Just downgraded and it works for me

Hmmm I see if versión skip is active there's no "nocntchk" patch.

All I have works but you can edit this line

{ "nocntchk", "0x081C00121F050071..0054", -4, 0, bl_cond, ret0_patch, ret0_applied, true, MAKEHOSVERSION(10,0,0), MAKEHOSVERSION(15,0,0) },

Change MAKEHOSVERSION(15,0,0) to MAKEHOSVERSION(18,0,0)

What does the nocntchk patch do?

switch-tools was updated in devkitpro, there is no need to do it manually

I didn't know how to make the latest version of switch-tools, but learned 1 hour ago, will test new build of sys-patch code and let you to know.

I used this commands to build the tools:

Bash:

cd ~
rm -rf switch-tools
git clone --recursive https://github.com/switchbrew/switch-tools
cd ~/switch-tools
./autogen.sh
autoreconf --install
mkdir build
cd build
../configure
make
cp *.exe /opt/devkitpro/tools/bin/

I ran the 1.5.3-dirty and the es7_fw18-19 is showing as unpatched in the log while I am on fw 18.1.0.
Edit: Everything seems to run fine except for tinfoil since I used the self installer. Fixed that by changing to forwarder.
So basicaly it shows unpatched for es7_fw18-19. Haven't tried with removing the ES patch file though.

Nope. Tesla menu is the initial overlay menu to be loaded by nx-ovlloader and nx-ovlloader is the post process for loading Switch overlay OVLs (NROs). As @duckbill007 mentioned, Tesla menu allows you to see your installed sys-modules, including sys-patch. Other than checking its logs, you can turn on or off some of sys-patch options as well.

Installation is simple: grab Tesla + nx-ovlloader and latest sys-patch, just make sure that you extract them to the right directories (to the root of your SD card). Once installed, reboot the system and after that if you you press L + D-pad Down + R (Stick) combo, Tesla menu should appear. There you can select sys-patch, followed by Log. If it says:

Patched = the pattern it's searching for is already patched by sigpatches, so there's no need to patch it again;

Patched = the pattern is patched by sys-patch (i.e. sigpatches are not present or haven't been applied on boot);

Unpatched = the pattern wasn't found by sys-patch on the current system so there's no need to patch them (only present if you turn off the Version skip in the Options).

For now Im not going to update emuMMC to 19.0, still in 18.1 but just to clarify: I have yellow patched in log of sys-patch

So my question is:
is it better to be green? (patched by sys-patch)
to get it green, may I have to delete the sigpatches folders in content folder?
Better stay as it works: "while it works better you don't touch"

Do not upgrade your FW unless is needed. lots of software will be need to rebuilt to work on the new FW.

New FW and new Atmosphere also, the forwarders and at least some modules doesn't work if just updating Atmosphere without update firmware to 19.0.0.

my question is about FW update, I have clear idea to stay in actual FW in CFW while it is stable and works. The question is in general, is it better be "yellow" or "green"? To be "green" may I have to delete the content folders of sigpatches?

Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: Check my previous post to see what each color means. Green and orange are both fine, red one's fine if intentional and If everything works,

alfonsovin said:

Yep. Once you remove sigpatches, sys-patch log should say Patched.

alfonsovin said:

Indeed. As long as there's no game or its update/DLC that requires higher firmware version, you don't really need to update. Who knows what may get broken in the process.

Read the post about the colors

There is no better, if is patched is patched, the colors only indicate in which step was patched.

I don´t know mine is 1.13.0-1

The problem is your repo is telling 1.12.0-1 is latest version, which devkitpro are you using?

Try running

pacman -Syuu

Switchbrew team got mad about me giving the instructions for build manually the repo. but well today you can install switch-tools 1.13.0-1 package which have the latest code.

Yes, that works.

Today the problem with this debug flag thing means my way or the high way to those who are not updating to atm1.8 cause if you build with the flag that works for atm1.8 it will either not work or crash on atm1.7 just like the older build will either crash or not work on atm1.8

Post automatically merged: Yesterday at 1:27 AM

@impeeza you may want to make a note telling people to use the old version for atm1.7 at your release page for sys-patch

There may be few but there will be some who come late and want to use sys-patch on atm1.7
