easy method to access switch hos data

It should be mounted inside /mnt/storage (/mnt/storage/switch_sd for example), that way normal apps can access it. At least that's the way it works on other devices... Most apps just won't see other mount points outside /mnt/storage.

 

I feel like I have followed the guide pretty closely but once it tries to run the second shell command (mkdir), I get an error 127.
I have tried both:
mkdir /mnt/storage/switch_sd
mkdir /mnt/storage/switch sd

Same hang up. Any idea what I might be missing?

Thanks for the guide!

 

FWIW I haven't had to do any of the tasker stuff with Android 10. Once root/magisk is installed every emulator I've tried has been able to navigate to mnt/vendor/factory and read and modify files there.


Now the next task would be to set up symlinks that redirect to HoS folders...

 

Hmmm, I must have done something wrong further down the line. Magisk says I have root access and I can access root folders but I cannot see mnt/vendor/factory I get as far as mnt/vendor/ but not factory. It doesn't matter if I am in RetroArch or file explorer apps like X-Plore, I cannot get any further.

 

go get root explorer by speed software install and open app press the menu (3 lines top left) select home scroll down near the bottom
mnt/vendor/factory
done

dont forget let it have root access when asked

 

I read something over at xda not magisk manager but App2SdPro this app can start a Script as su on boot might be worth looking into and its free
