Please never ever stop making these high quality in-depth Nintendo Switch modding tutorials. No other Switch-focused tutorials on KZbin are as clear and concise as yours. You don't even skimp on the all-important 'backup' part of the process and tell people to just "go watch that one video I made from 4 years ago" even though you've already demonstrated the same process time and time again in previous other tutorials. Which is tedious work but one that I fully respect and admire. So keep doing what you're doing man.

[@sthetixofficial]

Thank you :)

[@BloodTek]

Even tho I sold my switch for a laptop but I still enjoy watching your videos.

[@thelopenator]

I'm not getting any video on tv when I dock this. update. docked is broken and a fix will be available soon via ota

[@andersonocardoso2524]

You're the best mate, thank you for this updated video.

[@sthetixofficial]

No problem 👍

[@Krealer]

Agreed

[@TUBESOCK25]

The goat is back at it thanks

[@jimzcoi]

the best thing in moded switch is that you can just change the SD card with different setup and bam! you now have android tv

[@Jbb08]

Thank you so much I was literally preparing the files to do this on your older video when this one popped up TODAY awesome work thank you 😍👍

[@sthetixofficial]

You are welcome.

[@Jbb08]

@@sthetixofficial Ok so I did your tutorial up to flashing Android, it loads the Lineage splash then goes black and returns to Hekate, I have a hwfly4.3 on OLED, does this mean my mod chip does not support Android?

[@Jbb08]

I reached out to the mod chip installer and he said of the last 12 mods he installed 6 would allow him to install Android, and 6 would not, the only difference between them all was SD card type, he said its not Mod chip based but rather on SD card speed type, so I purchased the Sandisk Extreme Pro and tried it with no EmuMMC just hekate and android, but still when I get to the Flash Android it goes through great, I get the LineageOS splash image, but it goes black then restarts, mod chip kicks in and delivers its job then I am back to Hekate, any other ideas I can look at? @sthetixofficial

[@whoswho4498]

great guide as always sthetix

[@sthetixofficial]

thank you

[@andrewstewrt2141]

it worked well on my 2017 switch

[@Skipperc3po]

And again a super Video .,Thank you very much👍👍👍👍👍😃

[@sthetixofficial]

you are welcome

[@jaysonnulud]

I was able to flash lineage os 21 using your tutorial. Joycons work on ui but not within a geforce now game. geforce now is reporting that no controller is detected. any thoughts?

[@dalio123]

great tutorial, i'd just like to add that you can skip the whole emummc thing if you only want android and don't care about switch os.

[@nfernando3]

if i try to install android and in case my switch not compatible with android installation, will my switch error? use hwfly on switch

[@sthetixofficial]

it does not. you need to flash your hwfly to the hwfly-nx to support android

[@jaysonnulud]

how do I upgrade if I currently have android 11 on a separate partition on emummc?

[@sthetixofficial]

u cannot.. u need to wipe it

[@eebenitez373]

Is there a guide to flash Android to half of ghe SysNAND? That way it can run from fhe eMMC rather than the SD Card.

[@sthetixofficial]

no. u must remove the emmc and replace it with a larger capacity one. it is a hassle and not worth at all

[@tggorudon2551]

Does it work with picofly or is it instinct nx v6? Or both work?

[@sthetixofficial]

I think it work for pico and instinct

[@dalio123]

tried on picofly and v1 console. works flawlessly.

[@MrCANER06]

Are there any differences between this version and Android 11 when it comes to performance ?

[@sthetixofficial]

yes if u read the comments. it is a huge leap of updates. you can try it

[@MrCANER06]

@@sthetixofficial I did. I´ll definitely try this. How much higher is the performance (in games, emulation) on ANDROID 14 against ANDROID 11 if you would give a percentage as a benchmark ?

[@sthetixofficial]

I havent tried it but I read the comments on x, it says the update is great

[@MrCANER06]

@@sthetixofficial Ok I´ll give it a try anyway. I did cut the Vbus, D+ and D- wires by the way and everything works just fine. Thanks for your replies. I truly appreciate your work. Your are the game console modding KING on the internet imo. Keep up the good work bro !

[@sthetixofficial]

@MrCANER06 Thank you.

[@hypnosis70]

Please use text guides everyone. Thank you

[@sthetixofficial]

text guides dont work for those who cannot read and visualize

[@ScruffyITA]

tnk you very much for this video. i was looking for a tutorial days ago and didnt belive it was possible on oled models. what are the vantage to use android ? dolphin or what ? does triforce also works ?

[@gonrico]

What is this good for? any suggesstions?

[@sthetixofficial]

good for experience and experiments

[@birkbecker6201]

An eMMC Boot Guide would be great

[@sthetixofficial]

boot from the emmc? it is not worth as we should upgrade the emmc with a higher capacity

[@birkbecker6201]

​@@sthetixofficial32 GB for Android is more than enough. That leaves 26gb for the stock. The v1 has 29gb, right?

[@sthetixofficial]

what do u mean? u need 29gb for the hos, we need to replace the emmc to a larger one and later it will be a hassle to backup the console nand. for me it is not worth at all.

[@notrealaccount2023]

I already have Android 11, how can I upgrade to 14?

[@sthetixofficial]

u need to wipe it all, cannot upgrade directly from 11

[@Sufiley]

should i upgrade? im already on android 11

[@andrewstewrt2141]

yes it has priviacy updates and apps can only send notifications if you allow it

[@GigaTronic501]

First 😊

[@LordGojo-]

hi

[@andrewtimmins]

hi there i followed the guide but as i got to the restore emmc i dont have rawnandbin.00 i only have rawnandbin.05+06

[@sthetixofficial]

I think you did not backup the emummc properly. or your sdcard was full at that time

[@andrewtimmins]

@@sthetixofficial thanks for the reply, i followed everything in the video and the sd card i use is 512gb and it had 400gb free, its not a problem though im not looking at ever going back to stock fw so i should be okay i just carried on with the install and it works. Thankyou for help and keep making these videos :)

[@sthetixofficial]

@andrewtimmins You are welcome
