Thanks a bunch for the help, started working aprenticeship at a soldering store here, customer wanted me to not only solder but to do the setup as well
Once setup, do we load to original OS and play our games normally or do we always boot manually into custom OS? Does custom OS load automatically in that case?
So does the software automatically protect you from connecting to Nintendo servers or you have to make sure you manually disconnect from wifi . I haven’t seen anything to clear on that not quite sure i understand yet … someone told me you can still connect to wifi but that Nintendo servers are blocked by some setting .
@@FixModBuildExtrathere is nothing wrong with connecting to the WiFi tho. You will not get banned and you have no connection to Nintendo’s servers. but I understand it is your preference so do what you like to do.
Yes, hats does. It stops all communication to the Nintendo’s servers and blanks your switch’s serial number. Also you don’t have access so the eshop or can update your games but you can edit exosphere.ini file and the system_settings.ini file to get back access to the eshop and update your games.
great videos you explain really very well but if I understood correctly we will never be able to enjoy our games that have to be downloaded from the internet online ? If I want to play a game online do I have to buy the cartridge or buy it on the Eshop?
When I try to launch the CDW EMUMMC I run into the following error. "Error while loading fss0 atmosphere/package3 wrong ini cfg or missing/corrupt files! Failed to launch HOS! press any key..." I have tried to relaunch and reboot and keep running into this issue. Any solution that comes to mind for this?
Redownload the hats project. If you still get the same error just use sysmmc CFW. It’s the same thing and you can play the games you bought on the OFW side
Very nice video which allowed me to get to the end of the video very easily. Many thanks. My question is...what do I need to do next lol? I have no idea where to go from here.
Actually, forget the original comment. I just replaced the Tinfoil folder with the latest Tinfoil installer, then after installing Tinfoil I can now access files via the USB C port. My Switch Lite just constantly says cant find server when trying to go online
The partition setting will that be the same if let’s say I use a 500gb sd card? Also is do I need to do this if I want to backup my game cartridges? I bought a hard modded switch with atmosphere and hb menu but the guy told me there isn’t a way unless I make the emunand in this video.. true or not? I just want to play make backup games.
hey! i just modded my switch and i was wondering how to switch back to cfw after switching to ofw? do i just restart like normal and it will boot to hekate, or will i have to go in rcm
I have not pressed normal so not sure! You Never want to be connected to the internet when using custom firmware as the big N can detect it and will ban your console.
There are ways to clone sd cards with partitions, but I always find it better to start fresh, just make sure saves are backed up etc then can also get rid of the bits that no longer use.
this is what i was gonna do now, but i couldnt find a proper tutorial online, so i just did what fixmod said and started fresh. I didnt have any open games anyway, PLayed all I wanted anyway :D
Does anyone know if there’s a max limit on sd cards for switch homebrew I did a 3ds recently and it was recommended not going over 128 cause there was image issues with custom themes and such ik 128 it’s recommended minimum for switch but I’m just wondering if there’s a point that’s deemed ‘too much’ for the switch
My Switch doesnt show any battery percentage, voltage and current stats. Neither at the charger or in battery mode. And it was fully charged when i modded it. Do you know something about my issue?
Plug it in and it will get a battery meter in the corner, hold the power button down for about 20secs, the Nintendo logo will come on then off, if you have done it right nothing will be on the screen.
im using oled hardmod chip,to anyone see this, you can set the sd partition 10GB cause the 'system' only take 4GB at least.. dont waste storage😅 and much faster just taken 1 minute something to do this..👍👍
@@keepitshort4208 yes, but make a full backup of your nand. Even if the switch is already banned, i will still advice to use emummc, so that, if emummc will mess up, there is still the sysmmc as backup
@@keepitshort4208 Then you can write all the CFW data directly to sysnand. We kinda did that anyway when switch launched. ReiNX is an old CFW thats set up to work without fake partitions, directly
Yes and its easier for installing files over 4gb BUT it is known to corrupt and crash your system so you run a bigger risk of losing everything and having to start again.
heres whats next, throw it in the trash its a slow piece of shit and small, arch linux with package suyu-bin, youre lucky i told you that much, totk with 60 fps mod at 1440 smaa and fsr super scaling

Glad it helped!
I followed the steps but when I press Emummc i see the atmosphere logo and then screen stays black. is there a fix? switch is v1 fw version 19.01
I have a switch that is hard nodded and on the screen at 1:57 but now won’t turn on. What can I do?
Pls do tutorial how install games that is last step
Done
1:55 you didn't show what to do if its not hard modded, or even what that means, what do i do with my rcm jig?
What does an rcm jig do? Isn't it usually you install chip then you set up it with sd card?
if its not hard modded you will need to put clip down right joycon rail, insert injector and hold volume up and power button to boot.
Once setup, do we load to original OS and play our games normally or do we always boot manually into custom OS? Does custom OS load automatically in that case?
If you have setup emunand, you boot official fw and play online, original games etc.
Boot to cfw to play other things
How do i put the ssd on my pc ?
when i boot into emunand, and go into settings my switch just says system update is ready, no version info
Hello when i click launch it says no main boot entries found
Should the SD Card be from san disk company or it doesn’t matter it’s work from any cd card??
As long as it is a notable SD card company
just make sure that it is fast enough
my wont proceed booting after choosing emunand it shows atmosphere logo then black screen help!!
i insert the sd card with the HATS folder it still shows me "no sd card" instead of launching Hekate
Either a bad sd card, not copied correct or there is an issue with the sd card slot

There are other ways but i never connect to wifi when on custom, only when using official.

With emunand, you can play online on the non cfw side, I just never play or connect online to the cfw side.

Amazing video. Should be on top, clearly!!! Public service!
Thanks mate
amazing video!! showed me exactly what i needed!
The partition setting will that be the same if let’s say I use a 500gb sd card?
you saved me a few hours of stuggle thanks.!
can i use a different sd card then move the stuff over to my main one when im done?
The sd cards cannot be put into another Switch once it has been in a different Switch

Yes, if you use tinfoil, when you open it with a cartridge in it will ask to back it up.
When I copy the hatspack folder into tolhe root of my sd card , certain files fails to copy , how can i fix the issue please help me .
Probably download again
hey! i just modded my switch and i was wondering how to switch back to cfw after switching to ofw? do i just restart like normal and it will boot to hekate, or will i have to go in rcm
Depends if you have a mod chip, if you do when you turn it on it boots to Hekate. if you use an rcm loaded you will need that to boot to cfw
What is the Button called "Normal" under thereboot options. And why is it not good to be connected to the Internet on the Otherside?
I have not pressed normal so not sure!
You Never want to be connected to the internet when using custom firmware as the big N can detect it and will ban your console.
@@FixModBuildExtra your whole console or just the online services?
@@leonxndr7576 Online, and updates
@@FixModBuildExtrano they won’t. hats protect you from the Nintendo servers
You can connect to the Internet with no problem. because hats blocked connection to the Nintendo servers
On telegram there is 2 download. The one you showed and the customer firmware that is larger. What to do with that one? Thank you
Yes one is fw for if you need to update offline, if not dont need to download it.
Thank you so much for this. What do i do when upgrading sd size (chip)? do I just have to run the whole process again or no?
There are ways to clone sd cards with partitions, but I always find it better to start fresh, just make sure saves are backed up etc then can also get rid of the bits that no longer use.
this is what i was gonna do now, but i couldnt find a proper tutorial online, so i just did what fixmod said and started fresh. I didnt have any open games anyway, PLayed all I wanted anyway :D
is this tutorial for v1 or v2
Works on both, just the orientation of the chips you solder slightly differ.

Is there a way to switch between modded switch and back to normal?
Yes
You need to setup emunand, that will do it
My Switch doesnt show any battery percentage, voltage and current stats. Neither at the charger or in battery mode. And it was fully charged when i modded it. Do you know something about my issue?
No sorry, not seen anything like that before?
once i switched back to my un modded switch can i turn my wifi back on and airplane mode off?
When you have emunand setup, I have wifi on the unmodded side and airplane mode on the modded side
Should I still download any OFW software updates if prompted in the future? Will it break CFW?
@@androidfanatic6528 Downloading them on the official side is ok, just dont update the cfw side until its safe to do so.
@@androidfanatic6528 Updating the official side is ok, never update the cfw side until you know there is an official release out
can i have a bigger microsd card? for example 300tb?
yer
how do u turn it back on when it fully dies?
Plug it in and it will get a battery meter in the corner, hold the power button down for about 20secs, the Nintendo logo will come on then off, if you have done it right nothing will be on the screen.
Is using telegram safe?, not sure about those apps as they always pop up on website?
Yer I have used it for years now
im using oled hardmod chip,to anyone see this, you can set the sd partition 10GB cause the 'system' only take 4GB at least.. dont waste storage😅 and much faster just taken 1 minute something to do this..👍👍
some data of games like taiko and just dance need the internal storage, so i still use 32gb or 64gb partition across the switch devices I mod.
I actually don't care about online ban so can I just log into sysmmc instead without making emummc ?
@@keepitshort4208 yes, but make a full backup of your nand. Even if the switch is already banned, i will still advice to use emummc, so that, if emummc will mess up, there is still the sysmmc as backup

if using emunand, official side update normal, cfw side use a program called daybreak
thanks
can you use exfat format?
Yes and its easier for installing files over 4gb BUT it is known to corrupt and crash your system so you run a bigger risk of losing everything and having to start again.
I buy 5 games did you recommend me to mod the switch
If you can yes of course if you mod your not gonna pay for games any more
what the name of the modchip you use
rp2040, typr that in aliexpress and will come up with a few options depending on your switch version
I tried with 2 sd cards and both failed, they are now corrupted without solution
Thats a shame, I have done a lot of these now and never had a single corruption.
Thank you so much brother!
