So I have to ? Because it's been a while since I made a backup of my system and I don't remember if I made one before and after I updated to 8.10 before I used Kefir.The guide assumes that the latest firmware can be hacked via CFW which is not the case at the current time but is usually the case. Anyway, you can ignore that step altogether or substitute it with a game cartridge.
Restore a NAND backup. I consider Kefir to be malware.
Because Kefir is a type of malware, yes.So I have to ? Because it's been a while since I made a backup of my system and I don't remember if I made one before and after I updated to 8.10 before I used Kefir.
What format is your SD card? And what version of CFW are you using?Hi guys!
I really need help. I tried to restore my "clean" NAND, but the system cannot boot afterwards. It shows Nintendo logo, then
" An error has occured, error code: 2002-4686 "
and on the bottom (x1) my serial number x(2) 6.2.0
I suppose my clean nand had older system version than my CFW currently had.
How can i upgrade my switch OFW, without breaking clean backup?
Hekate does not support firmware 9.1 yet.I did a system update yesterday on my sysMMC to 9.1.0. All was fine. Booted back into emuMMC to do some other stuff. Still fine. Now I'm trying to launch stock sysMMC from hekate but it just reboots and takes me back to Hekate every time. What happened and how can I fix this? emuMMC still works.
Dang that stinks. I hate how I couldn't wait to play Bloodstained and used it. I don't think I did a backup before I used it sadly. Fudge. I'm going to double check but doesn't that mean that the save files for the account Kefir made will be deleted? At least it was only 2 games but damn don't want to redo everything in Pokémon again. But I guess as long as I can it se pkhex and get those Pokémon back I guess it's not a total loss.Because Kefir is a type of malware, yes.

Hekate does not support firmware 9.1 yet.
Seems to work fine. Files need to be on root.Have a new HDD formatted to exfat. Is it ok to use for SX OS if there’s other files on it, pics music, docs, etc? Will XCI and nsps need to be on the root?
The console does not support exFAT out of the box. Its a separate update that has to be either downloaded online or installed via homebrew. Not to mention that exFAT is notoriously unstable on the Switch and there is no reason to be using exFAT. Format the SD card to FAT32.I don't understand. I put my backup on 64 exFAT sd card and restored the system on switch. It doesn't boot. My backup was a year old -version 6.2 but . I ran CFW 7.x.x on switch but i'm not sure...
I suppose this post was made before CFW was updated to support firmware 9.1 but you can now update to the latest firmware without burning fuses. Also ChoiDujourNX automatically enables AutoRCM when it installs a firmware. More precisely, since the firmware installation will overwrite whatever is in BOOT0 AutoRCM or not, it only matters if you enable AutoRCM during the installation or not.Hey, noob questions.
I have been avoiding burning fuses by performing Sysnand updates via ChoiDujourNX (so I can downgrade my Switch in the future) because I heard that Untethered coldboot could be possible for Switch <3.0.1, but is it ever going to happen?
Also, the update nag shows up every time I launch a game even though I am on the latest firmware. This is super annoying and I'm afraid I'll eventually press "Yes" by accident when the prompt shows up. Does this happen because I update Sysnand via ChoiDujourNX?
Should I just stop caring about avoiding burning fuses and update Sysnand without using ChoiDujourNX?
Also, If I update Sysnand from 9.0.1 to 9.1.0 without ChouDujourNX, will it disable Auto-RCM? Do I need to prepare a jig?
You will not be able to use Hekate to launch anything on firmware 9.1. But everything else should work with Hekate.@Draxzelex If I update my sysNand to 9.1 to go online, I won't be able to go on my emuNand because Hekate isn't updated. But with atmosphere updated to work with 9.1.0 it should only be a matter of time.
My question is, I will still be able to use hekate feature to autoRCM so I don't burn fuse after teh update and be able to go online but have to wait for hekate to enter my 8.10 emunand. Right?
NoWill there be a problem if we keep emunand at 9.0.1 and update only sysnand to 9.1.0?
Okay but what should i even put on that SD card?The console does not support exFAT out of the box. Its a separate update that has to be either downloaded online or installed via homebrew. Not to mention that exFAT is notoriously unstable on the Switch and there is no reason to be using exFAT. Format the SD card to FAT32.
