Hacking Accessing microsd through the nintendo switch

[dragonuk]

I take it you can't just plug the Nintendo switch into your pc with a usb cable have have the microsd come up in "My Computer" like how it works with your phone etc?

Whats the best way to add stuff to the microsd without turning off the Nintendo switch and removed the microsd. Is it to install some homebrew app and then run that from within cfw. Which means you don't have to turn off and reactivate exploit

I'm not sure about plugging into a computer, but I use FTPD when I need to transfer files

 

[dragonuk]

what is the transfer speed for FTPD though?

Depends on your Wi-Fi, however its fast enough where I don't need to wait an unreasonably long time

I'm getting 5-6mbyte per second.

Try 'memloader' (look it up) it basically allows what you're asking.

Can i load memloader through sxos by using homebrew menu. Basically i want something like -->

SXOS --> homebrew menu --> memloader or something (some tool to access microsd by connecting usb cable from switch to pc) ---> then exit that tool --> back into homebrew menu/sxos .

Then you can stay in sleep mode in sxos without exiting

Memloader is only a RCM payload AFAIK.

 

[Zumoly]

We don't have that yet.
@Joel16 is working on that feature on his Switch file manager though (might take a while as he's also integrating other basic features).

Homebrew Store does have a ftp through wifi though that you can use. I haven't tried it but I assume you don't have to reboot since its just homebrew.

I've tried to use the FTPD - I can connect and see the files/folders via Filezilla but when I try to transfer anything across to the Switch SD card I get Error code 2345-0021. I've reformatted the SD card and tried again and still same issue.

Any ideas?

Maybe this will help you.

help you.

I’ve tried reformatting the SD Card and still get the same issue. I don’t know if this is still read only or how to change it. I just formatted by right clicking selecting format to exfat. Didn’t change any settings.

Try this?

Connect your sd card to a windows PC and select everything inside.
Right click, properties, advanced, disable "folder/file is ready for archiving". Done.

I’ve just tried that and I get same issue. It transfers a bit across then suddenly the Switch crashes, really strange.

Try a different switch, or a different sd card
