I was thinking it wasn't possible but figured I'd ask anyway. I am using a controller that's connected to my PC using sys-hidplus and I leave the joycons connected to the Switch while it's docked. Is there a way to turn on the Switch from sleep mode using any homebrew app on PC?

thanks

why are you leaving the joycon on the switch when docked in the first place? you can’t even use the joycon that way

this can easily be solved by removing the joycon while you’re docking it… like the one on nintendo ads

Because half the time I'm going in the other room and using it undocked. I'd rather just grab it and go in the other room than have to attach/unattach the joycons. It's not a huge deal but also the joycons stay on while I'm using the PC controller.

I don't need to use the joycons while it's docked to play games as explained I use a controller that's attached to the PC with a homebrew app called sys-hidplus. The only thing I use the joycons for when it's docked is to turn it on/off it would just save the trouble. The home button is disabled though on sys-hidplus so even just trying to exit a game requires the joycons.

To be fair, I never remove my joycons. I use a pro (or Gulikit) controller while docked. Except for my V1 Switch, where I remove the right joycon to put it in RCM...

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?

    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
