Bug Report

Hi, I really have no idea where else I'd report this first so I'll try my luck here. This issue is sort of weird and it only occasionally happens (although almost guaranteed lately), most often after rebooting from CFW into hekate and then trying to boot into CFW again.

What's the issue you encountered?

Switch gets stuck while booting emuMMC after the "Nintendo Switch" logo fades out. The screen is blank and the backlight is turned ON. The Switch does not respond to any button presses or combinations and needs to be force-shutdown by holding the power button for ~10 seconds. If left untouched for some time while it is stuck, the backlight does turn OFF, but turns ON again immediately after pressing any button or touching the screen.

Additionally, I've sometimes had an issue where after force-shutdown and reboot, the switch gets back into RCM after the sept logo.

How can the issue be reproduced?

  1. Boot into emuMMC via hekate
  2. Successfully boot into atmos
  3. Reboot through the restart option in power menu (holding power button for ~3 seconds) (I've noticed that this also happens if I shutdown and inject hekate again manually)
  4. Successfully reboot into hekate
  5. Launch emuMMC
  6. Get stuck at blank screen after Nintendo Switch logo fades out

System Firmware Version

9.2.0

Environment?

Additional context?

Additional info about your environment:

This is a newly hacked switch and this has been happening for a while, although I can't really remember for how long, could be from the very start. The firmware that was installed before the hacking was 9.1.0. After setting up atmos (or kosmos), I've updated the firmware to 9.2.0 with ChoidujornX on both emuMMC and stock sys. I haven't had any issues with stock sys.

The sdcard used is Toshiba Exceria 128gb. I've tested it multiple times on both Windows(with h2w) and linux (with f3) and all the times there were 0 errors or issues. I've done the emuMMC setup in 3 different ways just to rule out that as well:

  1. On Windows using DiskGenius - guide
  2. Using TegraExplorer's SD format option for emuMMC - guide
  3. On Linux using gparted and overwriting the emuMMC partition beginning and end - guide

At first my setup was the latest Kosmos. After experiencing these issues I've tinkered with Kosmos and tried different things from using sigpatches and different booloader configs to removing modules and homebrew, but to no avail. After that I've done a manual atmos setup with hekate + kosmos sigpatches + some sys modules like sys_con. This also produced the same behaviour, so I removed the sys_modules. It seemed as it would work for a while with no issues (maybe for a week) before I randomly started experiencing issues again (I've not modified anything regarding atmos or hekate)

My latest setup which I'm basing this report on is the following:

  1. completely wiped sdcard
  2. sdcard setup for emummc using this guide
  3. unpacked atmosphere 0.10.5 to sdcard (except switch folder)
  4. unpacked hekate 5.1.3 to sdcard
  5. replaced atmosphere/reboot_payload.bin with hekate's payload hekate_ctcaer_5.1.3.bin (renamed to reboot_payload.bin)
  6. add this bootloader config: hekate_ipl.ini
  7. copied over the switchfolder containing previously listed homebrew
  8. emuMMC created and enabled using hekate

I've also tried using hekate's "unset archiving bit" option but it made no difference to the problem.

AutoRCM is turned ON

I guess this could also be a hekate issue, sorry if it's not related to atmos

I have the same problem as you. When I formatted the tf card, it was solved.

I personally would recommend against using video guides, as they get outdated rather quickly.

Also, this doesn't fully sound like a clean atmosphere install
