Yes but you need a common.szs without this bug to use as a base, you can dump it from your nand or use one of the color only themes you can find online@exelix11 I haven't thoroughly read the guide yet, but I hope it's okay I just ask you directly.
I had someone on the Qcean Discord server make me a custom theme for my Switch, but it tends to crash when I boot into CFW. I've read the spoiler in the OP and I assume the crashes I experience are what you are reffering to. if so, is it correct to assume that I can just use version 2 of the injector on the custom common file to fix my theme or would I still have to go through the whole tutorial?

mount your system partition with hacdiskmount and look for a folder called 8684b0ddab1581d300a15ebc96c6bf2c (5.1.0 only iirc), inside of it there's a file called 00, it's an nca, use hactool to extract the romfs.Thanks. How would I go about dumping the common.szs file from my Switch? (Didn't see anything like take just quickly checking the guide in OP)

be careful with hacdiskmount cause you can brick or corrupt a nand backup if you edit stuff, iirc there should be a mount read only option.
I will write a proper guide one day.
my bad it's 5.1.0I've tinkered with Hacdiskmount before, wasn't thrilled about it, but used it to successfully mount my Switch partitions and upgrade my Switch Firmware. Should be doable if I HAVE to do it that way. I'm 5.1.0 though, is the folder you are talking about only named that in 5.0.1 or why'd you include that info?
File -> save as and from the format list select ddsSo I am in the middle of editing my custom image to get the file I need to inject into the common file. You mention exporting the image as a .dds file. How do I do this? Do I even have the option or do I need another version of Photoshop?

There are websites that can convert images for you like this oneAlready tried looking there and I don't have that option. Guess Photoshop needs updating...
Thanks, I'll figure something out
Someone added a bot that kicked everyone, now everything should be ok, i updated the invite link in the opWhat happened to the discord channel, did it get purged?
this should work https://discordapp.com/invite/Xmk496eIs there another Qcean discord invite link? The one in the OP just returns Expired or Invalid.
Here is a png you can use to make it yourself I can’t share the actual theme though, I’ve also fixed the colour and make the bar behind the icons more legibleThese are awesome! Can we get a thread of some of these custom backgrounds? (With credit, of course)
What firmware ? Only that xci ? have you tried an nsp version ? There is a similar issue with homebrew launcher on 4.0, unforunately i have no clue about what could be the culprit, the only thing i can think of are slow sd cards but doesn't seem a very convinging explaination2.0's injector definitely fixes the Switch boot crashing. But for some reason every time I launch [xci] Valkyria Chronicles 4 it crashes indefinitely while using a theme.
Plus its the only game that crashes with it. The game does launch without it, so I'm guessing layerdfs is the main culprit
