    Hacking Atmosphere-NX - Custom Firmware in development by SciresM

    Ah, thank you. That was the answer I was waiting for :D I just came up with that idea, because someone said some pages ago, that the main reason, we could noch just swap Nintendos FW with our own is, that Nintendo signes (or encrypts?) their firmware with their key, so that we would run...

    But for a server to validate the keys, the switch first has to connect to the server. Afaik this doesn't happen during the boot sequence. So all certificates, keys or, if you will, (local) certificate servers are under our control. So basically you could completely implement your own crypto...

    I just thought that, assuming we have write access to the required areas, we could overwrite the key Nintendo uses while booting, since they still have to be stored on the console. So, if you could overwrite all keys with keys of your own, it wouldn't matter if you didn't have Nintendos...

    I'm aware of that. My suggestion is: Creating a new public/private key pair Writing the new public key to the Switch while backing up the original public key Using the newly created private key to sign the CFW and give the CFW the original public key for further use

    A question regarding nintendos signing key which was talked about a few pages back: If they sign the FW, the switch must have a matching key to check the validity. Do we have write access to that key via RCM? If yes, couldn't we extract it, replace it with a key of our own and sign CFW with the...
