A new update has come out which should fix this.Same for me, cannot go online with my own made backups (dumped with cert) using TX.
Can you try updating your SX OS and reporting back?

I don't play online xD I never did with this switch. So I'm 100% safe, btw I don't play the game anymore xDor you
Seems like there could be a potential lawsuit here if it starts affecting non pirates.
But I wouldn't recommend you to go online again until we know more about what's safe and what isn't.
SciresM stated in his post on reddit that certificates of switch games contain game specific information. So you need to inject a certificate of the same game.Has anyone tried injecting a cert from a random cheap legit cart and injecting it into a different game using XCI Explorer? Or are cart certs game specific now? I remember Sky3DS users doing this back in the day to avoid banhammer online.

Lol... I sold a DKCTF today which I dumped :/ now it's possible that the new owner won't be able to play it ?

Maybe you should listen a bit more... This won't only affect pirates that play online; it also affects people that legally obtain used games to play online!you were warned not to go online why do people never listen?
This IS affecting legit game cartridges! However, it's ones that have been copied and being played by others too....doesn't this just affect people who go online with BBB dumps, since the certs are nulled? Haven't heard from anyone who was banned with his own cert and own private dump. I doubt Nintendo would ban legit game cards (and they haven't done that on the 3DS). This will not be "bad for the used market", that's just fear mongering. I doubt that would be legal and Nintendo would get a massive backslash.
My friend was not banned. My friend just showed me the Twitter post regarding legitimate cartridges being banned.What do you mean?
If he has gone online with his original cards,
Why has he been banned???
I didn't misread. I agreed that it is illegal on the seller's side. However, I also emphasized that the buyer is the one getting screwed! It really makes used game purchases a big problem (for those playing online)!You had misread what i wrote: what is illegal is keeping a backup of physical copy of a game after it not being owned by the person who had backup it.

Let's face it, their accountants care way more about the massive "lost" revenue from people selling used games compared to piracy (which only the lawyers care about).
You're daft and stupid.fuck off he said he wanted people playing with a modified console online banned homebrew falls under that twat

@kamesenin888 , did you try the games yourself to test out? I will try it when I get home if the update fixes it, but having read all the posts in the thread (since I am running it and am hoping to help people out ), my understanding was that the update only contained the final portion of the game (which if you had the original, the game would run, but you needed the update to finish the game). Will test either way tonight.L.A. Noire I think a user stated that needed the update to work, if you had it the game runs perfectly, and 1,2 switch is the same story, update and its fixed
It was posted by a user that both games worked, I cannot test atm I just telling what I sawThis was a misconcepcion though. The cart was not banned, but it was actually SX OS not handling carts with the ORIGINAL (self dump) certifications, which was fixed with update 1.1. So right nwo we don't know if cards are actually getting banned. They would if two people used it at the same time, which does create an issue for rented cards and second hand ones.

Sadly you do need a dongle no matter what, or something else (android phone, pc) to deliver the payload. My best bet would be to give them a tutorial and leave everything ready on their phones / pc's so they could do it themselves, or have them buy dongles (SX Pro), and use the licenses for another switch (i have a second SX Pro in case my switch gets banned or something happens since I do a lot of testing for this thread).
@dashkiller I had something similar happen (not sure if it is the same issue though), my console looked like it had the battery drained, as I tried shutting off (15 second hold) and it would still show a black screen. I would take out the dongle, put it back on, and nothing. I thought maybe leaving the dongle plugged in depleted the battery on the switch while I was driving, so i plugged it into my powerbank, and after a few hours, nothing. I then plugged the dongle into the power bank to restore a charge to it, and after that my switch finally booted.
What I'm saying is that my switch entered RCM mode since I have Auto RCM enabled, but the dongle had no charge to deliver the payload, so it kept going to RCM blank screen. When i finally got the system to work (i had only left it "charging" for 10 minutes), the switch was at 90% charge. I hope this helps in some way. If not, let me know if the issue keeps happening to see if we ca help you find either a solution, or at least better understand what could be causing it in the first place.
No problem, I will confirm this tonight then, to make sure we still have the most accurate information possible (and avoid people getting the wrong idea ) Thanks for the comment!It was posted by a user that both games worked, I cannot test atm I just telling what I saw
It will might work but it's still not safe. Nintendo can detect if a game uses a cert which doesn't fit to it. Don't do this, you will certainly get a ban sooner or later.So I can put my Zelda cert on other games and it’ll work!????
I’m gunna try it after work todayIt will might work but it's still not safe. Nintendo can detect if a game uses a cert which doesn't fit to it. Don't do this, you will certainly get a ban sooner or later.
