Hello everyone. Please help.

I've been able to hack every console I've had easily and successfully. So I've decided to give my switch a try however I seem to have hit a brick wall.

I'm currently running 10.0.1 on a unpatch Switch.

I have Atmosphere 0.12.0 with the sigpatches, Homebrew AppStore(2.2) and Tinfoil 8.1 on my SD card.

I have a jig so easy can get into RCM and inject the payload via TegraRcmGui(2.6).

Then when I go to run Tinfoil to run my backups I just get an error message saying it can't load??
I'm doing excatly what videos have shown me and for some reason I'm stuck here.

Before I started this I formated my 128gb as a FAT32 and also cleared my Switches memory of any games. Do I need a game cartridge insert or one downloaded off the official app store?

Any help would be much appricated. Regards

*UPDATE*

Looks like I was using the wrong sigpatches. Downloaded these new ones and everything work. :biggrin:
 
just FYI for everyone else out there reading this who is also on CFW 10.0.1
if you want to use tinfoil you have to use a modified version of atmosphere NEUTOS fork the bundle already comes with the sigpatches.

if you arent using tinfoil like i am . you need to update sigpatches manually and put them in your atmosphere folder in the root of your sd card.

@Robf23 i am glad you got it going and props to you for that detailed info . . . helping is a lot easier with a detailed message like yours
