GPTUPGRADE payloads is a modified version of GPTRestore, specifically designed to rewrite the eMMC with partition information more conveniently. | |||
'''Note:''' Use at your own risk. Using another eMMC size will probably get you banned. If you plan on using this, be sure to back everything up first. | |||
| | |||
==User guide== | |||
The tool offers different versions of the payloads: | |||
*16 GB (for downgrade - might have geometry wrong on this version) | |||
*64 GB | |||
*128 GB | |||
*256 GB | |||
Once you have rewritten your GPT using these files, restore your INDIVIDUAL partitions and BOOT0 /1 in Hekate. | |||
You may have to do it manually for the USER partition in [[HacDiskMount Switch|hacdiskmount]], to copy your stuff over. This means you will need a rawnand of OLD EMMC to mount your old USER partition (unless you are starting from scratch). | |||
After using these files, in your new eMMC: | |||
* Use BIS key 3 and mount USER in hacdiskmount. | |||
* It will probably say it "needs to be formatted". Format it. | |||
It is now formatted using correct key. Mount your newly formatted USER partition and copy your stuff from your old partition over. | |||
That should be it. Upgrade should be done. | |||

GPTUPGRADE payloads is a modified version of GPTRestore, specifically designed to rewrite the eMMC with partition information more conveniently.
Note: Use at your own risk. Using another eMMC size will probably get you banned. If you plan on using this, be sure to back everything up first.
User guide
The tool offers different versions of the payloads:
- 16 GB (for downgrade - might have geometry wrong on this version)
- 64 GB
- 128 GB
- 256 GB
Once you have rewritten your GPT using these files, restore your INDIVIDUAL partitions and BOOT0 /1 in Hekate.
You may have to do it manually for the USER partition in hacdiskmount, to copy your stuff over. This means you will need a rawnand of OLD EMMC to mount your old USER partition (unless you are starting from scratch).
After using these files, in your new eMMC:
- Use BIS key 3 and mount USER in hacdiskmount.
- It will probably say it "needs to be formatted". Format it.
It is now formatted using correct key. Mount your newly formatted USER partition and copy your stuff from your old partition over.
That should be it. Upgrade should be done.
This is the "geometry" used for your reference:
All bytes are little Endian.
