Rekado VS TegraRcmGUI

When using with your phone, you often need a USB OTG adapter. If you're using Android, I'm assuming you're using Rekado. Here's an excerpt from their GitHub page about this:

RCM Loader is not worth of your money, I suggest you to buy an adapter for your phone, installing Rekado and connect your phone with adapter with your Switch. You need something like this, Adattatore USB-C a USB-A 3.0 OTG, USB Femmina a USB-C Maschio Compatibile con MacBook Pro, Samsung Galaxy, Telefoni di Tipo-C, Tablet e Altro (Nero e Bianco) https://amzn.eu/d/eKTem8B). Be sure that it can transfer files and you save 25-30 bucks. For the jig, I bought on Amazon, idk if you can buy it from here. I heard of some people that "handcrafted" their jig with hairpins, idk if works, you should try

Yes, theres an app https://github.com/MenosGrante/Rekado/releases

Some advice for after you've booted into custom firmware and got it all set up: consider using AutoRCM. It corrupts a single byte in the Switch's bootloader which causes it to boot automatically into RCM after every power cycle, eliminating the need for an RCM jig entirely after the first use. All you need to do then is inject your chosen payload using Rekado (if on Android), or iOUSB (if on iOS).

If you have android phone you can use that use the app called rekado that's what I use https://github.com/MenosGrante/Rekado/releases

After looking into how Atmosphere boots by looking for a reboot_payload.bin which you can have as ANY payload file (mine is Hekate) I've not needed to inject it by hand in a long time. And if I do ever need to I do it with my phone even using Rekado

Rekado: Payload launcher and serial number checker for Nintendo Switch

You're gonna want to use this in conjunction with the proper payload associated with how you modded the switch.

The program you'll need is TegraRcmGUI, but it requires a driver install. You might be able to do this on the computer - it worked for me at the hotel I stayed at last, but that was in Wisconsin.

Go to TegraRCM GitHub page and below assets click on "TegraRCM......installer.msi" it will download, install it, open it from desktop, go to settings tab and try installing the drivers again.

And no you don’t need a dongle. It’s for convenience. You can simply plug your switch into your pc via usb c - usb c (or usb a to usb c) and run this https://github.com/eliboa/TegraRcmGUI

You can find it here. https://github.com/eliboa/TegraRcmGUI

TegraRcmGUI has the ability to mount the SD card in your switch while connected to the PC you can then transfer all the files to it normally

I notice on the git hub that there is a TegraRcmGUI_v2.6_portable.zip that I assume is for an RCM loader but I am unable to find a proper tutorial on specifically Tegra. I really want to convenience of booting my switch mods without having to plug it into my computer every time.

https://github.com/eliboa/TegraRcmGUI/releases it a program that use to inject payload on to switch to run cfw

I use TegraRCMGui to inject the payloads, it has a helpful little picture to tell when your switch is detected.
