Hacking Discussion SX Core Mariko list of non-compatible tools

[NazD]

Ok so Hekate 5.3.2 works through the SX 3.0.3 payload menu to boot into Android / Ubuntu on
SX Core on Mariko units.

shows this in action.

@satanicangel - maybe you can put a note about this in the OP?

wtf how, all I get is a black screen when launching hekate

Are you fully updated? SX chip firmware, SXOS, and Hekate?

 

[NazD]

Are you fully updated? SX chip firmware, SXOS, and Hekate?

Yes, my SXOS is version 3.04 and I just redownloaded the latest version of hekate. the SX Core version is 1.3

To be fair, this is the first I'm hearing that this can work. It's from a user on Reddit. I was surprised to hear that he got it working as well - I was under the impression that it wasn't possible because of the info from the OP in this thread.

No, it's fake or it's not mariko. Maybe it's erista console.

Erista is the V1 switch console? According to this person it's a Mariko unit with SX Core.

Edit: Sorry, I thought they said it was Mariko. It's not apparently? I'm not sure.

Yes it will be V1 console. Switchroot and NYX can't work on mariko now.

It's not a Mariko. Mariko can't run current Switch Android/Linux builds, the hardware is too different

shouldnt be that different its basically the exact same hardware on a smaller die, if linux didnt have base support for the exact same chipset but with a higher potential peak clock I would be surprised.

its probably just payloads o being updated like everything else.


also im curious if Reverse NX works on the Lite

ReverseNX works on Lite. My friend confirmed it.

Didn't say adding support would be super difficult, just that current builds won't work. Also it's a bit more than just a die shrink
L4T does support t210b01 but we don't have fully working device trees, configs and all that shit for Iowa/Hoag yet, coreboot (or hekatf now ig) will need some changes too iirc.

The user never specified if it was a Mariko unit but in the video he does say "Not everyone wants to go and hunt down a V1 switch" which leads me to believe that it is a V2.

its not a mariko, only time i have seen hekate work on sx core is when i launched it on an erista

Could've confused Mariko with Erista with the fusee patch. I see it happen all the time.

So to be clear there are:

• V1
• V1 patched aka Erista
• V2 aka Mariko
• Lite

All V1s are Erista.

Unpatched
Ipatched
V2(Mariko, red box)
Lite

I think this classification is better.

I think you used tinfoil bundled incognito (not incognito.nro), and If you don't have nand backup or biskeys dump, no way to unbrick it for now.

I have a modded switch since few days, still have to learn everything that can be done and how.
The incognito I've used was the github, /blawar/incognito/releases

 

[alucard_xs]

Hello

IS choixdujour compatible to update emunand on a Switch lite with SX lite installed now ?

 

[LapCheong]

I wonder should i sell off my V1 switch and V2 instead? Due to the better battery and thermal, i prefer the look of the mariko screen as well
