Hacking Atmosphere-NX - Custom Firmware in development by SciresM

[chocoboss]

Of course I know that. But the main problem is that we dunno what happened in background since your app is closed source.

Should I trust you ?

@blawar I will stop that now, I'm bored, I just hope this will end better than what it is actually

The reason is known: firmware installs and incognito install. You are spreading fud

I see no reason for firmware and incognito installs to be included with tinfoil

Tinfoil is getting so bloated you'd think it is on its period

 

[Y0sh1]

I like the way having nut running on the PC and pointing to my local folder with nsp files, the updates available for installed games show up in tinfoil. That is the only reason I use it

But I also like plain Atmosphere and trust it better, so I just don't update tinfoil

The reason is known: firmware installs and incognito install. You are spreading fud

There are two sane options:

1. Maintain Incognito / firmware updating as separate programs (or one separate program) -- and then you can rightfully say Atmosphere doesn't support its use, but its use is its purpose.
2. Gracefully degrade those options so the rest of Tinfoil -- the title installing parts -- still work even if we don't open our systems up.

You dont need a github to know the app needs access to nand to install firmware.

Sure, but while I respect your decision not to keep tinfoil open-source, some of the other decisions you make seem shady, and we can't double-check the source, so like, why trust it, from our perspective?

Tin foil hat conspiracy theories about wanting to steal certs aren’t really helpful. But the fact that certain other CFW are blocked regardless of their ability to install homebrew NSP as well as enforcing a certain type of kips (using Soviet-style ‘whataboutism’ as justification) shows that practical limitations are not the only consideration.

@blawar I am using your NEUTOS fork of Atmosphere for ease of using tinfoil. I utilize both Atmosphere (NEUTOS) and SXOS and have run into an issue using Argon NX. NEUTOS also uses boot.dat for loading so when trying to reboot to SXOS it keeps sending me back to NEUTOS obviously. Is it possible to have NEUTOS load under a slightly different name, or can someone here guide me to a workaround?

 

[Lacius]

It's nintendo's standard, the most standard of standards

What are you even talking about? The issue here is you are refusing to use the standardized homebrew environment that virtually every other homebrew developer uses, instead using a homebrew NSP. The issue is also that you require Tinfoil to have certain privileges that, publically, aren't needed by the app for anything other than system update installs and Incognito.

This is all your prerogative, but don't act like Atmosphere is blocking Tinfoil (it's the other way around) or that wanting a standardized homebrew environment has anything to do with it.

Neutos is not my fork.

My apologies @blawar


Found a workaround. Used the reboot_payload.bin from the atmosphere folder of vanilla atmosphere.

I use fuse-primary.bin from vanilla atmosphere, everything works well and doesn't overwrite sx os.

I just checked the crc of each file. Seems reboot_payload.bin is just a renamed version of fusee-primary.bin located in a different folder.

Lame. ChoidujourNX installs firmware, and doesn’t need a fork. Maybe incognito is a good excuse, but (I’ve never used it) does the actual incognito run without a fork?

PRODINFO commit \o/

So with this new version, what would be the best and your recommended way to do the PRODINFO settings for the "safest" possible option with the Switch to connect it to WiFi?

 

[AamitMorthos]

Can anyone help me out with this? I'm having trouble launching into homebrew menu using the album or even an app. It just crashes. I tried the most recent files from nx-hbloader, kosmos, atmosphere.

 

[spotanjo3]

Atmosphère 0.12.0 is out!

 

[PHiLiPZ]

That’ what June 15th means

 

[spotanjo3]

That’ what June 15th means

No. That is stupid topic: Happy June 15th. Doesn't makes no sense. I can't wait to see June 15, 2020 and see what's happened. WHAHAHAHAHA!

This can be turned on in sysmmc by setting blank_prodinfo_sysmmc=1 in exosphere.ini, and in emummc by setting blank_prodinfo_emummc=1 in exosphere.ini.

So If I understand, if I put blank_prodinfo_emummc=1 in exosphere.ini this will make my switch as if it is in incognito mode ?
