    Tutorial How to install/run ANY Switch firmware UNOFFICIALLY (WITHOUT burning any fuses)

    Perfect thanks Drax - so basically start at step 5 right? Get the version I need, load ChoiNX, make sure I tick exfat and autorcm and fire away. I guess if I was being super careful I could backup my user partition for all the save games since i upgraded to 3.0.2. My original pre hack backup is...

    Tutorial How to install/run ANY Switch firmware UNOFFICIALLY (WITHOUT burning any fuses)

    Also curious about this. Used CNX to go from 3 to 3.0.2. Autorcm and exfat enabled. If I now want to go to 5 or 6. Do I just follow the steps as I did or do I have to first go back to 3 and then up to 5 or 6?

    Hacking Hot Swap USBC XCI success and questions

    So with that device would you have your xci on a microsd, plugged into that device which in turn is connected to the switch's usb c port? If that is right then i'm guessing you cant use it docked or plug charger in? Or have i misunderstood the point of that device?

    Cheers. Ok that makes sense. And I guess the only downside to updating now is if I want to downgrade back to below 4 I won't be able to use the physical gamecart slot at all but I'd still be able to mount any xci I like using sxos right? It just breaks physical cartridge access?

    Gamecart slot firmware Q. So I get how the fuses work with the main Switch OS – fuses only burn if you boot into OFW and it detects a lower number of fuses burnt for that OS version. I’m safe as I have AutoRCM enabled. What I’d like to get my head around is how the gamecart slot works. I am...

    Hi guys sorry if already answered. I know on OFW the right way to switch SD card is to fully power down and then do it. Whats the right way when using sxos and autorcm...knowing a full shutdown will just reboot into rcm? So is it a corruption risk for my sd card to eject it while in rcm? Two...

    Hacking Question [Poll] What CFW are you currently using

    In the whole xci vs nsp debate. Purely from a factual/technical view point (for a noob like me) is this right?: Xci - place file on SD card and open from there directly with sxos. Therefore can store as many games as your SD card can store Nsp - you still store source file on SD but have to...
