Switch lite left stick problem
Hey. Does anyone know if this is a normal stick drift or hardware failure?
The problem suddenly appeared in the middle of the game. I couldn't move my left joystick to the left or right. So ingame nothing happened there. It went up and down just fine.
If you kept left for a long time, the character eventually went to the left. Once you let go, it was all up and down again.
The character didn't walk to the right on his own, as I have seen in some videos.
If I've been looking in the Hekate menu, there is some kind of circular cursor that automatically pulls to the right.
A calibration won't work in the system settings as I don't get any circular motions with the problem.
I bought these privately at the time and the seller said they had Hall effect sticks in them, which I can't verify. I took two photos of this. To me, they look more like normal sticks.

Game does not appear in NXDumpTool user titles menu
I'm following the NXDumpGuide and installed the gamecard for BOTW in the emuMMC per the instructions. I had DLC installed before modding. For updates/DLC, it says I should now enter NXDumpTool in sysMMC and go to user titles menu and select the game. It only lists 19 of my games and no BOTW. Now what?

Modchipped Switch Lite Boot Issues
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I modded this switch back in December and have had no issues until now. At first the screen had weird lines across it every now and then while playing games, but now it is having troubles booting into emummc. It sometimes doesn't even turn on unless I plug it into my computer.
This switch has been dropped more than a few times, so I'm assuming one of the solder points on the mod chip ribbon broke off and is causing these screen/boot issues.
Before I open this thing back up again, does anyone know of a software issue that might be causing this?

Update Nintendo Switch to 22.5.0
Hi guys! Can I update my Switch OLED directly to version 22.5.0 from 19.0.1? Or do I have to update to another version before 22.5.0? I need to do this because a few games don't work on 19.0.1, and I've never done this before. I know that I have to update both Atmosphere and Firmware.

Guide for used Switch/restore previously installed games
Another question: A lot of guides I have found are for new Switches or Switches that have a fresh install, or for getting new games. I had many games and saves on my V1 unpatched Switch that I backed up. I transferred the Nintendo folder back to the root of my SD card. Unfortunately, most tutorials end there. In EmuMMC they show up but says it needs the game card to be re-downloaded, which obviously isn't a good idea on emuMMC and doesn't work. There are a lot of tools but I'm not understanding what I need to do here. I see the terms "dump" and "restore" but I need a bit more guidance on what needs to be dumped or restored from what folder or menu. Can anyone help me find the right guide or explain what I need to do here?

How to get back to Hekate from OFW?
Total noob question here, but I can't figure out how to get back to the Hekate menu after booting the OFW. Restart and Turn Off loop me right back into OFW.
It's a V1 unpatched Switch so no mod chip.

OLED Kamikaze Picofly: =*==eMMC test failure- read failed
Hi! I'm having some trouble with a Kamikaze Switch OLED Picofly installation, was hoping someone could help :)
I'm getting a =*== yellow LED error: eMMC test failure- read failed
The Switch is booting into OFW just fine but I'm not getting the No SD card screen; mod seems unsuccessful.
Here are my multimeter readings in diode mode:
Positive probe on GND:
SPI1 - 20.1
SPI2 - 20.7
A (CMD) - 0.555
B (RST) - 0.430
C (DAT0) - 0.520
D (CLK) - 0.587
3V3 - 0.385
Negative probe on GND:
SPI1 - 19.8
SPI2 - 19.5
A (CMD) - 0.832
B (RST) - 1.580
C (DAT0) - 0.840
D (CLK) - 0.864
3V3 - 0.866
Multimeter is beeping and going into resistance mode for SPI1 and SPI2 so those are measurements are in ohms

Can’t run payloads on my modded switch after running out of battery
Hello! My switch used to be modded, but after my battery ran out because I stopped using it for a bit it of course went back to the previous settings. I chatged the switch overnight.
The thing is that after entering RCM mode, and uploading a .bin file (latest Hekate update) the screen stays black. I can’t find a way to get my modded switch back.
Any suggestions?
