Hardware Instinct V6 NX for OLED Question

[CinnamonToast12]

Hey guys,
I'm getting my OLED Mod Chipped next week and I have 2 very important questions that I cant find an answer for anywhere online.

Once the chip is installed by a professional. Should I be concerned about updating the chip firmware later on? And If I do, can it be done through Hekate or should I have to tear open my console and update the chip manually?

Second: I intend to dual boot my console. Having my SYSNAND clean and my emmunand run CFW. Can I update my sysnand normally through Nintendo Update tab ? do I have to worry about it bricking my chip or anything like that ?

You don't need to update the chip firmware if it working fine, update via Nintendo server for Sysnand online play, and daybreak for emunand.

Hypothetically speaking, if I need to, whats the process like, possible through Hekate or I need to hardflash the chip itself ?
Just making sure Im thinking 10 steps ahead and fully understand everything I possibly can before getting mod chipped.

Are you sure updating the sysnand firmware wont messing with the chip's training or anything?

Don't think there is newer firmware than what come with pre flash already. No updating via Nintendo server won't affect chip glitching if you are using sysnand for online play. You should get a V6 black.

I almost bought the white one because everybody bought it but I bought the black because of aesthetics that nobody will ever see.. I'm glad I made that decision.

Im told that version is a newer iteration?

White one had ground problem.

White one had ground problem.

because of inferior quality PCB ? Can you educate me on what else is new on the black chip in comparison to the white one?

Just that people have problem soldering the ground point on the white one, with some people chip not working. The black is just a revision to fix that problem.

Good to know, should be easier on my soldering dude. Is there any way to find out what NAND is on my switch before it gets opened. I'm just hoping a samsung instead of SK HYNIX

Only way to find out is to open it.

Are there still hynix problems. I thought they fixed it on the flex cables with new underscore.
