Overview

Switcheroo

A CLI and GUI for the RCM BootRom exploit (Fusée Gelée exploit for Nintendo Switch)

Only works on unpatched Switches: https://ismyswitchpatched.com/

Written in Rust using clap for the CLI and egui for the GUI.

Features

CLI interface
GUI interface
Works on MacOS and Linux (Windows support is WIP)

Usage

The binary name is switcheroo

To display application use switcheroo help
Use switcheroo <subcommand> help for help with that subcommand.

Examples

Execute a payload.
switcheroo execute <path>

Check if the switch is connected.
switcheroo device

Start the GUI.
switcheroo gui

Troubleshooting

Linux: Permission denied error

On many linux systems the usb control is blocked by default.

This can be fixed by adding the following file:
/etc/udev/rules.d/99-switch.rules
with the following content:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="057e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3000", MODE="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0955", ATTRS{idProduct}=="7321", MODE="0666"

then reload the udev rules:
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules

Finally unplug and plug back in the switch.

Linux: Flatpak not detecting Switch

Due to a limitation of flatpak not allowing access to udev, the flatpak version only works if the Switch is already in rcm mode and plugged in when it is launched. If the application is launched without these conditions being met, it will never show RCM OK

Add new gui images

Hi there, I really like Switcheroo and I had fun making new images for the GUI. I'm by no means a professional artist, but I still hope you like them. Any feedback is welcome :)

Merge GUI changes and other stuff
Changes:

Slight UI overhaul. (Still imperfect, will test around with new layouts)

Most buttons are now very cool icons! 🥳 (Need to find fitting icons for loading and removing favorites)

The aforementioned buttons have tooltips (hover text)

Added favorites feature to GUI.

Added reset button, allows for injecting multiple times without app restart.

Added darkmode toggle and made darkmode the default. (Maybe autodetect dark/light theme from OS?)

Symbols are now stripped on the release profile by default, small binary sizes are cool. 😎

Important notes:

Data directory is changed from <data_dir>/favorites to <data_dir>/switcheroo/favorites/ (Makes more sense, atleast on my linux system, don't know how the structure on windows and MacOS is.

There is some commented out code from my first attempt on the payload manager (which failed lol)
