Using a custom DNS (or a limited connection) it's not possible to update your clock with Nintendo's servers and the Switch appears to gain some minutes each month. With QuickNTP, you can now quickly update your clock connecting to a public [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Time_Protocol NTP] server using [https://github.com/WerWolv/libtesla Tesla]. '''Note:''' This program alters NetworkSystemClock, which could potentially result in a desync between console and servers. Use at your own risk. ==Features== * Update the time by selecting from a list of servers customizable. * Show the current offset compared to the selected server * Set the internal network time to the time set by the user in system settings (time traveling, yay!) ==Installation== Requires Tesla overlay ([[Tesla Menu Switch|Tesla-Menu]] and [[NX-ovlloader Switch|nx-ovlloader]]) installed. Copy the .ovl file in <code>/switch/.overlays/</code>. (Optional) Copy the .ini file in /config/ in the same directory. Alternatively, use the [[Homebrew App Store Switch|HB App Store]] to install nx-ovlloader, Tesla-Menu and QuickNTP. === Customize servers === Since v1.5.0, you can create or modify the provided <code>quickntp.ini</code> file, with the following syntax: <pre class="language-ini">[Servers] My_Ntp_Server = ntp.example.com</pre> Underscores will be replaced by spaces in the UI! The homebrew will look for the file in the following locations (the first valid file will be used): * /config/quickntp.ini * /config/quickntp/config.ini * /switch/.overlays/quickntp.ini '''Note''': If the file is missing or invalid, only the <code>NTP Pool Main</code> server will be shown. ==User guide== Start the Tesla overlay with L+D-Pad-Down+Right Stick (no need to restart the console). Then select QuickNTP from the menu. The "Synchronize Clock via Internet" option should be enabled in System settings [https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22557/p/989/c/188 as described here], since this program changes the "Network clock" (immutable in settings). ===Disclaimer=== Please don't send a lot of requests. NTP servers should be requested in 36 hours intervals. This program changes NetworkSystemClock, which may cause a desync between console and servers. Use at your own risk. It is recommended that you only use the changed clock while offline, and change it back as soon as you are connected (either manually or using ntp.org server.) ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/quickntpnx2.png ==Changelog== '''1.6.0''' * 4MB heap support ([https://github.com/nedex/QuickNTP/pull/16 #16]) (thanks to [https://github.com/ppkantorski @ppkantorski]) * Inverse order priority for config file as originally intended '''1.5.2''' * Updated to latest libnx for Atmosphere 1.10.0 support. * Confirmed working on HOS 21.0.0 ([https://github.com/nedex/QuickNTP/issues/15 #15]). * Working as usual on previous firmwares.
