oh, so if anyone upgraded to 8.0, then you can easily downgrade to 7.0?
Years from now I imagine the Switch will be the next PSP in terms of hacking. The PSP was an absolutely amazing hacked console. Can't even imagine how amazing the Switch will be. I feel hacking the switch is super easy and seeing the progress made since day one to now especially when the Switch is still quite a new console is astounding!
Small note, shorting pin 9 and 10 also works. I couldn't get the paperclip method to work for the life of me, but tinfoil on pin 9 and 10 worked first try.All you gotta do is short the 1st and 10th pin with some conductive material and make sure you dont touch pin 4 (that's power iirc).
You should have seen ChickHEN on the PSP if you didn't. That shit had a success rate of like 1%.Yes, I do miss the days of having to reboot the web browser 50 times, because the screen color was the wrong color, and having to clear all my browser data over and over and over and over again!

Have I missed something?
3DS easier than Switch? Do me a lemon. Did one about 18 months ago.
Finding the right game, downloading certain stuff from the shop... Reading for hours... All these walking-on-eggshell steps...
If things have changed a lot then please ignore me.
But a piece of wire, a USB cable and an SD card... Whats hard about that?
Easier if you put it that way but compare an already configured (for hacks) 3DS console to a fully configured Switch... example, every time you shut down your device/s and turn them on again you would feel like your Switch is missing something, while your hacked 3DS will feel just like an regular legit and untouched (non-hacked) retail 3DS console which also can go online without getting banned (if you are smart enough which isnt a big deal in this case).Have you forgotten how even after a few years after the 3ds was released we still need about 6 hours or more just to install a9lh? Not to mention that we need certain games for an entrypoint. But with the switch we just have to copy a few files, trigger rcm, inject the payload and we're done, it's tethered but at least in this early in its lifetime and we already have a bootrom exploit. Yeah, I side with the others, the switch is way easier.

I haven't been keeping up with the scene news for almost a year now. Reading the new stuff kinda confuses me a bit. But is it still sxos vs open sourced stuff much like it was gateway vs open source for the 3ds?
That was when I got to messing with my 3ds and it was kinda confusing at first. but soon after that, the scene kinda evolved to the point where emunand was obsolete and everything was easier with Cia installs.
Will the switch ever get to a point where home brew and backups can be installed with one file by one app and emunand isn't needed? Or is an nsp file already like a Cia file?
If you wanna see "ease" go look into the gba/ds/psp scene. (could even argue ps1/ps2/dreamcast)the 3ds wasnt always that simple either.
For the longest while you had to crash the home menu to start the exploit chain which was a bit on the random site wether it worked or not.
So yes it will reach the 3ds level of ease sooner or latter, just give it time.

Typically the only time I have to restart is when I am copying a file over 4GB (granted, I could just FTP it, but that takes FOREVER).
in its current state no as a person who has modded 3ds systems since rxtoolsSwitch is easier by far.
Arm9loaderhax was achieved 5 years after the 3ds was released, boot9strap was achieved much further. The switch is only 2 years old and we already have a bootrom exploit, yes it's not untethered but as I said, the switch is still young. We can't say for sure that it will reach the 3ds' level or not but I'm rooting for the former.3ds cfw is permanent & can be installed on all 3ds & 2ds models old & new.
I've read that AutoRCM drains the battery waaay too much! :/Having Auto RCM enabled and using ChoiDujour can get you to any FW version
