Team Xecuter Announces android app: SX Tools

Team-Xecuter is yet again, expanding their SX Family line-up!
SXTools.jpg

Now adding a FREE app for Android owners to easy launch their SX OS, check out all the official PR details below:

Another day, another update. This time it is a neat little app for Android users.

If you want an easy way to use SX OS and have trouble understanding how to select the payload, then SX Tools is for you. No need to download the SX loader payload and manually select it from the app.

Quick instructions:
  1. Install the apk to an OTG capable android phone.
  2. Connect the Switch to the phone.
  3. On the first use, the app will ask for permission to "use USB device" when the Switch is connected. Check the "Use by default..." and press "OK"
  4. SX OS will boot now.
That's it. You don't even need to open the app to use it. Just install it and connect the Switch. Even when the phone is locked, it will work.

--< Team-Xecuter - Rocking the Switch in 2018 and beyond! >--

To download the new SX TOOLS app, please check out the official SX Family portal: --> https://sx.xecuter.com

I don't actually know if they did. There isn't a single mention of NXLOADER on their own website. Yeah it is on the GitHub but the GitHub doesn't have anything to do with the main page. They even call it their own official app on their own webpage so nope. There is zero credits given
damn, i tried to look quick, and didnt see it either

They're not hiding the fact that it's a fork of NXLoader, they even mention the creator and they're not selling the loader for profit - it's free. I don't really see a reason to be particularly upset, it's certainly less egregious than SX OS itself.

EDIT: Nevermind, retracting based on new evidence. :lol:

Where do they do that? I can't see a copy of the MIT license provided anywhere on their site.

> - Did you made tis?: Yes...No. DavidBuchanan314 made NXLoader, which SXTools was heavily based on, I mean even this read me file is only modified to satisfy SXTools. Most of the credits should go to him.

> - Help! I'm having _SUBMITURB Failed :(_ issue: Although your mobile phone do have OTG capability, it has an EHCI controller which, unfortunately, isn't supported. You could either find another phone with XHCI controller, or find a custom kernel for your phone which patches the controller. I would suggest the former.

Did you bother looking at the actual repository?

https://github.com/annson24/SXTools?files=1

The license file is right there and the original creator is mentioned in Readme.

So why not use nxloader... At least you can see nxloaders source code.

Wouldn't ever run, given TXs shady past with bricking code. My Android is more valuable to me than my switch.

Edit: source seemingly exists, but still don't really see the point.

That's pedantic.
Its legally required. Welcome to the law, it is pedantic

People here always complain, are you jealous because of TX success or what?
Instead of talking like retards, take this as an inspiration, maybe in the near future will use the same method to become rich.
