Hi, everyone

I have 1 emuMMC on a sd card and would like to share this card between different switches (I have some).

IIRC, the content of the eMMC is encrypted (with BIS keys?),

so I assume that in order to use this emuMMC on other switches,

it needs to get decrypted ( and edit some files inside?) then encrypted using other switches' keys.

Is this correct ? If so, is there any guide/tools to do this or anyone know the exact steps to do this?

Want to know if it's very hard or time-consuming to do this.

Thanks!!

Not only is it encrypted with console unique keys but there is console unique data in the NAND itself that won't work on another Switch. Until someone figures out exactly how to modify or replace the console unique data to work on another Switch, it's not possible.

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But you still don't know what it was?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Has he had seizures before?
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    apparently stress can cause seizures, my brother had one during a test once
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had one before that, and never had one since
