hekate-nyx-banner

Supports booting ALL current CFWs, Android/Linux booting and payload tools.
No more SD card removals

Supports: Erista (T210) and Mariko (T210B01) units

Latest HOS supported: 17.0.1

hekate v6.1.0 changes

  • Fixed an issue where emuMMC sector offset parsing was failing if SD card was bigger than 1TB.
  • L4T and ARC changes:
    • Allow boot partition to be exFAT
      This will need an update of the bootstack of various L4T releases. Mostly important for Lakka and for users that do not want to format.
    • Significant changes were done to Arachne for RAM OC to increase performance and stability
    • Several timings were improved and corrected for both T210/LPDDR4 and T210B01/LPDDR4X
    • Stability was improved for higher frequencies for T210/LPDDR4
      It also significantly affects high density ram modules like in 8GB configurations
      Additionally, they can be improved extra with the ram_oc_opt ac mode also.
    • Fixed an issue where sometimes timing reduction was not allowed on 1600 MHz
    • A new ram_oc_opt= parameter was added to support advanced ram oc configuration for both T210 and T210B01.
      Mostly for users with T210/LPDDR4 because of low frequencies and others that like to optimize (T210B01/LPDDR4X).
      Read more in wiki.
    • ram_oc_vdd2 max voltage limit was raised to 1237mV for T210. T210B01 remains at Jedec max of 1175mV.
    • Fixed an issue for DDR200 on T210 when RAM frequency was oc one

Nyx v1.6.0 changes

  • Support was added for Android 13+ dynamic partition scheme and also raised system partition size to 3GB for legacy (Android 10-11)
  • Fixed an issue where emuMMC sector offset parsing was failing if SD card is bigger than 1TB
  • Fixed an issue with some sd cards showing incomplete info (e.g. ADATA)
  • Improved fuses info (corrected major/minor and added parsed iddq info)
  • 3rd-gen RAM modules model name from Hynix and Micron are now shown properly
  • Hw info will now show per chip ram info instead of single chip and 2 channels.
  • Joycon auto calibration on init was relaxed to fix an issue with drifting with HAL effect based joystick mods.
    Additionally, that fix was also incorporated in the Switch to PC gamepad USB mode.
  • Added built-in 6axis calibration dumping for all the rest Switch SKUs and stick type for Lite for use in L4T
  • Added info for sd card max supported bus speed and consolidate all UHS classes into one field.
  • Added info about some LCD panel clones and new official revisions
  • Fan is now controlled in a finer way

BDK Changes

  • DRAM: Hynix 3rd gen ram was renamed to the proper model name.
  • DRAM: Added extra info about Micron 3rd gen ram.
  • DRAM: Added per chip MRR info
  • HWINIT: reordered sdmmc1 power disable
  • INPUT: Samsung touch panel was renamed to just TSP. BH2109 is manufacture date.
  • SE: Added se_aes_cmac_128, se_aes_crypt_hash and se_aes_iv_updated_clear functions
  • ACTMON: changed to average sampling
  • MINERVA: Change pll input divider for 2200-2266 mhz and some other fixes
  • UTILS: sprintf will now reject NULL terminated characters for %c
  • UTILS: allow strtol to parse unsigned integers if base is 16 and number is positive

FAQ

Click to expand FAQ notes

  • Which Linux/Android distributions are supported in Partition Manager?
    For L4T Linux you can use the official Ubuntu Bionic 3.4.0 and newer or any other distro betas.
    For android you can get Android 10.

  • I don't care about emuMMC/Linux/Android. Can the Part manager be used for something else?
    Yes. You can still reformat your SD card to a single FAT32 partition.
    You can even use it when you have exFAT and you want to format to FAT32.
    It is also suggested to format your sd card via hekate. That's because it prepares it for performance. something that many partitioning tools neglect.

Notes

Check readme.md for more.

NOTE:
For maximum performance of UMS in Windows, you need to run nyx_usb_max_rate__run_only_once_per_windows_pc.reg, only once per PC you have.
It only affects hekate's usb device. You can also view that file with text editor and see what it does. Linux/Mac OS users do not need that.

How to update:

  • Drag n drop bootloader folder into sd card root and hit merge/replace.
    No need to delete that folder first, especially if you want your configs and payloads.
  • You can choose to update your RCM injection device or PC with the new hekate_ctcaer_x.x.x.bin or not.
    In any case, bootloader/update.bin, will be checked and if newer it will get loaded.
    update.bin is hekate and it is already copied with the bootloader folder drag n drop update process.

Notice about Atmosphere 1.0.0 and up: The fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin in hekate_ipl.ini must be changed to fss0=atmosphere/package3. And make sure that atmosphere/contents folder does not have old Atmosphere components.
Notice about resized emuMMC: Resized emuMMC does not have the slow bug anymore. You can create a new one or recreate it via Nyx and the issue will be gone.
