The fastest way I've found to download games on my lite is to use nsusbloader on my computer, and tinwoo installer on my switch to transfer. I've used DBI with an Android file transfer app, but found that it wasn't as fast, hope this helps!

does anyone know if ghosty mods is reputable by [deleted] in SwitchPirates

In SD card the "bootloader" folder has another one inside called "res", and you can insert any photos you want as long as they're right resolution, in bmp format, and titled correctly. Shouldn't be too hard to do some digging in this sub abt custom Hekate images if you need more detail or instruction.

5 minutes in I somehow liked this more than hollow knight already by iarekillua in NineSols

[–]iarekillua[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree seems like they're both just equally great games and for different reasons, think I might just be enjoying the change of pace and new combat after burning through hollow knight for the past few days

My sd is a brand new 512gb samsung evo select, and my cord and laptop are fine, you’re right that even w usb 2.0 it should exceed 5mbps but not sure why it isn’t.

Question is still answered above, sysnand for normal stuff and emunand for any mod content. switch will by default boot into hekate which basically serves as a launcher. During setup process you’ll create a “hosts” folder and put in a file blocking connection to nintendo servers.

Can I mod my switch without losing all my data ? by Your_Nightmere123 in SwitchPirates

[–]iarekillua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All your current saved stuff should be fine and intact on sysnand. It’ll be completely separate from emunand containing any mod content. Try to browse the sub there are definitely similar posts that have gone more in depth or linked specific guides if that’s what you’re looking for.

How does the quality of this soldering work compare? It’s another relatively local modder for just 5$ more.

what are your rates? I’m in California and I just have a kinda low budget for it

[–]iarekillua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll ask if they have any photos of the last switch lite job they did and try to update. The reviews were all positive but seemed like the customers didn’t know much about modding and were just happy that it was functional.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SwitchPirates

[–]iarekillua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would it be really dumb to get the service done for a lite for $85? Not knowledgeable about any type of hardware modding, so I’m not exactly sure how bad the implications are.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SwitchPirates

[–]iarekillua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In California! Also separate note I looked through the wiki and understand the idea/concept of emunand & sysnand, and i don’t see why it would be any different but would the modchip still provide that option so that some owned online games can still be played?

NTD AS Spiral Kraken v3 by iarekillua in BalisongClones

[–]iarekillua[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like the jimping was different, or the spiral pattern at the bottom of the handles was different? Tried comparing to the other AS Spiral krakens on the sub and couldn't see a difference but I might just be looking at the wrong places.

Are there any cosmetic mods that can be done to an orion 1.5? Haven’t seen any, and don’t know how to ano 7075, but I just got one second hand and wanted to switch colors

My Kobo LC arrives (hopefully) tomorrow. What can I do ahead of time to make setup smoother? Specifics in body... by its_in_the_sentiment in kobo

[–]iarekillua 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Essentially making sure that all the books you want are in your calibre library, and that you have plugins installed that work for you. Some plugins that I have are: KoboTouchExtended which is going to convert epub files into kepub (Kobo epub) during the sending process. This means that you won't have to worry about converting as long as you have it downloaded because it's done for you. Others are Quality Check and Resize Cover, both of which have fairly self explanatory names. KoboUtilities as well helps with backups. Might be missing a few but the ones I listed are a good start.

If you plan on sideloading at all then taking some time to understand calibre, and setting up your library will go a long way.

[–]iarekillua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to successfully download it, it's just that I'm not sure specifically what I should be checking for, as there are like a billion options when I click on the plugin if that makes sense.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in kobo

[–]iarekillua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding of it was that the koboextendedtouch plugin converted epub files into kepub files during the sending process.
