I'm quite surprised about this answer.
If you followed the 3DS scene, Luma was forked from ReiNAND which was made by the same person who created ReiNX. Meaning before Luma, everyone used ReiNAND. And until Atmosphere is completed, ReiNX is the way to go. You can port the patches in the unofficial builds of ReiNX to be used with Hekate so you have both .NSP and LayeredFS support making Hekate the superior "CFW".
I was not really that familiar about the history of 3DS hacking in its chronological order. But I am aware how awesome the ReiNAND exploit and Luma3DS CFW were. I'm actually surprised to know that Luma3DS was derived from ReiNAND and even surpassed it.
You can download them from external sources. I do not think the topic of pir@cy is supported here so I cannot gvie you a link.
Hekate is by far the best all-around CFW since ReiNX doesn't implement the patches needed to play .NSPs independently as well as being able to feature unique tools the best of which is dumping the NAND.
I'm just waiting for my Switch to arrive after having placed an order online. I shall see by then what Hekate is all about.
Pretty much. Also, you cannot 'install' Hekate as the exploit is lost upon reboot. Its more accurate to say you 'ran' Hekate but I understand what you are trying to say. You can use whatever terminology you prefer, just be aware that others may jump on you for not using the right wording.
True. As it appears, Hekate is not a "CFW" but rather a bootloader. It's Atmosphere that's the CFW that typically comes with it.
I mean we've got a guide to playing backups right here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-reinx-installation-and-use.512342/
It would be after the SX OS menu boots however with an activated license, it won't boot into the menu automatically, instead it will jump straight to CFW unless you continue holding volume +
ReiNX currently uses copyrighted files to accomplish the backup launching meaning you have to move more files onto your SD card. Their goal is to remove these files and implement a copyright-free method of applying these patches but what they will look like is up to them. The process is honestly pretty straightforward as is since it just involves copying and pasting files and folders onto your computer. Atmosphere won't be implementing backup launching when its completed and will need to be added by someone other than the team developing it which is ReSwitched.
Any console that is hacked and goes online risks getting banned. Certain actions are more likely to get you banned than others (i.e. piracy) but the point is no hack is considered safe. Only ways to avoid being banned is by staying offline or restoring a NAND dump made before hacking the console.
