Homebrew Suggestion Do it if your switch freezes after launching sleep mode while using hetake

[Hondyn]

Yeah, I know, everyone knows it but I ve noticed lots of people who are new to the scene getting stuck after launching sleep mode while using hetake. So all you have to do is this:

Hold the power buttom for 15 seconds, it will turn the switch off completely then hit the power buttom once more and you ll be good to go from there.

Pretty simple but theres lot of people who still dont know about it. That wouldnt be a bad idea sticking this thread to the top.

Peace

Even PC's have this functionality so it's surprising people don't know it.

Whenever I have to do that (regardless of which device it is) I feel like I'm pressing a cushion on someone's face and slowly suffocate them.

I kinda like that feeling...

or just hold down the power button while the system is still on that has a payload loaded atm and hit powerdown or restart. skipping the need for dealing with the broken sleepmode

Yeah, that's an option for those that gather information BEFORE it eventually happens to them. And even after they've found out the hard way, they'll probably figure that out themselves.

I had to explain how to do it on a PC to my dad, who's been an IT professional for like half a century.

I didn't even know about the broken sleep mode initialy and was able to figure that out on my own.

Good advice. Real people might start moving in the process, so I could really use someone to assist me.

I have to thank you, good sir.
