    Thank you impeeza. I never took the unit online, so I'm good there. I used Hekate and verified that only 5 fuses are burnt which coincides with my memory of the unit having OFW 4.1.0. My assumption moving forward is that IF I restore my original NAND, BOOT0, and BOOT1 from backup, that the...

    What? It can't be that simple. I thought that the original backup was because the SysNAND was modified or overwritten when CFW was used. If it's all SDcard based, why back up in the first place?

    My original firmware was 4.1.0, I dumped my original nand etc before ever trying CFW. I bought a license from those people that went to jail, and have always used choidujournx when updating my firmware so I wouldn't burn fuses. I want to restore my original nand etc. I can't find the guide to...

    Hacking Animal crossing NH ban ??

    Good day everyone. I first updated to SXOS 2.9.4, then used choidujournx to update my firmware to 9.1. I installed ACNH to my sdcard, then applied ACNH update 1.1 - When I try to launch the game from the home screen, it says a system update is needed to play the game. What are your...

    Yes, the web site was down. However, you can just replace the 2.5.3 boot.dat file on your SD card, with the newer boot.dat file that you download from their web site.

    I know it's late, but FAT32 is the way to go. You can put your larger files on a USB thumb drive that is exfat, and plug it into the dock, works fine for me.

    Bootloader\payloads is empty. SXOS "boot.dat and license.dat" are in the root of SD. Maybe the SX dongle has a proprietary payload built into it?

    I booted Hekate with the SXOS SD card in, I just get the Hekate menu, nothing else.

    Son of a gun. I have the SX OS Pro, and have been using it without issue. I took a clean SD card and installed Atmosphere 0.8.6 Now I can't get back to SX OS, when I boot the switch with my sx os SD card and the dongle attached, it says Atmosphere, cannot find/load xxx. I guess you can't switch...

    Ok, update to 6.2.0 (AMS 0.8.6) completed successfully. I got the, I assume, normal warning about "you must use the preventgcupdate launch configuration every boot if you want to prevent gc controller update" I clicked Restart, and Atmosphere loaded. Immediately got a dialog box that says, a...

    It's time to update my firmware. Switch has OFW 4.1.0 I had been running SX OS Pro. I've read that using ChoiDujourNX via SX OS is bad. I grabbed a SD card and deleted everything other than the Nintendo folder. Installed Atmosphere 0.8.6 Now from homebrew I launch ChoiDuJourNX, and I cannot...
