Hello everyone! and thanks to those who can help me. I made the change to sx pro a year ago and it went well, the problem is that two days ago the switch gives me "boot dat".

I tried to format the sd and redo the process but nothing. I heard that the members of the xecuter team have been arrested, I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Anyway, I ask if you can help me even if with another cfw potentially.

Buongiorno atutti e grazue a chi mi puo' aiutare ho fatto un anno fa la modifica con sx pro ed e' andata bene,il problema e' che due giorni fa la switch mi da boot dat?ho provato a formattare la sd e rifare il procedimento ma niente.Ho sentito che sono stati arrestati i membri del team xecuter non so se centri qualcosa comunque vi chiedo se potete aiutarmi anche se con un altra modifica.GRAZIE

Try to copy again the sxos file on your sd, or try another sd.
Please remeber that's an english forum

Ricopia i file sulla sd o prova un'altra scheda sd.
Ricordati che su questo forum si scrive in inglese

Redownload the boot.dat file from tx's website, format the sd and copy the newly downloaded boot.dat to the sd.

Riscarica il boot.dat dal sito tx, formatta la sd e copia il boot.dat appena scaricato alla sd
 
try another sd card
also check the microsd reader pin if you can, they are small and can be damaged
 
bottom line, it can't find boot.dat. Either your card is damaged, the socket is damaged, the card is fake, or you didn't format it the proper way. This might be old news now, but it used to be recommended that you do NOT use exfat because of possible corruption. If you ever did a manual firmware upgrade and didn't choose the exfat option when installing the firmware, that'll do it too. Of course that is as simple as installing the firmware again choosing the exfat option. Just don't install the very latest as sx isn't updated to support it (I'd say "yet" but with the arrests, who knows...)

if the sd card is pre-formatted in fat32, regardless of size it won't download the exfat update :)

Then it wouldn't be applicable in this case anyway, so your point is...? I'm just tossing out ideas and most "smart" people using CFW aren't using it on sysnand, therefore manually installing updates with choi or daybreak, not simply "downloading them".

I was just adding on/ introducing a detail is all.
 
Idk what your using to format,
but partition scheme for FAT 32 must be MBR, if you use GUID partition table it will not read.
