The Backups That Never Were
by: Dax_Fame

Once upon a time, Dax_Fame was switching to Atmosphere CFW emuMMC.
He did backups and they verified via Hekate 5.0.2 on two different SDs.
He then accidentally booted CFW on his eMMC but didn't do anything and immediately shut it down.
When he went to restore his backups they were not on either SD card, instead just empty folder.

TOO STUPID-DIDN'T READ:
While trying to setup emuMMC I booted CFW on my system and apparently don't have any backups to restore...
I didn't do a damn thing on my system other than shut it down because I realized what was going on.
Would this generate anything (like dirty logs) on my system nand to get me b&???

Q: How did you do something so stupid, you noob?
A: I don't know how to boot the emummc after I created it. I used sdsetup website as a guide but still couldn't boot. No boot config found. I chose the fusee payload and it booted my sysnand.

Thank you, anyone in advance


BONUS:

When I try to run another backup it says one already exists... I'm so confused. One SD is empty, the other has this (attached image) in it.
Restore>partitions directories are empty

Thanks.. the only thing concerning me now is it says I should have 3 files, not 17... but it is for a different version. Not even sure if I should attempt.

DAMN I so badly want to stop using SX OS but this is giving me a headache, especially since I might've dirtied my logs from that CFW boot, like an idiot

They say to use those 3 files becuase they contain everything but there should be more files when you make your backup so your backup looks good

    huh that's cool, never seen those

    I could still always use my old android phone as a mp3 player but I get lost in the music and miss calls that way

    Thanks for the like and then taking it away
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It's been discontinued but you can find em second hand. It's the FiiO model K1.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ nice. I've been using my BTR5 pretty much daily, got it in late 2020. Mostly use it as a desktop DAC though and the battery has already swelled up in it once, so I had to replace it. Some day I gotta grab a proper desktop DAC that doesn't have a battery lol

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @K3Nv3, Yeah, cheap and nasty earbuds don't deliver the best mids, they end up sounding really muddy.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, I got mine around 2022 (iirc) and it was brand new, never opened, and for £15 too compared to paying nearly £30 elsewhere.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, That sucks when the battery already begins to swell up. You considering on a desktop replacement, and if so, which one?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ damn 15 is shockingly cheap for that. Even 30 feels like a good price just given what a bunch of other FiiO stuff costs. Granted, not familiar with what those were originally selling for, so who knows lol

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    As far as a replacement for my BTR5, I don't really have my eyes set on anything specific yet but it'll likely be from either Fiio or Schiit Audio.

  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Better than tree fiddy
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, Originally when it came out, they sold for around $40 USD according to FiiO's news bulletin. https://www.fiio.com/newsinfo/54677.html

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, I would prefer FiiO as the better brand for a USB DAC.

  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I feel like headphones reached a peak even ones from ten years ago sound better than new ones
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @K3Nv3, all depends how much money you wanna spend. I had skullcandy headphones and shit way back when but I never liked anything as much as the headphones (and earbuds) I use nowadays

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ yeah fwiw I've been quite happy with my FiiO BTR5 so I don't have any specific reason to not a FiiO again. Just gotta see what's available and how much I'm trying to spend lol

    O GOD I see @BigOnYa
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    I have the FiiO X1-ii, and love what it does, but the battery life is kinda ass and the sluggish, unresponsive menu makes me regret my purchase a little.
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    has anyone here played botw randomizer for switch?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    (not the wii u version, specifically the switch version)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Frankly not. That's like a 'cheat engine' for BoTW, right?
