Goldleaf

Goldleaf is a multipurpose homebrew tool for Nintendo Switch!

Similar to the well-known 3DS homebrew FBI, Goldleaf serves as a file browser/manager/editor, title manager, user account manager... and more!



Let Goldlead make your life easier while dealing with more or less technical Nintendo Switch stuff!

Some nso files says installed successfully but when go to the home screen all i have was a Loading Icon and cant start the software. Using usb installation gold tree. I can install some games but some times it shows blank icon.

Do i have to downgrade to 0.5 to make it work ?
I have 0.7

I'm not too privy with the process, but I'm sure it has something to do with the algorithm. Goldleaf is deliberately slower in order to ensure proper installs.

Incorrect. Tinfoil is more reliable at installing titles than Goldleaf. Goldleaf was not always slower, however it had stability problems with the fast installs because it was not implemented correctly, so he reverted to slower installs to increase Goldleafs stability. Tinfoil does not have any stability issues with fast install.

i have been wanting to ask this question for so long:

I have no problem with goldleaf.nro and even the recent quark pc client is working fine with goldleaf.nro.

The problem is that ever since, i have not been able to make the goldleaf.nsp to work. from older fw until now. it would always say "The software was closed because an error occured"

@XorTroll would it be possible to like access the SD card inside the Switch through PC/Quark?
I know it is possible to access the PC files from Switch Goldleaf, but I want to know if the other way around is possible as well, so that we can send files to the Switch's SD remotely (not necessarily NSPs, other files as well), without having to remove the SD at all.

I think that would be pretty hard to implement, just look at the fact that some homebrew has been written solely for the purpose of managing the microSD files without removing it: https://gbatemp.net/threads/mtp-server-nx-open-source-usb-file-transfer-for-switch.547273/

It would be nice to have on Goldleaf, nonetheless, given how you can already use Goldleaf as some sort of SD browser to copy, paste, move, etc. files around in the SD.

Also, I asked because MTP Server NX crashes for me whenever I try to open the MTP device.
As soon as it starts loading up the folders, it crashes, so there's currently have no way to send files to the SD for me.

On Goldleaf 0.7.2, and Switch firmware is 9.0.1. Trying to install NSPs, but I am getting Error: 2356-0008. Key generation mismatch (console's firmware is too low) (8).

Is this an issue with me updating to 9.0.1?

So I have goldleaf 0.7.3 on one of my switches updated to Newer firmware, but i am getting very slow speeds of under 1 MB/s. Its not my USB cable because my other switch I kept on 8.01 using goldleaf using the same USB cable is 15-20 MB/s. Has anyone else had this problem or have a fix?

XorTroll, will you be implementing batch install in the next Goldleaf version? I feel it's really needed. In addition the option to disable hidden files while browsing directories would be huge too.

Might be your SD card check to see if it fake or not first.

I got Quark to work on linux with java 12 by updating JFoenix dependency in pom.xml before compiling.
JFoenix has a compability issue with java > 8, so they have separate releases. If you want to support both java 8 and java > 8, you have to make two separate releases for Quark as well.

I uploaded Quark.jar for java > 8 for anyone who needs it: https://mediafire.com/file/9bvmhc6f8avantj/Quark.jar/file

Card's fine. Its a 256GB i used on my other switch before switching to a 512GB. I even reformatted it before I jailbroke my other switch. If not the card, not sure what else it could be. I got my prod keys, most updated sigpatches. Any other suggestions>

But was the card ever tested with H2testw? As it is writing data to the card, have you experience slow speed installing games from the sd card directly, is the sd card that is writing really slow Class 10, A1 or U3? You can try Godleaf 0.3 that I mentioned earlier see if there is any speed difference.

I get error error 2356-0009 (goldleaf 0.7.2 and 0.7.3) while trying to install nsp. What does that error mean?

EDIT: i got error "2356-0009" in goldleaf because my NSP files were on "read only" (not sure why). Fix'd now though :)
