Hello!
I'm updating this first part to make this package more clear.
This is entirely based on Atmosphere, and is NOT a custom firmware in itself, the way I worded the title was not the best, and I apologise for any confusion. This is an All In One package aimed for ease of use for people who are lazy, or new to the scene.
This is purely to "fill the Vöid" of Kosmos, to create a quick, easy, and "noob" proof set up for anyone who wants to install custom firmware quick and easy.
Is this needed? No, not really, then why did I do it? A fun little project.
All credit goes to the respective developers of anything and everything used in this pack.
This is a heavily a work in progress, so if you have anything you'd like added, removed, or any suggestions at all, please let me know.
You can message me on here, or message me on Discord at Synecdoche#2077

THANK YOU FOR 1,700 DOWNLOADS!
MAKE A NAND BACKUP IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY
HBG SHOP DOES NOT COME INSTALLED WITH THIS PACK, THE HBG EDITION JUST ALLOWS YOU TO USE HBG WITH IT. PLEASE FIND A DOWNLOAD ELSEWHERE.
DISCLAIMER
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A NAND BACKUP THROUGH HEKATE OR ANY OTHER WAY YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE USING.
NOTHING SHOULD BREAK USING THIS PACK, BUT IT'S ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE ONE ANYWAY TO BE SAFE.

- HBG version Boots through Hekate using Fusee-Primary, making it HGB ready.

HBG:Launches how it did previously, by chainloading Fusee Primary.
- Please note, this makes launching Atmosphere much slower.
None HBG:Boots using Fusee Secondary, making load times a lot faster.
- This means that HBG Shop does NOT work with this version.
- This boots much faster than the HBG version due to using fss0.
It wont boot, it's only a black screen?From what I've been told by various people, this seems to be fixed by a completely fresh install and formatting to FAT32. How this works is beyond me because it's never happened to myself nor many people.
I keep getting a fatal error on boot?Try to fix archive bits through Hekate, this should never be needed but always seems to fix it.
What is Vöid?Vöid is an all-in-one custom firmware for the Nintendo Switch based on Atmosphere, in the same kin as Kosmos, entirely focussing on ease of use for anyone that wants to set up custom firmware on their Nintendo Switch without much effort.
Why "Vöid"?Atmosphere is named after the layer of gasses around the world, and Kosmos is named after, well, the Cosmos. Both astronomical in nature, Vöid is named from the emptiness of space, and to "fill the void" of Kosmos. The umlaut is just because I liked it.
You said Incognito isn't known to be safe, what else can I do to protect myself?First of all, do not install pirated games and run them on your account and then connect to the internet. That is a sure way to get banned. If you do want to connect to the internet and use applications such as Homebrew Appstore, then I'd highly recommend 90DNS
Is there a Vöid Discord?Not at the moment, as I don't see a need for one, but if people are interested I'd happily make one.
Does HBG Shop work with this?HBG Shop will only work on the HBG version of Vöid.
Goldleaf is incredible for title management but can be a bit broken at times for installing games. This is where Awoo comes in, as it works the majority of the time without hassle.
Why Awoo and Goldleaf? Isn't one enough?
What is the .get folder?The .get folder is the folder used by HB Appstore to show what is installed, what version, etc.
1.0.1:
- Incognito was disabled for sysNAND to allow people to play their legit games online. emuNAND is still enabled by default.
1.0.2:
- Added NS-USBloader to PC tools to allow people to install their games via PC
1.1:
- Added Hekate properly to the zip, as I very stupidly uploaded an outdated zip folder without Hekate present.
1.1.1:
- Added Hekate config files.
2.0:
- Sigpatches are now included by default
- Added a boot logo, because why not.
- Added sys-con
- Added Gamecard Installer
- Fixed a few boot issues I encounter and assumed others did too, this now boots correctly.
- Tidied up the Switch folder to include all homebrew provided
2.1:
- Cleaned up the /switch/ folder once again, to remove duplicates.
- Included the Appstore files, so the Appstore now knows what is installed.
- These are in /switch/.get
- lockpick_rcm and TegraExplorer payloads are now included in the SD Card folder.
- Edizon config folder is now present.
- Overlays for Tesla are now present (Not sure why these got removed).
2.1.1:
- Another cleanup
- Sigpatch Installer was added for easier sigpatch updating.
3.0:
- All Homebrew apps updated
- Added the following:
- VGEdit
- Emuiibo
- Amiigo
- NX Theme Injecter
- Status Monitor Overlay
- SYS Tune Overlay
- Updated Bootlogo, however, due to chainloading it doesn't work at the moment but added it anyway. But it looks nicer regardless.
- Added a Vöid Lite, which does not include the Payloads and PC Tools
- HB Appstore cache update and shows what you have installed.
- General clean up, so with a fresh install of Vöid you will no longer get multiple of the same versions of Homebrew Apps.
NOT TESTED
- Hekate now boots by chainloading Fusee Primary, so HGB Shop should work, please let me know if this isn't the case as the website is down and I couldn't test it.
3.1:
- Sigpatches updated and verifies working, again. Successfully installed and ran a game without issue.
- Updated Awaoo Installer to 1.3.3.
3.2:
- Removed boot wait as the boot logo doesn't currently work.
- Finally found an HBG Shop download to test, and HBG DOES now work.
- As always, HBG will not come included.
- Added Appstore Workbench to the PC Folder of Vöid NX.
- Something about system stability.
4.0:
- Two options of both Vöid and Vöid Lite are available. One Patched with Sigpatches, one without.
4.5:
- Updated to Atmosphere 13.0
- Updated Hekate to 5.3.0
4.6:
- Updated Sigpatches to newest release for Atmosphere 13.0
- Removed the following to make Vöid Lite even Lighter for a bog-standard install. Removing everything I don't feel is needed to get you up and running with a smaller installation.
- Amiigo
- FTPD
- Switch Theme Installer
- Switch Cheat Updater
- N-Xplorer
- Amiigo Overlay
- Sys-Tune Overlay
- Updated VG Edit to the latest release.
5.0:
- No more unpatched versions, just Normal and HBG Versions.
Normal:
- Boots using Fusee Secondary, making load times a lot faster.
- This means that HBG Shop does NOT work with this version.
- This boots much faster than the HBG version due to using fss0.
- Names been changed to sysVOID and emuVOID, because why not?
- Added payload launcher homebrew app from suchmememanyskill to allow you to launch into Hekate if needed. Thanks to @MSco for the suggestion.
- Up to date, Hekate sigpatches included.
- Added Hekate and Fusee Primary to the payloads folder, for launching with Payload Launcher and if you want to chainload yourself using either version.
HBG:
- Launches how it did previously, by chainloading Fusee Primary.
- Please note, this makes launching Atmosphere much slower.
- Names been changed to sysVOID and emuVOID, because why not?
