I searched everywhere and all seems to be outdated.
I'm running 6.2 with the latest SX OS 2.5.3
Looks like only way to update firmware is using ChoiDujour.

I downloaded the latest ChoiDujour110.zip and not sure what to do after.
Is there a guide on how to do this?
Any help is much appreciated.

Is really simple

Here is the official threado about that
https://gbatemp.net/threads/choiduj...ller-homebrew-for-the-nintendo-switch.513416/

First you need to download the firmware you want to use

Then put that folder you just download on the root of the SD Card

Open choidujournx and navigate to the folder of the update. Select wich version do you wanna install (ExFat or Fat32). Le it update your switch and done

there's nothing different. Just be sure you're on emunand when you run choi... I just did it today to bring my emunand up to 7.0.1.

Hi there, I'm about to do this myself - did you update emunand with choi before updating the sxos fw or did you install the latest sxos first before updating emunand? Appreciate any advice!

Is better if you first update SX OS, because firmware 7.x.x only is supported by SXOS 2.6.1.

So you can't connect to Nintendo using EMUNAND to update to the latest firmware?

You can if you are not banned and you need to turn off Stealth Mode.

I dont recommended this, because the ban risk, but your choice

That’s it

Si os is the most friendly user cfw. Is practically plug and play

Emunand is an exact copy of your nand. You can use to have all your cfw stuffs on it and you can still using your sysnand to all your retails and online. Just make sure to never run cfw stuffs online

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    never had that i don't think
