Hacking jamais vu - a 1.0.0 TrustZone code execution exploit for the Nintendo Switch

[FliP0x]

The simple possibility to play games that you have buyed from cartridge. I'm on 2.3 so i can't actually play any of the newer games.
With the homebrew of course.
You have in mind only piracy,haven't you?

One of the things I have in mind.

I may be spoiled, but I remember CFWs to be all-in-one solutions with endless possibilities and no limitations.

To be blunt, if a CFW won't allow me to run backups and just enables homebrew for me, then I might as well stay on 3.x OFW.

But if yu remain on 3.0 you can't play games. This year a lot of good games have to be released, pokèmon for example. Pokèmon for switch is a day one buy for me.

A lot will happen until the release and probably better solutions than a CFW that won't run backups.

You said it.

You're such a savage. Please don't hurt me.

 

[RedHunter]

Ahah a cfw that won't allow playing backups it's a joke, as if someone is going to renounce all the new games only to have homebrew.

^^, Sorry if it seemed direct, but it's usually the way I react to : "XXX, but YYY", you know, like : "I'm not racist, but..."

If you know that the ReSwitched team condemns piracy and won't provide a solution allowing it, even if you and I know it will happen someday (not by them of course), why bring it out?

Out of the moral reason (I believe the concept of moral is up to each one), it's also a legal matter for them, it's just adding noise to the thread in the end... :/

If you reaaaaaaaally want to use "backups", just wait, or go to a warez forum. The barrier between hack and piracy is small, but here it's all about hacking.

Cool can yu release emulators an exploit now thanks

We were all waiting for you to release all of this. All hope is lost without your developer skills.

go to a warez forum.

I'm right where I need to be.

You understand that this is ultimately meant to be used in conjunction with Emunand right? Which would make updating to higher firmware possible regardless of efuses. Which would make newer games playable without backups. So your argument is moot. There are benefits to patched os's that aren't limited to homebrew.

If you find a thread in gbatemp that's not locked down speaking clearly and openly about piracy good for you man

This one is a great example. Homebrew is legal, but what this homebrew does clearly isn't. Yet it is released on gbatemp and also has a direct download attached.

It's borderline, since you don't use tickets from that site you're OK to publish it, in the same way of WiiU USB Helper, etc.

that's where is the slim line between piracy and hacking.

Take it as a knife: you can cut food, or kill someone with it, the use you do of your tool is your concern.

In the end you clearly stated you want backups, cool, maybe I want them too, but asking a team, that's breaking the layers of the Nintendo OS protections, giving hints and tools for free (think TX or failoverflow), sharing in this forums theirs discoveries, and all that in a wonderful time, for piracy... is kinda insulting from my point of view... :/

The day will come where backup loading will be possible, maybe they won't speak it clearly on GBATemp, maybe like freeshop of Wii USB Helper since the illegal part is taken out they will.

What's clear it won't be from Reswitched team, yes they give the pandora box, but they won't open it.

PS : I won't debate more about this as it's not related directly to the thread.

You may think I'm hypocrite, you may think I'm wrong (I can be of course!), you may think we could call a cat a cat, but those are the rules.
People are dedicating time for you to have "backups" in the end, maybe I'll download them too one day, but since the Switch is not full of showelware I don't see the urgence of doing it. Since I can pay for the games I'll really play I'll do.

For the moment I keep on learning of the switch device and try, even if my dev skills are small, to participate in the future of what could be a great piece of technology and not an haxxor gaming gear.

PS2: Also understand that if they can do what they do, it's because legally Nintendo can't do anything for the moment, if they're related to piracy, forget about Reswitched... as simple as that

First off, big thanks to the guys that have done all this awesome work! As a complete noob when it comes to hacking etc i can only bow down to your superhuman genius! Anyway, i was wondering, will you have to install pegaswitch first before using any future cfw?

 

[Deleted User]

Do you think with the CFW we could be able to play every games even if they need superiror version? (Not piracy but play every game i buy, like SMO without updating).
I think yes if we can update the emunand.

That's the first thing i would like to have with CFW. (Because on PSVita that sucks)

Yeah, I think this is the main feat about having CFW with TZ.
To be able to play higher firmwares games while still retaining an exploitable FW like =<3.0.0

With the highest level of privileges through TrustZone, we have what's called Emunand - a copy of your NAND on your SD card. All writes and reads to and from the NAND on your system is redirected to this copy. Therefore, you are able to update your emunand to the latest version, be able to play the newest games, while also retaining your hacking abilities. The only catch is that you will have to manually trigger the exploit to run Emunand everytime until we have a public coldboot exploit.

It's already been stated by SciresM that HIS CFW solution won't be like devolution or to the similar cfws found on the 3ds that were glorified walled gardens or at least that's what he said a few pages ago. Who knows if his opinion might change afterwards. Keep in mind that others may make forks from the source code and make their own CFW as well. For now, applaud the man for even taking interest in all that he's doing when others have basically said "I can do this and that with my toy but you can't so cheers!"

You don't understand the reason for the rules that are there. Gbatemp takes no moral stance. You can't post links to copyright material because that can get picked up by site scraping, and the site could lose advertisers or get shut down. As long as there's no direct links you can talk about piracy all you want.
