Had free time and made a theme

Yeah, based on that one console i can’t say because automod took me down, made this for my OLED but seems pretty good so you tell me, Themezer code is P2171 by the way.

help installing melonds .nro on my switch

i tried installing melonds (i got the file from github). i placed the switch folder on the root of my sd card, but when i launched hb menu, there’s no melonds nro. i used nx-shell to see why isn’t working, and melonds doesn’t have the .nro, just the file name. should i just drag the .nro file to switch folder manually?

First time modder, installed HATS pack and reloaded hekate, always gives these errors when loading.

Using a V1 switch and hekate 6.5.2. Originally installed HATS pack and no launch options appeared where I previously had stock emunand and sysnand. I reloaded hekate and was met with screenshot #1, pressing a button brings me to screenshot #2 and vice versa. Any help is appreciated.

Black Screen for Pokemon Brilliant diamond?

Updated sigpatches, atmosphere, and everything. I installed a copy of Pokemon Brilliant diamond. The game boots up but gives me a black screen. I’m on firmware 17.0.1. Any ways to fix this? All my other games work fine.

Edit: for some reason I tried loading the game on a different account and it worked? Game loaded with no issues

Where Have I Gone Wrong? Error Code 2123-0011

https://preview.redd.it/mxj0himnkgug1.jpg?width=4080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=efff726d363ee6257b2adde9a65f9224bfb9b385

I've had a bit of a nightmare tonight. Booted into OFW for the first time in a while and updated system without paying attention. This led to me getting a fuse error which meant the Switch couldn't wake from sleep. I noticed I needed to update Atmosphere and Hekate, which I did. I updated fusee to the current version but now I am getting this error whenever I boot into any mode. The console will seem normal for a few seconds but then this will flash up and I have to reboot. Am I fucked? Am I best off restoring from a backup? I've no idea where I have gone wrong.

Need answer to something very specific

Im new into switch modding so please excuse my dumb question.

I have a legitimate digital copy of Hollow Knight that i bought on my unmodded switch.

Before giving it to a guy who modded it for me, i have moved all the game data from the system memory to the SD card (not the one used for the modding! I was afraid that the guy would factory reset my console and i would lose my saves, so i wanted to have them somewhere)

After modding it, I have decided to install a clean version of the game on my emuMMC (did not want to switch between OFW and emuMMC just to play a game). I was ready to lose all my saves and start again, but to my surprise, all my saves are still there.

Should I be worried that I did not lose my saves?

Nintendo servers are obviously blocked (checked many times just to be sure). How did this happen? Can someone explain the science behind it?

What version should I update my switch to?

I recently setup cfw for the Switch and was trying to tinfoil or the HB Appstore but it tells me it doesn't support the current ABI.

I assume it's probably due to my Switch still being on v16.0.3 what version should I update to? And how? (I have the V1 Nintendo Switch if that changes anything I have to do)

Failed update and fuse mismatch. What do i do now?

Hey everyone. So here is the backstory to fully understand my problem. The day i put a CFW on my switch i installed a 22.0.0 FW. I realized that i couldnt do anything with it. So i watched an unfortunately outdated video and i downgraded to 21.2.0 using daybreak.

When i tried to boot up into the SysMMC it showed me a atmosphere error mentioning the 21.2.0 FW. After that i tried to do a NAND Fix Level 1 using FW22.0.0. In the TegraExplorer it shows that i have FW 22.0.0 installed but i get a error saying pkg1/pkg2 mismatch error. I have talked with a redditor who seemed experienced and walked me through the troubleshoot and his main suspicion is that the update simply failed to install properly but still displays 22.0.0.

He said its because i have a fuse mismatch (22/23 in the HW & Fuses). Whats the best i can do? (And no i dont have a backup from when everything worked flawlessly, and yes i know i was stupid not to but im here trying to learn and fix this whole mess) :)

See the pictures for more details:

My Smash save is accessible on sysnand but not emmunand? how can I access it? is it recommended?

So I finally got my switch modded with the addition of acropolis and skyline, but I didn't have my Smash save file installed before I modded the switch, so now basically I have Smash saying it's installed on my sysnand, and Smash with the cloud and arrow on my emmunand. I'm not able to download it from emmunand and JKSV doesn't show my Smash save data when my user is highlighted. I also haven't played smash on my sysnand since I reinstalled it there. Could that be the issue?

Is there anyway to extract game saves from a file based EMUnand thats saved on my computer?

Long story short, I got a new modded OLED, so I backed up my V1 Switch’s SD card and formatted it so I could use it on my new OLED.

Is there any way to extract my game saves from the backup I made of my old emunand on my computer, so I can put the saves on my OLED?

Can anyone help? Unable to use title takeover Homebrew Menu in EmuMMC.

I followed a video on how to mod the switch and did it correctly all the way through, but i realized at the end that i didn't have any app installed before hand to get into the title takeover homebrew menu on emummc. This is because everything needed to be reinstalled since i hadn't used the console in a while, which I didn't notice. Now i have no idea what to do or how to fix this, and I was thinking of removing everything and trying the whole thing again, but I don't know how to do that either.

Trying to find threads of similar issues to this are hard to follow since I don't know much about this space, so if anyone could help that would be great.

Damaged Game data when i transfer with DBI Installer

So basically first time doing this.
I followed a tutorial and dumped the game with the xci file.
But when i try to open it it says that the data is damaged and to run a check, i make it run, and it says something along the lines that it can't be repaired and contact nintendo.
Or to try to update the switch.

I wondered if the issue was with the xci file but i just opened it from the emulator on my pc and it works perfectly here.
So...what do i do?

Restoring eShop/online access [RU]
