⚠️ Important: Modifying firmware carries a risk of bricking your device. Always back up your important files before proceeding. To help you further, could you tell me: If the project provides a checksum (SHA256/SHA1) or
What specific device (e.g., MacBook Pro 2011) are you trying to update? What is your target operating system? Are you seeing a specific error message during the process?
2) Verify integrity (strongly recommended)
- If the project provides a checksum (SHA256/SHA1) or a signature:
- Download the checksum file (e.g., exfathax.img.sha256) and the public signing key if available.
- On macOS/Linux:
- Compute checksum:
sha256sum exfathax.img - Compare output to the provided checksum.
- Compute checksum:
- Verify GPG signature if provided:
- Import the maintainer's public key:
gpg --import maintainer.pub - Verify signature:
gpg --verify exfathax.img.sig exfathax.img
- Import the maintainer's public key:
- If verification fails, do not use the image.
Security checklist (actions for users)
- Always verify file checksums and signatures if available.
- Prefer HTTPS downloads and official release pages.
- Run installer scripts only from official sources; inspect scripts before piping to shell.
- Use a dedicated machine or VM for flashing if images are untrusted.
Windows keeps asking to format the SD card
- Normal. Do not format. Use a Linux VM or Hekate’s “USB Mass Storage” tool to add files to the SD card.

Step 2: Inject the Payload
With the Switch in RCM (black screen), connect it to your PC via USB-C.
- On PC: Open TegraRcmGUI. You should see “RCM device detected” in green. Click “Inject Payload” → choose
fusee.bin(Atmosphere) orhekate_ctcaer_x.x.x.bin. The ExFATHAX IMG will now trigger and load Hekate. - On Android: Use Rekado with a USB-C OTG cable. Inject the same payload.
- On Mac: Use
fusee-launchervia terminal.
If successful, the Switch screen will turn on and show the Hekate menu or Atmosphere logo. Congratulations – the ExFATHAX exploit worked.
