Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Lynn:-)]

Well you can't boot OFW with AutoRCM so you would have to disable it.

It still doesn't hurt to try. And there is currently no way to "disable" sleep mode as it is an extremely useful feature without an untethered coldboot exploit.

Have you tried using ReiNX?

Just use the newest CFW files.

I don't use ReiNX. However someone has said I need to change my sd card from exfat to Fat32. Do you know if there is a video or a wiki as to how to do that? I am totally stuck atm

First backup your files by putting in your pc before you format. It will wipe all folders and etc. on your SD card to format. http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm
Click on the picture to download the formatter to change exfat to Fat32

this is the issue I am having. I can't use the dump any more as when I update it gives corrupt data message

So I got my switch semi fixed after updating ofw and cfw. Before I was using fusee primary but now I'm having to use hekate booting.

Like half my games are now not loading. Most the ones having issues are ones I dumped myself early on from carts. Am I missing sig patches or something? Running atm 13 and 10.04.

The games that won't load do a corrupt check and then say redownload.
Also Yu-Gi-Oh game corrupted so uninstalled then tried to reinstall with awoo but it errored out and keeps failing near the beginning of install.

Use the patches from this thread

I am using Hekate and Atmosphere. I had no issues playing games I had already installed on my Switch prior to hacking it. I recently purchased Dragon Quest XI after loading into my switch without loading cfw. It is installed and plays normally this way. However, it does not show up in the games list when I load into cfw. What causes this? What can I do to fix it?

Did you setup emuMMC?

i have a prob.....my left joycon has the drift issue....but it has a custom shell....so what can i do else other than to send it in? because i dont think they repair it

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

another question is how can i remove my signature from my profile?

You have to send it in either to Nintendo or a local repair shop. And your signature is located under the "Account Settings & Privacy" section when you hover over your profile picture.

On the latest atmos, how do you change the album + hotkey behaviour?

You change it via the override_config.ini file.

Ok, so I have the opportunity to buy a used Switch for cheap that is unpatched and able to use CFW on. I have a few questions:

Goal: To be able to gen pokemon on the cfw switch and send over to my main switch account.

What will I need to do in regards to: Do I need a second Nintendo account for the CFW Switch? How about a 2nd Nintendo Online account? I'm assuming I'll need a 2nd copy of the pokemon game as well since I only have the digital version on my main switch.

As far as buying a used Switch: Will I be able to safely do a factory reset and still be able to exploit the Switch? Or should I just keep whatever profiles etc that are on it? Is there anything I should be aware of before attempting CFW? Will I be able to go online for pokemon raid dens etc with a CFW Switch, or will that switch need to be offline all together.



Thank you for any direction you can point me in ahead of time. ATM I have a CFW 3ds that I use to do pkhex genning with for Gen 7s and I just push them into Pokemon Home and then to my SW/SH game.

You don't need a second Nintendo Account but a second copy of the game will ensure you have a safe way of transferring over genned Pokemon. And while you don't need to do anything to the Switch in order to hack it, as long as the hardware is vulnerable, going online will be a ban risk.

Right now I'm using ReiNX v3.0 on firmware 10.0.4 (updated using ChoiDujourNX)

Since I've hacked my switch I have never had it online. No network connection and always on airplane mode. I really want to have online access tho. I plan to set up incognito mode and maybe 90dns as well. I don't really want to install incognito on my sysnand. I've been trying to figure out how to set up a emuNAND and I found a good tutorial how to set it up. They show from a fresh switch tho.

To setup emuNAND and be able to switch back and forth between OFW and cfw do I need to restore my original fresh NAND backup first then follow the setup steps?

From what I understand it makes a copy of your current NAND so I'm guessing I do or else I will get banned since I've used homebrew and roms, but I wanted to make sure first.

2 days ago i installed the Sx core and i got green light and the boot dat on screen.
But i still i fear something is wrong.
Is the switch "normal"Os not supposed to be able to boot.I say this because i read
somewhere that before you install the license to the switch you need to go into
airplane mode and disable internet connection.
Im not able to do any of this since i got a black screen and not able to boot.
not even able to get a charge battery indication.
Atm im not able to do anything since i have destroied the sd card reader.
ordered a new one.But i just need to know if i should go on with the Core
install or if there is something wrong and just remove the Core.
I also read in Sx Core manual that if you got green light and it boots to the bootloader
but switch Os wont boot,it could have something to do with a solder in SP1.
Can you help me out. So is the switch Os not able to boot when the Sx core is soldered
to the motherboard.

Is it different from just downloading "2.0.0-10.0.4_for_AMS_0.13_and_0.12_and_0.11.1" sig patch and dragging it into the Atmpshere folder? my other game is working fine, just not ANimal crossing

Can i update my sysnand the official way while auto rcm is on??

 

[NoAds]

Just update with CFW with ChoiDujourNX so you don't burn fuses

 

[Lacius]

Can i update my sysnand the official way while auto rcm is on??

Yes, but updating normally will remove AutoRCM. If you want to update while keeping AutoRCM, assuming you are using your clean sysNAND for online play, you will need to boot into Atmosphere on your clean sysNAND to update and keep AutoRCM.

If the sysNAND is not clean and you're not using it for online play, you can update using ChoiDujourNX.

Just update with CFW with ChoiDujourNX so you don't burn fuses

That's a great way to potentially get banned, if the sysNAND is being using for online play.

Different bootloaders require different patches.

Can I play online with the CFW now? I was holding to buy a switch until it was completely open to homebrew (the same I did with Wii U) and now it seems a good time.

Yes, but you will need to use a clean sysNAND for online play and a dirty emuNAND for offline hackery.

I cleaned my switch using haku33 and deleted everything on it then i made a clean backup..as you said i want to play online on a clean sysnand and cfw things on emunand im currently on horizon os 9.2.0 with 6/7 burnt fuses i already have a full dirty backup from 5.2.0

Is fuses rematter that much to save??so its not any problem if i update my clean sysnand the official way while auto rcm is on??

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

So i can boot atmosphere on my clean sysnand and update via console settings while auto rcm is on and no burnt fuses???

 

[vendettared]

Is stealth mode on SXOS sufficient to prevent accessing Nintendo servers (thus preventing a ban) in order to use homebrew (specifically, moonlight) that requires wifi?

 

[Lacius]

That is correct. Other than when you're updating your sysNAND, you should not use Atmosphere with your "clean" sysNAND.

Fuses only matter if you want to be able to use future exploits someday, and you want to be able to downgrade in order to use the aforementioned future exploits. Depending on your system version, there might be little to no chance of a future exploit for your system.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Yes, but you should keep your sysNAND clean if you're going to be using it for online play. That means you always use Stealth Mode, 90DNS, Incognito, etc. with your dirty NAND.

 

[vendettared]

@Lacius , am I correct to assume that using both 90dns and incognito would be redundant since they both prevent acess to Nintendo servers, essentially performing the same function? Thus, I wont need 90dns anymore?

Moreover, if I use incognito, can I still play games online with sysnand? Or do I have to restore the prod.info each time I want to go online on synand?
