Hi,

Please help me, I really need help to figure out this. My switched used to be xs os and now it's on atmosphere. Lately, it always crashed after 1-2 hour in sleep mode whether it is docked or not. I replaced my sd card with the newer one, but doesn't seem to fix the issue.

Please help me how to fix this.

Thank you so much.

Are you running the latest Atmosphere/Hekate version?
Sometimes updating helps solving these kinds of issues.
There were some people experiencing the same problems when they updated with AIO instead of just manually.

Could be an issue with Atmosphere. Is your switch special in anyway? I remember an older version of Atmosphere used to crash if I dock my Switch but an update fixed it.

Atmosphere's current version is 1.2.6 + Horizon OS' latest version is 13.2.1.

Make sure you update to the latest version: https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases/latest

I would recommend to boot into OFW(Stock Firmware, no idea if I pronounced this correctly) and update HOS from there, this might disable Auto-RCM which you will need to manually renable.
yes, i am trying to see if I run this under OFW, will this crash. will it be safe if I update the firmware manually via OFW ?

Yes, but keep in mind this will disable Auto-RCM if enabled.
Heyyy I tried this, it works, not crashed at all during OFW. what should I do now? should I update that and then update atmosphere to the newest one, or do i update atmosphere first then the OFW?

First update OFW, then atmosphere and finally boot into CFW.
