ARE YOU KIDDING ME? ARE WE GOING TO START A FLAMEWAR OVER EDITING BOOTROM? ITS IN THE FUCKING NAME. ROM MEANS READ ONLY MEMORY.It always seriously disappoints me when people say this.

well, from what it has been said in this thread (and i assume you havent read the OP with that answer) it will be possible, but with the exploit we would need to do it, downgrade would be obsoletedowngrading will not be a thing with the eFuses in place. although doubtful, a partial downgrade would be the closest thing to a downgrade that would be possible on the Switch assuming the system will boot and not blow the tamper eFuse in that state.
It doesn't work that way. The console is hardcoded to read the bootrom from a specific location. You cannot change the bootrom. It is impossible. The 3DS's Read-Only IO registers, which are what turn on when the power button is pressed, are programmed to lead to the Read-Only bootrom. You cannot change the boot process. If you could change it, the 3DS would have been completely hacked in every possible way within a few months of release.

Exactly this. We would need to be handed control directly by the bootrom to bypass the efuse verification and use an outdated firmware. And a bootrom hack would make downgrading useless.well, from what it has been said in this thread (and i assume you havent read the OP with that answer) it will be possible, but with the exploit we would need to do it, downgrade would be obsolete
Nintendo would likely put the eFuse verification into the bootrom, for maximum protection.Exactly this. We would need to be handed control directly by the bootrom to bypass the efuse verification and use an outdated firmware. And a bootrom hack would make downgrading useless.
you made fun of somebody who doesn't natively speak english for a title that while not incorrect, sounds odd. this is why i don't like america. and i'm from there. p.s. you might be surprised to find out that the u.s. did not "win" wwii. study abroad when you get to college.
Given the verification value changes with each update I'm pretty sure it needs to be in an area that can be updated. Although I suppose there would be the possibility the efuse checks are done via a specific algorithm in the bootrom. Either way according to the article I linked on Wololo.net the check causes a panic in the early boot chain not the bootrom. In short I'm pretty certain you're wrong.Nintendo would likely put the eFuse verification into the bootrom, for maximum protection.
It seems that each firmware version includes an encrypted hash which is checked by the firmware to determine the number of fuses. Unless you have the correct encryption key you don't have a chance.Given the verification value changes with each update I'm pretty sure it needs to be in an area that can be updated.

The 'it is possible and don't tell me it's not even if you know more than me about this' kiddos:
it may have been a noob question, as i said in the OP, it is oneCan't people just keep their pants on and wait before losing their shit?
it may have been a noob question, as i said in the OP, it is one
but i really wanted an answer, and i got it thanks to people who are glad to help instead of just saying "tsk... another noob"
lolOh....well I think I hear my phone's ringtone, gotta go.
