    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    Hey, sorry I just saw this. My issue ended up being something with the switch hardware. I sent that one back to the seller and got it replaced, the new one works pretty good so far.

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    So just an update, got my new unpatched switch this afternoon. It was able to go into RCM no problem, first try. Have it running CFW and all that np. So, it would appear there was definitely some kind of hardware fault like the other, and sounds likely it's from the USB controller chip based...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    As I understand what their saying: if you have AutoRCM mode on and the chip dies (or something otherwise happens to where a PC or phone can't pick it up in RCM), then you can't push a payload to it to to get it past RCM and will be stuck with only being able to turn the switch on and get into...

    Hacking Question Switch doesnt get recognized by PC

    OP from the other thread linked above. This is interesting, I have pretty much the same issue. I bought mine on ebay, which I'm thinking was a mistake now. I can charge it but it won't get picked up in RCM on any PC. Yet I can turn around and get my patched switch no problem. I didn't think to...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    Thanks I'll have to check that one out too. The new one should be here later this week, I'm hoping it doesn't have the same issue. I guess we'll see, if it doesn't I'll refund it entirely and look into other options. Are there any recommended places to buy unpatched switches?

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    The switch is already well on it's way back. Like I said, I can detect my patched switch just fine, but this one can't be detected on any one of my 3 PCs, and 5 different cables. It took me all of a minute to get my patched unit in RCM and detected, but 6 hours of playing with this one and...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    Updating again, I initiated a refund/replacement with the seller, and they have approved. So hopefully the next one will work. Thanks for the replies :)

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    So as an update, I grabbed my patched switch from home at lunch, and I was able to get it immediately detected on my PC at work. This leads me to believe that it's something with this switch, likely maybe something with the USB.

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    Sorry just noticed the edit. On the SXOS, no, I don't know how I could. My issue is that windows won't even recognize the switch as anything at all when in RCM mode (as far as I can tell.) No noise, nothing in device manager, not even APX or Unknown Device. On the second point: Would the SD...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    I've tried about 5 different cables at this point. Even my patched switch can get into RCM just fine, and could be detected on my previous home desktop, it just can't send a payload. At least that was the case when I tried it about 6 months ago. I checked in https://ismyswitchpatched.com/...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    I've been trying to find a way to see if OTG is enabled. The default mode is set to file transfer, which is suggested here: https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/9b8p49/usb_otg_not_working_on_android_pie/ (for my phone as well.) It sounds like Pixel XL and Pie could be having issues with...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    Oh, also I tried connecting it online. It seems to work fine, from what I can tell it doesn't appear to be banned. It also updated D3 which I have inserted. When I got it, it was pretty much factory reset as well. No users, data, etc. I had gone through the initial setup before doing anything as...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    I appreciate the help :) I hope I didn't sound annoyed at you or anything, wasn't my intention. Looking through the thread, it sounds like theirs shows up in the device manager, just as unknown device. Mine doesn't even get that far :( Yeah, it was actually slightly discharged when I got it...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    Afraid I didn't, it was one of those sellers who looked to be selling a number of unpatched units (as well as a bunch of other stuff.) They're all advertised as unpatched, but that's about it. I suppose I could go online and try to see if it's banned or not. Would the CFW crashing prevent it...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    So I'm at work trying it, same thing. Tried two different USB ports. It charges, I shut it down, put it into RCM, nothing shows up in device manager (didn't even install the drivers this time, hoping I can just see it as APX or even unknown before messing with the drivers.) Also tried even more...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    Yeah I've tried pretty much everything in that thread. The only thing I haven't is TegraRcmSmash, but the issue is windows won't even detect it at all so I'm not sure what that would do, plus from what one guy said in that thread the GUI is just a wrapper around the same back end code. - I put...

    Hacking Question Switch appears to be in RCM, Windows won't pick it up at all

    So I've got a switch on 9.0.1 that I bought on ebay. It seems to be in pretty good condition, and has a serial of XAW70013* and shows as not patched (I know it being patched and RCM is not directly related, just stating it so it's known.) I got it into RCM using a jig by turning it off, putting...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Ah, so just to make sure I understand. Is the update pending to 5.1.0 on mine, or was the update simply pending when I got it, and it applied the pending update to 5.1? That's good to know. So it sounds like as long as I don't go online and upgrade any further, I should be good and can just...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    I have a patched switch (XAW100899), it was running 4.1.0. I haven't set it up online at all, but when I went to play Diablo 3 on it, it wouldn't let me play until I upgraded the system. I hit ok and it updated the system (offline) to 5.1.0. So I've got two questions: The system version, just...

    ROM Hack Suggestion save editor for diablo 3

    Oh for sure. The only reason I even want to run a CFW is to mod my save game and catch up to my retail char, and/or back it up to my PC, and of course my switch is patched :(
