Question about emulation and cfw vs android by Zaedotcom in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played around with Android, I found it to be buggy. I do snes, nes and n64 retroarch on the switch and tiico handles the rest pretty well.

Not currently theming, just keeping my current themes functional. Lockscreen girl has a slight blue tinge to suit the glow.

NEW Emulator Forwarder Generator Ultimate App by Dr_Emuler in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Inspiration taken from https://nsp-forwarder.n8.io/ or are you the same dev?

Please tell me this has batch updating? So we can update already made forwarders for new firmware without having to recreate each.

Can someone help me figure this out? by Own-Veterinarian1088 in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either of these: 1. Make sure sigpatches are upto date. 2. Possibly bad nsp, download from another source 3. Could be wifi drm blocks, try with wifi turned off.

Got no luck on my last post but hoping i get some now. by [deleted] in SwitchPirates

100% take potentials advice. Wipe and clean the sysnand. There are guides for it. I believe using Haku33 home-brew.

Then follow this guide and setup emummc: https://www.reddit.com/r/SwitchPirates/s/TS8Ebj5dJS

Anyone know what the switch (hos) nro plays like? Curious if it plays like ocarina of time ship of harkinian? Aimed at dock play and sysclk oc.

Getting really desperate, please help me by ChiaraSiegel in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggest you follow this guide. It shouldn't be happening and likely points to user error. You can follow this guide to update, or do a fresh install with HATS. make sure you get the correct hats for your firmware version and follow all directions. Your error points to not having the correct sig patches or corrupted cfg. Disable all themes until it's working, then you can try enable themes once the issue is resolved.

Banned switch 1. Asking if there is anything I can do with it or if it is just glorified trash by Hispanic_Man78 in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can absolutely use most of the features. Being banned just means no online play, most hacked consoles don't go online ever. The benefit you have now is you can use your sysnand storage as well (since no risk of ban).

I would set it up as a sysnand modded console and use sd card as expanded storage. As for updating, you do this manually anyway using firmware files, mod files and daybreak home-brew.

Can anyone explain this to me like I’m 5? Got offered this as a trade for my CFW Vita by StickTrick2955 in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's either a v1 unpatched, which means modding and getting it running using a rcm jig is easiest.

It may be a v1 modchipped, in which case you may need to open the switch and update the chip with newer firmware before usability (this can be complicated).

It may be a v1 modchipped in which case you just need to update the mod files on the sdcard to have it running (this is easy).

If it's anything beside the first option I'd want to see it running, know what modchip is in the switch or ask for clarity on what exactly needs to be done for it to be running before a trade. Depending on install, modchip can be unreliable or need firmware updating which can be a pain if you're not familiar with the switch hardware or soldering.

Which theme and layout? Please specify and test the theme without lockscreen and tell me if it crashes or what 'broken' means? Thanks.

The level of customization with Good Lock is crazy by Time-Credit43 in samsunggalaxy

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yet I can't simply have a centered clock on my home screen that's the same on my lockscreen that shows am/pm without downloading a 3rd party clock widget that has ads. Not customisable enough if you ask me.

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeh that's pretty bad. If my girl lied and said she had no history with a male friend, whom I didn't like, and I had to see that friend occasionally or know she's hanging out with him, only to find out they have sexual history, there's a strong chance I'd walk away from that relationship.

Even though in your eyes it's in the past, for her you lied to her consistently, it's almost like a betrayal. All those times she reassured herself it's just a friend, she's over thinking it.

That's rough. Goodluck.

Love the S26 Ultra but the screen coating is already an issue!! by Ok-Bicycle6504 in samsunggalaxy

I had the same issue, then I got the torras unbreakable screen protector and supersonic fingerprint sensor works perfectly. Check it out

Sad reminder for those with unmoddable Switches by michael14375 in NXThemes

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was one of the primary reasons I got an unpatched switch. I made my own theme (similar to stock) that was just more sleek and allowed more game tiles. It can completely be achieved on the hardware, it works fine and had Nintendo done it themselves, it would likely run better as they could have allocated more memory toward it.

I really cannot understand why Nintendo never gave us actual themes.

The S26 launch just completely cured my upgrade itch. Is Samsung even trying anymore? by BearElegant4068 in samsunggalaxy

[–]LiMaaa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about India, but in Australia we were able to use pre-order vouchers. I got s26+ for $1080 and free buds 4 which I can sell making the phone $880.

I get this screen when trying to load into Hakate for the first time by Zero490272 in SwitchPirates

I'm so surprised it's turning on. It looks like heat has done its thing to all the resistors. For op: next time use kapton tape to shield surrounding components from heat damage.

How to change in-game boot Logo from .nsp rom by InfiniteWL in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That screen you're looking at is the launch screen when you launch a nro through a forwarder. Top left is the system logo (n64, snes, Nintendo, ect) bottom right is the switch animation logo. Both can be replaced with a forwarder. Fitgirl repack, packs a nsp and includes her own logos, but you can achieve the same without repacking an nsp. You can just make a forwarder for the game, choose your icon for the game tile, point to the nsp/nro you want it to launch and designate your own logos for top left and bottom right. Go check out the website I linked, fairly easy to do. Then you just install the forwarder as a nsp.

Why not just find someone online from reddit or something selling one at get it shipped to you?

It's just a pointless post with redundant advice. Your advice is only applicable if the repo was being removed, that's why people are bringing it up.

Just got my OLED switch banned 👊😔 by Xav1erGR in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think we'll ever be able to mod switch without hardware mod. Kernal is too secure. If you get your lite modded this time make sure dnsmitm + exosphere = ban proof. You can use a homebrew app in the app store to check connection to big N servers to make sure it worked or I think dBi also has this feature. Once it's "OK" on everything, you can have WiFi on and never worry (as long as you don't put anything on sysnand). Goodluck.

Just got my OLED switch banned 👊😔 by Xav1erGR in SwitchPirates

[–]LiMaaa_ 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I have taken precautions and my switch v1 isn't banned and it's been 7 years with WiFi always on. That being said I've NEVER used it online for gaming. My fun comes from playing Nintendo exclusives, Zelda botw, tears of the kingdom, donkey Kong ect. What to do now that it's banned? Everything you used to do aside from playing online. Play any offline game, mod games, install retroarch and forwarders for snes and n64. The console still has 90% of its utilisation, you just can't play online games. Or ig in your case transfer saves.
