Have been reading a lot the past days, thanks for the links.
I have issue with accessing RCM.
Even 3D printed a jig, but it's not working.
Am I doing anything wrong? Or do I just keep on trying and hoping for the best?

I use a 3d printed jig, no problem. From power off mode, you have the jig in the right side controller slot, press the volume + and power same time. If nothing shows on screen, all black, then it is in RCM mode, hook to PC and push payload with Tegra. If Switch boots normal, power down and re-try, untill you get it to RCM, all black screen. On PC, TegraRcmGUI will show if Switch is in RCM mode or not, while hooked to PC with usb cable. You can run it on PC and keep trying till you get it in RCM.
If PC not reconize the Switch, get and install "zadig-2.4.exe" on PC if have not by now. Install the Switch Drivers. Also try using different cables, PC, android phone, etc. to push a payload, if TegraRcm not working. Have seen it many times be a simple usb cable. Good Luck!
That way it does not kill your Main battery quicker while on the go.Its weird flaw that i don't understand either
It's so they can make gimmicks like thisOh, I get it now. Thanks

Typical Nintendo, making more accessories than what is needed. XD
Hi! I just ordered my first hackable Switch and I am very excited for it to arrive. I'd like to ask a few questions beforehand about emunand/emummc(?) as I don't think I understand it very well. It's never something I've had to mess around with on my 3DS or Wii. Any help appreciated :-)
1. How big could I make an emunand? I ordered a 200gb sd card-- could i make my emunand partition 100 or 150gb and leave the rest as sysnand?
2. How would I swap between sysnand and emunand? Does Hekate have a toggle or something?
3. Could I do system/game updates in sysnand without it affecting emunand? On a broader scale, exactly what data is shared between emunand and sysnand? do they basically act as two different consoles?
4. What all could I do to prevent (or at least reduce the chances of) my console getting banned? Would using 90DNS in emunand and not using cfw at all in sysnand be enough?
I know that's a lot, sorry... thanks in advance!

And when exactly does this error message pop up?
Yes, that is the whole purpose of emuMMC; to be on a higher firmware version than sysMMC.

- You can make it as big as you want but it doesn't offer that much advantages because a bigger partition will just mean a bigger "internal memory" but the internal memory for emuMMC uses the SD card anyways so might as well use the default size or smaller even
- Hekate is a bootloader meaning its the first thing that the console launches when you're using it. When you're in Hekate, you choose if you want to boot into sysMMC or emuMMC. If you want to switch between them, you would have to reboot back into Hekate. If you are in CFW, you can do this by using the Restart function found in the Power menu (if you hold the Power button for 3 seconds). Otherwise, you will have to turn off your console and send the Hekate payload again
- The whole purpose of emuMMC is to operate independently of sysMMC so doing an action in one has no bearing on the other. While they share no software, they do share the hardware which applies to things like the cartridge slot & anti-downgrade fuses
- Never going online with CFW/homebrew is sufficient. However you accomplish that is up to you. Yo can use 90DNS or just not have any Wi-Fi settings at all in emuMMC
Well when I look up that error code, it says title-ID/save data not found which is basically what you were describing earlier. Have you checked to see if the SD card is fake or not?
Okay, so I probably should have done this earlier, but I formatted my sd card again reinstalled everything (not only the emunand) and chose for a SD file instead of a partition. It's working now! Thanks for your help!
I still have one question I once booted into sysnand with cfw and setted 90dns up, then I installed exosphere, then I also launched homebrew via a game this shoudn't be a problem right? And is it always safe to restore a nand backup?
Where should I go to check on the scene with a specific game (IE ACNH, Mario Kart, etc) to see what people are getting banned for? I want to be safe and clear my games before then. I've also heard specifically that you can play Splatoon 2 while booted into CFW as long as you DO NOT load any cheats or mods (IE layeredFS)
Hello all! I have an up to date Switch (save for the latest patch) with matching cfw. I purchased a new, larger SD card, and am having trouble with it. I can boot to cfw fine with my old memory card, and am using a file based emummc. I tried copying everything to the new SD card, and when I try to inject either fusee or hetake, it either crashes or doesn't load. Am I doing something wrong? I did a slow format on my new SD card and it still doesn't work
They asked me one thing:if you download a .NPS game from the internet and want to transfer it to the Switch,how do you transfer if the sdcard is in FAT32?

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@
Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
-
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
