Hacking RELEASE Hekate with Fixed Sleep Mode!

[steven89]

@xabier dont worry i found out the hard way

So does this mean I can now put it to sleep while docked, and it'll charge still?

Yes, for 5.0.2

This works on 5.1.0 and homebrew menu does work you just need to add the new file into the atmosphere folder

I've noticed that if you let it some time sleep, the Switch won't wake up. Two times in a row, with vba running, using 4.1. I think people should know.
Also this happend to me one time: if you let the console sleep by itself (not pressing the buttom, just waiting), you won't be able to wake it up.

I just tested this on 5.1.0 it doesn't have this problem

The first, or the second thing? If it's the first, let it a long time. Like some hours xD

Well that's interesting. Usually my normal Switch games don't boot after launching homebrew games (on 5.0.2), but I just tried then and they seem to boot now. Tried Rocket League which took 10-15 seconds, followed by DK Tropical Freeze which loaded instantly.

I wonder if updating "sdfiles" had an effect?
(Edit: this seems to be confirmed on another thread)

Oh and in regards to the last few posts, had my switch In sleep mode a couple of times for a few hours and had no issues waking it up

Can you try and create a PoC with steps where this happens?
I had it a couple of hour in 5.0.2 and it works. But maybe your pattern triggers sth.

To many new advancements to keep track. Do i get this payload or hekate_ctcaer_2.3

NVM i figured it out. The Switch kicks ass so much now....

For the times that happend to me if I pit it to sleep:
1) Start vba with Pokémon emerald.
2) Play a while. Like 10 min.
3) Lock.
4) Don't take the console untill 4 or 5 hors.
5) Profit, my console just won't wake up.

The other time this happend to me when it auto-sleep, I just put it two times my self just to try it, talk a while with my gf, and it went to sleep in the block screen. I coun't wake it up from there. All this times I gave it enough time after pressing the buttom, but no chance.

I still don't get what Hekate is. What's Hekate?

Its a file (payload) that runs a CFW on the switch. Once run your switch is basically an Avenger.

/Profit

There's you can launch Homebrew and your switch games.

so it's homebrew middleman?

It's like installing the homebrew channel on the Wii

You can call it that. But really "SDFiles" from @tomGER is an early compilation of CFW atmosphere.

i hope @CTCaer you look into sleep mode problem on 3.x :- (
