hekate 6.0.0 changes

  • L4T Loader
    Mandatory for new L4T releases and especially for Mariko support.
    Coreboot is no more (Still supported until everything gets updated though).
  • R2P for Mariko. Will be used by L4T.
  • Auto HOS power off will blink 3 times on OLED panels now
    The previous method of slow fade out doesn't work on OLED panels, so blink instead.
  • Changed battery enough limits
    Increased by 50-100mV. As always if you see the hekate battery empty icon, charge your switch, otherwise it can easily randomly shut off.
  • Various improvements/fixes

  • Added no border and colorized combo for launch options

  • Make all backup/restore options to always use 4 MB for BOOT0/1 partitions
    Adds better compatibility with custom eMMCs that have bigger boot partitions

  • Added more SD vendors
  • Various improvements/fixes

  • BQ24193: Remove charger forced enable
    Any software that depends on that should properly manage the charger via the gpio instead of randomly disabling it

  • Various improvements/fixes

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.
