after updating to v5.1 i can't launch homebrew it just crashes my switch
Were you by any chance using an ftpd-profile and updated through the sdfileupdater because I suspect that might be causing issues :/

Ugh that thing. Alright

FtpD accepts the connection.
Could you please upload the content of sd:/logs/ftpd.log?

Oh, alright then it's not what I suspected. Thanks for the help!

Can't help you with your issue though :/ Worst case you could just reformat your sdcard but that doesn't seem like a good solution.

edit: turns out it was because i didnt have exfat support on the ofw, fixed by following this guide

Try updating manually again, there was a hotifx for v5.1

Unfortunatly, I still get the issue with the latest version (I think it's a bug in "sys-ftpd.kip" and your latest version did not changed this module). I also compiled "sys-ftpd.kip" myself from the latest code version and I get the same issue.

What firmware are you on? I developed the sysmodule on 5.1 (since that's the only switch I have) so there might be incompatibilities with older firmwares :(

So I fell victim to the Sys-FTPD corruption through SDFilesUpdater when going from 5.1 to 5.2 through the tool and well I didn't skim this thread or the changelog beforehand so I never saw the warnings about the SD file corruption (assuming it wasn't there on 5.1 already, if it was I just didn't read it)

And the problems started... in Hyrule Warriors (I didn't try anything else yet) the game "saves" but then I close out and exit, go right back in my saved data is gone and I'm back to the state I had before doing whatever I did (i.e. level a character, it goes back to whatever lower level it had before)

Oh boy so ominous! Surely I'm going to ask, what to do right? Well thank god I won't have to pester you with that. No I managed to get out of the loop and I'd just like to report status just in case anyone else falls into the same hole.

I've tried in this order:
  • Backing up all files then reformatting the SD card (deleted partitions with EaseUS Partition Manager then created a new ExFAT permission with windows formatter) and putting the files back but that is to no avail.
  • Run the fixer from the hekate payload ("all sd files" version) (returned "total archive bits cleared: 934) but to no avail
  • telling the system to remove the game data and getting it back afterwards - this was useless coz it is a cartridge game so it only had to re-download the update
  • Injecting an older save file from before this whole charade started. Wooh this worked!!

TL;DR: BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP. I was gods holy lucky enough that I shared some save files in another thread otherwise I'd be seriously screwed over too.




I use Hekate v3.2 with a 3D printed RCM JoyCon Jig and lause f-g through Windows Powershell

I am having trouble launching the FTP module on my switch. I always get the error code 2002-6605 after the switch logo appears. It doesn't matter if I select FTP with CFW or LayerFS. My switch is on 3.0.0

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
