Hi,

Quick recap... I wanted to get my 7.0.1 switch keys. Running Reinx the wholetime now but after my 7.0.1 update i now see when i put the reinx payload
Reinx screen > Atmosphere flashes a few seconds then back to Reinx loader screen and loads as Reinx.

I went and used Lockpin.bin to get my keys.

Since then it always boots full atmosphere, even if i deleted atmosphere from the SD card.
I re downloaded Reinx, and put on SD card and PC files re updated.
Still tries to boot to Atmosphere and says i'm missing my secondary fusee file. If i add those it boots me full into atmosphere still even though i'm using the ReiNX payload.

Only work around i found is i got Argon-NX to boot, then select Reinx, And it works like normal.

I would like to just have it stop booting into atmosphere and back into ReinX using the ReinX payload as usual...Reason is Atmosphere wont play any of the games and my homebrew menu etc wont show up to install games.

Any idea?

Thanks for any help. Tried for many hours and giving up.

Are you sure you're actually in Atmosphere? I think on 7.0.1 ReiNX uses Atmosphere's sept payload which is why you see the Atmosphere logo.

When you think you're in Atmosphere, go to system settings and check your firmware version. If it doesn't have (AMS x.x.x) next to your version, then you're not in Atmosphere.

When i go to my system settings it actually just said 7.0.1
Maybe it didnt boot into anything then but regular firmware?
If so , Any idea on how to just get it to Reinx?

Confusing part for me is that when using the ReiNX payload, shouldnt it just go to ReiNX?

THanks

ReiNX is just really old Atmosphere + really old Hekate. Just use Atmosphere. https://gbatemp.net/posts/8551300/

Atmosphere works fine. To play games, grab these sig patches, extract to SD. https://gbatemp.net/threads/i-heard-that-you-guys-need-some-sweet-patches-for-atmosphere.521164/

To get into the homebrew menu, HOLD R while selecting Album.

To quote:

Delete everything on SD except for the folders named 'Nintendo' and 'Switch'.

Download latest Atmosphere, extract to SD. https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases

Download sig patches, extract to SD. https://gbatemp.net/threads/i-heard-that-you-guys-need-some-sweet-patches-for-atmosphere.521164/

Download Fusse-Primary, boot with your payload injector. https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases/download/0.8.7/fusee-primary.bin

Done.

I've never used ReiNX so I'm not sure I can help any further. But I would agree with @blahblah, just use Atmosphere.

ReiNX =/= Atmosphere. They're completely different from each other. But they do share some same code of course. I never understood why that confusion is still around.

For me i only used ReiNX when my friend showe'd me what to do in the beginning. Then updated to 7.0.1 still using ReiNX as i did not know about atmosphere and everything ran fine with ReiNX. So i stayed with what worked good for me at the time.

I mostly tripleboot. But mostly use Atmosphere because of Kosmos.

Still true, spoken with the devs plenty of times. Right now it use Sept not to blow an exploit and some other bits. It's the beauty of Open-source

Again, look at the actual code. The differences from Atmosphere/Hekate are trivial. Do you really want to argue with SciresM?

I only say what Rei have. I know they use some parts of hekate and atmosphere. It doesn't make it an atmosphere cfw.
