    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Hi, I've been away from the scene lately, but I'm now going to get more involved with my Switch. I need a bit of help in getting up and running again. I have a v1 Switch with Atmosphere installed. However it was last updated about 3 years ago so one of the first things I think I need to do is to...

    Hacking Save files lost after ARM11 crash

    Hi thanks for your help. I think something must have happened to my SD card, perhaps when I got the ARM11 error. Using your instructions I was able to go back to by 2019 backup and restore the save files from there. Unfortunately the save files in the 2021 backup seem to be useless. I have...

    Hacking Save files lost after ARM11 crash

    Hi, I stupidly updated the firmware of my Old N3DS XL last night and then it crashed on re boot with an ARM11 error. Looking through the forum this morning I figured that the problem was that I had an out of date Luma3DS file (last updated 2 years ago). So I downloaded the latest version of...

    Hacking What is Haxchi or CBHC? FAQs and info

    Yes, that has always confused me to be honest. It seemed to work that way when I originally installed it: as soon as the WiiU was powered on, it would go into the CHBC autobooting menu. But after a while I must have done something and it stopped doing that. Maybe it was choosing a game for...

    Hacking What is Haxchi or CBHC? FAQs and info

    Hi, That did the trick. Also, worth noting that I had to press the Home button exactly when the CHBC info appeared - if I pressed it before, it didn't recognise it. As the CHBC info is only on the screen for a couple of seconds you really have to jump on it :) I have no idea why I had an SD...

    Hacking What is Haxchi or CBHC? FAQs and info

    Hi, I do have an SD card instered and it does have the right files in it... but now that I remember, does it need to be formatted FAT32? I'll do that next as my card was NTFS formatted. Holding home didn't do anything (but maybe it's because of the card formatting issue). I'll look into...

    Hacking What is Haxchi or CBHC? FAQs and info

    Hi there, I installed CBHC about 3 or 4 years ago. I can't remember how to get back into the Homebrew channel to install new games. The WiiU basically just launches into CFW automatically or, from time to time, I just click on the HAXCHI icon on the gamepad (or alternatively the DS VC game that...

    Hacking Question Some games don't work after upgrade CFW

    Once after upgrading I noticed my NSPs that I had created from XCIs didn't work any more. I think I need to re-extract the keys and regenerate the NSP from the original XCI. Maybe that'll help.

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    If it helps, I tried to do this last week and I had some hiccups but I (mostly) got there in the end. I summarised what I did here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/firmware-upgrade-problem-emummc-is-forced-but-not-enabled.567385/ I say that I "mostly" got there in the end because over the last...

    Hacking Question emuMMC is forced but not enabled | Update Kosmos 16.1

    I'm sorry to say I don't know much more than what I posted; it was a bit of trial and error for me as I'm not a real expert on these things. In fact I have just realised that some of my games do not work (but oddly, most do) after I upgraded. I've summed up my misadventures in this post in case...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Many thanks, I will update the button configurations so they're back to what I'm used to. I'm now successfully on FW 10.0.4|AMS 0.12.01S. However I am still struggling to run the games so I would appreciate some advice on how I can get unstuck. I've posted the question in what I think is the...

    Hacking Guide to choose which Atmosphère patches to use on Switch FW 10+

    Hi, Can I please ask for advice on how to update the sigpatches? After @Lacius kindly got me unstuck managed to upgrade to 10.0.4 (in emuMMC) using ChoiDujourNX. It seems to have worked fine (at least the current system version is 10.0.4|AMS 0.12.01S). So I've managed to upgrade both the FW...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Hi, I'm having trouble starting the Homebrew launcher after updating Atmosphere. I select the photo album while holding R and it does not go into Homebrew, rather it gives me some tips on how to take photos and whatnot. Likewise when I try to access Homebrew by opening a game and pressing R...

    Hacking Question emuMMC is forced but not enabled | Update Kosmos 16.1

    Hi, I'm encountering a similar error as you. Can you please clarify for me how you set emummcforce=0? Whereabouts can you change that setting? Thanks. Edit: I figured it out with a bit of googling - just writing it down here in case it helps someone else. I made the change manually in the...
