cool, but pls not more nsps
and hope u know that a DNS edit would work too (sorry when thats not possible. not the best coder ^^)

Not sure what exactly you mean, nsp atm is the only way to do it as I explained, also this has more features than a DNS as it has full video and audio playback as well as not requiring you to possibly be giving all the sites you visit in a long list to someone on the internet.

doesn't work. it just breaks when I try to run it after installing it. needs an icon

Care to explain? I did add an icon in release 0.1.1 but it worked fine when I tried it without too. Please tell me exactly what you see when you say it 'breaks' so I can fix it.

yeah, I know. but i wanted to say that nros have often more downloads than the nsp formats and for example i have a switch with nsps.
Problem, thats in my EmuNAND and this EmuNAND has no Network saves and has airplane mode activated.

Everytime I launch I just recieve this error. My time and date are correct, if that really matters.

That's odd, I definitely don't get that but recall that happening before with the DNS version before. Try mashing L while the app starts and entering another https URL like google.com, then if that works maybe try a bunch of secure sites to see if it's just letsencrypt or not. AFAIK it's a Switch thing not specifically this app's fault but I could be wrong.

Does the same thing. It does work with 90dns right?

Yeah I'm using 90DNS too without issues. Have you booted linux before? It might have messed with the RTC which is what the switch uses for certificate validity (IIRC ignores all the settings in the actual settings apps)

Yes, I've booted lakka before. I suppose there isn't an easy fix is there. Guess I'm just out of luck?

I wish I could remember how I fixed it, I swear I've had the same issue and fixed it, you may just have to wait a few days or something

Just glad to hear there is way to fix it. Surely I'm not the only one with the issue, if it is from running lakka.

yeah, i am on the same page
i think we the people who started playing around with the scene tested lakka at least once

Please check if theres anything you can do about the icon not being displayed while using SXOS

i get a 'system update is required' when trying to open the browser. i think it's because i don't have a nintendo account linked to my switch. is there any way around this?

This is due to the 'supernag' which disables the browser when an update which fixes an exploit is released, you can disable it with homebrew like: https://gbatemp.net/threads/gag-order-a-fix-for-supernag.505765/

I think the icon didn't work in general, it stopped working on mine too not long after releasing the NSP with an icon... Trying to fix for next release!

 

[crc32]

Latest release out and fixes a bunch of stuff like the icon! Might need to reboot after installing the NSP to see the new icon due to cache but it's definitely working now!

 

[TamarindoJuice]

Thanks for the fix, icon now showing up with no trouble!

Amazing job, keep it up dev.

this worked on my switch that is on 4.1.0 firmware, but failed on my 5.1.0 switch. google tells me there's a newer version of gag order (v1.3) but i can't find it anywhere.

What firmware is your console on? I used to get this on 3.x (about 6+ months ago) since the local certificate cache was out of date, so newer certs that were presented by sites weren't seen as valid.

Odd, I have that version but can't actually find it linked to anywhere... If you're willing to trust this file then I attached it below it should work as it worked for me on 6.1

this did not work for me. 'unexpected nag magic' or something 'bailing out' displayed. i tried 5-6 times with reboot to payload and a hard reboot. 5.1.0 fw to reiterate.
