ReiNX 2.1 released

reinx.png

@Reisyukaku and @EliseZeroTwo's Switch custom firmware just received an update, bringing the version counter up to 2.1! The project had already added 7.0.x compatibility in an earlier unstable build, however this is the first stable release to include it. Unlike the early build, sleep mode has also been fixed and now works fine. Other changes and improvements include JIT patches and support for exosphere/lp0fw.

The full official changelog is as follows:
  • 7.0.x support
  • JIT patches
  • support for exo/lp0fw
  • Stability™

If you are running the older unstable version, it's highly recommended you update to this newer stable release as soon as possible. As usual, a download link is available in the source down below.

Just tried to update (still on 6 2) and i get a black screen... doesn't even get to the splash...

Do i need to update to 7.0?

Would custom themes have anything to do with reinx 2.1 not booting?

-> Kosmos.
ReiNX is 80% Ctrl+C + Ctrl+V of atmos. With all possible extra oversights/bugs that come with it. I don't really understand people using it while there are no extra features as of yet.
That is incorrect and disproven. Do please check the source code if you don't believe me.

Also, it's the beauty of opensource to share code! :D

In that case, I stand corrected. This was something I picked up over discord.
Yeah it's a common misconception. Rei in agreement with SciresM for example use the Sept to NOT burn an exploit.
But sure, some things they share code on since well... they work with the same methods on booting for example.

Installed KOSMOS on my new Switch that I bought just when the 7.0 support in KOSMOS was released (good timing XD). Even though I'm a noob and I'm glad that everything works fine and stable for a few weeks now (just playing games though) I might give ReiNX a shot now. Few questions:

1. Do I have to delete/format my micro SD card with KOSMOS on it? Or can I just test ReiNX while keeping KOSMOS to see which one I like more?
2. Do I have to delete my installed NSPs now and re-install it under ReiNX?
3. Currently I use tinfoil 0.21 + Fluffy on my PC to install my NSPs via network... Does this work under ReiNX?
4. I keep my Switch in sleep mode permanently instead of shutting it off after every session/day... I heard ReiNX causes some problems with sleep mode, is that true?
5. Any other things I need to know? Any warnings/dangers a noob like me (haven't looked into the Switch homebrew scene yet due to limited free time outside of work) has to know?

Hi, I have a problem ... I have the version of the switch at 7.0.1 (currently present before putting reinx 2.1). I updated reinitialize the payload with the black dongle (in the root of the file I renamed the file reinx bin). What could it be? I tried to put the files back several times without success.
Thanks in advance and sorry English, but I'm using the Google translator.

1) no, you just need to make a backup of the payload.bin in the sept folder as reinx replaces this
2) No, you can keep them
3) Yes USB install works on ReiNX
4) This was true with the 7.x beta that was released last week. ReiNX 2.1 Stable fixes this issue
5) Make a nand + boot0/1 backup if you haven't already

I also used a dongle for it. Specifically, the NS Atmosphere dongle.

I think I missed that part. Even then, I do not know where in the micro-SD Card is the config for it.

I thought you were booting from pc not dongle

It gets stuck at the ReiNX splash screen while also displaying an error involving something about "magic" and "invalid."

that means it's not updated to be the latest reinx.bin
follow the guide for the sd card layout, removing reinx.bin from the root of the sd card and make sure you payload injector has the latest reinx.bin updated and not an old one

I had all those in mind when I proceeded with the steps. Yet, still, the error arose.
