No luck unfortunately. I'm going to try plugging it in to the ac adapter and charging it instead of charging it through my computer. Hopefully it works but I'm not hopeful.

Edit: Omfg I feel like an idiot. So I had forgotten with autorcm you have to inject a payload so it turns on (I have been busy for awhile so I haven't touched this switch in a few weeks). So I had forgotten I moved the hekate payload to a different location, which is why it wouldn't say anything when I went to inject it, and why it wouldn't turn on or work with any of the hard resets. Thank you so much for the help though. I had never been so happy I had forgotten and was just being dumb. Should I turn off autorcm so it doesn't cause problems in the future? I was worried about using a jig all the time, but now I'm thinking it may be better to turn off autorcm.

Hi guys
I just wanted to know -
1. where do I find layeredfs mods?
2. how do cheats work in atmosphere?
thanks in advance

Tackskull · Jan 21, 2020

Hi guys. I have a switch with atmosphere and I have 2 sd card. The installed sd card is having some games, but I would like to install other games on the second sd card. But switching between two sd card would create some problem to the switch? Or is ok to have two sd card with different games? And what exactly happen to the games saved on the nand?

So i just installed the Kefir Updater yesterday, created my fake account but im also using 90dns and when i play games like Diablo 3 or Doom 2 (Both offline) i always get the message "An error occured, please try it again later If the problem persists, please execute a software update, to do that please check Home menu > Systemsettings > Console".This does not happen with Offline games, i can guess thats a side effect of using Kefir, since it only showed up since i installed it.
Is there a way to get rid of that?

Houjin · Jan 21, 2020

Hey guys, is there some sort of homebrew/tool that allows to move files from SD => NAND and the other way around without reinstalling the content?

Thanks!

Hi is it possible to hard mod any switch

Hi I'm new to switch modding and im wondering because I cannot soft mod my switch is there any hard mods I can do instead?

It is fine to use more than one SD card with the Switch. The saves on your console don't care about whether the game is on the current SD card or not.

Sounds like they need game updates.

The only 2 exploits for the Switch include Fusee Gelee, which involves using a jib and USB cable, and Deja Vu, which is a softmod. Fusee Gelee only works on unpatched consoles manufactured roughly before July 2018 while Deja Vu currently works on consoles with a firmware of 4.1 or lower. Deja Vu can theoretically work on firmware versions 5.0 to 7.0.1 but there is no ETA on when that support will come. If you have a patched console with a firmware above 7.0.1, your only hope is the TX modchip which also has no ETA.

So today, I injected Hekate using "webcfw.sdsetup.com" on my Chromebook to get into my emuMMC and try out a few homebrew apps I downloaded. When I found something wasn't working properly, I rebooted into Hekate through the "Reboot_to_Payload" homebrew to set up autoRCM so I wouldn't have to use a "jig" (a.k.a. Paper Clip), pressed the on-screen "Power-Off" on Hekate's main menu to turn it off, then ejected the Micro SD Card to check it's files. Afterwards, I put the card back in my Switch, connected it to my Chromebook, then went to the site above to inject the Payload again. However, this time I was greeted with the log message "Requesting access to device… Failed to get a device. Did you chose one?" Now, no matter what I try, I can't seem to inject the Payload to turn my Switch on. While I'm currently charging it to be on the safe side, my Switch's Battery was only at around 90% when I shut it off, and what I did with the SD Card didn't take all that long, so I don't think it died on me. I also had both Joy-Cons attached to the console when I powered it off in Hekate and when I tried to re-inject the Payload a second time, if that helps. I had enabled AutoRCM once before just to see what it does, but was able to inject the Hekate Payload through the same site with no problems, so I don't know what, exactly, is going on. I only thing I have to inject payloads is my Chromebook...

Someone Please help me to figure out what is going on and how to fix it, and Thank You for any responses!

Hi all, I'm at a loss here. From time to time I have serious issues booting up my (fully charged, latest atmosphere, latest hekate!) Switch. It just won't turn on. I press the power button for 20 seconds, then 10, then try to charge it, then charge the dongle again... But nothing. Only at some later point in time would it turn on when I power it up using the dongle, seemingly random. Anyone know what could be the problem here? Thanks.

I checked, both games have their newest updates, either my sigpatches are broken (Im on ReiNX) or Kefir broke something because this only started after i installed it.
The code im getting is also Error code 2155-8007 which triggers everytime i start either of them while being connected to the internet via 90dns, but as i said both are updated with their newest patches.
But i do remember Lithium 7.0.1 notified me that Diablo 3s File had some problems and i could only install it when i triggered unsafe install, which is strange since its the same file since day 1 and i never had any problems with it.

Nevermind, it was a false alarm! I managed to fix the problem by using my Sister's Chromebook! Whew! I NEVER using autoRCM again! Though I wonder way it wasn't being detected on MY Chromebook...

can we install tinfoil on the switch v2 (the red box new one's, i bought it yesterday) now? or is the jailbreak still not available?

No, there are no public exploits that allow CFW loading on Mariko or ipatched Switches.

I suspect you have a bad dongle.
If your Switch is charged (not drained dead), you should only need to power it down (power 20s), plug in your dongle, press power once and inject.
Connect your Switch to your PC, follow above steps and see if it gets detected. If not there is some other problem.

Thanks, it worked. Why do I need to power it down (20s) in the first place? I left it in sleep mode.

I have to leave my country for some time, and I want to bring my cfw switch with me. The fact is that for keeping the console on the cfw I am keeping it on rest mode, but for a long travel it would be difficult to recharge the console all the time. I would like to keep the console to rest a bit turning it off. The problem is that I don't have the jig and the exploit tool, so is it possible to enable the console, each time I turn it on, to directly boot in rcm mode?

kleyoX · Jan 22, 2020

My switch falls in the category of possibly patched units, serial number is XAJ7004xxxxxxx, but i used the rcmjig with the results. Can i still hack my unit?? if yes, where can i start? my version is 9.1.0 latest.

This can only be used to move files from my SD to my computer or am I wrong?

Seems as if this error code relates to the console not being on the latest firmware which ReiNX does not support yet. Either update your firmware and switch to a CFW that supports 9.1 or restore a NAND dump made before using Kefir.

AutoRCM will always boot the console in RCM but you will still need to send a payload once it is in RCM in order to boot CFW. Please do not leave the console in RCM for an extended period of time. Also, RCM stands for Recovery Mode so "RCM mode" is redundant.

I recommend following this guide as your Switch is exploitable.

It should work in both directions.

So I've noticed that with mk11 and bloodstained I can't play without logging in to a nintendo account. I did find a homebrew app that will create one, (kipir, or something like that) it says you'll need to back up all saves since it will erase them. Being afraid of messing it up somewhere I haven't tried this method yet. Has anyone found any other solution to this? If not, would anyone be willing to point me in the right direction on how to properly back up and restore your saves?

Thanks

So, I have read around that rcm mode can damage the battery of the switch if rcm mode is prolonged for a long time. So basically a person must be carefull that the switch is turned off and is not in rcm mode. How can I distinguish is the console is off or in rcm?
Can you tell me how to auto rcm mode? There are other risks?
