Hacking Hello my switch is on 4.1.0

[natron]

So my question is what's the best way to upgrade to cfw or steps heard about burning fuses so dont want to do that I'm getting my jig in the mail today also does atmosphere dump games in ns format since I'm not paying for sx OS thanks community

Would be easier to buy SXOS so you can use emunand that way you can upgrade without having to worry about burning fuses and or getting bricked

 

[Dust2dust]

He already said he won't buy SX OS, and at this point, I don't blame him (and I'm a SX OS user myself). Start with this guide, OP. >> https://guide.sdsetup.com/
Also try here for a CFW. >> https://github.com/AtlasNX/Kosmos/releases

Thanks for the responses y'all ok one last question since I'm on 4.1 should i go to 6.2 or 7.0 for best cfw and what are sigpatches

lower is always better but newer games will require newer firmwares.

lower is always better but newer games will require newer firmwares.

So 6.2 has advantages over 7.0?

First, make a NAND backup of your FW 4.1.0 for 2 reasons:
- In case anything bad happens
- There is a private kernel flaw on 4.1.0: if it is publicaly released and when CFW will support EmuNAND, it will allow to start CFW with any level from a 4.1.0 OFW

While we wait for second point release, most people update to 6.2/7.0.1 using ChoidujourNX (with AutoRCM feature to avoid eFuse burn). If you use Atmosphere 0.8.4, you can go directly up to FW 7.0.1 (the only drawback is that some NSP installers don't work).

7.0 is supported by Atmosphere (and KOSMOS) so why not using it? If you want to preserve fuses, then you use AutoRCM. Preserving fuses is done in the hope that a coldboot exploit will be released in the near or far future for lower firmwares. It might happen, and it might not. Lots of people don't care about fuses burning, and they're not any worse than those that preserve them. So, your choice.
