Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

Did you delete game saves and game data in the data management area. Also if that no help, you can try going into Checkpoint or JKSV, and deleting the game saves from there. Sometimes the saves are in a hidden partition and don't show thru normal Nintendy settings.

that fixed it, tysm i have been trying to fix this for so long and it finally works. I will restore my save data backup from JKSV now.

Bought a cheap unpatched switch to use a s a second console.

It has been played on the symmc with non official games. I know this will likely result in a ban.

It also needs updated so am wonder what ways I can reduced the lieklyhood of the console being banned.

If its not banned yet, you might be able to clean it up a bit to increase the chance of being able to use the sysnand online.
Best uninstall all games that don't work with default atmosphere (so without fs patches).
Then try to cleanup the tickets on the system via a tool like dbi.
Not sure if there are game logs that also need to be cleaned up, but unless its non existing applications (like hombrew installed to the main menu), the play history alone should not be a problem.

Also best setup an emunand, if you want to install backups any other xci/nsp and block the emummc form going online.
If you only intend to use homebrew you might instead be able to get away with just using SysCFW after the cleanup.

I have a clean Firmware v2.0 backup of my switch and just recently made a mistake when I upgraded the emunand to Firmware 11.x and burnt some fuses( I upgraded sysnand, not emunand. whoops). Obviously I cant keep sys on 2.0 anymore because it doesn't boot without help due to the fuses being burnt. So, I'd like to unmod the switch, Get it online and updated by Nintendo officially.


What's the best way to unmod the switch? Restore the clean 2.0 backup, use Atmosphère + daybreak to bring it up to 11.0.0, connect to the internet to check for an update with Nintendo, and finally hope we get to 17 without a ban?


Edit: I used hekate to restore 2.0.0 and Atmosphère to boot into 2.0.0 (fuses up to 12.0.0 burnt). used daybreak to update system to 12.0.0, factory reset and fat32 (without exfat). update was successful. I reboot without SD Card or anything, and setup without wifi. Then went into the system settings and initialized/factory reset the switch again. Once done, I setup a second time, setup wifi and updated to 17.0.1.

I downloaded a bunch of free software from the store and it seems to be working without any issues. no ban (yet) either.

Hi everyone. I've not updated my Switch since the release of Atmosphere 1.3.1. I'm currently at the official FW 14.1.0. Since there's a long time since the last update, I've forgotten how to properly update it and am not sure what are the recommended methods.

I would like to know how do I update the system nowadays:

1- Is Atmosphere still the go-to option? I've seen it seems to have stopped being updated since October 2023.

2- Should I first update the microSD card with the latest (1.6.2) version of Atmosphere, and just then update the FW?

3- Is there an up-to-date guide on how I should proceed?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks. And should I update to the latest FW, or is it recommended to stay on an specific version right now?

You can update to 17.0.1 safely with Atmosphere.

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it.

Sorry for the question, if cfw and ofw are two separate things then why if you update ofw, you may get an error when booting into cfw?

Sysnand CFW and OFW share the same NAND.

Hey all. I have had this problem for about 8 months already. Two games (Resident Evil Revelations 1 and 2) started giving problems when opening in CFW. I have the original cartridge for RER 1 and it doesn't work when I launch it on my switch or my son's, the same with any NSP of revelations 2 (even the ticketless ones). We have a 3rd switch with no CFW and there, the cartridge works normally and all. I already reinstalled the ticket with Tinfoil selecting "install ticket only" but to no avail. I don't have a clue about what to do. If somebody could help me with this issue, I would appreciate it very much, please. Thank you!!!

Did you downgrade system firmware? Cartridge slot has it own firmware.
