Does anyone have that strange SX os bug where it completely skips the options boot screen and goes strait to the SX os mode? Can’t figure out how to get the boot options mode (boot cfw, boot original fw, options)
Not a bug, that is intended use really.

To always get the options;
Hold Volume up (+) while transferring the payload or while attaching sx pro.

Where did you find a copy of yokus USA? Can you pm me pls
Im betting on a personal dump of it actually. That is currently the scene. A lot is possible that is NOT a scene release.
But I would like to know if others have looked into Yoku's Island Express. Besides LA Noire it is my only title not working. And I really wonder what makes that one 'special'.

I am wondering if 1-2 switch and the other Labo release isn't working because SX OS is not properly allowing access to the IR Camera. Since 1-2 switch eating game uses that and a few Labo creation uses the IR camera

After activating the license in their website and copying the license.dat file in the microSD root, the SX OS boots into OFW after injecting the payload.

If I hold vol+ while injecting the payload, the boot menu of SX OS appears, but when I select 'boot into CFW', it boots into OFW instead...

The difference with the first time I booted into CFW to retrieve the license-request.dat file is that I now have a bunch of games in the microSD root, might that be the problem?

Posting again to confirm - reboot_to_rcm for 1.0.0 switches does NOT work with SX OS. Used a wire to boot into RCM mode and everything is working correctly now.

Probably not too many people that benefit from this but wanted to update!
Very useful for me. Thanks mate.
Been banging my head against a brick wall for a few days wondering why I'm getting black screen on SX OS but other payloads run OK.

Well I did not really care for Nintendo Labo, not even with the new Mario Kart integration ... it's a hype I will not be following ;)

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------


Booted it up, still a level 1 here as I havent had time to really dive in with it.
Walked a bit around honningbrew meadery before getting arrowed to death.
So yes it runs fine on SX OS 1.2

I wonder what is the list of games that use infrared sensor, that's not supported currently in SX OS 1.2. For example LA Noire uses a tap to the sensor to reload a weapon. The Labo games won't even start supposedly because of this. Is this a coincidence that both games don't work?

Guys need help please..

I just purchase and installed the SX OS a few minutes ago and had it activated via offline getting the activation file from sx site.. I was able to load all my games and able to test a few BUT after my kids played 1-2 switch the game froze and the system will not boot back up anymore. I am concern the license key I got maybe used but I kinda trust the seller and did get it activated from the xecuters site so I am worried team xecuter team bricked my console  cause I saw post they have some sort of code if you do anything with license. I'm scared I was sold a second hand license any may have bricked my device hope not :(

Things I tried to make the system to turn on or even just to boot back up are

◘ Hold the power button for 15 seconds even to a minute with multiple attempts but nothing happened
◘ Tried to wait for a while in charging it still won’t turn on
◘ Tried to do RCM but tegra will not detect any RCM even had sure the jiggy clip is in
◘ Charge it for longer period still wont turn on
◘ And I am 100% sure I did not do AUTORCM on it

ANY TIPS WILL sure is appreciated guys just to get my switch to boot back up

Your SX pro is likely without a charge, Charge it using the provided USB cable for a minute or so to ensure it is charged. Then hold power for 15 seconds (if you had auto rcm, the switch will boot to rcm, and if there is no payload, it will blank screen. So once you hold the power button for 15 seconds, insert the dongle again. Then press the on Button. This should trigger the sx os boot menu.

If you actually didn't do Auto RCM, you would then have to remove the battery and connect it again. But try the first method afirst.

Im having a constant crash in lego worlds, seems to just randomly freeze with a buzzing sound.

Not sure if its because it needs an update, or its a bad dump?

sxos 1.2

What update version is onboard?
You’re the only one I’m seeing who has this cart so far.
Is there a good way to tell that? Because that is something I actually dont know how to check.

I skimmed through; https://gbatemp.net/threads/list-games-required-firmware-version.485959/ but didnt see that quick how to tell which fw is required.
So if you can tell me, I will surely look into that for you.

Hmm never had that happen with Odyssey.
I have only seen one corrupted message before and that happend to me with Street Fighter 30th Anniversarry.
Solution there was to check for the corruption, it gave me a dialog to do so, can't remember the exact phrasing though.
