Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

[linuxares]

Gawd you freaking legend, can I ask if this version btw have continued "flashing" (the led blinks for a dongle to keep sending the payload) or is it just for the internal modchips?

EDIT: I am blind, it's for modchips

It's for both. Take a look at post 2

Oooh, I wonder which one works with @electronrancher dongle. I believe the R4S is quite a like.

Both should

Just wanna say thanks for all the work you've put into this thread and the install thread, they've both come a really long way.

Very kind.

It's been a good group effort by everybody

Dumb question but don't I need to make any folders or such for this version? Because Hekate doesn't boot of the UF2 now does it?

No such thing as a dumb question. Only dumb answers!

No... You don`t need to make any folders. Here we are... Some situations...
If "payload.bin" / "payload<yourpayloadnumber>.bin" isnt there and bootloader folder IS PRESENT - Will use existing bootloader folder

If "payload.bin" / "payload<yourpayloadnumber>.bin" isnt there and bootloader folder IS NOT PRESENT - Will create bootloader / sys / ini / payload folders as usual.

If "payload.bin" / "payload<yourpayloadnumber>.bin" IS there, no folders are used or made as your payload is already running completely bypassing Hekate menu / tools.

Hope this helps!

Okey, I need to find UF2 file that works with my dongle then. So far no luck.

OK... What dongle?

 

[linuxares]

OK... What dongle?

A SAMD21

Intresting, I think I have bricked my dongle by flashing a SWITCHBOOT file

 

[josete2k]

Tested an internal RCM-X86 (only joycon strap) with success... Thanks

Hmmm... Read me the numbers on the chip... If it says E18 or G18 then it <reputation on line> cant brick.

Worse that can happen is the LEDs will be wrong / buttons or whatever... Should still open to UF2 drive.

Let me know.

 

[linuxares]

It does open the Drive but I can't get it to send payloads. I need to rebuild it with the sourcecode

 

[mattytrog]

OK... can I help?

Yeah, I don't get how
Trinket_Rebug_Joycon_Only.uf2 could reprogram the bootloader.

Because no other UF2 does that. So I'm very confused. Both my htm file and .txt file have changed name. And it seems that the bootloader isn't included in the sourcecode from Electronrancher.

OK... Looks like we need to build you a new bootloader.

Yes, the joycon_only is a replacement UF2 bootloader that controls the straps.

To fix this, I`d need to know the pinouts of your board. A pic of both sides of it. I can build you one then. I think it is a SAMD21G18 without a crystal.
