Nah I'd say either stay on 5.1 or update to 6.1 using ChoidujourNX so you can still enjoy your CFW, why would you go back to 6.2 ? As long as you don't need to boot without going through RCM (which you won't if you always boot to SXOS) everything will be fine. If you don't want to bother with the jig you can just activate autoRCM.
Here is the topic for ChoidujourNX : https://gbatemp.net/threads/choiduj...ller-homebrew-for-the-nintendo-switch.513416/
You're striking a valid point there...

If you don't mind booting into CFW every time you put your console to sleep then Stay on the lower firmware. If you do mind, update back to 6.2 and wait it out.
From what I understand (which is not much and not very precise) they are on different eMMC modules, so basically on different flash drives, so I guess that's why they are dumped separately. If anyone who reads that has more knowledge and feels like correcting me if I'm wrong please go ahead

they likely are, but a dumper could still append the two boot files to the end of a nandbackup and a restorer could grab them from that file.
But now you're creating "artificial files" as opposed to raw dumps. Plus, you now have to reformat restoration tools to accept the "artificial files". And since Hekate is the main tool to restore the NAND with, I'm very doubtful CTCaer would implement such a thing. Not to mention people won't realize their NAND backup is made up of 3 different files now so if they need an individual component, they'll need to redump and...it would create too many headaches.
You wont be able to restore OFW unless you didnt burn fuses. You're stuck for now. Lots of homebrew dont work on 6.2. You just need to wait until 6.2 exploit is released. Fuse count 8 is gonna stop you from doing a lot of recommended things on this thread.
No it won't as long as he uses a custom bootloader, since they bypass fuse checks. So if he wants to boot SXOS on 5.1 or 6.1 it will work just fine.
I have a quick question regarding restoring an old NAND. Does anyone know if Save data is tied to the NAND? I accidentally updated to 6.2.0 and wanted to restore to 6.1.0 but didn't want to lose save data in the progress if a hack tool is around the corner.
as far as i know, is nand restore pretty much takes your switch back in time to the point of when the nand was made. so any games, saves you made after the nand back-up will be gone.
Yeah it will restore your saves just as they were when you did the backup. If you want to keep saves that have been made between the backup and the unfortunate update you can use HacDiskMount to explore your eMMC and extract them manually : https://gbatemp.net/threads/biskeyd...c-decryption-real-time-mounting-tools.502434/
Ok, did a nand restore with boot0 and boot1 and then rawnand.bin and it all went without errors. (backup to 4.1 from 6.2)
Still cant get it to work though. Trying to load reinx payload with tegrarcm give me "invalid package2 error"
any suggestions?

That sounds like a problem with your ReiNX installation rather than with your nand. Try reinstalling everything ReiNX related from the latest version. If it doesn't work try booting Atmosphere or even the stock firmware using the latest Kosmos bundle.
Same error after re-install of ReiNX. (tried 2 different versions) and also same error message with the atmosphere payload.
Tried to launch CFW from bootloader gives me "unknown package1, failed to launch firmware) same error when trying to launch stock.
Booting to OFW gives bluescreen.
I think that this is not possible to fix once you have been on 6.2 and restore back?

Hmm it must be a nand problem after all then, one last thing you can try is to follow this tutorial to reinstall a full clean firmware :
https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...nofficially-without-burning-any-fuses.507461/
I also tried that guide yesterday. got error with keys.txt and later gave up.
There is no way to retrieve the keys with 8 burnt fuses it seems. I always get error with biskeydump and it cant retrieve the tsek key.
I am out of ideas atm.

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
