It's okay.Wow, am I salty... Sorry to the mod that has to read this.
GIVE ME THE SIX HUNDRED ALREADY.
I've been bitching about this for years but I know that nothing will change. I just keep getting anger bursts where the amount of salt produced is insane.It's okay.
They sell for around $200 on eBay.Lol get your own unpatched switch

Software exploits exist in firmwares up to and including fw 7.xSoftware exploit above 4.x.x may never exist. Only way to mod any new switch now is through a modchip
SciresM and every other big name Switch hacker who has contributed anything meaningful to the scene has already said that it's impossible to hack a firmware above 7.0. Not that it's unlikely or that it will take years but that it is 100% mathematically impossible to achieve it even if you understood the Switch's operating system perfectly. The only chance we have is if Nintendo releases a new firmware update and accidentally adds vulnerabilities to it (this did happen on firmware 3.0.0).Why shouldn't I? The modding community has always been THIS CLOSE to finally discovering a second exploit but something tiny always prevents it.
Holy shit! I got mine for around £200, I'm gonna be upgrading to an OLED or Lite model in the future.I know they are no where $600, my modded OLED was $650 lol

I'll sure do perhaps.Do the OLED if you can find a HWFLY OLED.
Like a flashcard-based exploit? NTRBoot on 3DS is magical.Your best hope is that a cheaper and easier hard mod comes out.
flash cards will never be a thing on the switch. your only option is to either learn soldering skills and install a modchip your self, or buy the modchip and contact modsvilleUSA on here, youtube, or his personal website, he does installs.Like a flashcard-based exploit? NTRBoot on 3DS is magical.
All a flashcard exploit would do is enable piracy of retail games, no homebrew software. The reason NTRBoot exists on 3DS is because Nintendo used it as a recovery mode a lot like how the Switch has RCM mode. It was intended for people at the factory to do repairs and diagnostics but hackers found it and found a way to break it. The Switch's bootrom doesn't interface with the game card slot at all so there's no way to mess with that by messing with the GC. Maybe if you hack the game card slot itself to get code execution you could use that as a primary exploit to trigger a kernel exploit, but the main issue with Switch hacking is there are no known kernel exploits (according to SciresM there are zero, and he has reverse engineered the entire kernel to make Mesosphere).Like a flashcard-based exploit?

ModzvilleUSA is very talented with modding, I find watching his videos very satisfying.flash cards will never be a thing on the switch. your only option is to either learn soldering skills and install a modchip your self, or buy the modchip and contact modsvilleUSA on here, youtube, or his personal website, he does installs.

All of the hardware exploits that I know of involve some form of glitching, it's just that they glitch different parts of the bootrom / bootloader. I know of 2 in addition to what is publicly available (HWFly BCT glitching). If you want to know more about hardware glitching check out this great blog post by YifanLu from the Vita scene: https://yifan.lu/2019/08/16/glitching-a-20k-piece-of-history/
There are possibly non-glitching based hardware exploits but if there are any I haven't heard of them and I'm in quite a few private group chats with developers from various console scenes.
Sadly his install services are not an option. Assuming I manage to get myself a chip, shipping a Switch + the chip to the USA would take months and the customs fees would triple the price.flash cards will never be a thing on the switch. your only option is to either learn soldering skills and install a modchip your self, or buy the modchip and contact modsvilleUSA on here, youtube, or his personal website, he does installs.
That is if you're lucky enough to come across one that is decent.You could get a beat-up unpatched switch (bad battery, bad screen etc) and transplant the motherboard into your good switch.

I actually had the same question about using a dock mod to hack the Switch. On it's surface it sounds like a stupid question because the dock doesn't do anything to the Switch other than supply power and process the outgoing video signal, but the whole idea of hardware glitching is that you mess with the power supply to induce software bugs. The TL;DR though is that it's not possible because of several reasons, especially not on Mariko consoles as they have random delays in the bootrom that the dock can't detect (but a mod chip can since it can read eMMC traffic).Any possibilities of a non-soldering HW-based inexpensive exploit?
It would be even more cool if it was something like a modification to the dock or something that plugs in to the USB port, but that's sadly unlikely.
On the Wii U, it's now possible to unbrick a bricked device with using a relatively inexpensive USB plug-in device.
Nah the switch uses ASLR, so noSo does that mean... USERLAND EXPLOIT TIME?
