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

[lordelan]

There was a time where I used memloader quite often and would have been very happy about something like this but nowadays there's mostly two scenarios:

1. Install games -> USB install (AluminumFoil/Fluffy/Goldtree)
2. Transfering smaller files -> FTP

It's good to store a weekly full Checkpoint backup of everything on the PC though.

I find it very handy, I am in a situation where I have done several units for friends and family so their kids dont lose the tiny game cartridges (installed to SD). Its nice to do updates of CFW and FW and filing backups without popping out the SDs all the time. I avoid FTP because I keep them offline because they can't be trusted to use 90dns, lol...

Hmm I'm a bit worried. Is this project DOA?

I think it just hasn't been updated because it's working.
I had problems with it on release, and the dev was very keen to get it working, made test builds and got me to do wireshark captures etc to figure out the problem. Problem turned out to be my end, macos automatically starting some process that was blocking it. Once I fixed that, the original release version has been working fine, so no updates needed.

If so, I hope OP can release a updated statement on Github and message one of the mods to get this from WIP to Release.

This project needs more recognition. One of the most useful tools out there.

SXOS, fw5.1
Android file transfer

USB-C to usb-A GoPro wire. works fine so far, transferred a 3gb file into microSD (exFAT). laggy starting out but picked up speeds after that. Fast speeds indeed!

How do yall get it to copy files from win 10 pc to switch. Its not letting me copy files from my pc to the switch

It works. Just a lot of bugs. It may work it may not.

Has this project been abandoned already? Just one release?

Looks like it is.

Looks like it is.

Boo! Maybe this function can be incorporated in NXShell or Goldleaf. Those are being actively worked on.

 

[Zumoly]

Looks like it is.

Then again this homebrew works amazingly!
Was it not for lack of exFAT support (files larger than 4gb) it would be complete.

That it is a limitation of MTP itself. Therefore it cannot be implemented.

Folder is marked as archived but it contains split files that are less than 4gb.

I have same experience - the split NSP folders lose the archive bit during file transfer, therefore it's not possible to install them. The file transfer is accurate but the folder attribute disappears during copy, this is the only issue on Fat32 what I found.

Thank you very much for this essential program, it works really well.

Solid Explorer works really well with MTP devices.

 

[masagrator]

NX-Shell doesn't have option to make archive attribute?

I've asked the dev to post source so community can help improve it
