Hacking Question Editing settings from emuNAND without emuMMC before NAND backup

[vmp17]

Hello,

I was trying to setup emuMMC on a Switch yesterday and somehow skipped the step for creating the emuMMC, thus I ended up booting Atmosphere on the system NAND before doing the NAND backup. To summarize what I did since I bought the console:

- I factory reset the console and transferred an account to it, which implies going online, then removed all networks from the internet settings
- I did the steps for partitioning the SD card but forgot to create the emuMMC from Hekate
- I booted Atmosphere, thinking it's on emuMMC and edited few settings (console name, and update preferences I think)
- I did a NAND backup
- I booted on sysNAND and realized that the changes I did using Atmosphere were applied (I did not go online at this stage)
- I restored the NAND backup, then setup emuMMC properly

So basically, my NAND backup did include the settings changes I did while booting from Atmosphere and I would like to know if that is safe or not. I am not familiar with how the console logs work and would like to know if what I did before the NAND backup could have had any impact on the logs that could be detected next time I go online.

Thank you!

You mean you did nothing but changing some settings in the stock settings menu?
No homebrews?
Then you should be fine.

Yes, I'm pretty sure all I did was edit the stock settings. Thanks for the quick reply!

should be ok I mean u never know but as long as you didn't install an nsp and since you only did system settings i wouldn't worry too much.

As @pcwizard7 said, you can't be a 100 % sure but people did worse things than you and didn't get banned.
If you installed anything you are screwed though.
