isn't main point I was trying to make. I wouldn't update for this...yet..But after looking again he is on 3.0.2 not the golden 3.0.0 so maybe he should. I think that might be the most useless FW to be on right now. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Then you may want to make that more clear in the future. From that sentence alone, you made it seem that lower firmwares were going to get CFW before others, which is false. That's all I was meaning to point out.

Could u point me to the spot it says all at once? Last I read it was sounding like it was gonna be A staggered release kinda thing. Although from another pinned thread it says this
  • 3.0.1 - 4.1.0 are interchangeable, and also good. If you're on them, *stay* on them. They are "safe" for custom firmware, but you currently cannot use the Homebrew Launcher with them. It will need a hardmod to launch CFW, but will eventually see a hardmod-less solution.
Seems to be A little out of date with the HBL thing but maybe 3.0.2 is the "same" as 4.1.0. Might not need to update at all to use the current release of things. Even NAND backup.

That's old and hasn't been updated. This was before RCM was public. That's what the hardmod statement was referencing. See below.

You *may* get it sooner on 1.0.0, so I do stand corrected, but the user we were talking about wasn't on 1.0.0, as most people are not on 1.0.0. Note, this is also before RCM was made public, but that doesn't matter considering that we all know what the "less convenient" statement was referencing.

Good deal. I remember that now. All good I just didn't want that person to update. The CFW thing I shoulda been more clear about but now I know it doesn't matter unless ur on 1.0.0. All good the more info people know the better.

I have been trying to run this but hit some roadblocks. I 3d printed the fail0verflow jig made for the usb connector, but can't figure out how to actually get the connector out of the usb to put in the jig. Are there any video tutorials on it?
The micro usbs I tried didn't have the same chip as his so I printed one where you run a wire through and it works great. It's really easy to do. Look up user Maketo on thingiverse and it's on his profile.

    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
