Hacking Discussion R4S Dongle revealed for Switch

[BlastedGuy9905]

Literally all this is is a Homebrew launcher. That’s it. They use layeredfs to boot xci games and they use tinfoil to install nsps. This is complete garbage

I don't think people buy this expecting a CFW. More like just a dongle you can flash to anything you want.

Anyone got tear down pics would like to see the internals

[temper999]

Anyone knows how to generate the UF2 files by self?

 

[Nevercholt]

I've also contacted them, they sent me the r4i b9s card before, i don't think they will send me anything this time, it's just $20 dongle with jogjig and USB cable.

we'll see, one of the employees has forwarded my mail to a manager so I didn't get rejected right away xd

 

[Dissaor]

Just ordered from this seller, thx

 

[Ashura66]

Uh, well aint this interesting. What i want to know is, is it worth it? Is it dangerous? I remember i had an R4 flashcart on my old DS and it was great

If interested, skip to 28:46 to get a better size comparison of the R4S to that TX SX BRICKway Gateway thing

Liking how it looks, even more. $20USD to have it all in the Switch scene now that free CFW/homebrew is a beast!

I've contacted them but I think that my channel is too small to get this dongle from them

You have 1 of the most dedicated channels I've seen for this stuff. Tell them to log in to GBA, lol. It would, really, be a vacuous decision to deny you.

TX SX BRICKway Gateway thing

Please provide proof for bricks with SX OS.

This joke is so old it's not even funny anymore.

This is the question. Everytime a CFW has an update you have to wait til R4i makes the new UF2 files or can you make your owns?

EDIT: Dumb question.

Thank you They send me one in 3 days

Have anyone found a way to convert payload.bin into CURRENT.UF2 ?
Thanks

 

[DollyWhipDoll]

Never noticed that hole on the bottom, left. Must be a reset button. Also, they have their own splash screen. @5:32

Good! I'll be looking.
Also, a note...

Just saw your video about the 6.0 update. It's SciresM behind Atmosphere, not Mike Heskin.

This joke is so old it's not even funny anymore.

About as old as they're foolishness, but not as comical.

Spoiler

THEY'RE the ones that admitted to having a brick in their, stolen, free (it seems many don't understand copyleft licenses, so...) homebrew and Nint's property. And, they're the ones that admitted it's still there. Doesn't matter because they're about done in the Switch scene. Lmfao @ these, desperate, 'updates'. Especially the BS about 'stealth'. LOL! NONE of its 'safer' and free is here, so arrivederci, Gateway!

If I'm not wrong all this dongles (this, NS-Atmosphere or the chinese one you can find in the forum) are an Adafruit SAMD21 (M0), so I think you can build your own payloads. You can check the Adafruit website, it says you can build your own UF2 from binaries.

EDIT: The process should be like this tutorial.

Michael/Mike is his real name SciresM is his nickname

For completion: the payloads they supply even contain the words "Adafruit trinket m0".

The button to the right has to be pressed twice to change the payload. The hole to the left is a status LED.

If it's cheap, I might get it for the dongle.

As far as i can see. it is not as cheap as NS-ATMOSPHERE.

So the tutorial is completely valid. As soon as I recieve mine I'll check it.

Why should it be invalid?
