Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[RioStride]

I am creating a library project for windows as a jack of all trades; however, I can't figure out how to make the json index.tfl to show up in tinfoil. The only way for me to get it to show up is if the file name is [titleID].extension otherwise nothing shows up. I am hoping I may have some help as to what I am doing wrong. I rather keep the user's file name preference instead of changing it to just bracketed title id (even if it is better for keeping duplicates down).

//nothing shows up
"files":[
  {"url":"SomeGame[someID].extension", ...
]

//nothing shows up
"files":[
  {"url":"http://someurl/SomeGame[someID].extension", ...
]


//This works
"files":[
  {"url":"[someID].extension", ...
]

I tried to encode the uri but that made it not even show up on tinfoil... I am thinking my app is cursed now.
I am using Tinfoil 20.
Am I using the correct method or are there any other methods I can use to post the data for tinfoil to read.

hi everyone!
i'm ripping my hair out here and i'm having an issue that no one seems to be able to help me with. i'm a macos user with a modded chip oled switch. no matter what i do, including updating or reinstalling all my files i can not get OFW/Stock/sys cfw to boot. emummc boots fine, but ofw and the rest do not boot, it shows 'nintendo' or the launch screen and then just black. i have to do a 15 sec restart after to the homepage. i have no idea how to fix this. i'm at a point where i might just give up and sell my modded nintendo. any help is appreciated, thank you.

No NAND backup?

No NAND backup?

i made a backup of when i first got my modded nintendo (2 days ago) i don't know if its a NAND but it's titled '101b1c21' - i'm a super newb at this stuff so i may not understand. this issue has occurred from the very beginning and i never once got my sys cfw/stock working so idk if restoring would do anything

If you got a full NAND backup boot0/boot1 and the rawnand, then do a backup of current boot0/boot1 and rawnand and try to restore the backup you made few days ago.

It might be a hardware issue with modchip install. Inadequate resistor values can prevent OFW from booting.

Your screenshot shows burnt eFuses matching firmware 20.x, maybe your OFW is on an earlier version? But I don't see how that could happen if you never booted OFW or SysCFW.

Is there a native homebrew version of plex?
I meant native to be ran in horizon / hbmenu, not by using android

I've probably spent more hours setting up consoles and emulators than actually playing games. Between updating, tinkering, hacking, curating the perfect library, configuring settings, patching ROMs, and mapping controllers—it's been a full-time hobby in itself.

Friendly reminder, folks: don't forget to play your games. The setup is fun, but the magic is in the gameplay

ONLY UPDATE YOUR CONSOLE TO 21.x.x IF ALL THE HOMEBREW YOU USE IS UPGRADED

Sometimes you need to upgrade your console, upgrade the firmware or upgrade Atmosphère, using the @l7777 's guide (https://gbatemp.net/threads/updating-hekate-atmosphere-and-hos.631739/) as base I hope to create a list of necessary steps to successful upgrade your console.

This guide uses Hekate, if you don't want to use Hekate skip the steps about it. You may loose some features.

Thanks for the PSA. This is a trap that many of us fell into. But I'm doing better nowadays. Anyway, as long as someone is being entertained, whether hacking or playing, the goal is still attained.

hello everyone, i'm currently trying to figure out why pokemon legends arceus repeatedly throws a "checking software information" and then an error at me whenever i try to start it up. i assume it wants some sort of internet access (i'm on atmosphere emummc with nintendo servers blocked) and i've tried everything i possibly can to bypass it doing this, including installing sys-patch, booting with fusee, and inserting 'kip1patch=nosigchk' into hekate_ipl.ini. atmosphere, hekate, and my system firmware are all up-to-date so i really have no clue what i'm missing unless it's something extremely obvious. any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

I have an exclamation mark on my profile and can't access it from the main menu. How do I go about fixing this? I guess I could unlink my nintendo account with goldleaf and use linkalho after that, but I was wondering if there's a better/easier way. Thanks!

nevermind, somehow got it to work by installing the game from a different directory? i have no clue how or why it worked when i tried it that way but at least it worked...

When installing a mod using ultrahand, mod alchemist. Do you activate both exeFS patches and contents mod or just choose one graphics mod and apply?

I plan on getting a Switch 2 soon, but I want to get my saves from EmuMMC to SysMMC.
I dumped my BOTW cartridge onto my EmuMMC to play digitally, I want to move my saves and put it into my SysMMC, but I have BOTW on my emuMMC digitally, meanwhile my SysMMC, physically.
I have tried JKSV, and Checkpoint, yet nothing worked, I still get my save data from 2020, which is the data I do not want.
I tried importing saves from emuMMC/RAW1/Nintendo/saves, and putting it on my main Nintendo folder on the root of my SD Card, with no luck.

Hello
I have issue with my OLED switch,whenever it died/turned off it won't turn back on. It was blinking purple for about 1 minute, then red light, then died. So I bring it to a service store. He just "inject" it and it turns on (not sure the term is correct). So, I can't turn off my switch or I will need to bring it to service store again to turn it back on.

The guy did offer to replace the whole chip, and put a new one, but it is very expensive. So that's not an option for me at this moment.

if anyone can enlighten me, what did he actually do? Cause I read here that it is not possible to inject payload using tegra etc to OLED switch because it is patched.
So how does he turns it back on without re-soldering anything?

(he doesn't want to tinker with the chip, because he is not the one who mod it.)

No. With a chip it doesn't matter if your Switch is patched.
