I don't how to setup correctly can u help me out .
1. Dropped the argon folder+bin sd card root
2. Hecakete payload and fuse bin in the argon/payload folder nothing happened
im thinking the sd card need to format first with the switch but I can't do that cause switch can't power up without a boot loader

Just change your payload.bin to Argon-NX, you be able to load SX OS with Argon NX

I'm still having problems

After upgrading my O.S through daybreak and managing to solve the issue where games would not install, something then got corrupted and I had to totally re do my SD card.

Then after downloading the SD card setup from SDsetup.com I could not boot Atmosphere,Not sure why the SD setup from SD setup.com does not work, I've tried various downloads with different options but it also seems to be an out of date version it supplies, is there another source for pre configured SD card setups?

Iwas told to make sure the newest versions of hekate and Atmosphere where being used, after going through everything, the only setup I can get to boot is one where I manually downloaded hekate and atmosphere from github and believe I have the newest versions installed.

So now my switch will once again boot cfw but I'm back to games refusing to install!

On my switch now is Hekate 6.0.7, Atmosphere 1.6.2 on version 17.0.0 firmware.

Any ideas please


Thanks, steve

Did you copy over the newest sigpatches - https://gbatemp.net/threads/sigpatches-for-atmosphere-hekate-fss0-fusee-package3.571543/
I reccommend using newest version of DBI to install games using 17.0 FW- Google DBI installer
I also reccommend running Lockpick (renamed PickLock for 17FW) payload once to get your keys file on sd card. (Some installers need keys file on sd card.) - https://gbatemp.net/threads/lockpick_rcm-payload-official-thread.532916/post-10266016

Switch use MBR, primary partition, so as long you formatted it correct it should work fine, doesn't matter if you use Guiformat, or Rufus, most people doesn't use Rufus for the switch SD card formatting. 32 or 64 kb doesn't really matter, if you use 64kb it just mean it take up more space on the SD card.

Since 17.0.0 dropped the option to blank out your PROD_INFO. What is the best (current) way to protect my Emunand against a console ban? Because Exosphere is basically dead?

Setup DNSMitm and you be able to blank out your serial number.

Thank You SO MUCH. I already had set up DNSMITM and have 90DNS as added "protection"

I should be good right? as long i keep my emunand offline? (I am using my stock system nand (not atmosphere) for legit games and online play)

Yes you would be fine, can't go online when the serial number are blanked out, even though you are safe to use wifi.

Hi all

Bringing the switch out of basket again

Its been running on AMS 0.19.2 and using hekate 5.5.5 and on fw 11.0.1

Is there something i should think of if i want to update AMS to the latest version ?

Will the latest AMS 1.6.2 work with the fw 11.0.1 and hekate 5.5.5 or i need to upgrade it aswell ?

Guiformat didn't give me an option just formatted to 32 fat32 but Rufus changed it to MBR ok so 32 is better than 64. thanks for your help

Guiformat default format is FAT32, and allocation unit is 32678 byte so that is 32kb.

If i install a .nsp or .xci on my switch's emunand with both 90DNS and DNSMITM. Is it possible for me to get console banned? Can Nintendo track my play history while my PROD_INFO blanked out?

As long 90DNS doesn't go down and DNSMitm doesn't get disabled, you should be fine as long your serial number are blanked out and you keep your sysnand clean of pirated game.

Yes.

Thank you

What happens when you try booting CFW sysMMC or emuMMC through Hekate?

No because updating CFW is always the first step whenever updating your setup. There is no reason to not be on the latest version of CFW because all current and newer versions of CFW always support the current firmware as well as all previously released firmware versions. A newer version of CFW doesn't stop suddenly supporting older firmware versions. That would be ridiculous. Not everyone will be on the same firmware version when using CFW.
