Hacking Switch Informations by serial number - READ THE FIRST POST before asking questions

[Pleng]

Means its a 50/50 that it can or cannot be hacked

Thanks. I guess I'll just have to buy a jig and cross my fingers when the time comes.

i dont know how many time i did read the first post already, but i am still a bit confused

XAJ4004700X and above not safe to buy, possibly patched.

There is one user with the same serial posted in January 2019 that his was not patched. So no one knows for sure.

I have an Xaw1 Switch with a serial most similar to the blue one in that section, but instead of 0075, it's 0057. It was used when I purchased it, so I don't have a whole lot of other info on it, is there a definitive way to know if it's patched?

 

[M7L7NK7]

Test it

 

[Birdstar]

Test it

Doesn't exactly help me trying to be certain before trying to do something that could damage it -_-

Unless you're carelessly shoving paperclips into your switch you aren't going to damage it

I got it into RCM mode successfully for a while, but TegraRCM wouldn't work (freezing when attempting to inject a payload). Now my computer doesn't recognize the device at all, even though it seems to be working fine. What do I do now?

so i guess i have to give it a try and share my experience with you :-D

if i try and see that the device is patched, i would like to send it back to the seller.
will he be able to see if i tried to modify the device and refuse the return of the switch?!

how do i start jailbreaking the switch? are there any links you can suggest in order to try?


thank you and regards

Serials beginning with XAJ1, according to the first post:

• XAJ1002000X and below are safe to buy
• XAJ1002100X and above not safe to buy, possibly patched
• XAJ1003000X and above definitely patched

XAJ1004 is definitely patched.

Sending it back depends of your sellers return policy and how your seller inspects returns.

Try this guide to see if the NSW is patched or unpatched. By doing this test it won't modify your system.https://gbatemp.net/threads/a-defin...atched-or-not-purchases-after-07-2018.512018/

If its unpacthed you can then check this thread that will answer any questions you may have https://gbatemp.net/threads/switch-noob-paradise-ask-questions-here.488277/
