    Hacking Question Switch not booting properly. (SX Pro)

    Doesn't sound that way as he's implied that it's worked previously. From what I've read so far, they're ipatching the bootrom in the factory *prior* to burning the ODM_PRODUCTION eFuse, which should be irreversible/impossible to mitigate. Thankfully the same should be true for those with...

    Hacking Question Switch not booting properly. (SX Pro)

    Just to clarify, you can seemingly get into RCM mode (black screen) but can't get the Switch to accept a payload? Let me ask: Have you tried switching back to SX OS 1.2? Does AutoRCM still appear to be enabled, but you can't load a payload nor boot into Horizon? Has wifi been connected at any...

    Probably a fake. Run some tests on it if you want, but good news isn't likely I'm afraid. If it's new return it. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Hacking Discussion [PSA] SX OS Banwave is here!!!

    Said it earlier (perhaps in another thread) that whilst they probably aren't logging (or transmitting) the certs themselves when inserting them, you can get your ass they'll be logging the hashed modulii of the certs (which are as unique as the certs themselves) on insertion, and transmitting...

    Hacking Team-Xecuter Releases SX OS v1.2

    Downgrading will stick out to Nintendo like a sore thumb when connecting online, especially where they have the ability to count fuse burns. For example if you checked in with 5.1 yesterday, and check in with 3.0 tomorrow, HUGE red flag. There's no reason currently to downgrade, so unless...

    Hacking Discussion [PSA] SX OS Banwave is here!!!

    Those "no sue" clauses are notoriously difficult to enforce, but save yourself the hassle and don't bother. Nearly everyone would lose. Using unique certs for practically every shread of content makes it easy for them to prove their actions just, so they have every right to protect their...

    Hacking Discussion [PSA] SX OS Banwave is here!!!

    Not really a conspiracy theory, but certainly speculative. It's relatively trivial these days to ingest huge quantities of aggregated logs from many sources and perform automated analytics across all of it. Constantly, every waking hour. Throw a chaos monkey into the equation, and you can have...

    Hacking Discussion [PSA] SX OS Banwave is here!!!

    Just my two cents, but I'd imagine that Nintendo are savvy enough now not to fully show their hand by banning everyone immediately. One week after the release of SX there's no need for ban waves (so to speak); they could easily ban whomever has loaded backups (assuming their telemetry data is as...

    Hacking Discussion [PSA] SX OS Banwave is here!!!

    SX (and other firmwares) should probably try to implement a "Enforce disabled networking stack" togglable option for when you boot into CFW. That way, if you're the pirating type you could be safe in the knowledge that CFW will never go online. To update a game you'd be forced to boot OFW and...

    Out of curiosity, is the first-time update for Doom content in-game or as normal within Horizon? Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Hacking Question https://stargate3ds.com.de - how trustful is the site?

    Definitely treat all such resellers with a tad more caution than you would your average eCommerse store. Being an official reseller is not worth much in terms of trustworthyness. For example, MrModchips (in his various incarnations) was an official reseller for over a decade, and was a renowned...

    Hacking Question Trying to boot dumped 4.1 emmc on 5.0.2 updated switch through hekate

    I'm speculating here (and you might have already considered this), but I'd imagine this time around they have logged the highest version your console has signed in using. Prey that the console doesn't connect via wifi after the efuse check failure halts the boot process. Downgrade attempts are...

    Hacking Show us your Jig!

    Interesting! I printed out the same jig to replace my first print of the original F0F jig, but found it almost impossible to feed the wire through the holes; it's pretty much sealed despite me being able to see the channel for it through the jig (used clear PLA). Printed at 100 microns so the...

    ROM Hack [Release] ExInjector - Inject original exheaders into repacked roms

    Your x64 makerom binary segfaults during the creation of the cxi. If you check a post of mine from a few days ago, you need to comment out line 130 in ncch.c for makerom for it not to segfault in x64 Linux. You *may* have to do that for the x86 binary too, but I've not tested that. It's clearly...
