Will tinfoil network install ever get faster?

Maybe someday.

I just downloaded Tinfoil Master and Edizon Master files from Github,put them on both the root of my Switch SD and in the Switch Folder. Both times when booting up my home-brew on SXOS in the photo album,I cant see an install option for either.

Am I missing something?

You don't install homebrew like that if you are grabbing the .NSP files. If you want to install them, you would download the .NSP versions of those homebrew however the current ones aren't legal so they are not provided on the GitHub pages.

Can my clean NAND backup help me get out of error code 2124-4007 (normal Switch ban for going online)?

Made it while I was setting up ReiNX.




What site would you recommend for downloading updates?

No, if your console is already banned, you cannot unban it with a clean NAND backup because both the backup and the console share the same certificate which is how Nintendo tracks which users to ban. If you are banned, I would highly recommend you check out this thread and submit a ban report.

And for downloading updates, I recommend using https://www.google.com/

That's not how it works. You gotta download them from the "releases" tab. the so-called "master" archive is the repository itself, not the compiled binary.

Does anyone know what the Xkit Dongle is like?:
https://www.xkit.xyz/rcmloader/
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/201...NS-Shorter-Injector-JIG-kits/32921334630.html

The main concern I have with this is that it uses super-caps and how easy it is to flash as it's vague (says it mounts as a USB drive, so I presume it's as simple as renaming the payloads and placing them on there?).

Delete the ticket with tinfoil and the software via software management.

So I think have have the release of Edizon (its downloaded and says SD). Do I just add the two files within (or the whole thing) to the root of my card or in the switch folder?

I cant seem to find Tinfoil as a release, only as a master file

Tinfoil doesn't have an official release yet; you have to check the home page for a link to a server that automatically compiles the latest commits.

Draxzelex thanks for the info the other day and the correct direction to head in.

I was having a issue with a brand new Switch from the store where it refused to sleep. It would just wake back up 5 seconds later. The system was also patched according to the list )=

I brought it back to exchange for another one and recieved a XAW1007XXX new in box.

According to the list it is marked safe to buy (=

I will re-read everything to learn what I need and try to catch up on some things.....THANKS again to everyone involved for the help, progress etc

When I try to update using ChoiDujourNX I get error 2144-0001 but cant find what it is or how to fix it please help

 

[zboubinou]

Hi guys.
I have some trouble with tinfoil, he won't install game and give this error code : 0x00234a02.
Maybe it's because i launch OFW for a moment without internet connection. A guy here think it's from there too : https://gbatemp.net/threads/tinfoil-failed-to-install-nsp.515763/
What can i do to make it right again ?
Format my sd ? Then where can i get my saves and games from my sd before formatting ?

thx

Whatever you're using doesn't give ChoiDujourNX the proper permissions to run. If you want a simple solution, just download the latest ReiNX which supplies those permissions by default.

According to this thread, that error comes as a result of SD card corruption. Saves are stored on the NAND so those won't be lost upon formatting, but any games on the SD card must either be backed up prior to formatting or reinstalled afterwards.

I am using SX OS

 

[CobraX83]

I have been doing a ton of reading and just wanted to ask a couple questions. Is the SX Pro the most recommended method? Is there a method yet to boot straight to CFW without the need of a dongle plugged in etc. If there is a up to date recommended guide on backing up nand and doing it without a SX Pro and just some more basic tools I may have please let me know. Thank you in advance!

 

[Draxzelex]

I am using SX OS

SX OS does not supply the proper permissions to run ChoiDujourNX nor does TX allow us to customize it to allow SX OS to have the proper permissions to run it. If you want to use ChoiDujourNX, you must use another CFW.

Does any other firmware work with XCI

There is no such a way to load CFW nor is there any indication on such a solution in the coming days.

You can either convert them into .NSP files with 4NXCI which all CFW currently support or use the XCI installer homebrew application to install the .XCI files directly into your console.

Ok thank you for the response. So essentially RCM is the best you can boot to for now....then you must send a payload over still. If it were shut down and started back up from a cold boot it would no longer need a jig and that is essentially needed just one time if you enable auto RCM? Thanks again for the help and just trying to figure out the best method and features. I do not mind supporting the SX Pro if need be etc.

AutoRCM removes the need for a jig while a dongle removes the need for a PC/Android/MacOS/etc. You can also use sleep mode if you don't want to resend a payload to boot into CFW.

 

[CobraX83]

Ahh ok that makes sense. I think I may go with the SX Pro but was just curious if you know of a downfall using one.....meaning is there an advantage / feature to another method that Xecutor does not support? Thank you again for the clarification.

Outside of convenience, the only feature that you can find in SX OS/Pro is raw .XCI file loading. While all other CFWs don't support raw .XCI file loading, they do support .NSP loading. There is a tool by the name of 4NXCI that can convert .XCI files into .NSP files. There is also a homebrew app that installs .XCI files for you without need of converting them. However .NSP files are arguably superior to .XCI files since you can load updates and DLC offline as .NSP files; you cannot load DLC nor updates as .XCI files.
