is my switch hackeable?

[joshiors]

Hey! Months ago Team Xecuter was captured. If my switch is patched and in 9.2.0 version, I have any possiblity to hack it?

Only with a modchip. Check out some of the modchip threads for details.

Yeah I readed that but readed too that it was dangerous to keep buying the modchips since Team Xecutor web was down and some of their integrants in prison. Thks for answer btw.

Depend on what you got if you got patched unit, mariko, oled then you need the modchip

you can check above if you got an v1/v2 that you are unsure.

Since you already stated that your switch is patched this is the only option available. Legal challenges aside the original SX modchips are pretty hard to find these days. There has been reported success with clones on AliExpress and other sites. Modchips can absolutely run the latest Atmosphere if you find and install a good one.

I remember that something like a year ago I tested the fusee gelee payload but didn't work.

About the modchip I'll search, but how to know which is a good one?

I saw the xkit rcmloader, but says that only works with switch realized before June of 2018, and mine is from 2019...

xkit rcmloader is only for unpatched consoles. If yours is patched, forget about it. You can also check with your serial number here.

A switch made in 2019 is almost certainly patched.

Since you’d be dealing in clone chips it’s hard to make a recommendation without recent firsthand knowledge. Maybe someone else can chime in with their experience.

I checked and my switch is in the "definitely patched" range... So, knowing all this I think I have no chance to hack it, isn't it? Thanks to all who commented.

You can't get in trouble for buying one... if ya can find one.

If it's saying "definitely patched", my guess is the only option you have is a modchip. sorry. Could always try to find a Chinese knockoff modchip clone. Tho I don't know much about the modchip junk, my switch is a low SN 1st gen switch, and is moddable without a modchip.

Buying a mod chip is 1 thing..... knowing how to solder it to your Switch is another.
Don't just go blindly looking for a chip if you dont have the skills to hardmod it yourself b/c then you need to pay extra money for someone to do it for you.

I'm sure if they are asking about it here, that they already know the risk of using a mod chip. Tho if i'm wrong, they better have good eyes and steady hands. Tho I've watched some pretty bad installs of the same switch modchips on youtube, and some of them do the worst jobs ever and somehow it works for em lol.

TX chips aren't impossible to find but they'll cost you. Your best bet is finding a HWFly or the new HWoled. The people who make the HWFly and people who make the HWoled don't seem to be the same group. No word yet on if the HWoled works on non-oled consoles but it should work fine if you can get the correct flex cables, you can get just the flex cables pretty cheap or maybe someone here who has spares can mail them to you.

Moneywise its going to cost him nearly the same price as getting a Switch if he goes the solder chip route with no soldering skills. So in situations like this he will have to do some deep digging in finding a pre hacked switch or a used OG model. Most new users don't really have any clue on switch hacking, they are just interested in how b/c this forum always gets cited from other places like YouTube for more info. Also lots of folks got a Switch as Christmas gifts which is probably why we see these topics more often now.

Hi! In terms of software I know a little; I hacked my 3ds 4 years ago. But, about Switch, I don't know much, and less about hardware. I think the only available option 4 me now is to buy a second hand switch that can be hacked.
