    Homebrew RELEASE Update - SkyNX v1.4 - Stream your PC games to your Switch without Android!

    I'm having difficulty with a slight portion of the screen being cut off, as well as no audio. I'm running it at 1280x720, and I've tried all the different encoding formats. Any tips would be appreciated, as the tool seems to work well, just no audio. It won't let me launch the application from...

    Homebrew RetroArch Switch

    Hi all! I've been trying to play Final Fantasy IV the Complete Collection using PPSSPP core on Retroarch. However, the game keeps freezing (often mid-battle) and will not respond, forcing me to close the app. Has anyone encountered this or have any tips? I just saw in the thread that there is a...

    Hacking 2nd modded Switch - need to start at beginning?

    Good to know about 90DNS. I already went through all the steps and ran Incognito again - I'm actually using both 90DNS and Incognito, just because I'm paranoid. I may reverse Incognito and reapply my SN after your post - thanks for the info!

    Homebrew Question PPSSPP slow caching

    I figured out where to put the save data, but am still curious about the caching issue. Hoping I don’t encounter the issue using PPSSPP in Retroarch. Thoughts?

    Homebrew Question PPSSPP slow caching

    I was playing FFIV on PPSSPP on my switch for 30-40 minutes today and suddenly got the message that the game was switching to slow caching because the video memory was full. Then, all the sprites on the screen disappeared both in battle and on the field. I launched into PPSSPP by launching a...

    Hardware New Switch - use same SD card?

    I’m getting a new unlatched Switch since the one I modded arrived with faults. Can I plug in the SD card I used in the other system in the new Switch and boot up CFW? Or should I delete the Nintendo and emuMMC folder and start from scratch? I hate to redownload games that I’d downloaded...

    Hacking 2nd modded Switch - need to start at beginning?

    I'm trying to start out modding a new Switch, as I'm returning the one I was initially working on. Will I be able put in the SD card that I already created an emuNAND with into the new Switch, launch Atmosphere and access all of the same content? Or do I need to start over, and create a new...

    Hacking Factory reset?

    Sorry I wasn't clear. An ebay seller that sold my Switch was suggesting the factory reset to potentially solve a problem I have when docking the Switch. When docked, the Switch is charging but the picture is not being sent to the TV. The TV continues to return a "no signal." The factory reset...

    Hardware Recently hacked switch - now docking flickering

    I can’t tell if it’s my imagination or not, but it does feel looser than my other Switch. The repair shop thought the usb c port looked decent from the outside, but based on comments here, I suspect it’s that or the PI3USB chip.

    Thank you for the suggestion! I was talking to a local repair shop, or sending it back to the eBay seller I got it from. noob question, but what do you mean look up the serial number in Horizon? I have noted the SN from the Switch settings after I reset the console. Waiting to do a full NAND...

    Hardware Recently hacked switch - now docking flickering

    An update. I tried a factory reset. My smart TV recognized the Switch is plugged in and prompts me to change to that input. However, no picture is displayed. Tested on another dock and TV with the same result. Considering doing a NAND restore since I may send the console back. (Or I might...

    Hacking Factory reset?

    Someone is suggesting doing a factory reset to see if the Switch will then cast to my TV. Would this be okay to do if I have been using emuNAND and CFW? Or should I do a NAND backup restore?

    Hacking 2nd modded Switch - need to start at beginning?

    I was seeing in other threads that that might be the issue. I'm trying to find someone near me who fixes Switches and can do this for me. For my other question, does anyone know if I need to go through all of the same steps (setting up an emuNAND, starting with clean SD card, etc) from the...

    I'm sorry to revive this thread, but I'm having the issue that my modded Switch won't connect to the TV. It seemed to be connecting fine, and then one day it flickered/glitched and will now longer cast to the TV. I am planning on bringing it into a local game store for a repair, but I should I...

    Hacking 2nd modded Switch - need to start at beginning?

    Hi all, I was successful in modding a refurbished Switch that I purchased. However, the Switch has suddenly stopped casting to the TV when docked. I'm looking into getting it repaired by a local game shop. In the meantime, I've purchased another moddable Switch. A question, because I'm very...

    Hardware Recently hacked switch - now docking flickering

    Hello all! I post this in the hardware section because I fear that the real cause of my issues is a problem with the USB-C port used for docking/charging on the Switch. I just purchase this moddable Switch, so that I could do mods and have the best of both worlds with handheld/tv mode. However...

    Hacking Tinfoil Installer Not Working

    Sorry about that. I am new to all of this and was not sure what information was needed. I likely was not using the proper signature patches. I followed a new tutorial online that directed me to the most update sig patches, and Tinfoil successfully installed.

    Hacking Tinfoil Installer Not Working

    So I'm still having issues getting the Tinfoil installer to run. I just updated the Tinfoil files on the SD card, booted into Atmosphere, and clicked install. Now I have a blank tile with a spinning symbol in the middle (like where a game tile would be). I tried deleting it from data management...

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.
