Hi,

Can someone help me please? These last few days after I played switch (Atmosphere) and let it sleep like usual, whenever I want to play again the next day suddenly turns into a black screen. I have to force shutdown by holding power for 15 sec and turn it on with a jig again to load it to the atmosphere. Can someone please help me why this is happening? and How do I fix this?

Thank you so muchhhh.

According to this thread this worked:

I ended up solving the problem by doing the following:

  • I placed the hekate_ctcaer_x.x.x.bin file in the root of my SD card and changed its name to payload.bin
  • Then, I placed the fusee.bin file, from Atmosphere, in /bootloader/payloads/
I put the card back into my switch, it loaded into hekate menu > Selected Payloads and chose fusee.bin

No more issues with the screen turning bright when I put the Switch to sleep anymore. Great Success!


*note: I modernized the instructions…see original thread for actual quote.

sorry a noob questions, should i update the hekate/atmosphere? or just let it stay on that version & update when it needed?

if all else fails upgrade. That said, I personally like to know what went wrong and always try to get back to a good state. It was working before sooooo….

try the first thing I posted and see if it helps…quick and easy to try. If that doesn’t work…upgrade.

Hi, I'm trying to figure out which one is fusee.bin file?
Is it reboot_payload.bin inside the atmosphere?

thank you

oh no... it's happening again...
i did removed hekate_ctcaer_x.x.x.bin file in the root of my SD card and changed its name to payload.bin
I can't find fusee.bin file from atmosphere. I found it already inside the bootloader.
So I did not do anything else.

did i make a mistake on this?

please help me T_T

You need to download fusee.bin from the atmosphere release page. It’s one of the assets.

https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases

is this mean im upgrading the atmosphere?
if i download this fusee.bin i will put this into boatloader/payload right? to replace the old fusee bin?

Thank you.

Scroll down and use the same version you used before.

if we’re still stuck after that…then yes, let’s do an upgrade.
