Potential Nintendo Switch backup loading using Atmosphere-NX LayeredFS
GBAtemp member @Jan4V has posted instructions that will apparently allow you to load backups on your Nintendo Switch using Atmosphere-NX LayeredFS.
Some users have reported issues with save games but this is still in early development.
Switch backup loading is here: [prebreak]1[/prebreak]
1) Get a title id of any game you have installed from http://switchbrew.org/index.php?title=Title_list/Games (this is your target titleid)
2) Create a directory on SD : sd:/atmosphere/titles/*target_titleid*
3) use hactool to extract the romfs.bin and exefs files from your main nca from the game you want to run instead of your target (its in secure from XCI - the biggest one)
4) put romfs.bin in sd:/atmosphere/titles/*target_titleid*/romfs.bin, exefs files into sd:/atmosphere/titles/*target_titleid*/exefs/
5) Edit titleid in main.npdm (in exefs) to contain target title id (this might help http://switchbrew.org/index.php?title=NPDM)
6) run a fs_mitm containing CFW release, run your target app (https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-get-layeredfs-working.507460/)
Note that saves don't work for me atm, you should wait for mememenu/similar.
Minecraft works, others not tested.
proof video:
Be advised that this is still an early development and requires modifying your console that may result in your ban from Nintendo's online services. Please only attempt this if you know what you are doing and understand the risks involved in modifying your device.
