Hacking Switchroot Android 10 released

[lordelan]

So if I already have a 512gb SD card that's got a ton of switch games on it, how much of a pain will it be to add a partition for android using the free space without having to delete and reinstall everything? If I create a partition will it wipe my SD card?

There are tools on PC to repartition without data loss.

@bylaws By choosing the Android TV image, does it become a Chromecast too to which I can cast stuff from my phone when the Switch is docked?

have you tried it? does chromecast "server" work?

No it does not. He stated so in the xda thread so I didn't bother to even try it.

I believe Hekate can partition the SD card itself for you.

Is there any way to enable USB to PC connections?
I enabled USB Debugging in dev options but connecting it to a PC does nothing but charging.

Yes you can but I would not. If you really want to, join switchroot discord

Actually makes me wonder if android would run faster using a created emummc partition from the sd card to install it to.
I wouldnt install either to the actual nand, because you don’t know what nintendo check up on.

Well for me it doesn't matter as this is my hacked banned switch

How to delete android and the allocated partition for Android on my SD card without formating?

I tried, it's fun but emulation is very experimental and even Android games don't run well so I don't need

Also is fat32 slower than exFat in term of game charging?
