See the other methods in this guide for other FW. Right now, this only works on 4.x and 5.x FW, but will work with others very soon. We will be using a method that works on all FW, this is the “hardmod” you heard about earlier. Method 1: Fusee Gelee, getting into the Homebrew launcher (4.x and 5.x) The Homebrew launcher is a “home menu” for homebrew apps. Now that you know what FW you have we can start to look at how you can hack your Switch.īefore we get into what you can do, you will need to access the Homebrew Launcher. Softmod means that the hack only requires software modifications, later FW 5.x require a minor hardmod, this will be explained further in the relevant section.īlocking updates is easy, follow this guide: Currently the versions mentioned above have a softmod exploit.
THE HOMEBREW LAUNCHER FOR SWITCH PATCH
On newer FW Nintendo can patch certain loopholes that let us run Homebrew, for you to get the best experience staying on lower FW is always better.
If the number is between 1.0.0 and 4.1.0 you will want to block updates, why? Under system update you will see “Current system version: x.x.x” this is the FW you are currently on. The guide will be updated once Atmosphere is ready for the end user.įirst, figure out what FW you are on, to do this go to settings and scroll down to system. Note: This is for running the HB launcher through Hekate, Atmosphere has not been released. So, you want to hack your Switch? Then let’s get started.
Please note that Homebrew is in its early days, and thus several things might not work on the FW you are currently on, check back here often for updates. The goal of this thread is to prepare users for CFW / HB in a safe manner, to avoid bricks and bans and keep all the information end users should need in one place with simple and easy to understand language.
You may also have to use the payloads from this thread on gbatemp if the links do not work. Be cautious & careful while modding your switch. If you brick your switch or damage it in any way while using this tutorial, I, & the author of this tutorial, are not liable for it. This is a repost of a guide by a user named jjbredesen on GBATemp.
