Hi,

I'm having issues with my switch battery. It drains from 100% to 1% in about 15 min and stays at 1% for a long time.

I'm on the following FW:

11.0.0
AMS M.18.1
I'm using AutoRCM and do the following to get into CFW:

  1. Inject Hekate 5.5.4 (using TegraRCM)
  2. Launch fusee-primary.bin (from hekate)
I have seen some other suggestions (such as the attached image), but I'm still unsure of the exact process I should be following.

This is what I have tried:

  1. Leave Switch on home screen until black screen shows up with red battery saying charge needed
  2. Hold power button for 25 seconds (to power off)
  3. Charge until 100% (checking by injecting hekate payload)
  4. Once at 100% I launch the fusee-primary.bin using hekate
  5. Repeat the process

I have done this twice and it still drains fast and stays at 1%. I also unplugged the battery (and re-plugged it).

Any suggestions?

Had the same issue and also the time consuming charge hasn't helped me either.

I think I have runned this battery fix payload which resented the gauge correctly : https://wiidatabase.de/switch-downloads/hacks/fusee-linux-battery-fix/

Don't know exactly but I think my fusee suite trinket also has an option to directly run this.

Thanks! I tried it out though (launched the payload through TegraRCM) and the battery is still draining fast.

Any other options?

    I just dislike that they don't let me choose the voices before the game starts. Happened with botw as well, had to change to japanese and restart.

    Same way you can choose Gerald's gender.
