Hacking RELEASE CTCaer's Hekate w/ Battery Desync Fix

[GalaxyYT]

NOTE: I haven't installed Linux yet (planning to after posting this), so I haven't tested if this works yet.

I did NOT make this. This is an official commit from CTCaer. I only compiled it.

Simply download the payload below, launch it, open the Tools menu, and select Fix battery de-sync. You need a hekate_ipl.ini on the root of your SD card. If you've used Hekate before, you should already have this.
After you select Fix battery de-sync, you can boot into Horizon and it should be fixed.

Lmao as soon as I take my switch apart to resync the battery a software fix comes up. :/

it doesn't work like this.
There's an option in Tools menu.

So wait I don’t need to change anything on SD card? Just the payload?

This makes more sense. So it’s basically the software disconnect for the battery, but packaged into the Hekate release.

Yes. It's not a kip or something that needs to run on HOS boot. It's built-in.

I have no way to tell if it works or not possible fix?

Thanks for sharing this. I've always wanted to check on linux (lakka) myself to see the potential of the psp emulator.
So please report back your experience after you've tried.

Did you read what it said in yellow letters?

 

[ShadowXin225]

I cant recall all of it tbh I know it stated do not have usb plugged in during this process . next press any key to continue pressed volume + proceeded to a blank black screen

tegra rmc smash doesn't detect it now nor my pc .

 

[CTCaer]

You need the wall adapter to re-connect the battery.

 

[ShadowXin225]

I used that no response I have auto rmc set up there was no difference

I hope this will help the guys working on the lakka stuff for the emulator.

 

[CTCaer]

Leave it there for half an hour. And then try again to inject a payload.

If still nothing press power for 15s. And then power + vol+ (not that pwr+vol+ matters with autorcm though.)

 

[ShadowXin225]

I put it on charge for an hour before commenting for help I tired what you said no go my desktop doesn't detect it when I plug it in.

 

[CTCaer]

Did you connected it to PC, pressed power for 12-15s, and then without pressing sth else, pwr+vol+ ?
