Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Draxzelex]

Is there a way to transfer screenshots off the Switch without storing them in SD, shutting down the console, and copying them off the card? It seems the social media function doesn't work if you have Nintendo servers blocked

You can try using FTP or nxmtp, both of which require CFW/homebrew on your console.

Thanks, nxmtp is what I was looking for

@Draxzelex Thank you this was exactly what i´ve been looking for.

But I stuck at this Step 7. I downloaded the 6.1 firmware like you mention it from *snip*

I also made the needed hactool keys.

But get this error building it:
Using source firmware files from folder C:/Firmware
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ChoiDujour.py", line 517, in <module>

Is the firmware wrong or my keys?

Most likely the keys. Did you get them from the payload I provided you?

I've seen people recommend Aliexpress. I would recommend eBay but I think some of them were being taken down, likely due to the association with hacking and more importantly piracy but there might be some still up for sale.

I tried Aliexpress but they are sold out

I just got a new switch. Firmware 4.1 and the serial number is hackable. I want to follow the guild that allows me to run EMUNAND and keep SYSNAND online: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-setup-emunand-keep-sysnand-online.520471/

Is this still an ok guide to follow? My only concern is updating to 6.1. Is there a guide to updating the SYSNAND offline? Also, is 6.1 the highest I should go? I want to do homebrew and play backups on the EMUNAND. Can EMUNAND with SX OS go to 7.0?

Sorry for being such a noob. I just started reading about Switch hacking yesterday.

Yes, that guide appears to be up-to-date as not much as changed in the EmuNAND front, at least on TX's side. However do not update the EmuNAND above 6.2 as SX OS cannot boot CFW on firmware 7.X currently.

I'm using way too old version of Tinfoil. As I'm looking for update, I'm very consfused. Is Goldleaf new version of old Tinfoil, is it good and safe to use or is there better title manager?

Goldleaf is a spiritual successor to Tinfoil. It is supposed to perform the same function as Tinfoil but it doesn't use any of Tinfoil's code which explains why people often find it bugger than Tinfoil. I usually recommend the 883e build from lavatech for people who want to continue using Adubbz' Tinfoil.

@Draxzelex
so I tried the LockpickRCM method and get even more error with the keys. compared the sbk and tsec key and there are the same.

[WARN]: Failed to match key "master_kek_05", (value "x")
[WARN]: Failed to match key "master_kek_02", (value "x")
[WARN]: Failed to match key "master_kek_03", (value "x")
[WARN]: Failed to match key "master_kek_00", (value "x")
[WARN]: Failed to match key "master_kek_01

Next I read on a post to delete these master key and I was able to create the Firmware. Go through the tutorial do a System initialize. The safe Folder was empty in my Build so I let it empty. After finishing the Flash i load the hekate payload and try to Launch the FS_610 and get this error massage: Unknown package1. Failed to launch Firmware.

Notice something odd. My Biskey 2 and 3 are the same
. Is this Normal?

Alright, so interesting problem i've run into. I've run into this quirk that I can't seem to avoid. After I've installed from NSP using Goldleaf, the game works fine (this has happened with several games, so I'm not bothering to name specifics). I delete the old file, the game starts fine, it runs perfectly, everything is hunky-dory. But when I eject the card to add more files over, when I return to the Switch menu, the game no opens. I receive the error code "2005-0005" which I understand is the code for "The data is missing". And sure enough, looking at the title in Goldleaf doesn't work, as it just won't go into the title details of the game at all, the switch's data management sees the game as having 0 data, but the count of used data remains the same. As in, I have 53 GB after I install the game and trash the NSP file, and then after the Switch begins to see the game as having zero data, the same amount of data on the SD card is shown, 53 GB. I'm just trying to figure out how to avoid this problem in the future, if anyone knows anything about it, please, I'm all ears.

The Console is 7.0.1, Atmosphere is 0.8.5, and I'm using a MacOs High Sierra machine for file management. Card is exfat.

Grab and launch the latest version of ReiNX from here.

Don't use exFAT. It can corrupt your SD card. Switch to FAT32.

It boot now. It shows the Splashscreen of ReiNX but still stuck on the Switch Logo. Anything else I could try? Do I need the Jumperwire still or take it out when it boot?

Try the latest version of Atmosphere to see if it can generate an error code that may pinpoint the problem.

So on ReiNX its boots to the switch Logo. On Atmosphere it boot with the splashspreen shows the Nintendo Logo and stay black.
