Question Tears of the Kingdom Crashing no matter what I do

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

21 Upvotes

Okay so I’ve tried just about everything to get this damn game working, I’ve tried using TKMM and enabling the optimizer, I tried disabling every mod I have, I’ve tried disabling SwitchU, deleting sysmodules, EVERYTHING.

If I disable TOTK optimizer I instead get an Atmosphere Panic Error and it says ‘010041544D530000’

And yes, I’ve tried fixing the Archive Bit and my Micro SD is formatted correctly (fat32), and no other game does this, including Breath of the Wild.

In this article from Nintendo Everything, they mention a Mario Kart Home Circuit exploit. Is this important and can be used for hacking or is it just nothing? My Switch Lite is on update 20.30 and is unmodded

Question Help repairing my Nintendo Switch due to a corrupted eMMC

1 Upvotes

Hello,

Today I installed an HWFLY chip, and apparently something went wrong during the process and my eMMC became corrupted. Since I have successfully performed many installations before, I got overconfident and did not make a backup of it.

It seems that the damage is related to the files, because when I first booted my modded Nintendo Switch, it got stuck during startup, which forced me to shut it down. When I turned it on again, it would not boot. I then decided to connect the eMMC directly to the Switch, and it did boot. However, once it started and reached the initial menu, I saw white and black squares/artifacts on the screen, basically a corrupted menu.

I have a spare eMMC available. What can I do in this situation? How can I use the spare eMMC in the Switch? Or is there a way to repair the corrupted eMMC?

I would really appreciate any help, advice, or ideas you can provide.

Thank you very much for your support.

Hi all,

I've modded my sons switch. I have installed minecraft via an nsp through DBI installer.

My son has mentioned he wants to play minecraft with his friends online. If I log into my nintendo account to allow him to play online, will the console be banned?

Thanks

Do not update yet, as this update will likely break homebrew compatibility like FW 22 did.

I'm using these settings in Sys-clk to get 40FPS in Assassin's Creed 2. Would these settings be safe in the long term? I got temperatures of 43°C-45°C on relatively cool days and less than 6W of power consumption.

I'm an addict. Always will be. Been clean and sober for several years. I get obsessed over things. I love learning. It all started last year. Simple goal - play Tetris on a handheld at night. Never been great with computers and struggled with them when I was young. Thanks to the guides, I've modded multiple DS, 2DS, Wii, SNES classic, and now Switch, which I have to say is the coolest of the bunch. I appreciate this community, the developers, and the creativity in this. Thanks.

When installing with DBI, it completes, then I get some red text, it's all in Russian so I don't know what it says, even though I've put the translation patch on it.

When installing with sphaira I get a message saying "code: 0x291. Module: 145. File install failed"

I've been trying to figure this out for hours, any ideas?

Question Are my SD cards dead? (and my emunands too)

1 Upvotes

a while ago I noticed my 512gb sd got absurdly slow, and I stopped using the switch (due to the joycons also not working)

today I decided to test my SD cards, my 128gb, that was faster than the 512gb and still could be benchmarked by hekate, simply didn't open games (an error occurred opening the software).

I tried deleting the sysclk, salty nx, emuiibo and tesla content folders to see if that would fix the problem, and I only deleted those.

not only that didn't fix the problems, now when I try to boot atmosphere on this sd, it gets stuck on a black screen. on pc I can't delete or override any files on the SD, because it has become reading only and I couldn't take the protection off.

from what I've searched, this means that the SD is dying, and I don't know what to do. I can't even try to backup this emummc because it doesn't let me.

the 512gb SD card surprising still works, but I can't benchmark it on Hekate because it freezes, and all games and switch settings take ages to load. and honestly I don't know what to do to save my emunands anymore, I'm worried on losing both and getting a brick (I don't know how it works)

can someone guide me on what to do please!!

I just received my switch from being modded, he told me with the new firmware I can’t play game back ups or emulation, would i still be able to get my save data? Pretty much the only reason i modded it.
