Has anyone managed to use the USB slot for homebrew loading? My SD slot isn't working, so I was just curious. I added the poll in case you don't want to reply.

Alright, that isn't much use to me, since I won't do any piracy, but thank you!I am pretty sure only SXOS has the option to use the USB port and only to play XCIs or install games.
How did you manage to fornicate your SD Card slot? Maybe some of the wiser mammals around here might be able to help you in fixing your SD Card slot.Has anyone managed to use the USB slot for homebrew loading?

I have no idea, it just occasionally says it cannot access the slot and crashes.How did you manage to fornicate your SD Card slot? Maybe some of the wiser mammals around here might be able to help you in fixing your SD Card slot.
Maybe solder pads need a bit of solder?I have no idea, it just occasionally says it cannot access the slot and crashes.
The SD card slot is held in with one screw and its modular meaning it plugs in to the motherboard with a ribbon cable with a press in block on the end and is easily changed. I have 2 switches on the operating table at the moment that need a new battery terminal and the other a new charge port both if which need solderingMaybe solder pads need a bit of solder?
Thank you, friendly mammal. I was unaware that it is a flat cable that connects the SD Card slot to the motherboard.The SD card slot is held in with one screw and its modular meaning it plugs in to the motherboard with a ribbon cable with a press in block on the end and is easily changed.

So, should I try pushing it in a bit?Thank you, friendly mammal. I was unaware that it is a flat cable that connects the SD Card slot to the motherboard.
Maybe it is loose, then?
No, you might break the thing, the best for you would open up the console and check if the flat cable is badly positioned and reseat it.So, should I try pushing it in a bit?
that isn't piracy unless you pirate the files? You can legally dump, and use your own files with pretty much allcfwAlright, that isn't much use to me, since I won't do any piracy, but thank you!

I don't recall having ever dropped it, but maybe by someone else? The Joy-Cons also sometimes say they're disconnected when they're in the rails.No, you might break the thing, the best for you would open up the console and check if the flat cable is badly positioned and reseat it.
Has the console been dropped at least once?
Oh, you got it used? So it *might* have had a few meetings with gravity.I don't recall having ever dropped it, but maybe by someone else? The Joy-Cons also sometimes say they're disconnected when they're in the rails.
I did not get it used, I meant that someone I let use it might have and not told me. I really don't want to do this myself. If I send it to Nintendo to be repaired, will they remove the exploit? I'd like to keep the hackability of my Switch, but I also want to... not open it up myself.Oh, you got it used? So it *might* have had a few meetings with gravity.
I would open up theconsole and check if the cabling is seated properly. If you are a competent tinkerer (I am not), you can go the extra mile and recheck most connections searching for something out of place.
The best you can get is an improvement in usability?
They will replace the motherboard, that's for sure.I did not get it used, I meant that someone I let use it might have and not told me. I really don't want to do this myself.
