Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

[BaamAlex]

This alone not working, i Need to Update the trinketm0 First , now it work With 9. Beta

That's the way to update the trinket. There is no other way.

 

[Nullinga]

i update to this first " adafruit-circuitpython-trinket_m0-de_DE-8.1.0 "
maybe my bootloader to old

the way you tell me not working ... i try all

 

[BaamAlex]

Dude...i have no idea what you're doing. Just flash the files from the GitHub repo. That's all.

 

[Nullinga]

Just flash the files from the GitHub repo

not working i try it but its need a new Bootloader first !! and not only put files on it ! Bullshit
when you read here in GBA you see other have same Problem

 

[BaamAlex]

Erm...no? You're the only one lol

I have a question
When I purchased the 1st generation(KAK10000) secondhand, RCM X86 was installed.
When pressing Volume + and Power keys without a memory card
Switchboot v1.4.3 - Hekate CTCaer v5.0.1 is show.
Can I now update SWITCHBOOT_UF2?
Or can I just update fusee _UF2?
I still don't know the difference between the two.

and I first time to try update.. push the reset twice is ryt?

No point of updating it, just rename hekate as payload.bin

No point of updating it, just rename hekate as payload.bin

thank you for your support
but I have two problem
first is cannot detect payload.bin in root folder
so, go to boot option -> browser to root -> I selected payload.bin.
is it correct method?
second is after boot to atmosphere with emunand
when I click reboot, screen is black..
so, I push power button more than 10 sec
Is this normal?
Is it because my system or switchboot.uf is an old version?
Or, I wonder if installing fusee.suite will improve things.
could you help me?

Set the uf2 version to autoboot the payload.bin so you don't need to use the uf2 version. I never updated my uf2.

Hello everyone, I bought a switch and it comes with the RCM-X86 chip, the blue LED turns on, but when I turn on the switch by pressing volume + and power it does nothing, the screen remains black and nothing appears on the screen from the switch but the computer recognizes it in RCM mode, is the chip working well? I have to repair the SD reader so I cannot test if putting the files in the SD would cause a menu to appear when starting the switch with the key combination. The joy con right does not detect it, I don't know if it could be because the chip is installed incorrectly, but since it does not detect the controller I cannot start the console configuration, is there a way to avoid the joy con screen. I have also read something about pressing the reset button to enter a mode and see the files to update it, I don't have any button.

First, do you have a charger or other USB cable plugged in while booting? You have to have nothing plugged in, otherwise the chip won't be able to push the payload and you'll be stuck in RCM.

No SD access might make things tricky depending what payload the chip is trying to push. Hekate would start in text only mode if the Nyx files weren't present on the SD card, idk if that would behave the same if it couldn't access the card at all but I'm guessing it would at least display something, it's very thoroughly designed.
If the chip just has a forwarding payload that's supposed to load something generic like payload.bin from the SD card then it might just get stuck.

Honestly you might be better off getting the card reader repair done first so it's easier to diagnose the chip situation.

Also someone else might be able to tell you what payload comes supplied on that chip, and how to get it into file flashing mode.

Ok, thank you very much, I will do that, do you know if the entire CFW process can be done without having the initial configuration of the switch or some way to skip the screen where it asks to connect the joy cons to continue with the configuration of the switch.

There is a payload on the chip if the chip is wired correctly and programmed correct it should boot into the uf2 payload on the chip.

I have asked the person who sold it to me and he says that when the files are on the SD that it starts up fine, I will wait for them to put the connector in and I will try.

Well that doesn't fix your problem, the payload on the chip doesn't require a SD card, so if the chip doesn't work correctly, it won't boot file off the SD.

I will first try to see if it is true that it loads the files like this without needing a computer, if they don't load I will have to update the chip files, but from what I have read it has to have a reset button and I don't see it.

You need a magnet if it doesn't have reset button, some of the rcm-x86 doesn't have reset button.

A magnet isn't needed...

Just connect reset and gnd twice with some metallic stuff. Same as a double mouse click.
