Hacking Edit: It is safe to update to 6.2 using atmosphere

[Kubas_inko]

Let me be the first one who starts the "is it safe to update" threads by saying, that it's not safe right now.
As we all know (or should know) 6.2.0 update just got released and it changes how the keys are generated. What does this mean for the end-user? That no CFW currently works on 6.2.0.

PSA: 6.2.0 changed everything. Package1 crypto now heavily relies on TSEC. https://t.co/RAErzalmUs

6.2.0 confusion explained,

Atmosphere now supports 6.2.0.
Hekate now supports 6.2.0

Thanks for the heads up!
I really don't get why some people just wanna rush to update though.

And Warframe released today T.T

 

[EmulateLife]

So Smash Bros is out I'm guessing. At least for awhile.

 

[GaaraPrime]

It would be very interesting to read what changes they've made.

It changes how keys are generated. Once it is documented, you can find everything on switchbrew.

I KNOW RIGHT T__T. I was waiting for this game to hit the switch, and now this stoopid 6.2.0 update...

Does this imply the game will not work on version 6.0.1 or 6.1?

I do believe it's an online game and in order to connect online you'll most likely need to be on the latest FW.

aaaaaah! we all gonna die!

Possibly

The new Diablo 3 update requires 6.1 so it wouldn't be a surprise if Warframe requires it

like this post to instantly die.

I just hope Smash isn't broken without any updates

Oh! One needs to be careful with game updates now right?
Since Devmenu isn't working on ver 6, once you install an update that requires fw 6.2 you'll be SOL.

Who says Devmenu isn't working on 6+?

 

[Muskusrat]

Thank god I updated to 6.1 a few days ago, which works fine with SX OS. Now we just do the waiting game for all the smart developers to solve the new protection.

Works for me, tho.
After a few nso-edits

ofc not. I won't leak unreleased stuff

This may be a stupid question but I'm interested regardless:

With the new EmuNAND option in SX OS, can't we update our internal storage to be on the latest FW (6.2.0) and keep the EmuNAND firmware on 6.1 with SX OS installed?

Would not risk it. as v6.2.0 burns 'fuses' -- You could try updating via ChoiDujourNX and to protect your fuses, but still nintendo has put in checks so you will be stuck at logo.

Just wait a bit for more info to be released, trust me its all hands on deck now, to find a solution. -- So don't worry, be happy, and hold your horses, and stay on v6.1.0
