I'm on 6.2 right now. Is 7.0.1 fully functional on cfw like sigpatches or should I wait a little longer?
I wouldn't update just yet I see no real benefit.

CFW on 7.0.1 is fully functional. Games and updates are starting to require 7.0.x one way or another, so you might as well update now in order to make things easier on yourself.I'm on 6.2 right now. Is 7.0.1 fully functional on cfw like sigpatches or should I wait a little longer?

You realize the dock is just a piece of plastic to transmit the Switch signal to the TV via HDMI?Will the SX OS external hard drive loader work on any dock, licensed or no?

Humor me, why wouldn't it work?So, it should work on any Dock with a USB Output?

I can't say for sure. but the usb controller is in the switch not the dock. I don't see any reason why not. are you looking to buy a 3rd party dock or do you already have one and looking to buy SXOS ?

I have a new in box switch that has not been patched based on the serial number. I would like to buy some indie games from the eshop and also eventually use CFW.
Q1:
Is there anything wrong with this plan? / is this the right order? Am I missing a restore NAND step?
- Don't go online yet with the switch
- Create a clean NAND backup
- Install CFW (SX OX)
- restore NAND using the clean backup
- Update to latest firmware without burning fuses using the guide floating around here
- Create another NAND backup?
- buy games on the eshop & download?
- go back offline
- Create another NAND backup?
- freely play on my eshop games or CFW (on the same SD card )
Q2:
My likelyhood of getting banned with this plan is pretty low right?
Thank you so much!!
In order to transfer you would need to run homebrew on the unhacked switch. Running homebrew can get you banned.Is it possible to transfer save data from a hacked Switch to an unhacked one without the unhacked Switch or Nintendo account getting banned?
If you use SX OS you are able to create EmuNAND. So you could just update SysNAND and use it for online purpose while you keep EmuNAND offline and use it for backups. Disadvantage is that you update SysNAND to latest firmware and burn fuses. If you don’t want that you should create a clean NAND backup and always restore it when you want to go online (no EmuNAND).I have a new in box switch that has not been patched based on the serial number.

Thank you so much!!
(background on my reasoning, feel free to skip :
I think the best order is to buy games after installing the CFW because i need the latest firmware to access the eshop, and CFW will allow me to update without burning fuses so I will have the ability to downgrade the firmware for whatever reason.)
any list of offline games that need a account linked ? do DLC's work with no linked account ?
only thing I know of for sure that requires a linked account is the nes online app. afaik unless the game has an online mode then offline is fine
Alrighty .. was asking cause someone said some offline games wont work. and when I start Smash Bros says download content work work yet it does any ...

Also are custom themes working on 7.0.1 ? I think I read system wont boot with theme
NXThemes ? or is there another way ? I am using KOSMOS
It was installed with the nxtheme installer on 6.2 with the .nxtheme format iirc. It's possible the .nxthme format is broken on 7.x but previous themes work in my experience.
Using Reinx
Sweet custom theme is working on 7.0.1 after all.. got a nice Zelda theme going now. thanks
