There are no "special payloads" or alternative versions of Atmosphere. If you're that paranoid about bricking the console, just backup your eMMC using Hekate before you ever launch Atmosphere. Also configurations are not console-specific; they can be used on any Switch.
I tried launching the payload, I pasted everything from the "justinsertthisstuff" Package to the root and launched. First it showed me an error ans now the hekate menu. Should I try to launch it?
I've never heard of that and combined that with the fact that its already giving you issues, I would recommend avoiding using it. Delete anything you downloaded from it as well as anything you put on your SD card and start fresh by following this guide.
thanks a Lot for your help!
OLED? Looks like this issue: https://gbatemp.net/threads/picofly...init-emmc-but-with-hwfly-working-fine.633167/
No, AutoRCM has no effect on sleep mode or the charge rate of the battery. AutoRCM only affects the ability of the console to normally boot up which instead causes it boot into RCM instead of OFW.
You can try using Avatool
Uhhhh, okay, wow. You do realize that you're not supposed to factory reset the Switch while you have ANYTHING customized system-wise on it, right? This includes anything that modifies system titles or packages (such as the home menu or chat blacklist), including themes among other things. You'll need to remake a new emunand (I assume that's where your error is, since you said sysnand works) and lose all your data, as it is likely that something is completely borked in your emunand. The Nintendo support site says that the most likely fix is to completely power cycle the Switch, which means having your jig handy and disabling AutoRCM. If that doesn't work, then your only option is indeed to make a new emunand.
Thanks for the reply.
Oh, I see. Well, the error you're getting is saying that it cannot upload one or more save files to the cloud, likely because one or more save files has the 'file is ready for archiving' option disabled (assuming you're on Windows), which can be remedied by right-clicking on the affected file and under 'Attributes', clicking 'Advanced' and toggling the option. The problem lies in how you're supposed to restore the save(s) without being able to boot your Switch... If you didn't mess with save data, then the only other option is that somehow your emunand is corrupted and it cannot even read your savedata, not just unable to upload it...
Not really for hardmodding. For softmodding, there's https://switch.hacks.guide/ (this is an old link, but still works and redirects to the proper page, so I'll continue to use it until it is discontinued)
That will not work because digitally installed games require a ticket in order to be launched and that ticket is stored within the internal memory. Your best is to dump the game from one Switch then install on another.
