FW 16 latest atmosphere. With all according latest files downloaded today, saltynx, status monitor, nxfps, OVLmenu.ovl that is floating around the forum.

So initially everything seems okay. You can select FPS in status monitor go back out and it shows in game. Problem occurs when going back in status monitor the menu doesn't show. and as soon as you press home button your switch console soft locks.... Anything you do on the touch screen doesnt work, nor buttons. And screen is stuck on your homescreen. (this doesn't happen always if i remember correctly with every game. but it seems to happen with metroid dread 2.1 ( i use the 900p and lod exefs mod for metroid) with mario kart it also happens (latest update) (only 2 games i tested)
Metroid seems to happen quicker maybe then mariokart, or maybe it doesn't matter at all.

Anyways when the console is in sort of a soft lock state. I keep press power button and the menu pops(this is the only part where the console is responsive) I choose restart and have to wait literally like 4 or 5 minutes before my console has restarted.

Any idea what is causing this and as to fix?

If it boot fine without the sysmodule then the issue is the sysmodule, so you have to figure out what is causing your problem by going one by one seeing what causing the problem.

Pull out all the Sysmodules and then reintroduce them one at a time until it crashes again. Once you can consistently replicate in isolation the Dev who built that module should be able to assist.

these are working great:
fpslocker
reversenx-rt
fizeau

Since Atmosphere 1.5.0 there is less space for sysmodules available, so if you had many installed, you should reconsider deleting some.

This is why I'm not updating to 16.0.0 so I can stick with pre 1.5.0 atmosphere :P

One person had exactly the same issue and after wiping whole contents folder and pasting only tesla and SaltyNX sysmodules everything is now fine.

I find out syshidplus was the softlock problem. but now i have a different problem, i move out all exefs and contents folder and i still crash when going in status monitor(though no softlock this time)
I try update, saltynx,fpslocker,nxfps,teslamenu but no good... :(
It seems to behave differently across games. for example mario kart 8 i cant get it to crash so far. but with Kao the kangaroo constant crashing

no, I also started to have problem docked when activating overlays. and Saltynx was giving me problems with DK Country. At the end I removed tesla menu and all the overlays. Now I only utilize Sys-con, Sys clk, Fizeau via the hb-menu. Other stuff that requieres the tesla menu and saltynx are giving me some kind of problem.

any update or work around?
You know, since creation of this topic I have released several updates to different stuff to not only add features, but also solve many bugs.

So would you kindly at least provide what versions of each homebrew you are using to confirm that whichever bug still exists, when this happens, etc? It would so much better than just saying "me too" but by using different words.

My bad. I didn't provide the my switch status. All is up to date. I'm just getting an error during docked whenever I try to pullup sysclk using Tesla Menu.
But it's fix now when I used the Tesla Menu fork by DefenderOfHyrule.
