Hacking Would it be possible to unban the Switch?

[xbmcuser]

Would it be possible to unban by borrowing (or stealing) certs, HW Mac adress, ninID, consoleID an then spoofing them by some system module.

I know this was done on PS3 and people used to share PIDs (playstation IDs) and even shell them on ebay
.
Yes this would be sketchy and wrong on so many levels, but the question is can it be donw?

If it can be done, then there's no public way of doing it as far as I know.

It's 100% possible. But at least the method I know of is very hacky, and will probably never be easily publicly doable.

Have you tried it ? Does it work well ?

Haven't tried it myself, but it should be possible.
It's literally just, hardcode most/all console unique keys and fuse info from another console & restore a nand backup from another system.
(You can probably see why I said it's very hacky now, hehe)

I'm pretty sure that's just a way of bricking your console.

All that would happen is as soon as both units connected to the internet both units would be banned.

Even if you actually could spoof all the variables of one Switch to look like another with no trace, you could never circumvent two identical units connecting at the same time.

You could buy an unbanned broken switch to extract it's nand info though

It won't if done correctly.
(It has been done before)
But yeah, as I said, it's very hacky and not a good idea.

The closest thing we have is using a proxy to spoof the cert with a clean cert because actually restoring the nand with another switch's backup will brick the console. It is a proof of concept though because if you need another switch, your better off just using the other switch. Plus, as of now, it's 100% detectable so in a couple of weeks you will end up with 2 banned switches. Here is the video if your interested (only the first 30 seconds is in Spanish, then he switches to English)

OP didnt even bother to read the forums. I wish people would search before asking questions that are already answered a million times.
