Hacking Question Switch stuck on boot logo (only on cfw)

PurpleRidley · Feb 17, 2021

Hello, I've searched this but it seems everyone with this problem also has the same problem even on OFW. My Switch only gets stuck on the logo going into CFW.

This happened right after updating to the newest atmosphere.

I don't have custom themes, never use them. When it's stuck in the logo I've tried clicking power and it doesn't do anything.

I've used this SD card without any problem for over a year now.

I've removed my old atmosphere folder and put a new clean atmosphere folder and it gets past the boot logo now. But all my games look like they need to be reinstalled. I tried this but I can't get access to goldleaf. When I go in the homebrew area, not in Applet Mode I can't click goldleaf, the switch just kind of crashes and I have to restart it.

Also, see my file folders, I don't know if everything is normal.

Any ideas? Thank you!

1 - Format SD card to FAT32
2 - Fresh install of Atmosphere files on SD card. - https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases
3 - Get and put Correct Sigpatches in "atmosphere" folder - https://github.com/ITotalJustice/patches/releases
4 - (optional) Get Tinwoo or Goldleaf and place inside "switch" folder - https://github.com/XorTroll/Goldleaf/releases
5 - Boot into Hekate menu, select "Payloads", then select "Fusee-Primary"
Good Luck and Have fun!
