Hardware I somehow got my hands on a EDEV Switch unit... What to do with it?

[Viri]

Looks like OP has taken his twitter off and stuff on reddit... oh well.

Well, at least people got the dumps of the edev Switch, right?

Yep.

You seriously need to look up information. fail0verfl0w's switch-linux was first and Shiny went on to use their code because it was open-sourced.

My point is, is that he is not going to make open-sourced projects with the EDEV if he had it. I don't know why you're obstinate.

I might have got my timeline wrong, sure. He still contributed to libnx, Yuzu, and even made his Joy-Con driver for Linux public and open-source.
And why wouldn't he ? I don't see any relevancy between your "proofs" and your point. I am obstinate because I firmly am against misinformation and the spread of it.

Ok, you do you, don't know why you would make such a big deal out of this in the first place...

Simply trying to understand your reaction. Why would it be bad if he had an EDEV ?
ReSwitched is known to have an EDEV (see SwitchBrew edits), yet they haven't shared any of their work for it, or any of the data on it. It's even barely documented. How is that any better ?

 

[Pluupy]

But he is sharing (c) material on the inter webs with keys and everything... I can't believe they can not do anything against that?

Besides copyright infringement type of deals, no. They have no legal authority over OP.

Some news website linked here. The posts by the OP are trashed too.

From https://www.polygon.com/2018/6/22/1...hack-super-mario-odyssey-luigis-balloon-world

DevMenu appears to have been leaked to the public after a member of the Switch hacking community purchased a developer kit on eBay. A poster on the Switch Haxing subreddit and GBAtemp forums said they bought a “defective” Switch from a seller, which turned out to be an EDEV unit — a console intended for software developers. The buyer has since deleted their original Reddit post in which they asked what they should do with it; multiple posters suggested sending it or dumping its software data so homebrew developers and hackers could study it. It appears that shortly afterward, a torrent containing the EDEV unit’s data was uploaded to an anonymous storage service.

The DevMenu leak did not come from this person's dump. Someone else extracted files from a leaked SDK+decrypted+shared it.

Sorry for the big upping, but I've been working on hekate for dev units, would the OP like to try it?
It maybe won't boot but I hope it does.
EDIT: Retail hekate should work


(btw while I'm here nope DevMenu actually comes from that dump, people recovered it using TestDisk on it as the NCA was deleted )

In hekate-ipl.ini just set

dev=1

Would you like a premade build?

OP sent the system to a dev (Shiny Quagsire I believe) and then promptly disappeared from the internet.

Do you have a source on how they recovered it?

 

[thomasnet]

That's the way I did it. Other people may have done it with another way.

I know this is old but the Master Key list is on the Pirate Bay.

Could you explain how exactly you use testdisk to recover the DevMenu from a NAND dump? (Asking because I would like to see what other deleted files might remain)

I already tried using some things on it, there’s some NCAs with the title ids of Splatoon 2, Nintendo Labo Variety Pack, Mario and Rabbids Kingdom Battle, Devmenu, a browser for 3.X, and some other game that I don’t remember the name of. Most of them seem corrupt in some way or are missing title keys, but one of the LABO ones is in perfect condition.

Is it still possible to get the nand dump and keys please ? if so can one of you lovely people pm me thank you

Eh, if the mods don't care, you shouldn't either.

They actually care since this data is still stored on their servers.

I think they would rather he clicked the report button rather then bother another user about breaking a rule, if they did break a rule a mod will handle it.
