AIO-switch-updater

A Nintendo Switch homebrew app to download and update CFWs, sigpatches, FWs and cheat codes. Supports Atmosphère, ReiNX and SXOS.

How to install

Description of the features

⬦ Update CFW

• Download the most popular Switch CFWs. After downloading the CFW archive, the program will ask you whether you want to override your existing .ini files. If you would like to preserve additional files or directories, write their path (one line each) in /config/aio-switch-updater/preserve.txt and they won't be overwritten when updating.

⬦ Update Sigpatches

• For Atmosphère. Downloads sigpatches, which are patches required for launching unofficial .NSPs. Both AMS and Hekate+AMS sigpatches are available. After downloading the sigpatches archive, the program will ask you whether you want to override your existing .ini files.

⬦ Download firmwares

• Download firmare files to /firmware that can then be installed using DayBreak or ChoiDuJour.

⬦ Download cheats

• Downloads and extracts daily-updated cheat code. The program will only extract cheat codes for the games you own. By default, this homebrew will overwrite the existing cheats. If you have your own cheat files that you'd like to keep as is, you can turn off cheat updates for specific titles in Tools->Cheat Menu.
• Since v2.0.0, aio-switch-updater can also download cheat sheets from CheatSlips.com.

Extras (in the Tools tab)

• Reboot to specific payload.
• Download payloads to /bootloader/payloads.
• Change software color scheme of Joy-Cons. Additional color profiles can be found in the releases and should be copied to config/aio-switch-updater/jc_profiles.json. Use this webpage to generate your own profiles.
• Change software color scheme of Pro Controllers (has to be paired as Player 1). Additional color profiles can be found in the releases and should be copied to config/aio-switch-updater/pc_profiles.json.
• View which of your games got cheat codes from the app.
• Launch the Switch's web browser.

Build

You need to have installed devkitPro and devkitARM in order to compile this project.

Install the required dependencies:

$ sudo (dkp-)pacman -Sy

$ sudo (dkp-)pacman -S  switch-glfw \
                        switch-curl \
                        switch-glm \
                        switch-mbedtls \
                        switch-zlib

Use switch-ex-curl instead of switch-curl to use this app with an invalid SSL certificate.

Compiling requires GLFW to be patched to support the latest Libnx hid API. Until this is merged upstream, use my fork
