Hacking Ban fow using SX-OS

[DJPlace]

wow i miss the old days of the wii/ds era ... sadly if i want a switch i'm going have to pay the big bucks and not hack it...

 

[Cha0tic]

I'd check if I got banned but honestly to lazy to shut my switch off and reboot with the computer lul and boot into stock os and check.

One day my friends one day

Two gbatemp members are getting along?....

NOT ON MY WATCH YOU FUCKING DON'T!

QUICK, TELL EACH OTHER HOW INCOMPETENT YOU ARE AND THEN START BLOCKING EACH OTHER.

We need more drama folks!

GBAT... We know drama.

(Yes, I just ripped off the TNT television networks slogan. I'll now prepare to be DMCA'd by TNT, thus creating MOAR DRAMA!)

Also, <inserts picture of Drama from Rob Dyrdeks Fantasy Factory> IS THAT ENOUGH DRAMA?

also for @YpordeDx my console is not banned...

on the account settings via browser and my console is not banned. so maybe on banned consoles its not possible...

account settings - login history

Abmelden means log off - so log console off. and if i do this the swith wants that i log in again...

That logs you out from the console but the account will remain linked. You can't link it to another Switch unless you call (or enter the eShop from the Switch itself)

Hi, i have a question, i got banned for using SX-OS i guess... i didnt playend on line, but still i got banned yesterday... i already bougth a new nintendo switch i was wondering if the ban only affect the console or the account as well

Did you update your backups online? Want to know cause I’m trying to play Octopath but I don’t wanna get banned even though I didn’t go online.

This is what bugs me. Some people get banned for updating games, some don't. Some update while on SX OS, some on official firmware..
It all seems like a hell of a lot like random.

I have just recently hooked up my SX Pro, done the dongle/jig-thing and received my license (though, I should probably not have activated it on the Switch and instead uploaded the license request on the website). Ruling out this factor, who knows what traffic Nintendo tracks while being online.

I unlinked my NNID, removed my internet connection, unchecked "send error logs" (or whatever). I'm offline and will play the backups on a local dummy account. I'm currently transferring 101GB of trimmed goodies to my SDCARD, minutes away from trying out the concept.

I just hope things becomes clear over time. Though, I don't really intend on paying for Nintendos upcoming online-services, but being able to enter eShop and buy something once in a while would be neat.

Hopefully Nintendo didn't learn from their past mistakes with 3DS and private headers, my Sky3DS+ with private header has worked like a charm.
I've got two retail games on cartridge for Switch, Mario Odyssey and Zelda. Extracting the header is already possible from what I understand, but there's not a lot of reports regarding how safe the method is.

Oh, I can assure you that the bans are so random, its like the days of the 3DS all over again. If you want to be extra safe, it might be worth not using AutoRCM, not using trimmed .XCI, not touching any homebrew whatsoever, block the GDPR thing, don't clear error logs on a 5.X firmware. And if you're wondering whether or not its safe to inject certificates similar to the 3DS era, it is most certainly not.

Yeah the AutoRCM feature is something I won't be using, it's just a lazy and somewhat unnecessary feature (I'll be doing Sleep Mode). Installing this onto the internals of the Switch would almost certainly leave traces..
I thought about not trimming my XCI's, I know what you mean (messing with a game and removing padding ends up with a rip that don't match the values of anything near official). But then again, I won't be updating my games (even though I would like to) and I will probably format the Switch in the future and re-do the steps if/when things comes to clarity. My Switch is on complete lockdown for the time being.

I'm curious though, what do you mean by "block the GDPR thing"? Haven't seen anything like that.

Ok, well, I guess the private header-thing is a no-no then.

Its a short but interesting read: https://gbatemp.net/threads/gdpr-fo...-stop-sharing-usage-data-no-telemetry.509556/

Also forgot to post this in addition to why injecting certificates won't work: https://www.reddit.com/r/SwitchHacks/comments/8rxg26/psa_strong_antipiracy_measures_implemented_by/
If you're feeling lazy, just start from the section titled Gamecards and work your way down. That has the necessary info to prove why it is not safe.

I personally plan in keeping unit in airplane mode for time being, even not checking to see if banned. I figure eventually we will know more such as if we should delete log's, or if some programs get update to help not get banned.

Just being safe honestly as long as I can update firmware and software later on even if banned I'm fine on my homebrew unit.

Dick vitale knows what’s up, baby! It’s gonna be awesome!

 

[PatrickD85]

Depends on the type of ban really.
But account bans are more rare for now.

Signed into my NNID via website and unchecked the GDPR-related stuff, thanks for the tip.

Read the cartridge related security measures - they sure learned their lesson from 3DS.
