[nxboot] failed to determine mariko warmboot firmware / OFW doesn't work

[Ionutu]

Hi!

I know this topic has been discussed on other threads, however I haven't managed to fix it.
I have a chip modded V2 Switch that used to work with atmosphere 0.18.1 / hekate 5.5.4.
I bought my son the FC24 game, he tried to install it by himself, don't know exactly what he did but it didn't work. I rebooted it to OFW and he could install and play it. When rebooting back to CFW, the "[nxboot] failed to determine mariko warmboot firmware" error showed up. OFW was still working. After reading some other threads I tried to update Atmosphere to 1.6.2, Hekate to 6.0.7, but it did not boot at all. I wiped out everything and reinstall atmosphere 0.18.1 / hekate 5.5.4. The same error shows up. In addition OFW is not working anymore, when trying to reboot the OFW the console shuts down (black screen).

Don't know if it helps, but hekate_ipl.ini shows the following:

[config]
autoboot=0
autoboot_list=0
bootwait=3
customlogo=1
verification=1
backlight=100
autohosoff=0
autonogc=0
bootprotect=0


{ }

{-- Custom Firmwares --}

[AMS 0.18.1 (EmuNAND)]
payload=bootloader/payloads/fusee-primary.bin
logopath=bootloader/res/bootlogo_blackpearl.bmp
icon=bootloader/res/icon_atmos.bmp
{ }

Any ideas on this one?
Thanks.

In the newer atmosphere versions the payæoad change name from fusee-primary.bin to fusee.bin. You need to change that in hekate-ipl.ini otherwise it will not boot cfw.
Do you use emummc for cfw?
What fw version is your sysmmc and emummc on? Atmosphere and Hekate is very old so you might need to update depending on your fw version. If you are on fw 17.0.0 try to boot whatever mmc is not working with Atmosphere 1.6.2

Update to latest atmos and hekate.


Add this and launch "Force sysmmc" once:

[Force sysMMC]

Did you update your fusee_primary payload with the new atmosphere fusee.bin file?

Did all these steps, including changing the name of fusee-primary.bin into fusee.bin, also downloading fusee.bin from the latest version of atm, still same thing.
How can I see the fw version of sysmmc and emummc?

Old hekate...

Update your files

Old hekate...

Update your files

I deleted everything, formatted the SD card and started from scratch using the instructions and links from nh-server.github.io/switch-guide/user_guide/emummc/sd_preparation/

Hekate version 6.07, atmosphere 1.6.2

Same error - Failed to match warmboot with fuses!
OFW also doesn't work - black screen.

 

[josete2k]

Try with another pack

[Ionutu]

Same thing:
A fatal error occurred when running Fusee
Failed to locate warmboot firmware!

 

[josete2k]

Again... Launch CFW on sysmmc once!

Check another sdcard



Edit:
What payload are you launching? I think you're launching an old fusee.bin

 

[Jim_Sfetoudis]

How could i check my Hekate version?

 

[linuxares]

changed sd card, same thing.
I used your link and copied everything from there, including fusee.bin

 

[josete2k]

But, how do you inject the payload?
