Hacking Question How is your experience with SX OS?

[Spacer21]

The game switching has been really smooth and easy, loads better than having to swap cartridges around.
It does seem to crash occasionally, for me only when going into the game select "album".
I have AutoRCM installed though, it's slightly annoying to have to connect it when it does reset, but so far not a big deal.

Haven't checked the Bomebrew menu launcher yet, but I assume this works.

Enjoyed this thread as someone who has not been following the sx build up it really gives me an insight to how everything works. Has anyone done a really solid in depth video yet¿ the ones I’ve seen have been fairly pish.

This one would probably be the best I've seen, goes through the setup & activation, game switching, and launching.

If you have an Android that doesn't have a USB C port you can get Micro USB OTG adapter and use your USB A to USB C cable. Otherwise PC it is then. Of course if you keep it charged and or docked it shouldn't be too bad. Only need to use your PC if you fully power it off.

i own 2 otg cables ,will that work?
sorry i mean usb c otg, i own a usb c type phone

You should be able to use the USB C to A OTG hooked up to your type A to USB C cable on your phone going to the Switch. I just picked up a C to C cable for it's size and no need for any adapters.

Does exactly what it's advertised to do. Money well spent.

0 problems so far.

Not had a single problem in regards to game backups. All worked flawlessly with no crashes.
There is however an issue with the homebrew loader. Some homebrew games/Emulators that worked via hekate either hard crash or run more slowly. However thankfully it is also possible to chainload payloads via SXOS by placing the relevant payloads in the root of the SD - e.g to run memloader or hekate. (Hold volume up while booting SXOS to reach the SXOS Boot page.)

For the games I wanted to play - 0 issues so far. Was skeptical paying for something that might be free one day but it feels like a well-made product and so I'd recommend it. I also hope they'll continue supporting it despite those cracking efforts, with card2 support and homebrew fixes it will be pretty perfect. I'd also like to have a way of installing updates and DLC locally.

wherd you get yours from ? x.x
i need to cancel my order from 3dsflashcard, because i get the feeling they are not able to do the processing with the mastercard i used..

i use a gift card, it usually works great with amazon (it only does not work with paypal based sites like ebay).

edit: asked allen ,he said the site does not accept giftcards!!

Care to tell me more details of your experience?

I would as describe it as: kids could do it with proper instruction

I suggest you just use the paper clip jig, it doesn't even put any stress on the connector, you will know once you try em
Plus you can just randomly smack them in and it just work.
