So I went to boot up today and I kept getting this screen. I've had this switch on cfw for a very long time and never took measures to avoid getting banned, I'm fairly sure the switch was banned so I'm not sure how it could have gotten the newest update.

anyways, I did the usual update my files thing, ive done it many times. Still, the issue was the same. I then tried a brand new SD card and did a fresh install of everything, no change.

I've also tried to select payloads and use fuse, I get the ol' "a fatal error has occured" message similar to what happens when the switch is updated but the cfw is not.

Hekate v6.1.0 menu, all of the launch options produce the unknown pkg1 version error.

Edit: upon further research I found it is possible to get fw updates on a banned swtich, im guessing this is my issue? ironic as it may sound, this is a relief form me, seeing that it takes away the likely unknown.

Just a FYI: Even if you are console banned, you can still update FW, and it will auto update if that setting is enabled in settings.

right as you posted, I discovered the thread talking about that. i dont have auto on, but its very possible my kid would have hit update. my guess is im at the mercy of Atmosphere updating.

Yes, find your jig before turn off AutoRCM, then reboot to OFW.
You are pretty much on 18.0 OFW for sure.
If you dont have emummc on older FW like 17.0.1 or lower, not much you can do at this point.

other than wait for atmosphere/hekate update, right?

    LOL! I'd lmao if they put a gay ride in the little arcade section they have in this walmart. It could be like the horses rides you put quarters in, except it would be like the ambiguously gay duo cartoon & you sit on top of the other guy thats in a "flying" position. LMAO!

    So I drive the 30 miles there, spend $100-$150 on groceries, and drive back home. Still saved $$$ after gas over shopping locally.

    It makes the trip even more worth it if I'm out of my medication and need to stop by the medical dispensary. I try to line the two up to avoid extra trips.

    @AncientBoi, Except the town is pretty MAGA infested. People still flying TRUMP 2016 flags all over. They didnt get the memo the year changed since then. lol.

    They passed a city ordinance last month. No smoking cannabis in public. Not even eating gummies. $300 fine and misdemeanor charge if caught. People can walk down the street smoking cigs and tossing the butts all over, but God forbit someone take a couple puffs of their medication.

    First off, it's recreationally legal here. Secondly, I have a prescription from my doctor and approved by the state. But still a fucking criminal.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Like at bars. Cant sit outside even in the smoking section and take a few puffs. Yet I have to breath the cig smoke from 20 people chain smoking all night in every direction around me.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Honestly I feel like Trump is going to crush Biden just because of the trial
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    They cite
    public health and safety concerns" LMAO!!! Yet they do nothing about the poison drinking water quality.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The look at how they treated me card is powerful within dumb voters
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    A Trump win is certainly a possibility. If he's reelected, 4 more years then no one has to worry about him being president ever again. I survived last time, I'll survive it if there's a next time. Don't know how anyone could vote for the guy, but I'm also not anyone else but me.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Honestly things were cheaper with Trump but that's tounge and cheek could be exactly the same outcome if he won reelection
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    All of the fake "Christians" vote for him even though he's broken like 8 of the 10 commandments... that we know of. Maybe all 10. LOL

    I like when he says stuff like "They are preventing me from talking!!!" Wait. What? You mean the person that is literally talking right now.. is being prevented from talking? LOL! Gag order also does not apply to taking the stand. He's free to say whatever he'd like. lolol
