There some stuff atmosphere don’t use any more what’s the best configuration for mariko
hekate.ini and atmosphere system.ini and other ini i don’t remember thanks in advance. I just updated to the latest version of atmosphere and hekate now switch won’t boot up it give black screen

The BEST will be the one that works for what you want to do. If you define everything you want to do we can come up with a best config for you. If it‘s just generically to play game backups then it’s best to start with a basic guide and add more as your needs mature. Here’s one to get you started: https://rentry.org/SwitchHackingIsEasy

as for blanks screen after update them most common one is having not updated your fusee.bin (see guide link above for details.)

You need to restore a modded save on to your unit that is on CFW.

Refer to the LED pattern.

Thanks for reply. I'm aware of patterns, my light indicates that training is taking place. It says it might take up to 15 minutes but it doesn't finish even when left for 30+ minutes.

If its just corruption, formatting the SD card is all you need to do. If the SD card is dying, then you need a new card. You'll know its dead if its still not working after formatting the SD card. If the partition is corrupted, then hope you have a backup of it somewhere because there's no recovery from that. The telltale sign is if you can't boot CFW on emuMMC but you can boot CFW on sysMMC. Also, if your SD card got corrupted, format it to FAT32 ASAP.

Yo uhm made the discovery myself yesterday aswell, you better backup your savegames ASAP, get a new SD also ASAP and until then don't try to write anything onto the card, play with what's installed already. Trust me, you really don't wanna have it not work completely anymore out of the sudden.


EDIT: long story of mine:
I experienced very low installation speeds with any installer, also often the connection times out or as DBI calls it "the buffer was exceeded", whereas other people I asked got around 20mb/s installation speed. Booting AMS and games worked fine/didn't take ages, transfering files on PC also didn't get noticeably worse so i didn't think of corruption per se.

Still it wouldn't stop bothering me so I tried on another (smaller) SD card which I luckily had available again and turns out I got the normal installation speed on that SD card.

But as I said, using the console still works, therefore I keep playing games currently without issues aswell, I just avoid writing onto the card (aside from saving in games) and also directly backup and copy the savegame to my PC when I am done with playing.

So if my story is similar to yours, you should really get a new one ASAP.

Depends on what you got, your options are unpatched unit, patched unit 4.1.0 and below, or patched/mariko/aula unit with modchip.

Thanks a lot guys. Bruh, half a year and 1TB card goes to waste, what a load of crap....
Okay, what to avoid with new card and any recommendations which one should i get?

That site is not 100% reliable. Use this thread for the most accurate method to determine if your Switch is patched or not.

Just use common sense. If its too good to be true, then it usually is. You can never tell the quality of legitimacy of an SD card before buying so make sure you check multiple places prior to making a purchase.

Problem is, i bought it from the same place i usually get my cards ( like one for my phone and other devices) and from the same brand ( which is SanDisk Pro Line).

So yeah, that's why i'm asking if i should be looking for anything specific.
I don't have enough cash to throw out brand new SD card after half a year of use . Especially 1TB one

Good idea to backup the contents on the card and test the card empty that would tell you if the card is legit or not, if you did tested it before you can format it to FAT32 as suggested.
