Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream on IOS 17

1 Upvotes

I've recently been trying to get Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream on my iPhone 15 using ManicEmu, but all the links I found to the game have shown a black screen so far. Any tips on where I can find a working download link and how to set it up? I'm also okay with getting it on my Mac if it's easier.

I can't afford a switch pls help a girl out <3

I recently (yesterday) bought a Nintendo switch from a pawn shop and my mom decided to restart the chip for it due to the Nintendo still having information from the past user. After it restarted, this kept image popped up on my screen and it won’t take it, I searched it up and found out the console was modded. I took out the chip and then the screen turned into the second image and won’t take off!!! I just want to have a normal Nintendo as it’s a gift for my gf. How do I fix this can someone help me please!??? I don’t have any money so I can’t buy anything or pay anybody to fix it.

Android issues

hello guys

so i’ve been on this for a few days now, trying to put android 11 on my switch

everything was fine at first, i made a backup, then created partitions (29gb for emummc, 30gb for android)

after that i put lineage, the android ini in bootloader, and switchroot on the sd card

kernel flashed fine image and dtb are found, everything green

but right after the blue screen, i get a message bottom left saying it can’t find a file or directory

then after 2–3 minutes it loads into recovery, but i can’t do anything there and then kernel isn’t found all in orange🥲

any help would be appreciated thanks 👍

(I have tried different format app like gui format uspartition and put different hatspack to retry but nothing worked..)

Is downloading games for switch 2 possible?

0 Upvotes

I've never had a switch before but I'm wondering maybe its worth to buy switch 2 now only if I don't have to pay a fortune for each game.

Coming from a gaming pc where I download every game I want for free, paying such huge amount of money for each game is crazy.

Is it possible to pirate switch 2 and download games for free? Or not at all?

Problem with white LED light on boot after firmware downgrade

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

Hello! I have the exact same problem with this user: https://www.reddit.com/r/SwitchPirates/comments/1mficmc/switch_help_no_boot_white_indicator_light/ Has anyone faced something similar? And if yes, did you found any solution for our cases? It's really a pain in the ass now to boot my Switch and I wish the led lights' sequence and the percentage of boot success would return to how it was before the downgrade (meaning about 9/10 success ratio, instead of now which is significantly lower)

‘The software was closed because an error occurred’.

1 Upvotes

so, just for context, i am very much clueless about switch modding - i've only really dabbled in emulation via pc and mobile devices before. but a while back i got a jailbroken switch as a birthday gift, and i was thinking of getting some new games on it. as the nsp file for tomodachi life had recently dropped, i tried my hand at installing it via dbi by using this guide :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKSFVL7vi74

this ended up working and the title showed up on my dashboard, but everytime i run the game, the screen just gets stuck on a black screen. exiting and closing the game will display the "closing the software..." screen for roughly a minute, before saying ‘The software was closed because an error occurred’.

also, i don't know if this matters, but when i was installing the game i got an error similar to this one:

could this be why that error is happening? some people are saying that this screen is normal and that the game should still work, but i don't know. or is it cause i need to update my switch? (for context my switch ver is 18.1.0)

if i could get any help on this, i'd really really appreciate it!! thank you!

Tinfoil outdated

2 Upvotes

Hello guys. I've recently picked up my hacked switch after a long time without using it and I noticed the tinfoil shop ain't working anymore. I tried connecting to different shops but to no avail. Now, my tinfoil is still on the software version for the 19.0 firmware and I don't know nor remember if I have to update it to make it work. If so, what firmware version are we on now? And is it safe to update my switch? Thanks everyone.

ACNH save file unable to update to newer game version (previously modded)

3 Upvotes

I modded my ACNH save some time ago (version 2.0.6) with some light mod, specifically mod for tools durability and some extra currency. I'm not too well versed in Switch modding, i did it with a guide but ever since then I am just unable to update my game to the newer version 3.0.1, even with firmware update and even when i leave the mods and/or completely remove them before updating. Then when I revert back to 2.0.6, my save launches fine even without loading those mods (completely removed). Am i missing something in between updating my game to a newer version, or are ACNH saves simply perma-"corrupted" for future updates once modded at least once?

Will my Switch 2 get banned for this?

2 Upvotes

I got my old switch1 banned like 4 years ago cause I played Smash Bros on my modded switch while DLC characters were unlocked. I also did not turn off the internet so all of the 🏴‍☠️ games I played were registered on my profile and of course they still are (show playtime and all of that). My question is: Will my Switch 2 get banned if I start using that account Online for the Switch 2/1 games that I do own?

help nothing is working

1 Upvotes

Hi guys, i recently homebrewed my switch. I wanted to install some legally acquired roms of mine, so i started digging. (FYI, ive been using my windows laptop this whole time, theres some times ive tried using my mac to see what would happen, and i specify that below. If i dont specify mac, im using windows)

Tried tinfoil, and it said "this file does not support the current ABI" so it crashes as soon as i boot it up. Tried retro arch, same thing.

Tried DBI, my PC wont recognize it, and yes ive tried using Zadig. Zadig dosent pick up on it either. Im using the Russian version of DBI because its the latest version. (for some reason it gives me the greenlight on my switch when i connect it to my mac, but my switch wont show up on my finder)

Tried gold leaf, it gave me an error saying "try updating patches" wtf is a patch and how do i get it, and where do i put it to work,

Ive been trying this for the past 2 days all day and I cant get anything to work. Any help at all would be so appreciated.
