Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Galvanize]

I got my RCMLoader today, and I just backed up the SysMMC,BOOT0/1 and Keys, what now?
Is it a good idea to have a separate SD Card to use with SysMMC and EmuMMC?
How much should I care about the eFuse thing? My current Switch FW is 10.2.0, If I update my System outside of SysMMC would that disable the EmuMMC?

I just got a an unpatched switch and have a question for cfw setup.
if i setup an EmuMMC, will it be a copy of my SysMMC including all the apps/savegames/settings on it?
Will my SysMMC be untouched by the setup process, so i can use it for online stuff?

Hey guys quick dumb question im sure.

I have my EMU switch on 9.01 with updated atmosphere, what route should i go to update to FW 11.01 so I can run the MH Rise Demo on it? Can I just update emunand via the system menu, or do I need to manually install the firmware via daybreak?

 

[Draxzelex]

One last thing.

When i did the step by step noob guide, it says i have launched atmosphere. But i didn't see atmosphere anywhere in the files. I downloaded all the files shown in the step by step. And injected hekate.

Tap ‘Launch > CFW (sysMMC)’

Hekate will now boot Atmosphere. Note that Atmosphere CFW

Am i missing something here?

Was there not a folder named atmosphere on your SD card?

Well with tinwoo I still can’t find way to install games over usb or usb HDD
Only over lan or internet which I don’t want and for some reason Luigi mansion won’t show up on my sd card is like hidden

Well it says it does support installing from an HDD so maybe the games you downloaded are no good.

Hi, I'm on fw 10 on both my ofw and emunand, using sxos. I'm planning to update my ofw to latest fw because I want to download and play monster hunter rise from eshop. The question is can I still boot to my emunand and play xci if I update my ofw to the latest fw? Thanks!

SX OS does not support the latest firmware meaning if you want to mount .XCI files on the latest firmware, that is currently impossible and we don't know when there will be an update if ever given TX's situation.

whats the best way to install nsp games and updates in atmosphere 17?
also is there a good way to transfer data using the switch as an ftp?

I recommend using TinWoo Installer. If you need to transfer data, try using Hekate's UMS instead. It moves files via USB.

The only reason to use a separate SD card for sysMMC and emuMMC is if you do not have space to put everything on one SD card. If you believe Nintendo is going to ban you because they check for CFW/homebrew files on your SD card, that is a huge misnomer with no basis in reality.

Fuses only matter to the end-user meaning they do not hold any intrinsic value at the moment. If you burn them, you will still be able to hack the console since the current exploit has nothing to do with them. But if a future exploit is released that requires a specific fuse count, then there is nothing you can do to remedy that situation. Therefore if possible, it is objectively better to avoid burning fuses.

emuMMC is initially a copy of your sysMMC. The setup process also does not have any effects on your sysMMC.

Either way is fine but if your emuMMC has any record of homebrew application usage or other hacks, then you risk getting banned updating it online. It might be better to just update it offline through Daybreak.

Is it a game you own? If not, do you have the appropriate patches to play backups?

 

[shinwg]

Draxzelex thanks it does support hdd but I guess not his own maybe I need NS loader setup. The games r good I find out it was the (‘) in the name was messing me up.

no its a game i downloaded... i ended up updating my firmware to 11.0.1, uninstall the game, install tinfoil then reinstalled the game using tinfoil and it solved it.

If switch from XS os to atmosphere new version is possible to switch to SX os again or is permanently once you switch. My switch is mariko patched

 

[kheldar]

CFW is never installed to the system. CFW are just files on your SD card that are read by whatever payload you use.

Hy there, i have a specific problem, i was on Firmware 10.1.0 Atmosphere (Emu) and decided to try out the latest Atmo with the latest firmware... and some sigpatches and it literally broke everything, i decided to delete the emulated nand and start again with 10.1.0 (Emu) but now no game i try will start and im kinda at my wits end (I assume it literally can only be cause im using the wrong sigpatches).

Edit: Nevermind i found the correct sigpatches i was looking for, now i will try again with the fw update on my emu nand.

Oh ok I wasn’t sure I read some where to install atmosphere on modded switch u need another software and it will make it permanent thanks for clear that up

You need a modchip like Trinket M0, along with autoboot to make closest thing to a cold boot.

Yeah my switch has mod chip I don’t know the name but is sxox chip and auto boot sxox too

One thing to note also is the new Atmos comes pre auto-enable all cheats, makes alot of games crash on boot.....u need to look in config templates folder, open system_settings.ini w notepad, change cheats to non auto-enable, then save file, then copy over to config folder on sd card, make sure to remove "," on every line to enable...pain to deal with but required...im sure theres tut on here but i cant link yet

I have a question regards changing from SX OS to Atmosphere if I may.

Im running SX OS on a OG console using a none SX dongle. I only have NSP’s and have never been online.

What I would like to know is if I follow the guide in this forum to change from SX to Atmos, do I need to wipe my SD card and start a fresh? How else does Atmos see the games otherwise if using the hidden partition in SX? Surely it’s not a simple case of adding the Atmos boot loader and deleting the SX one, is it??

Any help would be much appreciated.

Super noob needing help: haven’t been keeping my head in the game regarding CFW & updates so wonder if someone can give me a definitive here:

I have a (as far as I last checked) partially patched switch - what are the current hacks available, what it works with, what needs to be done etc?

 

[seany1990]

How do I know if im using sysnand or emumcc when booting fusee primary?

edit: figured it out

 

[JorgeSalgado]

Hello everybody!
This has possibly been asked before, but decided to do it anyway.
Can somebody explain me, as simply as possible, what is the physical difference between the V1 and the V2 Switch? Why is it so hard to hack? Just curiosity, nothing else.

Thank you in advance!
