These will not be listed here until implementation.

Johnny165 commented 6 years ago

When will this be implemented? :)

CTCaer commented 6 years ago

As soon as possible.

Johnny165 commented 6 years ago

Thank you so much CTCaer! I really appreciate it! (I have SX PRO and I really want to get rid of this malware, thought SX PRO was a good buy for external payloads, I was mistaken...)

@Johnny165

  1. TX are some of the most disreputable people out there. Their intention is only to make money.

  2. The payload loader doesn't require a buy if I remember correctly...

Just stay away from people like Xecuter or Gateway. SX is basically stolen Atmosphére and HBL code + brick code that triggers if someone wants to crack SX (how ironic)

Johnny165 commented 6 years ago

@Kasukoi Ik, that's why I'm not going to buy from TX ever again. I got the SX PRO thinking it was a great product for loading external payloads on the go, I was wrong, completely. I did my research and this thing is literally malware for the Switch. (Gateway is for 3DS only and their team is completely dead) (They could be working with TX, idk)

Kasukoi commented 6 years ago

@Johnny165 At the moment you're better off with an Android phone to load payloads on the go. (I know GW is for 3DS. Nonetheless, their intentions were pretty similar to TX's)

Johnny165 commented 6 years ago

@Kasukoi I don't have an Android, I'm hard modding my Switch instead :)

Johnny165 commented 6 years ago

@CTCaer What happens if you run TX's payload? Does it just automatically lock the eMMC at first boot or installation of SX OS?

Stolen atmosphere code ? Jeez guys.. if that were the case why is atmosphere not released.

a7mag3ddon commented 6 years ago

Also you can't steal code that's freely available. At worst all they dis was not credit atmosphere coders.

mariogamer2 commented 6 years ago

atmo is under gpl v2. Also this is off topic.

CTCaer commented 6 years ago

After careful consideration, in case Nintendo actually decides to check them or use them for temporary write protection, this will be dropped.

But in favor of supporting force erase feature of eMMC.
