    Hacking Atmosphere-NX - Custom Firmware in development by SciresM

    that's a misunderstanding. the overlay loader gimmick-thing (not sys-patch) consumes a lot of memory as example, and people insist on using it. basically the only thing hindered by future throttling of memory, is only people who bloat up their console with custom sysmodules (in theory you...

    Tutorial Hacking Homebrew How to create your own sigpatches.

    Your 4 year old version of atmosphere doesn't serve much purpose as atmosphere is backwards compatible. bare minimum upgrade to atmoshere 1.9.5 (not later), and sys-patch 1.5.6 (not later) as that one is compatible with atmosphere 1.9.5 your firmware version also cant be greater than 13.2.1 due...

    Hacking Sigpatches for Atmosphere (Hekate, fss0, fusee & package3)

    why are you posting this in this thread? your issue isn't with patches, go talk to developer of the homebrew you are using

    Homebrew Homebrew app sys-patch - sysmod that patches on boot

    chatgpt forgot to tell you that if you boot without patches, that you have to reinstall the affected titles. as for the unpatched thing, if ES/Loader/FS says patched that's fine. if they say unpatched then its likely you're using something else that provides the patches.

    Hacking Speculations about Switch 2 hacking

    It's not that "no one has found anything". Why reveal anything before the console has reached end of life? I've found several fun things over the years, it's just that sharing it would technically infringe on certain parts of the DMCA, and also be counter-intuitive as there already are means to...

    Hacking Speculations about Switch 2 hacking

    there's been several viable methods / attack vectors, it's just there isn't much to gain presenting a method to the public using them, due to the reasons i already mentioned (rp2040/rcm bug) for the switch 1 ecosystem. but up until 21.0.0 (i.e. 20.5.0 highest) there was a reasonable vector to...

    Hacking Speculations about Switch 2 hacking

    it's not impossible. It's just no one has bothered implementing it again (there is a public method working up to 4.1.0) already that is softmod, without RCM or modchip required) and that one theoretically was functional up to 8.1.0, no one bothered implementing it, and recently i believe up...

    Hacking Atmosphere-NX - Custom Firmware in development by SciresM

    i removed and re-inserted micro sdcards into my 2018 model switch without it ever breaking. probably up to 1000+ times, during testing and development of various things. i would argue it's not a factual statement.

    Hacking Sigpatches for Atmosphere (Hekate, fss0, fusee & package3)

    your error tells me nothing as you aren't providing which program is crashing (program/title ID) you also provide zero examples of which games you most likely need an account linked, so look up linkalho

    Hacking Sigpatches for Atmosphere (Hekate, fss0, fusee & package3)

    There are a lot of "dlc unlockers", which are not signature intact - faked - not paid for, which are distributed in .nsp format, which work when installers don't tantrum about them, but they aren't the same as a real dump that was paid for. it might be the dlc you speak of is one of the bootleg...

    Hacking Sigpatches for Atmosphere (Hekate, fss0, fusee & package3)

    sd cards have a finite lifespan. (hint, hint - get a new one -> not exfat formatted as well) totk should work fine on 19.0.1, and you're not on 19.0.0 which has soc voltage issues, so yeah narrowed down it should be the sd card having corrupted itself. don't use that. use something like...

    Hacking RELEASE Lockpick_RCM payload - Official Thread

    if i get a confirmation that this works, i will be refactoring lockpick's key derivation process but the tl:dr is lockpick (currently, wont after refactor) gets the tsec root key from the keyslot after running the atmosphere tsec keygen payload, and uses that root key (tsec_root_key_02) with...

    Hacking RELEASE Lockpick_RCM payload - Official Thread

    i have zero intention of maintaining lockpick, the intention behind the commit/work done so far is to produce a version which no longer needs to be manually updated. i will be sending a PR upstream to thzoria master and a duplicate PR to lockpick PRO after someone has tested and verified if it...

    Hacking RELEASE Lockpick_RCM payload - Official Thread

    I've decided to see if I cannot add a new key derivation path similar to my other projects into lockpick_rcm; what this does differently compared to what lockpick_rcm did before, is it reads and decrypts the nca headers, identifies system update and the fat32 filesystem nca; then checks the key...
