Homebrew WIP nxmtp: access your SD Card over USB without rebooting

[szczuru]

@liuervehc any updates?

Are there instructions on how to run it? I plugged cable to my windows 10, went to sxos homebrew, ran nxmtp and nothing happened. Did I miss a step or its just not working?

Spotted a problem. Was trying to delete my old Retroarch folder (just shy of 1Gb) and kept getting connection issues. I'm assuming it's to do with the folder size

Thanks, I'll take a look.

I plan to examine any possible issues with Windows 7 soon.

Try running nxmtp before you plug in. Are you looking under "This PC" in File Explorer?

Its working ok for me!
Thanks for this amazing tool!

Simple app that works, excellent. Just what was needed my micro sd card slot thanks you lol. Anyway to allow files greater than 4GB transfer?

Works fine on 6.0.1 ReiNX 2.0

Mojave. I installed libUSB and pyUSB in the past in order to send payloads or install NSP via USB, maybe that's interfering.

Check in Activity Monitor, see if something called PTPCamera starts when you connect nxmtp. It was for me, and that was blocking mtp clients from detecting the Switch. You can kill PTPCamera from Activity Monitor, then start the mtp client (eg Android File Transfer is working great for me now). Disabling PTPCamera permanently is less straightforward tho.

Worked well for me, on OSX 10.11.6 (El Capitan), Switch FW 6.1.0 Atmo 0.8.2.
Only thing I noticed is it took a while for any transfer to start (once it did, it was fast!).

 

[ImSoHandsome]

This only allows transfer of files less than 4gb right?

 

[WiseFool]

Yea I'm on exfat and I want to copy nsp larger than 4gb

When you use Github you should also provide the source code, not just a README.

Normally I would agree, but honestly, with TX team stealing everyone's shit, this might be for the better.
I mean everyone kept saying, "If you don't want them to steal your code, then don't make it open-source."

Working great, thanks for your hard work.

Only request I have is to keep the screen on until you exit the app.

Great application! This makes hacdiscmount obsolete for live nand mounting! I also have been taking the time to make icons for NROs without them. I took the time and made one for nxmtp, if anyone would like to use it, feel free! To modify/add an icon to an NRO, google search NRO Asset Editor, top link is GBATemp. Link: i.imgur.com/yW7inFx.jpg

If anyone wants a link to download it, just PM me and I'll upload them. Use NRO Asset Editor to add icons to NROs without any! It's the top link on google when searched, it's on here!

Yes. You can even transfer files without closing a game.

Exactly, this is the same thing as removing the MicroSD, and putting it into your PC. EXCEPT you can now also browse the entire NAND live by using this!

cool thank you so much for that , i was hoping this , now lets hope it works with SXOs

 

[peteruk]

Looks great, thank you

In the next release I would like to see a full set of instructions including what is requires pc side of things

It's already worked on SX.

It seems like there's a way to do that, at least a couple of homebrews have it implemented now but I'm not sure if it's documented for everybody. But in the meantime, you can turn off auto-sleep in system settings.
