ROM Hack How to restore prodinfo

[FireballMaster101]

I backed up my sysnand prodinfo before installing Incognito, then I deleted, then backed up a new prodinfo while still running Incognito. Can someone help me to turn my Switch back to normal? I'm all new to this.

 

[zestiva]

use Incognito restore new backup, sysnand backup is no directly related to Incognito

 

[FireballMaster101]

Incognito.nro or Incognito RCM?

 

[zestiva]

all right

What version were you running when you backed up? What did you back it up with?

What do you mean what version?

What do you mean what version?

Atmosphere built-in Incognito, Incognito_RCM or Incognito.nro?

And emuMMC or SysNAND?

Incognito RCM on SysNAND.

Incognito RCM on SysNAND.

FFS - I hate that option. I maintain a fork of Incognito_RCM and it’s so tempting to remove running it on SysNAND.

If you’re lucky and you ran Atmosphere before you ran Incognito then you will have a backup in there.

DO NOT delete your prodinfo backups when using Incognito_RCM, copy them somewhere safe! The backups are worthless if you’ve already ran Incognito, however.

Edit:
If you have a prodinfo_emunand.bin you can rename it to prodinfo_sysnand.bin, if it helps..

Are you able to make a backup from Incognito.nro while running Incognito and restore it?

Incognito_RCM overwrites your prodinfo, either on emuMMC, SysNAND or both. If you back it up you will be backing up the overwritten prodinfo - regardless of the method.

Edit: This is why I advise the exosphere.ini method, Incognito_RCM is brute force.

Is there any way I can get online again?

Do you have a backup of your PRODINFO? If you don't, then your console is basically banned. Also do as the site suggests and do NOT double post.

I have an atmosphere automatic backup with XAW-serial numberPRODINFO.bin. Can I restore that?

Rename it to prodinfo_sysnand.bin and restore it with Incognito_RCM.

 

[FireballMaster101]

Rename it to prodinfo_sysnand.bin and restore it with Incognito_RCM.

I tried that but it said "Unknown pkg1 version."

Are you using the one found here?

I also tried it with that version of Incognito RCM and it still didn't work.

Are you launching Incognito_RCM from TegraRcmGUI or another way?

Also, does it show an error message in Incognito (the newer version won’t show a pkg1 error)?

Incognito RCM on SysNAND.

Do you have an emuNAND? If so you can recover the PRODINFO from there.
Or extract it from a full NAND backup which you should have if you followed any guide worth its salt.
Otherwise, you're out of luck.
