Safe proper way to downgrade to 6.2 (NO NAND BACKUP NEEDED)
Hello. After I saw this many of bad turtorials, I decided to help you on doing a downgrade without a nand backup.
Let's begin. Make sure you have enabled autorcm on hekate https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate/releases and have a Nand backup. I am not responsible for bricks.
First step make a folder on your sd named "FW"
Second step I don't know if it's against the rules to give you fw files from here, better safe than sorry! Anyway, google "Switch firmware files" and you should find a link
Third step download 6.2 and unzip it on the fw folder we made
Fourth step if you don't use atmosphere we will need to use it to get to choidujournx, put the files on your sd card https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases
You can use external payload with SX pro and gear by putting the atmosphere payload on the root of sd and injecting it through the menu of sx. press vol+ while booting sx and click options then external payload, then atmosphere's payload. Don't do this now since we haven't put choidujournx on the sd yet.
Fifth step make sure you have choidujournx on your switch folder https://switchtools.sshnuke.net/
Sixth step boot on atmosphere (for sx pro and gear users launch now your external payload) and open choidujournx on the hbmenu
Seventh step choose the fw folder and click select all. It will start reading the files
Eighth step it will ask you if you want exfat 6.20 or 6.20. choose exfat
Ninth Click system initialize (WARNING All games saves and stuff will be gone once we do this) If we don't do this, brick chances hit the roof!
Tenth start installation
Eleventh click reboot once it's done.
twelfth click reboot now
Thirteenth, inject your old payload and start the setup.
Good luck!
It means a lot to me if you like my post!
Ask me any questions and if I can, I'll answer!
