Is it safe now to update to FW 9.0.1 using SX 2.9.2, or are there still too many bugs that I should stay put on FW 8.1.0?
NoHello everyone !
I recently hacked my Switch and would like to turn it into a dev kit, is this possible ? Thanks
It handles up to 2 TBDoes the switch handle big micro sd card?
I have a 128g and plan to buy a 256g.
I believe you can try mounting it with hacdiskmount.Hey. Is there a way to test a full backup before restoring it, on my computer? I have a backup which may be corrupted so I'd like to check it, as it's my only clean NAND backup.
Both are fine. The best course of action would be to utilize a second SD card that is formatted to exFAT and restore the NAND with that card but if you don't have one, splitting the NAND may be a good compromise.I want to resore my nand but my backup is 30GB big should I format the sd card to exFat or should I split the nand into parts again so I can copy it on my fat32 sd card?
No games require firmware 9.X. Stay on 8.1 for the time being.Is it safe now to update to FW 9.0.1 using SX 2.9.2, or are there still too many bugs that I should stay put on FW 8.1.0?
Any games installed with Atmosphere work with SX OS.i currently use atmo/kosmos on 9.0 but i bought an sx os license. How can i change to SX os without losing all installed games?
Yes since you can only enter emuMMC with a custom bootloader and all custom bootloaders bypass the fuse check although I do not know why you would ever want to boot a lower firmware on emuMMC.If i update my sysnand and burn fuses, will i be able to enter emummc on a lower firmware?
If you have Incognito, you cannot do anything online that involves Nintendo. This includes system updates since the files are grabbed from Nintendo's servers.If I have incognito, can I just go online to update my CFW emuNAND?
I'm a bit paranoid that stuff like the joy con serials be used to ID my console when going online with a clean OFW sysNAND...
Or is choidujournx still the best way to update it?
No

Are you sure the game cannot be patched to a lower firmware version? Double check with NSC_BuilderValfaris needs FW 9. Been looking forward to that one.
Is your SD card formatted as exFAT?So I updated tinfoil to 5.1 and got hung up at switch logo. So I reinstalled reinx and still stuck at switch logo. I have replaced and deleted all the tinfoil files of as card. Still hangs at switch logo. Ofw boots fine. Running 8.1 with reinx 2.4 latest stable release. Any ideas besides reformat as card? Even replace payload bin as well.
I do not believe you can send payloads with Chromebooks but you can setup CFW with a Mac, Linux, Android, or even jailbroken iOS device.I have an unpatched system I want to use the RCM mode with. Can I do the RCM method with Chrome OS? Also, is loading the cfw possible without a Windows PC or is Windows required to do this?
Hey there! I've been watching the homebrew progress for a while but didn't want to hack my Switch because I'm afraid of bans. But now it is possible to run a emuNAND completely on a microSD. Looks really safe, so I want to try this out. Before I start I have some questions and I'd be pleased if you could answer them.
1. What size should the microSD card have at least when I want to store my cardriges on it (have about 10 games, mostly AAA titles like Zelda BOTW, Odyssey, SSBU, FETH, ..)?
2. Is a normal microSDXC U1 card fine or should I buy a fast one with U3 (more speed reading/writing)?
3. Can I play on my cardriges when I'm running atmosphere?
4. Can I play the savegames I currently have on the cfw/atmosphere? When I save my progress in the game while playing on atmosphere, is that save also available on the normal system? i.e. I want to cheat in Odyssey and get myself some coins - can I do this while playing on cfw and then continue on the normal system?
5. The homebrew store and EdiZon have online features like downloading themes and cheats. When I'm using a cfw I should avoid getting online, is that correct? Does that mean I should download this stuff on the PC and copy to the Switch?
That should be all for now. Thanks in advance for the help!
You can just copy files from one SD card to another.Thank you for the quick reply.
Another question: How much effort does it take to change the microSD? I own a 64GB microSD already and could start with it. But when there is no storage left and I buy a new card, do I have to setup everything again?
Additional to question no. 4: so even if I install the CFW on the microSD (emuNAND) the savegame location stays on the console and I can mess with them (of course we are talking about offline savegames)?
How safe is 90DNS?
That involves using either Switch LAN Play or Xlink Kai for the Nintendo Switch.Very stupid question: there is a way to play online with CFW? I know i cannot use the Nintendo online, but i clearly remenber see that there was a method for play (ex Mario Kart) with distand firends like i was using the online. I also remenber see a video on this regard, but of course Nintendo got that video snap out of existence. So...is possible?
Maybe, if you want to follow a guide to catch you up to speed on the basics of hacking a Switch.Heya all, I have a question. It's been about a year since I hacked my switch to run CFW and now that I have more free time and the Zelda game came out I'd like to get back into the mix however I know I would need firmware 8.1 and I am pretty sure I don't have that version and honestly almost completely forgot how to use all things involved like ChoiDujour, etc. Do you guys recommend me starting brand new and erasing all my SD card data since I forgot everything or what?
Considering it deletes all current user accounts and creates a new linked one, yes, your saves will be gone. That is why you should back them up with Checkpoint first. Back them all up to SD card. User kefir-updater (ONLY SELECT CREATED LINKED ACCOUNT!!!). Once it's done and rebooted, you can then edit the name and picture of the local account, and restore your saved data again using Checkpoint.@Draxzelex
was wondering if your familiar with Kefir-updater?
i see you can add a linked acct. that way but some say you loose all your saved data and profiles, on github there is no mention of this issue. not sure if they were using atomsphere cause they were saying not to use edizon and so forth. havent done much search on it as i just got home and was reading while at work and now its late. appreciate any amswer as you are always here it seems.
