Hacking Question No HBmenu with ReiNX 8.0.1

[karYzan]

Hey guys.
In system it says im running 8.0.1 ReiNX but I can't get the homebrew to start in anyway.
The album just starts normally.

Hold r when you tap album

does not work on ReiNX apparently

Holding R when entering Album should work. Make sure you have every file, including homebrewmenu.nro or something along those lines, i don't know the exact name of the file

The 2.2.1 from the ReiNX Guide should include all files. I've gone trough them but cant seem to find anything missing.
It worked fine with atmosphere one hour ago. But can't get it working with ReiNX

You should follow the guide properly.

same thing happened with me didnt know why, reverted back to kosmos

Are you sure you downloaded all the needed files, and put them in their respective places?
Get this file and extract the contents of the 'sd' folder to the root of the SD card. Let me know if you still need help

you might be missing the hbl.nsp file.

Homebrew Menu (hbmenu) isn't loading when I open Album
In order for the Album to load the Homebrew Menu, it requires the following:

hbmenu.nro must be in your root directory of your SD card.
hbl.nsp must be in the ReiNX folder.
Alternatively for legacy format Homebrew Loader (hbloader) users, 010000000000100D folder needs to be in the ReiNX/titles/ folder.
Assuming both files are present in the correct locations, the Album will successfully launch the Homebrew Menu.

If the Homebrew Menu still does not load, it may mean your SD card is formatted as exFAT however the Switch does not have the exFAT update.

If this is the case you can do one of the following:

Recommended: Format SD card as FAT32, replace files and try again.
Install the exFAT system update on your Switch.

Seems lke it.
I had the same issue with atmosphere a couple of months ago.

I am 100% sure all files were there. I did use the pack used in the guide and the hbl was there. But I will try the guide posted by proffk

I'm pretty sure it can be the that the sdcard is exfat formatted. I updated to 8.0.1 becuase my switch wouldn't read the exfat card. The whole point with running reiNX is to be able to play xci files but I don't really know how to get it working at this moment

ReiNX can't play .XCI files, only SX OS can. You can use ZeroTwoXCI to install the XCI like an NSP file though.

Reinx doesn’t read xci files you gotta convert them

ZeroTwoXCI gave me error in atmosphere. Haven't had chance to try on ReiNX. If I restore my nand backup will it go back to previous firmware? When I was on 7.0.0 it said I had to update for the device to read exfat sdcard. It was the reason for the update.

thanks bro. I hope I get it working

The exFat is a separate update, regardless of firmware version. My Switch is still on 5.0.2 and reads exFat just fine.

Haha I fucked Up. I bought a second hand switch and I didn't have patience to read up on everything. But if I restore my nand backup will it go back to the firmware I backed up on?

don't use ZeroTwoXCI, use 4NXCI to convert the .XCI into a ,NSP then install the resulting NSP, much easier and almost no chance of issues happening

Thanks will definitely try it out

Hey. Where do I find this update? I'm going to restore my NAND now and do that update alone.
