    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Is it possible to dump your carts without installing anything on your Switch? Like using the fusee exploit to run hekate or some other application to dump the games but otherwise not in any way "hacking" the switch with CFW or emunand or anything like that? I have already used to dump a backup...

    PS2 - Any ill effects to using maximum ZSO compression level on ziso.exe? Can it do batches?

    I was using the frontend/GUI PSXiSO but it's a bit... broken (guess that's why it is listed as beta) but it's just a frontend for several CLI-based compression tools, and they look simple enough to use manually (especially with that GUI being a bit messy to deal with). However, I noticed that...

    What options do I have for my hard-modded PS2 going forward?

    I still have my old V9/V10 PS2 from back in the day that was hard-modded with an Matrix Infinity chip. I know it was an official chip and not a bootleg, and that I used to check vigorously for firmware updates for it back in the day. I don't remember what firmware version it was on now but it...

    VERY out of the loop, trying to backup/upgrade my old PS2

    I haven't gotten around to updating the homebrew on my PS2, I thought the modern replacements for PS2 HDD loaders no longer needed the drive in a special format?

    VERY out of the loop, trying to backup/upgrade my old PS2

    I was always going to connect the drive to a computer, the issue is that back then the drives were formatted in a special way that a computer can't read, I needed to find an appropriate program to read them, and the ones I knew were decades old.

    VERY out of the loop, trying to backup/upgrade my old PS2

    Yeah, I was able to get the images off the drive at least.

    Is there any way to mass-restore save data?

    Is there any way to do it if a save slot exists for all the games I want to restore? Any way to batch-upload the files via FTP or something then?

    Is there any way to mass-restore save data?

    So backing up save data from a WiiU is not hard if you have homebrew, SaveMii Mod has a "Batch Backup" option that can just backup everything at once. (Actually, I seem to have three copies of that app. SaveMii, SaveMii Mod, and SaveMii Injectmod, not sure what the difference is). But is there...

    What USB storage device would use the lowest power for the WiiU?

    Which SATA to USB cable though? The circuitry inside it to convert SATA to USB and to convert the 5 volts from the USB to the 3.3 volts the SATA uses can have an impact on power draw. depending what was used.

    What USB storage device would use the lowest power for the WiiU?

    I'll keep those drives in mind if I can't find any other options, though 2.5 drives would be a bit too big and I want to avoid those if possible since I will need two, one for WiiU and one for GC/Wii. Are you aware of any viable M.2 SATA drives and enclosures? Apparently SATA would use a lot...

    What USB storage device would use the lowest power for the WiiU?

    I asked about this before, but it was more about durability back then. Right now that isn't as much as a concern as trying to find a device that the WiiU can actually power without using a Y-Cable or an external AC adapter. I want to have two USB drives for my WiiU, one with my WiiU software...

    Hey everyone. Thanks for the help earlier this month, I just got my Jig and spare MicroSD card and finally did a dump of all of my Switch's contents. It seems to have gone smoothly, but I just wanted to ask here if I did all of this right to make sure I didn't screw anything up. I have an early...

    Thank You so much! Sorry I was being so dumb throughout all this. Going to order a jig and spare MicroSD card now. Hopefully I don't run into any more problems while actually doing it.

    I apologize if I am being dumb about this, just want to make sure I don't mess up. So I am supposed to put hekate.bin on my PC but the entire bootloader folder from the Hekate zip on the root of my MicroSD card right? What about Lockpick_RCM which only included a single .bin file and no other...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    So I need files on both my PC and SD card for both Heckate and Lockpick? I'm not clear on what I will need. Hekate has a zip with multiple files and folders in it, including a folder called "bootloader" with a file in it called "update.bin" which worries me that it will try to install something...

    You have been a godsend with this, Thank You! So just to make sure I understood it all: 1. Connect the Jig and a 64GB or larger MicroSD card to my Switch. I don't need to put any files on the card. 2. Connect the Switch to my PC and use one of those injectors. 3. Use the injectors to launch...

    OH! So I can't do this completely off my of SDcard and need to have the Switch connected to my PC as the injector? And the injector (my PC) will send Heckate or Lockpick to my Switch when it's in RCM mode from the jig? And so NXNandManager will run on a PC? The other two seem to require...

    EXTREMELY helpful, Thank You. I do have a few additional questions though. https://rentry.org/Getting_Started In getting started it shows how to dump your keys before you dump your NAND. Is there any reason to dump the NAND first? Does it make any difference...

    None of the hacking guides seem to mention how to do this, all of them talk about how to fully hack the Switch to install CFW or loaders/homebrew, which I don't want to do. I just want to dump a backup of all my my Switch's internal keys, contents, etc without modifying it in any way...
