Vöid 5.0

Vöid is a work-in-progress customized firmware for the Nintendo Switch, based on ScireM's Atmosphere.

This is in no way coded, or made by me, only very slight changes and is intended to be an all-in-one packages to make installing customer firmware painless.

DISCLAIMER

MAKE A NAND BACK UP THROUGH HEKATE BEFORE DOING ANYTHING TO YOUR SWITCH! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

I am not in any way responsible for anything that happens to your Switch, nor would I expect anything to happen. Use at your own discretion. When modifying anything on your Switch you are always at risk at possible damage, or an account ban from Nintendo. Use at your own risk.

How To Use

Download the ZIP, unzip the file to a folder of your choosing. Three folders are included in this pack, SD Card, Payloads and PC. Just drag and drop the contents of the SD Card folder onto the root of your SD Card. Insert it into your Switch and inject Hekate as you normally would. Launch either sysNAND or emuNAND as usual, and you're good to go!

FAQ

What is Vöid?

Vöid is an all-in-one custom firmware for the Ninteno Switch based on Atmosphere, in the same kin as Kosmos, entirely focussing on ease of use for anyone that wants to set up custom firmware on their Nintento Switch without much effort.

I AM NOT INVOLVED WITH OR AFFILIATED IN ANY WAY WITH KOSMOS, OR THE KOSMOS TEAM. THIS IS NOT KOSMOS 2.0.

Why "Vöid"?

Atmosphere is named from the layer of gasses around the world, and Kosmos is named after, well, the Cosmos. Both astronomical in nature, Vöid is named from the emptiness of space, and to "fill the void" of Kosmos.

You said Incognito isn't known to be safe, what else can I do to protect myself?

First of all, do not install pirated games and run them on your account and then connect to the internet. That is a sure way to get banned. If you do want to connect to the internet, and use applications such as Homebrew Appstore, then I'd highly recommend 90DNS

Why Awoo and Goldleaf? Isn't one enough?

Goldleaf is incredible for title management, but can be a bit broken at times at installing games. This is where Awoo comes in, as it works majority of the time.

Does HBG Shop work with this?

Unfortunately no, as this uses Hekate it will not run on Vöid. There are ways around this, but at this time I will not be enabling this.
