Hacking Question [Poll] What CFW are you currently using

[0000ff]

They are all great cfws and I find that I use them all

Where's the all of the above option?

The last one I used and I guess current is sx os but tbh it just depends on my mood.

Hs no clues why so many people use SX OS....maybe because they bought the pro license before reiNX and keep using to convince himself that have wasted no money?

xci loader

xci loader

What I don't understand is why people preffer that over .NSP...

afraid of bans. Not that its totally secure, but there are no bans for xci at the moment

There are plenty of bans for people who have used .XCI online and off

Ok, intresting..

bans for xci online, i can belive. Offline i dont beñive those reports. Many of them assumed they at least once tried out with nsp or gone online with xci. But u know the drill. To much wrong information on reports, we never know for sure. This is just my opinion from watching dozens of reports on your and other threads

Just know that doubt is a two-way street. Once you believe one side is lying that does not mean the other side is telling the truth. I'm not saying to believe people who have been banned offline but the same can be said for people not banned.

I'm using hekate + SigPatch + LayeredFs this should be considered as a cfw since it's nearly the same ReyNx

i will then explain why i came to this conclusion. almost everyone that touched nsp, reports bans. Some ppl with xci report bans. I use xci offline and hadnt got a ban (i belive in myself). And if you analise yout thread, there are not many ppl reporting bans with xci offline

The defining factor isn't NSP or XCI, it's STAYING OFFLINE

But there are plenty of people who used .NSP files without a ban. That seems like an egregious conclusion you came up with since there's no data to back that up. To be more accurate, there are very few .NSP only bans.

Same here, works flawless

same. this seems to be a very popular set up that was overlooked. some say its not custom firmware. i, for one, find it to be very different from the official firmware. notably, i can install and play "backups".

Currently using SX OS (just for convenience) but I'm looking forward to install Atmosphere when ready

Without being able to see the identities of the voters, one should apply a healthy level of skepticism to the poll results.

There's some circumstantial evidence that the people behind SX OS are creating at least some accounts on GBATemp in order to hype their product and inundate the forums with posts about how it's significantly superior to any free alternative.

In addition, the OP created his account just to post this poll, and the first post reads like an advertisement. I wouldn't be surprised if the thread was an organized effort to present the SX OS as the most popular option. When I noticed that a plurality of voters voted for SX OS but that a majority of people voted for something other than SX OS, I intentionally pointed out this fact in an effort to see if there would be a sudden jump to a narrow majority for SX OS, and there was.

Now that makes ya think doesn't it? But the question is, why would they do it? It's pretty clear that SXOS is already super popular, why would they need to do something like that?

Hypothetically, sales for SX OS are likely already in decline with the existence of free alternatives like RajNX and ReiNX. The exact same thing happened to Gateway once rxTools with signature patches was released. It could also be preemptive. Lastly, good marketing is always good, no matter how popular the product is, and many of these accounts likely already existed to hype the product before the poll.

Their best bet is to actually produce features that are worthwhile, instead of copying and re-implementing shit Hekate has been able to load for many months already. If they're actually capable and proper programmers, we'd probably have already seen this happen.

Right now they have ONE thing going for them and that's the jig seeing as R4 has a much cheaper and, by the looks of it, just as good dongle for sale
