I have a freshly hacked Switch. I hacked it by following the instructions at nh-server.github.io/switch-guide .

I've got:
  • Hekate 5.2.1
  • Atmosphere 0.12.0
  • Awoo Installer 1.3.3
  • Goldleaf 0.8.0
  • OFW 10.0.3
I downloaded the Tinfoil 8.10 NSP, and tried to install it using both Awoo and Goldleaf. Both applications give me an error: Invalid NCA signature.

I've googled the error message and looked through a bunch of posts, but none of them seemed to hold the solution to the problem. Can anyone tell me what's wrong and what to do about it?

Where did you download it from? Try redownloading it and if it still fail then install it using the tinfoil NRO installer: https://tinfoil.media/repo/tinfoil.latest.zip

You nailed it, Lacius. After installing the signature patches, I stopped getting the error message about invalid NCA, and I was finally able to install Tinfoil!

Now the problem has changed; when I try to launch Tinfoil, I see a simple "Unable to start software" error message.

EDIT: It was my own fault, I was on SYS instead of EMU.
