Hacking 6.0.0 Battery drain in sleep mode

[oldmumak]

Im on 6.0.0 with AutoRCM disabled. When i put the switch to sleep on SX OS I get battery drain(around 50% in 10 hours). If I boot stock firmware there is no battery drain. Is any one else getting the same thing?

 

[hallo42]

is version 6.0 already online?

This was discussed before firmware 6.0 came out in another thread, but basically it came down to usage of SX OS rather than the firmware itself. I'll see if I can dig up the thread again.

is version 6.0 already online?

Not officially, no.

EDIT: I just found the thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/battery-drain-in-sleep-mode-with-cfw-without.510782/

When I was on 5.1.0 I didnt have a drain problem.

That doesn't mean its related to the firmware. Both SX OS and firmware 6.0 were updated. The only way to know if its firmware 6.0 causing this is by running whatever version of SX OS you are using (V1.9 most likely) on firmware 5.1 and 6.0 then comparing the two.

Why do people insist on updating to 6.0 before it's even released? For all we know the leaked version isn't even the final one and could have bugs.
Does it actually have any notable new features that are making people want to update?

It has all the (currently non-functional) paid online stuff

So that's a no then. I don't understand why people are updating to an unreleased firmware when normally people will jump through hoops to avoid updating.

I guess its because "SX OS supports it lets install it!!1!1!1!1!1!1"

Its got Toad avatars and some NES icons implying that Nintendo may release support for NES games on the Switch.

Yeah but I don't think that's enough for a normal user to update early

NES is already confirmed, they said it would be offered as a complimentary service to those who subscribe to the online service. Basically you get access to a curated selection of NES games but only NES.

The irony. Might not be like this for too long.

Because testers test.

I upgraded it to 6.0 and had the same problem. Changed sx os from 1.9 to 1.8, same. Tried reinx fw, same , draining battery... So i m absolutely convinced its a fw issue. Came back to 5.1 and the problem was gone.

Lets hope that's why nin is lagN on releasing it and fixes it.

Possibly a "feature" Nintendo added for unofficial bootloaders/firmwares to deal with?

Yeah but what do you test exactly ? There is nothing new user wise in 6.0
There are no game requiring it, there is no way to use online since it's not launch (and would trigger a ban), what can you really test in the end ?

I will update to 6.0 as soon as a game that I want to play requires 6.0.
