Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

Trying to figure this out because I can’t test out stage builder on smash, this occurs when I launch it, today I did think it had to do with emuiibo because I just dragged that into my switch as card and I did get this error when selecting amiibo but the problem with that thought is it’s not the same title id that emuiibo uses. Not sure what this title id is for yet when searching. I believe this is the right amount of zeros.
title id 0100000000000004

Hello guys, recently I tried to hack my switch for first time (everything in 8.0.0) and I'm having issues with atmosphere 0.8.8

I downloaded everything from GitHub, used the fusee primary and installed successfully atmosphere, it even shows in the console version. But when I select the gallery menu, it shows normally. I tried holding R while selecting it because I saw some changes in the Homebrew launcher but it's still the same. Anyone has the same issue or knows how to fix it? (I'm using hblauncher 2.1 and hbmenu 3.0.1, the ones that comes in the .zip with atmosphere 0.8.8)

Just for the heck of it, I switched back to my 200gb sd card and now stage builder decided to load. I just got my 400gb recently and now I’m wondering if I added something extra in there, that causes smash to show an error for stage builder or the amiibo section.

Edit
Never mind, should have made sure everything was working before posting. My switch froze on that screen.

Has anyone been banned using Shofel2 on the switch (running Linux)? Or is it safe?

Hello,

I hacked my switch on 5.1.0 with ReiNX and I want to update to the latest firmware (CFW), how do I do this? Can I just update through Nintendo's server and then use RCM to apply new CFW? I can't find any information about this.

No, update offline with ChoiDujourNX.

Some games already require 7.0.1, that's why it's not useless to update. You can turn off autoRCM during the update process with ChoiDujourNX. Keep in mind that you shouldn't do that if you care about not burning fuses (One accidentally boot in OFW without custom payload will burn fuses of your switch up to 7.0.1). Also autoRCM only replaces the need of a jig but you still need to inject a payload somehow. Doesn't matter if its a computer, smartphone or dongle. There are already sigpatches out for 8.0.0 but why do you want to update there? Many homebrew applications are broken for now and no games require 8.0.0 yet.

I noticed the latest es patches for the latest version of Kosmos, v12.1, are only around 4KB zipped, and do not come with the FS patches (previous zips were around 12KB). Are they no longer needed in 12.1 or do I use the old patches and the new patches combined?

And since there is an issue running older games, can I just drag'n'drop the latest nightly commit of atmosphere into my Kosmos directory and have everything work? The only thing I didn't know where to put were the sysmodules, as Kosmos now uses nsp sysmodules and it seems atmosphere only provides .kip still? ::confused::

Do you have a second controller connected? I was wondering wtf when I couldn't get into the homebrew launcher from the joycons on my Switch yesterday to install something and it turns out it was because I already had my Pro Controller connected. So with it connected I could only get into the homebrew launcher by holding R and selecting the album on the Pro Controller. Later with the Pro Controller disconnected I could again use the joycons to get into the homebrew menu.

Can any CFW bypass the cart slot firmware restriction?
For example, a <3.0.0 CFW using a >4.0.0 slot.

Use SX OS Emunand if you want to stay on lower firmware and emulate another nand that you can update the firmware.

I see, thanks.
I kinda wanted to use my (unpatched) Switch normally but still preserve stuff that wouldn't completely cut me off from most mods it in the long distant future.

I don't think that it is the problem, I only use my joycons :/

EDIT: Ok, I reinstalled atmosphere with my right joycon attached to the switch and now it works somehow, but when I turn off the switch, atmosphere dissapear. What is going on?

Can I dump my keys at any moment or do I need in the same firmware as the nand backup?

I mean I have a 4.1 nand backup and no burn fuses, can I get my keys from CFW 6.2, where I currently stand, or are different?

You can get your key anytime you want as long you can boot into Lockpick_RCM, it generate keys up to the firmware you are on, if you want masterkey 7 you can either look for it online or update your firmware via choidujourNX, then run lockpick_rcm.

Hello, guys.

I'm getting my first Switch. I only intend to play original games and installing retroarch/emulator and nothing more hacking than this.
I have read the "Ultimate Noob Guide for Hacking your Nintendo Switch" and I want to know how I can make the minimal hacking and how easily this will make me get a ban

Thanks in advance.

I know that going online with a hacked switch is a massive no no. But are they perfectly fine for system to system link play? Will they play fine with each other? And will a modded switch play local wireless play perfectly fine with a normal non hacked switch?

Install Atmosphere: https://guide.sdsetup.com. If you use your switch online, you will be very likely banned.
