Hacking WIP Upcoming update for the SwitchBru DNS

[vgmoose]

This is a HUGE ISSUE. As of right now I have a 4.1.0 Switch that will be unable to use Homebrew even if it was released today for 4.1.0 CRAZY.

I wouldn't quite go that far, there's still the hardmod method which will likely be able to undo any of this in the future on current hardware.

Not really, this can be patched with CFW or a smaller fusee payload, but again we don't know everything yet, will update once we have more.

If I initialized the system in maintanince mode deleting all data including save data could that fix the issue?

U can try, if you want to in the name of science.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

So here is the verdict for now:

NeedsUpdateVulnerability is a function that needs to be set to the value 0.

It seems that in systems with the issue it is set to 1.

When any of the web applets open they will check that value, if it is set to 1 a update will be needed.

We do not yet know how this value was changed, but this will be looked into tomorrow (EU timezone)

Is it patcheble?

Yes, but right now Fusee does not have sdMMC support, so the only way now is to patch it through running Linux on the Switch. Obviously that is not a easy solution, so a patch will come, but more groundwork needs to be done. Sorry for the inconvenience!

If I get that message to update and I can not sign in to my eshop account would that not mean that if I signed in on another switch with my account I couldnt

Hi, I just bought a brand new switch Serial : XAJ700319 with FW 4.0.1 and I can't even add my Nintendo acc without being asked for an update
Also same for me when it comes to DNS

Thanks for the info, a fix will come soon, just don't connect to the internet!

I'm now stuck not being able to add Nintendo account after doing a complete initialize.

I took the leap for science. Keep me informed of a fix for this

Since the beta is out. My question is... How do I log out of the switchbru account on the switch?

Working on that now! Although it's not really necessary to log out of it.

Nintendo fights back soon after a day of massive releases...this is gonna be epic. probably.


In my mind, I wanna see sciresm and some nintendo worker punching each other in the face.

in reality, it's gonna be reswitched making a giant robot out of rcm jigs and labo parts fighting a giant wiiu robot another release that'll probably fix everything, or a way to fix stuff by simply jamming more crap down our rails.

Cool, I just look for certain things that may be added or shouldn’t. What we should definitely try is to watch videos... in html5 format?

Just think of watching Ready Player One on a switch while playing Adventure.

Why "gender" ?
lol

 

[Ep8Script]

Why "gender" ?

Lol just because it's based on Nintendo's own account creation. It will also allow developers to access users' gender in the future through the OAuth, though.

I've been using Switch Bru DNS on my Switch Lite in the past but recently it started to kick me out of the browser if left it open for a while without touching it. Is there any way to resolve my issue

 

[vgmoose]

Interesting, how long is a while? I left mine open for about 10 minutes until my auto-sleep kicked in and I'm still online.

Haven't yet tried this test on a switch lite though

This started happening ever since the 10.0.1 update
