THANK YOU. Recently modded my unpatched switch and so many videos were either outdated or just didn’t make any sense. This was perfect and worked exactly how it was supposed to.
Reporting back. Writing this comment from my switch, via android. I feel that this Android YT app looks crisp AF, compared to the switch one. Thanks again. Much love from Mexico 🌮
Amazing tutorial! 💪 I just have one question. Since the card is formatted as fat32, does that mean there will be a limit to the size individual files can be when moving them back to the sd card? I have files that are way more than 4gb on it and was wondering if there would be a workaround for this.
Hiya! Quick question. Updated atmosphere to latest update and firmware to 17.0.0. Was working fine. Tried and successfully installed android out of curiosity. Now I’m getting error: Unknown pkg1 version. HOS version not supported or emmMMC corrupt. Formatted sd and but the backup back in but still the same. Any ideas? Thanks
hi. thx for the tutorial. Is Hos32 a hidden partition right? but is atmosphere installing the games on HOS32 ? or emunand partition? because i reserved a lot of space to HOS32 assuming it would be used by atmosphere while playing/installing on emunand
Good evening. Does everything you do within android save on this device? I want to run launch box and android standalone emulators. Also, should I make the partition bigger to accommodate my roms? Any insight would be greatly appreciated
Tablet link is 404 not found. I don’t know about the rest of the links. Since this is the first thing I need and can’t get I’m assuming the rest are dead too.
yeah you can play normal games by shutting doing android and rebooting the nintendo , it will automtically go back into switch firmware, if you wanna go back into android u will have to use hakete
Hey I got a question when I press reboot system it send me back to the keep read only page the starter page what instead of hi there starter page what should I do
@@KlutchxGaming please do. I was interested and the instructions seem rather simple but saw some comments with issues and one with a bricked switch so an up to date guide would be great as i love my switch and really would like to keep it safe. I'll wait for the new video!
2:34 Even though I had a 512 GB sd card that still had a lot of storage left, I was too lazy to wait for it to copy to my pc, so I just used another sd card. The sd card with the emunand has 302GB worth of files, LOL
if i have a spare sd card can i install android to that but can i ask how do i go back to Atmosphere and visa versa? Still want to use switch as switch to play games can i unplug the sd card and plug my Atmosphere sd card and in will it be still their to load Atmosphere and stock switch?
I have followed all these steps however, instead of booting into twrp after selecting flash android it boots straight into lineage and says 'Coreboot not allowed Mariko!' any solutions?
Thanks for this. When you get to flashing the switch section, I assume it's flashing the sd and not the switch itself? I try never to assume these things lol
Hey, I successfully installed Android thanks to you, though the console does let me reboot to hekate, there is not even the mention of Hekate. Do you know how I can do just like you, reboot to choose my OS ?
any reason after i partition. When i return to the partition screen it looks UN-partitioned like yours does in the video? 8:02 after your partition. It looks UN-partitioned, no?
I’ve tried this several time wiping my card and restarting running into the same problem every time I try to boot android it just boots me back into twrp what should do?
Do you think running minecraft android edition would run semi playable? Ik theres minecraft for switch but this switch has been banned since the day one exploit.
Hello. First of all, EXCELLENT video. Everything worked just fine for me except that the play store isn't the when I start Android. I've flashed gapps right after lineage and Play Store doesn't show. Tried to flash it again after and it's still not there. Any thoughts? Thank you for the good work.
What if I used my existing micro sd card with emummc with CFW partitions, can I still be able to partition for the Android thru hekate without any issues? I'm on 14.1.1 and AMS 1.3.2 btw.
once it finds the kernel files and asks to flash android, it boots straight back into hekate and then the files in the switchroot > install folder are completely gone and no matter how many times i back it up it keeps happening.
Hi, for the sd card partitionning part, if I follow your instructions (backing up the sd card files), will my EmuMMC files be lost ? (I followed NH Server guide)
@@Phallica-js7ht I did? In other comments you keep telling people nothing works so maybe stop commenting since you don't know what you're talking about :)
Question. I recently received a switch oled for Christmas and I wanted to run android so I can install Netflix and other apps. Can you send me the most recent video on how to install android from the beginning with a brand new Switch. Be advised I'm not that much of an computer guy.
Now, when i flash this, if i turn it off or the battery dies, am i going to have to inject the payload again? Or not? And is there/are there any ways around that?
@@KlutchxGaming I'm new at flashing switches, ive done many android phones. However, is there anything out that'll turn the switch OLED into Android, or even possibly duel boot systems?
@@L0WEREASTSIDE you can't mod the OLED switch without a hard mod aka modchip which is illegal and hard to find nowadays. So unfortunately you can only do it with V1 unpatched switch models

Great video
You explained everything so good

NICE EXPLAIN! Now I can use android on switch
This makes the switch the best android tablet that exists and its so damn cool
Nah.
Meh it’s fake

Thank you for your help 😊
Whenever I install lineage and gapp, it says the installations failed :(
same, have you found a solution?
Thanks I was looking to try parappa 1,2 and UJL

yes it does
But if I want to come back to normal nintendo Switch, how can I do It?
This is amazing! If only it could make calls now...
You probably could try getting a switch mic!
Google voice + Bluetooth mic
If only something existed that you could use for phone calls...say....a phone?
You can with VOIP.
Tablet link is 404 not found. I don’t know about the rest of the links. Since this is the first thing I need and can’t get I’m assuming the rest are dead too.
Good tutorial nice guy
if u do this can u still toggle the default switch os?
This is Perfect.....Thank You
great video but can you go back to the normal switch mode?
yes there is the option to just hold the power button and shut down then power it on like normal
Everything works great except for the wifi, whenever i try to connect to the wifi it just tells me that it saved and doesn't even connect, any help?
Thank you so much Klutch
i wanna ask, so what if i don't want to use the android os in my switch anymore, how do i change back into the old OFW switch OS?
will you still be able to play swith games, if so how?
yeah you can play normal games by shutting doing android and rebooting the nintendo , it will automtically go back into switch firmware, if you wanna go back into android u will have to use hakete
yes just go into bootloader and load switch
Do you have to inject payload everytime you want to go to hekate menu?
Yes. Of course you have to.
Does transferring files over USB while in Android work for you? Can't seem to get it to work, nothing pops up on my PC.
No but you can plug an external device in or FTP.
This works on Switch Lite, right? Just wondering. Probably, but just wondering. Right? So yeah? No? Is it?
well is your switch jailbroken? if not no
if you've somehow already figured out how to get cfw on that thing then this should be easy short answer no long answer yes
Does all this still work ? Like all the links. I’m scared but will try it if it’s up n running. Great vid. Instant sub
Some are having trouble with play store. I'll see if I can update any links if they're outdated this week
@@KlutchxGaming I appreciate it very much. I will try to install asap.

i found that as well, what I did was I went to the website linked, went to the download part of the site linked, and found the icosa file there
@@flatbreadsub sorry but exactly which link?
the downloads for android 10 have been removed on the switch root forum where else can i find them?

Yes. All settings are saved in the microsd card only. You can switch them up anytime.
Clutch, Klutch!
I have followed all these steps however, instead of booting into twrp after selecting flash android it boots straight into lineage and says 'Coreboot not allowed Mariko!' any solutions?
Me too.
I hope anyone has an answer for this
Thank you 😊
Everything worked, except the open gapps did not install and kept failing. It boots into an andriod lookalike, but no google apps
Is there anyway to not have it auto boot into android? I mean holding volume key is annoying sometime when hekate boot too fast.
Thanks for this. When you get to flashing the switch section, I assume it's flashing the sd and not the switch itself? I try never to assume these things lol
My Switch won’t connect to the internet when I’m in the Android OS. Anyone else having this issue?
Hey, I successfully installed Android thanks to you, though the console does let me reboot to hekate, there is not even the mention of Hekate. Do you know how I can do just like you, reboot to choose my OS ?
How you figured it out yet?
any reason after i partition. When i return to the partition screen it looks UN-partitioned like yours does in the video? 8:02 after your partition. It looks UN-partitioned, no?
What was the use of dumping joycons if you didn't do anything with the dump?
where i can find the icosa files
Can i switch to android/nintendo without doing the entire process again?
I’ve tried this several time wiping my card and restarting running into the same problem every time I try to boot android it just boots me back into twrp what should do?
When you move your backup back to the formatted sd card how do you use the games you once had?
yes
Do you think running minecraft android edition would run semi playable? Ik theres minecraft for switch but this switch has been banned since the day one exploit.
Can we still play games with the card slot games of the Nintendo switch games?
Of course.
@@Phallica-js7ht I think he means running them on Android lol
@@User_1795 In that case the answer should be fairly obvious to anybody with a brain.

Can you download it off google or something
Make sure you have the correct Gapps for ATV or Tablet. I made that same mistake.
What if I used my existing micro sd card with emummc with CFW partitions, can I still be able to partition for the Android thru hekate without any issues? I'm on 14.1.1 and AMS 1.3.2 btw.
Looks like you can you just have to repartition the Both android and emummc then re add CFW files.
@@Qeality3 and that's where my problem is, where my emuMMC now is about 800GB 😭
@@shippernessity lmao. Wait 2 days to copy it over to your pc or buy a new sd for android
@@unknow5478 lol, good thing I have a spare micro sd, I think that's the best way instead.
Yo I have to say Nintendo switch as you in this video
when I put my sd card back in the switch the option to flash android is greyed out for me
All good here, but the google play store is not available. Any tips on how to get it?
So, you can still load into the normal switch interface and play switch games?
its quite confusing but great work man
Wait. So all of the os is not affecting the switch system itself?
My switch keeps freezing and I can't get pass the setup, is my SD card too slow?
once it finds the kernel files and asks to flash android, it boots straight back into hekate and then the files in the switchroot > install folder are completely gone and no matter how many times i back it up it keeps happening.
that same thing happens to me
Ok after I put the rcm tool in the right slot I held down the power button and the up value button the screen went black what do I do now
Do you just put the sd card in the computer and put all the files in there
thank you so much for the tutorial
if i turned off the android does the jailbreak gone
Mom this is very cool but I owe and what point can you tell us how to undo this like to just put it back on regularly
Boot into Hekate by injecting payload
IT TOOK FOUR HOURS TO PUT MY BACKUP ON MY SWITCH other than that everything went fine
link don't work =(
