Thank you, It's on exfat formatted from the Nintendo switch. Any idea on what missing files and archive bits?

hbmenu.nro from root of sd card and use hekate to fix archive bits

Do you have the exfat update on your switch/what firmware is it

 

[maxcala]

I have the hbmenu.nro on the root of the folder. It's on 6.2. Any link to a tut please?

Boot into maintenance mode to clear out the pending system update. You can do this by holding volume + and - when turning your console on. Once you enter the maintenance mode screen, thats it. You can turn off your console by pressing power...

thank you so much!

What is the cleanest way to install .XCI files using SX OS that are larger than 4Gb on FAT32 formatted SD card?

Currently I have tried:

- XCI Cutter then copy to Micro SD manually - did not see how to load in SX installer

- USB stick formatted in ExFat and install via SX installer - first attempt failed but second seems to be getting further

FTP looks interesting but so far I am keeping wifi off on this device, paranoid about a ban even if I am not likely to access online anytime soon

Any other advice / tips please?

Bump this - anyone have any tips? currently using XCI Cutter to exFAT USB method and then install to MicroSD using SX installer but its painfully slow with a 400Gb MicroSD to fill!

I accidentally updated to 7.0.0 no NAND backup, if i reset it to factory settings would it revert to the deafult software version?

no

 

[asdatoan]

no

Is there any work around, or would I have to wait for the stable release of 7.0.0 to come out

I have bought a SX OS license but dont have a dongle.
I use tegrarcm as my payload injector.
I have sx os installed on the switch but it is a free version.
Can anyone direct me on what to do with the license i have.

Activate your license-request on the SX OS website and put the license.dat on the root of your micro sd card.

Hi There,

trying to upgrade to ReiNX 2.0 from a previous ReiNX. Updated the sd card with the new files. However when I use TegraRCM to inject the payload, it goes through the anime screen, then reenters RCM mode. Try to re inject it repeatedly, but always goes back to RCM mode.

I'm on FW 6.1.0, sd card is Fat32,

With Stealth Mode, you're kind of protected from a ban since that is the whole purpose of Stealth Mode; to use wireless services such as FTP safely. Your only other alternative is to convert the .XCI files into .NSP format then use something like USB install to install the new .NSP files.

Do a clean install meaning remove any ReiNX folders and files from your SD card then put the new files on. If that doesn't work, do the same process but with one of the nightly versions from the guide.

Your going to have to use a tool called Fat32format or you can use easeus partition manager.

What capabilities does a banned switch lose?

 

[shado9573]

What capabilities does a banned switch lose?

Access to Eshop.
Acces to online play.
Basically everything other than maybe system updates.
Other than that be free to run and hack using CFW for the rest of eternity.

What capabilities does a banned switch lose?

Depending on the type of ban, the Switch will lose:

1. Online play
2. eShop access and game updates
3. System updates

eShop items, game updates, and system updates can be installed offline using homebrew.
