Do I need to jailbreak my switch to be able to install themes or backgrounds.

Also I have a Lite, so not sure if the whole process is the same since I only see tutorials for the regular Switch.

I'm looking to create my theme, but I can't find how to make the player selection transparent since it asks for a jpg.
What should I do?
Edit: Nvm, I figured out I had to use DDS.

So, can I just install this on SX OS, or do I need the Lockpick package first? (I read something about getting my keys first? but I am not completely sure why this would be necessary), Thanks!

No it's not needed anymore, but on sx you need to check if your version supports the lockscreen patches, iirc only latest beta does but I don't really follow their updates

Uhm so there have been mutiple reports of latest version of the theme installer randomly crashing while installing a theme, i've opened an issue on github and posted a workaround which should fix it. If that build fixes crashes for you please let me know as it's not a trivial bug to hunt down, try on multiple theme installs.

I installed a theme and now my switch crashes on boot or I had a custom theme, then I updated my console and now it crashes on boot.

Delete the /titles/0100000000001000 and/or /titles/0100000000000811 folders from the cfw folder on your sdcard, at this point your console will boot up normally, to clean up any leftovers launch the theme installer and select uninstall theme.
so do i still do this if its in my contents folder?

I actually happen to use that specific layout for all of my themes and have never encountered that issue, though I can clearly see that the allapps button is not there.

This is probably irrelevant, but how many titles do you have installed? I know that the button only appears if you have more than x amount of titles installed on the switch. I think it's 8 titles but I'm not sure.

Otherwise, what Firmware and which version of Atmosphere are you running?
