I also installed the xci with zerotwoxci. I tried to convert it to nsp but I must have failed since it wouldn't start anymore.

It may work with an older version of firmware? I cannot try it right now. I'm also not sure what is the minimum firmware version for Smash 1.2.1.
I got it working. I ended up installing the .nsp and it worked perfectly. I think maybe using zerotwoxci is the issue, as I also feel like converting it to .nsp another way or just running it through homebrew as .xci would work too. Haven't had issues with other games yet with zerotwoxci, but it's good to keep in mind. Hope this solves it for you too.

Do I need my Switch's tickets to extract NSP files?
You only need what is listed in this thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-switch-sd-to-nsp-dumper.514816/
im planning on restoring my clean nand and updating my firmware to 6.2 and play online a bit.

should i copy to computer and then delete everything in my sd card and put the backup folder? if i want to use CFW again (i use SX OS), can i just put back everything that was in the SD card before? (bootloader, boot.dat, hbmenu, license.dat)?

Thanks!
Files aren't tied to the SD card. They can be freely moved on and off of the SD card.

Is there any more correct way to exit homebrew apps other than pressing Home button? I've heard incorrect termination can lead to SD card filesystem failure and now I am curious.

That wasn't my comment lol i dont have an extra fat32 and yes i will stop using HB i cant afford to continue using it if thats what's at risk as an SXos user i have everything running off my exfat card over 200GB of stuff. The only HB i was using was snes emu anyway so no big deal i guess. rip HB
Yeah that wasn't your question. lol

In your case I would get a 4-16 GB card. At some point you'll want /have to use homebrew again, like that same SNES emulator or ChoiDujourNX.

Hi
I've upgraded from 4.0.1 (made a backup first) with ChuDoujourNX to 6.2(exfat)
Is it normal that my prod.keys(4.0.1) looks different than my prod.keys(6.2)?
rNX to 6.2

Hi there. I just got a Switch with a hard copy of Smash.
Unfortunately I didn't read here first.

I had to update to 5.1 (via cartridge) to play the game but I haven't connected to the internet yet. Online play would be nice but I'd rather wait until a safe method arrives.

Should I stay on 5.1 and keep it offline if I want to hack it?

Also, did I possibly burn any fuses with that update?
Serial No. is XAJ400654xxxxx

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

not possible im on emunand so ill have to have at least a 32+GB fat32 sd card just to run HB apps from but this SD corruption is a good thing to know now because it just hit me that the only emu backup i have is on my sd card so if i lose this ill have to make another dump format tofat32 update format back to exfat ...and not to mention losing all my savs yep making copies of all my files NOW! and deleting everything homebrew related lol i guess i could just use the retroarch nsp is this a safer option ?

Yes you burnt fuses updating to 5.1.
And all of this doesn't really matter because according to your serial number you Switch is patched. My recommendation would be to stay on 5.1 (your lowest possible firmware) and enjoy online. And just hope that an exploit is found for the currently patched model.

Yes because there are more masterkeys on firmware 6.2 than on firmware 4.0.1

This should be easy:

Does install order matter when installing base games, DLCs, updates with Tinfoil?
nope

delete reinx.bin from the root of your SD card and update the files/payload you are using with the latest version in the guide. As for powering off you already have that sorted

Best way to update from RajNX to atmosphere? Would it work fine if I just replace the atmosphere folder?

Does atmosphere prevent GC update? Should I choose an option or it works by default?

Thank you in advance!
