Thanks for the hard work, it runs great on my Switch! One question though, if I root with Magisk can I somehow mount a Windows Network Share as a local folder?

Estás ignorando un punto, hay consolas que son premariko que solo se pueden modificar por software mediante caffeine o chip.

Caffeine requiere que la nand (mmc) este en 4.1 o inferior para poder ejecutar Hekate y de ahí atmosphere, lakka o Android ¿Dime cómo puedes instalar fortnite de forma oficial? Yo no estoy dispuesto a pagar $200 dlls por el chip (ese es su costo en México) y poder tener nand y emunand.

Twrp is a little bit broken right now, later comes an update.

Fir your problem whit the joycon zip.

Root whit magisk

Go to: vendor/usr/keylayout

And edit the files or copy them in.

if you don't want to root it should also work via twrp's file explorer.

I was able to get tivimate running on the latest ATV Build. Took a minute to get set up because xtream code url was annoying, but with Shield TV App on my phone it made that whole process a lot easier
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Ginosius:
Make sure you use the canary version of Magisk.

In Magisk Manager settings enable Zygisk and hide the app (rename it to something else).

Install both the "Universal Safetynet Fix" and "Magisk Props Config" modules.

Then open a terminal (Terminal Emulator or Termux) and type: sudo props

Now you can set the Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 fingerprint key.

Finally reboot and clear the storage/cache of both Google Play Store and Google Play Services.

Reboot once more and Google Play store should show everything because it identifies your Switch as an original Nvidia Shield Pro 2019.

**EDIT** Just seen you used the TABLET version of Andoid, I'm using the ATV version. Think that explains it.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Burkse:
Hi All,

I have managed to install the ATV Version without issue and it runs great!

I am having some trouble with the following and was wondering if I could get some assistance:

1. for ATV is there a button or command that shows recent apps so I can close them? (Similar to double tapping home on the Nvidia Shield brings up recent apps which can be closed)

2. Does anyone have a fix for Amazon Prime Video? I get a HDMI cable error when trying to stream anything.

3. I can't seem to get the Magisk/Safety Net fix to work on ATV so that Netflix installs via play store (Currently installed a tablet version of Netflix but it's difficult to navigate on ATV with remote) Can someone provide me with a step by step process to get this working?

Thanks :)

[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Andykt76:
I have the exact same 3 questions!

I think the ATV version appears to have more issues around DRM so I ended up switching to the tablet version. If anyone can fix these 3 items, I'll change back (I already have 3 Nvidia Shields, so kind of like the layout of the ATV image).

Taken from the Switchroot.org address (for reference)

switchroot

Switchroot is a group for open-source development on the Nintendo Switch, a Tegra X1-based game console with a FOSS bootstrap exploiting a low-level recovery bootloader.

[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] cjxsutton:
Here is the message for everyone:

"Hey Switchroot gang!

Fixup OTA is out--Sorry for the inconvenience caused by the WiFi glitches--the WiFi functionality has been restored to that of prior builds. We will be investigating a new firmware to further increase WiFi reliability, especially on higher 5GHz channels, but all in all, functionality is back on par with previous builds. TWRP is now able to flash all zips again (if you encounter other issues with TWRP, please let us know--we recently switched codebases and TWRP is now built off Android 11/LineageOS 18.1 sources). Additionally, TWRP can now properly handle USB-OTG devices, including (theoretically) hubs of several devices all at once! The side effect is one empty "Storage" device showing up in the Select Storage and Mount lists, but this can be safely ignored. Connected OTG devices will show up as "Storage <number>" in the list. Backup/Restore should work as expected, along with all standard TWRP features. We have also fixed the sensors glitch on reboot--auto-rotation should be vastly more reliable. Sensor calibration is a work in progress--you can try calibrating your gyroscope using a gyro.txt in switchroot/android on your SD. No guarantees, but it may solve some issues in the interim while we work on a graphical solution. Just edit the file to be in the form shown below, and reboot your system if your're editing from inside Android so the calibration init script can kick in. The final implementation will also allow for accelerometer calibration, but one thing at a time :). Builds on the download site will be available tomorrow (it's 2 am here lol), but if you just need to hard flash for some reason, you can directly grab the latest build from http://ota.switchroot.org/builds/full/. Have fun!

Instructions for gyro.txt

1. Use a gyro tester app like Physics Toolbox

2. Find the average distance from zero for each axis (x, y, z)

3. Create switchroot/android/gyro.txt of the following form:

x, y, z

1.0, 1.0, 1.0

(Yes, write 1 as 1.0 in the file)

If you're having trouble booting after the 4APR OTA update, in your SD card replace /switchroot/android/boot.scr with this file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OH8NL6AJP36KRyQRMMenK5mYLmxIZ8EK/view?usp=drivesdk"

how do you set a passcode? every time I try on the 20220309 build it never sticks
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] cjxsutton:
IDK I didn't bother personally but I do have the same issue with setting a custom "style" theme. I don't like the teal color so I set up my own and applied it, every time I reboot though it goes back to that default theme. My custom one is still there though, it doesn't delete it, but I do have to reapply it each time. Wonder what the deal is with that. If it's not a simple fix maybe I can use Tasker or something to do it automatically on reboot

[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] scyto:
I just did this last night and thought i had same issue as you. But i now have it working

1. you must do the BT pairing info described in step 10 https://wiki.switchroot.org/en/Android/Setup-10

2. you must do a full shutdown from androids first boot and config, then use your jig and hektate and choose the android config

then you will find BT will pair correctly for the joycons

Just wanted to say thanks, I bought one unpatched switch and tried android on it as a whim. I was extremely impressed with how well it worked, that I bought a second unpatched switch for my legally blind brother. I must say, the attention to detail your crew put into this is astonishing. you even got the accessibility features (zoom in particular) working beautifully.

That said, I only have the tab version installed on both devices, and have tried a few times with a few different cards, to get the TV version up and running. I have had no luck getting it past boot. It just crashes and reboots into recovery. I tried it on a blackweb 256 gb card, a lexar 256 gb card (the Nintendo branded one with the star), and a 128 gb sandisk with 100mbps read/write speed.

Any help getting the TV version running would be great.

Hi all. Problem with DualShock and other gamepads. When I enter RetroArch everything works, but after pressing R1 RetroArch hangs, and if you minimize/uninstall it all works until you press R1 again. In games, when logging in, everything is fine. But once you press R1, it feels like it gets stuck and keeps pressing. There is no such problem on JoyCon. Tried with different revisions of DS4 and Hori, the problem is the same when connected via OTG and via Wi-Fi and usb in the docking station. Can you tell me how to fix it?

P.S. The Switch itself and the Lakka don't have this problem.

Hi guys, I installed the ATV version. Most of the things are working and I'm happy with them, but I have just a couple of questions:

1) Netflix and Disney+ are not available in the play store. Is there a way to install them and make them work?

2) Prime Video works, but when I try to start a movie or a tv show episode, it gives an error about the HDMI cable (even if I'm out of the dock).

3) I'd like to take a backup via TWRP, but when I try to do that, it says that it cannot create the folder on the SD card because the partition is read-only. Even in the system, using Solid Explorer for instance, if I try to create a file on the SD, I get an error. Everything is readable but it really seems that both TWRP and ATV cannot write on the SD. The only one that seems to write on the SD is the Hekate bootloader. I use its tools to mount the SD card via USB to my pc and to transfer the data I need. Doing this way I can write on the SD.

4) In Hekate, can I resize the Android partition (now I set 16GB as expalined in the tutorial, but I'd like to expand it a little bit) without losing all the data? I'd like to prevent reinstalling everything from scratch...

Many thanks to whom will help ;)

I'm assuming you could sideload the atv version of netflix, in apk format and install it? Have you tried that yet?
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] EtSimulViator444:
Sideloading the apps in apk format and installing them? If taking the sd card out and into pc to move the apk files of the apps you want that don't work normally, then try using a usb c flash drive or flash drive with a usb a to usb-c adapter and inserting it and then to files and then installing/sideloading it from there.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Saggia:
Yes, if I sideload or take the SD out it works. My problem is only that I can't write on the SD partion in Android and in TWRP. Could it be Hekate's fault? I partitioned the SD from there...

Anyone using Android TV, has my same issue or not? I'm trying to understand this.

I am so sorry. I'm not sure how it'd be fixed, I do hope someone else knows how though, otherwise you may have to figure out how to master the art of using the right joystick. You can also always just go into the settings of the games and change the camera sensitivity, if that is what you're looking for that is. I wish you the best, and good luck!
