Hacking [RCM Payload] Hekate - CTCaer mod

[CTCaer]

Trying to wake the system from sleep freezes on a back-lit black screen. 3.0.2.

Good to know.

So far 3.0.1/3.0.2 reported broken.
Anyone that can test and feedback on 3.0.0 to 3.0.2 is welcome.

 

[jakibaki]

but would this still need reboot to launch games?

Not anymore with the sdfiles attached to my post.
It's just a build which includes the nx-hbloader compiled with latest libnx which fixes that issue (none of my work, I just compiled it).

EDIT: Use this one instead!

I'm about to update to the newest to buy some games, I'll let you know how it goes in about a half hour.

Ok some dumb questions

What's the actual difference between your version of hekate and nwert's version - both masters are currently identical - is yours simply a pre compiled binary for peoples convenience ?
What is ipl, its a folder inside the github dir with a bunch of C++ files - it looks to me like some sort of BIOS/basic operating system to get the devices hardware up and running allowing you to then run more software ?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

EDIT:

Ok I think I've answered my own question here - IPL (initial program loader) openqnx[.]com/phpbbforum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=8266
Also I found this very interesting and explains why we are doing this in the first place.

stackoverflow[.]com/questions/6139952/what-is-the-booting-process-for-arm
stackoverflow[.]com/questions/15548004/why-do-we-need-a-bootloader-in-an-embedded-device

ok so my next question - what's the difference between a bootloader and IPL and is hekate one or the other or both ?

I have a 3.0.1 and can confirm sleep is not working. Feel free to contact me for further testing.

On 3.0.2, can verify - sleep starts up to a backlit black screen and sticks!

3.0.0 goes to a backlit blackscreen and joycons lose connection when wireless after the screen is backlit.

3.0.2 not working

 

[CTCaer]

OK
3.0.0-3.0.2 sleep mode not working.
I'm looking at it currently

EDIT:
Unfortunately I don't have the pkg1 with me, so after I come back home.

Works like a charm on 5.0.2. Thx for this, makes the hour and a half commute alot easier.

All of the homebrews I checked out are working great on 5.1.0 with your latest release, games are even loading after running homebrew with out reboot

Sleep mode works, I tried it in many different ways, like loading a game,entering sleep mode, exiting game, load homebrew, enter sleep mode, ect.

Loading games after hbl is on hb loader. Not hekate.

You just have the correct (latest, which actually is month old) hb loader now.

 

[M7L7NK7]

Works on 1.0.0

Navigate with volume and "A" is the power button
