Hi,
I have an HTC U11, and bought a USB C to USB C cable.
I assumed being a 'flagship' I would have no issues, but nothing seems to come up.
I plug in phone, turn on Switch (auto RCM)…. nothing.

Can anyone confirm if this phone works? Or, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Read the post right before yours. When everything passes make sure your cable is actually OTG capable.

That 'OTG Checker' app only checks the Android OS.
The cable I got is probably a POS from Hong Kong....
Thanks anyway.
AFAIK Nxloader is only for Android

Edit
And if it doesn't say OTG in the details of where you got it. Don't even count on it working.

Edit edit
Unless you purchased a switch pro controller then that cable works

I installed os sx last night with this and took ages ended up it was the usb c cable. Not the otg but actually the usb-c cable used another and works straight away. Just an idea.

Ha, I know it's only for Android!
Sorry, I should've elaborated.... I have no problem running TegraRCM GUI from my Windows PC and my Pro Controller cable. I just wanted a 'portable' solution since I'm flying international soon.
I reckon it's the cable.... I've sent them a message and see if they reply.
Cheers.

Just buy a OTG adapter and you're good to go.

it's a kernel problem of some devices. We can say NX Loader could be built in a better way...

I have a HTC U11 too, did you manage to get it to work?

Yep - it was the dodgy cable I bought that was the problem.
Buy yourself a USB OTG adapter, use that with the pro controller cable - winning!

Ahh, did you use a OTG with USB C to USB A? Did you try it with USB C to USB C? As i have a lot of C to C cables lying around and would make sense to use them and not buy additional OTG haha. I will need to get an OTG if i want to try it.

USB C to USB A - plug in pro controller cable. Never an issue.

My friend uses a USB C to USB C cable with no issues. Obviously better quality than the ebay garbage I bought. To each their own. But for me, USB OTG adapter is the way to go.

Not sure why but my USB C to C is not working, do you know how he got it to work? Would love to use C to C instead.

I have a s8+ which is supported but could never get it to launch. I installed a second android app, forget them name, and with them both on my phone, nxloader does now launch - weird glitch!

    they need to have a strong line up on the launch titles too. I think they should move metroid prime 4 to the next console because by now it has been quite a while and there's no release date scheduled yet

    lol there's a guy selling mig switch in usa on ebay for $200/ea he's definitely going to get nailed with dmca by tomorrow

    Wasn't Metroid Prime 4 teased all the way back in 2017? For the switch no less?

    Pretty sure anyone buying the switch just for that got duped

    for $200? rofl.
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    well as far as metroid prime 4 is concerned, the next system probably is similar enough to the current gen they can probably easily just slap it onto a next gen cart and call it good :P

    The switch was about 350 in 2017

    Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima took the stage at the outset to reveal that Switch will launch globally on March 3, 2017 for $299.99—earlier than some had expected at the price many suspected. https://time.com/4632820/nintendo-switch-nx/

    There has to be some mutual agreement with them all anything over $600 is just pc territory

    The 3DO and Neo Geo where like 700 bucks hmm the PS3 was stupid expensive at launch lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But at least the PS3 was only 500 for the cheapest one at launch

    My opinion is that 199.99 is the sweet spot but that spot is long gone lol
