Hacking Huge exploit found on firmware 3.0.0: smhax

[TheCyberQuake]

If it was found on 3.0.0, is it working on versions before 3.0.0 as well?

That's already been answered at least 20 times. Yes

Yeah smhax works on 3.0.0 and below.

Will be interested to see which gets cfw that can be updated first, Switch or PS4.

Or actually...would it be impossible for cfw to update on Switch without blowing efuses?

 

[demoncatursday]

Fuck, I'm on 3.0.1

didn't even know anything happened with the Switch

 

[Unk1ng69]

Pretty Excited for whats going to come. glad i stayed on 3.0

 

[Ritsuki]

Well, lucky me, for once I think I haven't updated my Switch yet

So, does that mean, it will work even on 1.0?

 

[DarthDub]

I don't even own a Switch and it updated to 3.0.1 somehow!

 

[queendude]

My switch updated to 3.0.1 even though I don’t have internet connection

it was not found on 3.0.0.
it was found earlier and yes. works on all previous firmwares, too.

@SciresM be careful of leakers and @PokeAcer lol

 

[anhminh]

So what firmware does Switch on the store have right now?

I asked about this supposedly, yes if you update from a cart to 2.0

Okay, thanks! So, natively it doesn't support 1.0, but by updating it to 2.0 by using a cart we will be able to use smhax, right?

It does, but on 1.0 we have no internet browser.

 

[TheCyberQuake]

It does, but on 1.0 we have no internet browser.

There is a browser, it's just harder to get to.

 

[KJ1]

It does, but on 1.0 we have no internet browser.

Okay, thanks! Nice to know that we would be able to use this on 1.0 by updating it using cart!

 

[Langin]

Hey does this work in firmwares lower than 3.0? ;O;

runs

I never bothered to upgrade my switch from the launch day fw (put it on flight mode on a flight few days after launch, never put it back lol), not for conservation or to be able to run hacks easily but just because i hate nagging screens to update. I was never interested in any online modes or buying digital (esp. from nintendo).

With this in mind, and given i prefer to keep it where it is... which games do not need an upgrade from the physically released ones? Was thinking of maybe getting Street Fighter or Arms if i find it cheap and the mario + rabbids game is up my alley too. Do these require/include an upgrade? Which other games would you suggest that do not require an upgrade, from physical (obviously) releases only?

All those titles will be safe to use, since 3.0.1 is not located in any of them, but you will be required to update to 2.xx.

However, newer prints will mostly have the latest fw. There is no point keeping it on 1.00, unless you are a collector and like to have day 1 stock firmware.
