[Switch] Hekate v6.1.0 and Nyx 1.6.0 available – News and updates posted on LS

The developer CTCaer offers a new version of Hekate which goes to 6.1.0 and Nyx which goes to 1.6.0.

Fixed an issue where emuMMC sector offset scanning failed if the SD card was larger than 1TB.

L4T and ARC changes:

Allow boot partition to be exFAT

This will require updating the boot stack of the different versions of L4T. This is especially important for Lakka and for users who don't want to format.

Significant changes have been made to Arachne for RAM optimization to increase performance and stability.

Several timings have been improved and corrected for T210/LPDDR4 and T210B01/LPDDR4X.

Stability has been improved at higher frequencies for T210/LPDDR4.

This also significantly affects high-density RAM modules, such as in 8GB configurations.

Additionally, they can be enhanced with ram_oc_opt ac mode.

Fixed an issue where timing reduction was sometimes not allowed at 1600 MHz.

A new parameter ram_oc_opt= has been added to support advanced ram occlusion configuration for T210 and T210B01.

Mainly for T210/LPDDR4 users because of low frequencies and others who like to optimize (T210B01/LPDDR4X).

More information in the wiki.

The maximum voltage limit of ram_oc_vdd2 has been increased to 1237mV for T210. T210B01 remains at the Jedec limit of 1175mV.

Fixed issue for DDR200 on T210 when RAM frequency is oc one.

Changes in Nyx v1.6.0

Support for Android 13+'s dynamic partition system has been added, and the system partition size has been increased to 3 GB for the old system (Android 10-11).

Fixed an issue where emuMMC sector offset scanning failed if the SD card was larger than 1TB

Fixed an issue with some SD cards showing incomplete information (e.g. ADATA)

Improved information on fuses (correction of major/minor and addition of analyzed iddq information)

The model names of 3rd generation RAM modules from Hynix and Micron are now displayed correctly.

Hw information will now show RAM information per chip instead of single chip and 2 channels.

The automatic joystick calibration during initialization has been relaxed to fix a drift issue with HAL effect-based joystick mods.

Additionally, this fix has also been incorporated into the USB mode of the Switch to PC gamepad.

Added built-in 6-axis calibration dump for all other Switch SKUs and stick type for Lite for use in L4T.

Added information about the maximum bus speed supported by SD cards and consolidated all UHS classes into a single field.

Added information on some LCD clones and new official revisions.

The fan is now controlled more finely

Changes in BDK

DRAM: Hynix 3rd gen ram has been renamed with the appropriate model name.

DRAM: Added additional information on Micron 3rd generation RAM.

DRAM: Added information on MRR per chip.

HWINIT: reordered sdmmc1 power disable

INPUT: Samsung touchscreen has been renamed to TSP. BH2109 is the date of manufacture.

SE: added functions se_aes_cmac_128, se_aes_crypt_hash and se_aes_iv_updated_clear.

ACTMON: switching to average sampling

MINERVA: Change of pll input divider for 2200-2266 mhz and some other corrections

UTILS: sprintf now rejects NULL-terminated characters for %c

UTILS: allows strtol to parse unsigned integers if the base is 16 and the number is positive
