SX Save Manager v1.1 Comments Off on SX Save Manager v1.1 Posted by Scene News on Aug 4, 2020 in Featured Articles First we want to thank all SX OS users who also added SX Save Manager to their SX library for the feedback they sent us. It helps us greatly improves our products. So here is our first update, which mainly focus on correcting small bugs and make it what we think is a pretty stable version that all of you can enjoy without worries. Changelog: Fixed two simple but easy to miss bugs that caused many users to crash if they had over 30 titles or corrupt games installed. We apologize for any inconveniences caused by this.

Added a settings menu

Added option to hide device saves

Added support for BCAT data

Changed "Export or import" text to "Backup or restore" to avoid confusion

Added fast scrolling using the left analogue stick

Sort mode is now saved instead of defaulting on launch

The UI's game name text now also includes the save type for all types

SX Save Manager is now hidden in the list

Removed 8.8.8.8 DNS override (this app only, not system wide) to increase compatibility

Added option to back up all data to the SD card

Added option to use custom file names

Many small improvements to increase stability Additionally some users were confused by the different types of saves. Here is a brief explanation. A user specific save is a save file that belongs to a user. That save is loaded when the game is launched by that user.

A common user save (also known as a device save) is a save file that doesn't belong to a user, these saves are used by all users. An example of a common user save is Animal Crossing where all players on a single Switch share one island.

BCAT data is data used by Nintendo to add new content to games without releasing a full update for example Animal Crossing uses it to add events without releasing full updates. More to come in the future as we keep on pushing further the limits of your beloved Switch console ! –< Team Xecuter – Pushing the limits of every Switch in 2020 and beyond! >–

Nintendo Switch Stuck At 'JoyCon' Logo With SX Core Comments Off on Nintendo Switch Stuck At 'JoyCon' Logo With SX Core Posted by Scene News on Jul 1, 2020 in Featured Articles It turns out most users exhibiting these symptoms have used METAL (or) SHARP (or) LARGE tools to remove the CPU shield, and in doing so, they have damaged either or both the two small caps located just outside of the shield area. (see pic below) The shield needs to be removed carefully using plastic or small tools and the installer needs to start on the other side where there are no nearby components which could be easily damaged. The capacitors in question should look solid and untouched like this picture below: These two caps are located in the same spot on both the (v1) 'erista' and (v2) 'mariko' motherboards. Resoldering these two caps back in place, or replacing them with a similar SMD 0.1uf 10v 0201 part will solve all your issues from getting stuck at the 'JoyCon' logo. It is recommended to get a professional installer to do the job for you, if you don't have the correct tools to complete your SX Core installation successfully. That's all today, and remember if you have any technical support issues with our products, please contact our tech staff at tech @ xecuter . com or reach out to our very helpful TX Community of fellow users on our TX Chat Server . 🙂 —< Team Xecuter - Pushing the limits of every Switch in 2020 and beyond ! >—

SX OS v3.0.3 Beta and SX Core/Lite Flasher Application Announcement Comments Off on SX OS v3.0.3 Beta and SX Core/Lite Flasher Application Announcement Posted by Scene News on Jun 30, 2020 in Featured Articles We are back with a minor (yet important!) update for SX OS, as well as an PC utility for updating your SX Core/Lite firmware over USB. The latter is required for people who ran tools that were not designed for their Switch console. One example is the popular `Choi Du Jour NX`, which people use to upgrade/downgrade their firmware. This tool was designed for classic erista/rcm consoles, and as such is dangerous to use on mariko consoles. That said, lets have a look at the official changelog: SX Core/Lite firmware v1.3

SX Core/Lite users will be prompted to install a firmware update upon first launch of SX OS 3.0.3. This is a mandatory update that improves the stability of SX Core/Lite. It also adds hardening against accidental bricks that were caused by running tools designed for Erista/RCM consoles on. People who are unable to run SX OS v3.0.3 because they bricked their consoles are advised to run the standalone USB updater application.

Will remove any trace of SX Core/Lite on your NAND. Genuine Boot:

Boot straight into original firmware without going through the typical SX OS bootchain. This is *different* from using the regular boot original firmware functionality, for example you won't be protected from getting your fuses burnt. Only use when you know what you are doing!
