Team-Xecuter is back again with yet another small news update, this time for their recently announced SX GEAR dongle

They are happy to inform those that pre-ordered will be getting it in their hands to enjoy soon, and at the same time they announced details on how you use the dongle to auto-inject any payload you wish on boot-up.

This week the early adopters of our SX Gear dongle should be getting their product in!

Most are early SX OS users who couldn't wait for SX Pro to start shipping but were quickly missing the convenience, ease of use and safety of the SX Pro Dongle and jig. SX Gear is fully compatible with SX OS. You can purchase a license separately, or use an existing SX OS license that you have and use the regular SX OS boot.dat file. You now own a SX Pro, in red color

Also, many Switch owners asked us for an official Team Xecuter product that will allow them to use other (opensource) payloads. Team Xecuter provides the best quality product and users know it is best to stick to the brand they trust to make sure they have a device they won't have to replace after 50 boots. Or worse, one that would damage their precious Switch.

SX Gear is Team Xecuter's solution for the opensource community. To use it with your favorite payload, simply download the SX Gear `boot.dat' file from our website. Place this `boot.dat' file in the root of your microSD card together with the `payload.bin' file of your choice and the payload will run as soon as you power on your switch!

That's it for today folks! Keep an eye out for the upcoming SX OS v2.0!

Cannot wait for SX Tab 5 and SX Galaxy S10

Gary, I'd like to unsubscribe from your SX news, but unlike proper spam e-mails your threads lack that option.

 

[aos10]

so, boot.dat is must be in the root of the sd card? even when you are trying to launch reiNX?
that's not really for open source community 100%.

 

[BlastedGuy9905]

Shipping only for pre-orders or you can actually buy them now without preordering? I'd gladly buy one..

 

[WiiUBricker]

Whatever happened to Team Rebug’s dongle?

 

[Baoulettes]

what the point of this?
I mean with regular jig + sx os you can load external payload *.bin
does one or two "button press" make people buy stuffs ?
Truly a question, because I do not see the point at all^^

 

[Kubas_inko]

Still waiting for SX Note tho.

Also if it is under $10 (with shipping), it's not a bad deal.

There is a way of converting any payload to boot.dat

I'll leave this simple thing here.https://t.co/EfRgYsmxAE

But this should supposedly automatically launch payload.bin on SD (if you provide their boot.dat)

This is a dongle only. No SX OS.

 

[Asia81]

Too late, mine has arrived literally today

 

[hippy dave]

Huh, so TX are the first to release a plain (no menus etc) payload chainloader. At least it exists now, would be nice to have an open source one tho.

 

[TheDarkGreninja]

This is more interesting to me at least, compared to SX OS

This is pretty useful actually for anybody who already owns the SX Pro dongle. Grab the SX Gear boot.dat, get either the hekate or ReiNX payload and put it on yourSD card named payload.bin and you can now directly load Hekate or ReiNX without having to convert the payload to a boot.dat.

 

[TheZander]

What's the news here. We already knew this thing was coming out or did come out. They announced that they are shipping preorders soon?

they didn't say anything about SX Pro, only SX Gear.
it may not be compatible.

It works fine - I just did it myself.

If anything, it proves that SX Pro dongle and SX Gear are identical.

SX Gear is red

we are talking about "injecting the payload.bin in the dongle it self" can you inject any payload into SX Pro?

I thought you were were talking about doing this with an SX pro:

Grab the SX Gear boot.dat, get either the hekate or ReiNX payload and put it on yourSD card named payload.bin and you can now directly load Hekate or ReiNX

 

[Kubas_inko]

Nope. We are talking about their new boot.dat which loads payload.bin from SD.
I gave you a way of converting payload.bin to boot.dat.
See that difference?
