Sorry if this is the wrong forum, its an incredibly n00b question, but I've done as much googling as I can, and can't seem to find an answer, thought I'd ask some folks much more experienced than myself. I have autorcm enabled (not sure if I should have that), and I'm on 9.1 w/ 2.9.4 Beta SX OS. When I power off, and back on, its a black screen (I'm guessing its in recovery mode?), is there a way to get it to boot straight back into SX OS CFW without having to use the Payload Injector each time?

At the moment, no. It does have a cool feature where if it crashes, it will reboot into CFW. However as of now if you turn off your switch, you'll need to inject a payload when you boot.

Thanks for the response, and its good to know. Its not TOO much trouble to reinject every time. I'll just keep it in standby for as long as humanly possible lol.

Yeah I get you. I used to always turn off my switch as I figure leaving it in sleep mode isn't great for the battery (even if left in the dock). However I eventually just started leaving it in sleep mode and I haven't really noticed in negative effects. So don't worry. Granted there are times when you may need to turn off your switch, but as you said it's not too much trouble to reinject each time.

One small piece of advice from a long time sx os pro user...after awhile the dongle will lose it's charge. so if you are going to be out and about with your switch and need to turn it on, make sure you have a way to to give the dongle a little juice if needed. Otherwise you won't be able to boot your switch.
