Hacking Homebrew Switch wont Turn On Atmosphere

[MarkBaker]

Atmosphere 1.3.0/FW 14.0
From: https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases/tag/1.3.0

Erista Switch
Auto RCM enabled
I dont use hetake

I cant turn my switch on withouth using SXTools app from my android phone.

Is there anyway to configure Atmosphere to allow me to turn on my switch without the phone app?

Unless you have a built-in payload injector or an Xcuter mod chip, then you will always need to inject a payload when you do a cold boot (that is booting the Switch after it has been completely shut off).

If you combine Hekate with Atmosphere, I think you can reboot to Hekate and select emuMMC/CFW/OFW again.
Usually there is no reason to turn off the Switch.
It draw 2~4% battery per day so if you charge it once a week, you should be able to use it continously.

Only way to do that without additional external stuff would be to build a payload injector directly into your switch, but I would just go for leaving it in stand by.

Alternative would be if your switch has no burned fuses and came with a pretty low FW (I believe it was max 4.1) using pegaswitch and setting up an emunand so that you can boot to the emunand through hekate for example.

If you’re decent with electronics, check my signature block. There are links to Trinket M0 project which is a cheap internal injector chip for V1 switches.
