NXThemes Installer
~4 min read
NXThemes Installer (exelix11, part of SwitchThemeInjector) installs .nxtheme files to customize the Switch home menu — background, icons, sound effects, more.
Features
- Browse and install
.nxtheme from SD
- Built-in ThemeShop browser (themezer.net etc.)
- Multi-theme (Lock / Home / All Apps / Settings together)
- BGM replacement (with .bcstm)
- One-tap reset to stock
Setup
- Download
NXThemesInstaller.nro from GitHub.
- Drop into
/switch/NXThemesInstaller/.
- Requires CFW (Atmosphère).
- Launch via hbmenu → pick from ThemeShop or SD → Install.
HOS-update breakage: new HOS releases can change theme formats, leaving old themes unbootable. Always reset to stock theme before HOS updates.
Relation to the secretchat.tel loader
NXThemes Installer and our loader both run under Atmosphère, sharing the same SD. Themes only change stock OS visuals, so they don't affect loader behavior. Reset to stock theme before HOS updates applies to loader users too.
