    Updating hwfly firmware - boots into OFW automatically, no LED

    First of all, it's not an original hwfly chip but a clone one. You shouldn't update firmware on these clone chips as they are not compatible with official hwfly firmware or the community spacecraft-nx firmware. Later v4.x/v5 clones may be compatible but still have a ton of stability issues. You...

    Switch will not boot to stock rom after upgrade to OS 16.1.0

    You need to hold both vol buttons before nintendo logo shows up, not when nintendo logo is on screen. Did you restore everything? including boot0/1?

    Switch will not boot to stock rom after upgrade to OS 16.1.0

    Yeah you can try the beta release of atmosphere first, see if it boots your ofw. Or you can simply boot without injecting hekate, on chipped consoles you can use reboot-ofw option in reboot menu. You can do factory reset by entering maintenance mode, hold vol+ and vol- when booting ofw. Or you...

    Switch will not boot to stock rom after upgrade to OS 16.1.0

    First of all, are you sure you updated to 16.1.0 not 17.0.0? 17.0.0 is the latest fw now.

    prodinfo needs to be decrypted. Make sure the first few bytes read "CAL0" in ascii area, otherwise it's not decrypted properly.

    Newbie on HWFLY v6 - what i should do after install the modchip?

    There are no more original hwfly chips in production, so your best bet right now is instinct nx. iirc they are now selling instinct nx with lite and v2 adapters, so it can be used on v2 without soldering jump wires. Or you can use those rp2040 based ones, it's cheaper than instinct nx but less...

    Newbie on HWFLY v6 - what i should do after install the modchip?

    That's a clone, return it if you still can, or open a dispute. Whatever you do, DO NOT flash the firmware on the chip. Since it's a clone it's not 100% compatible with official firmware. If you brick it it's done for. I think I saw this exact clone last year when another group tried to bring...

    Updating Firmware via AIO/Daybreak with DeepSea - Custom Themes?

    Did you install custom themes? I saw 1013 folder which is used for custom themes and should also be deleted. Also I noticed bd00 which meas you have mission control, you have to update it first before updating system.

    Create a new usd to boot Atmosphere

    It's more complicated than copy/paste if your emummc is partition based. You need to create a backup of your existing emummc setup in hekate, partition your new micro sd card, copy it over and restore it. If all you want is your save files not games, it's actually easier to export all your saves...

    HwFly Clone with FPGA Solid White Light after flashing HWFLY 0.7.2

    which chip is it? if it's v4 it should be fully compatible with hwfly-nx 0.7.2 firmware. If it's a v4.1, v5 or clone of v5, there's a chance that flashing hwfly-nx firmware will brick it. Return it if you can, or ask seller for original firmware. If it's instinct nx (v6), hwfly-nx won't even...

    Reccomended chip for Erista V1 unpatched?

    Yes but it's not fusee suite iirc. It doesn't have a configuration screen and will boot to hekate automatically. Just follow the installation guide provided by the seller and it works. Or you can flash fusee suite, there's a special build for rcmx86

    Hardware questions...

    That's a picofly core, not hwfly. For firmware updates, installation diagram etc. you can refer to the picofly thread in pinned section. You can also use sthetix's video guides for installation, they are very detailed.

    Init eMMC Failed, no NAND backups

    That just won't work, different protocols as switch uses emmc 5.1. Imo just buy an emmc programmer on aliexpress, the realtek sd card reader based ones are around $10. Or take it to a local repair shop

    Init eMMC Failed, no NAND backups

    Iirc you can use boot0/1 from another console, or generate a new/generic one with emmchaccgen, that should be enough to boot your console into hekate. With access to hekate, you can use lockpickrcm to dump your console keys and generate proper boot0/1 images for your own console and fw version...

    Init eMMC Failed, no NAND backups

    You can't boot an oled with blank emmc, the modchip monitors emmc activity to confirm voltage glitch is successful, and the cue is reading of BTC iirc. If you put a blank emmc chip in it without correct boot0/1, switch won't boot up as modchip can't see if the glitch is successful or not. You...

    Need help installing Picofly Core - ==*

    The ribbon cable may look the same but the pinout could be different, you need to trace every single pin on the ribbon to make sure they are really the same layout. Your led error code also confirms the ribbon cable isn't working properly.

    Strange screen OLED

    Seems like a ribbon cable issue to me too, either it's not inserted properly or it got damaged during modchip installation.

    OLED instinct nx v6 SD card problem

    Usually samsung sd card has the best compatibility with mod chips, especially for old unflashable hwfly chips. I always use sandisk ultra and it also works just fine with hwfly v4 and instinct v6
