Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[chezyo]

Hi, I´ve got a problem after updating Atmosphere with the All-in-one Updater.
Maybe someone could please help me, don´t know how I could fix it.
Got the latest atmosphere version from the all-in-one-updater on 13.1 fw (not using emunand).
after the update he asked me to also update hekate to 5.6.2. everything fine so far, then the question came: "should hekate payload /bootloader/update.bin being copied to /atmosphere/reboot_payload.bin" ? I wasn´t sure what to do and accepted.
Now I can boot into hekate perfectly and also start the cfw but after any click on anything the switch is getting extremely slow, takes about one minute to react after pushing a button. there are no slowdowns booting into the ofw. copied the update.bin on the sd card from a backup without any change.. everything is freezing for minutes.
is there anything i could try to fix without starting from scratch ? thanks for any help.

can't you push the payload from your phone

only have an iPhone
is that possible?

Check this out. I believe you need to be jailbroken. I'm not on any iOS device so don't know much about this but yes, there definitely is a payload injector for the iPhone

The local wireless is an ad-hoc network with a non-standard handshake and it uses a pre-shared key. Has anyone managed to derive this key and decrypt communication between two devices?

Well you can't use shops with TinWoo so you can keep it around just in case.

Well, Tinwoo worked flawlessly (in combination with NS-USBloader). Consider me converted
I saw that Tinwoo also had the option to update the sigpatches for me. Can I trust it and stop doing these updates manually?

I'm not sure, but for what purpose would you do that? There already is LAN play which transfers the ad-hoc to Wi-Fi/LAN so you can play online while the Switch thinks it's local.

If i want to install Android 10 on Switch and i already have Atmosphere installed, do i have to backup everything before installing it?

I'm trying to convert my sysnand to emunand so I can go online without getting banned, but when I try booting into hekate, I get an error message saying to update my bootloader folder. I had it working perfectly before I partitioned my sd card. What am I doing wrong?

 

[3DSBricker]

Try to download the latest version of Hekate. You have an old version of Hekate and the bootloader version may not match so update both.

It didn't work, I'm still getting the same error. Do I maybe not have some files in the right directory?

AFAIK, for games that only have local wireless available, you have to mod your Switch to use LAN play, which some people may not want to do.

Could be. Why do you have 2 different partitions with files for it? Are you sure the bootloader folder is on the right partition?

You don't necessarily need CFW for LAN play. It can work with a custom DNS or gateway too, you need a program running on your computer. On there you also set the server you want it to connect to.

I have two partitions because im trying to setup an emunand so I can still go on the eshop and stuff without getting banned. I'm just not sure which partition this stuff goes in.

You shouldn't be able to see the EmuNAND. It's a hidden partition. I noticed the folder Android, is that because you also (want to) run Android on your Switch? Or did Android make that folder?
You need to make one big partition in FAT32 and then use Hekate to make an EmuNAND as partition. The SD card will be formatted again so only place Hekate on it.

But that only works if the game has support for LAN play right? Not local wireless exclusive titles like Monster Hunter and many others.

I was trying to set up an injector on my phone. As for emunand, I set up the emunand through hekate, which made a partition on my sd card. Isnt that the whole point of emunand? to create a duplicate OS? I'm sorry, I'm just really confused.

Well you're connecting to that server if it's LAN play in the game and if it's local play too. To redirect ad-hoc you do need the ldn_mitm.kip file, which can only be used with CFW.

Yes but the point is also that it's hidden. You shouldn't have 2 visible partitions. Just 1 FAT32 and one, according to Windows, unallocated; which should be about 29GB unless you resized it.

So Should I just format my sd card and start the process over from scratch?
