Hi,
I am gland that your team still support is.
But hearead about feature that Atmosfere CFW have - it is proper shutdown for AutoRCM user. Looking to have similar way to shutdown the console without kicking it to boot to RCM after shutting it down. Lot of users first time using AutoRCM does not know about this thing.

Hi Gland, so if you go into options when you should be able to turn off the power that way - via the SX OS interface NOT standard Nintendo Switch way - this disables auto-rcm and avoids power-drain issues. You can also - allegedly - just insert your dongle a couple of seconds after turning it off via the usual method i.e pressing the power button down and selecting power off on the Switch menu - the dongle will flash green and it is then powered off.

I have had battery desync problem before and only thing is to use PC to boot to Hekate and apply desync fix and charegeup console a bit and fully charge in CFW. But console still will kick back to RCM. So as i stated it is must have...

Ah okay, so hold the + while booting, enter SX Menu and use Power Off, then the switch would be fully off?
