I installed an XCI file and after the icon appeared on the main screen as is needed. launching the game asks for an update. Question is, do i update it? or is this not recommended? I'm pretty new to this and am still figuring out the does and don'ts.
Either mount the NAND live using memloader or dump the NAND to mount with hacdiskmount. If you're going to be doing the latter, you can just dump the SYS partition rather than the whole 29 GB.
No, updating with ChoiDujourNX to firmware 6.0 may have gotten 2 users banned so I would recommend not going online if you update to firmware 6.0 offline until a cartridge dump has firmware 6.0. If you want to play games online as safely as possible, currently you must burn fuses (which will prevent you from downgrading) and update to firmware 6.0 officially.
AutoRCM doesn't drain battery; leaving the console in RCM drains battery. The issue here is that RCM looks identical to a Switch that is powered off so if you're not careful, the Switch could be in RCM and you may find out after its too late. This is because people did not understand how to turn off a console with AutoRCM installed. However, we now know the only way to turn off a console with AutoRCM is to do so while its in RCM. To enter RCM, simple Restart or Power Off the Switch; both of these will cause the console to reboot into RCM. Once in RCM, you can either do a manual shutdown (hold power for 12 seconds) or use Hekate's Power Off function.
You can risk a ban by downloading the update officially (even in OFW). If you want to be absolutely safe, download the update offline from your piracy site of choice.Thanks so much. That post helped me tons. Finally got my keys. Last question and I shall leave in peace
Have you done your pharmacy exam yet?
Correct; Sleep mode should be completely unaffected by the Switch with AutoRCM installed. Some users noted increased battery drainage in sleep mode due to AutoRCM however not only is this hard to believe (it affects a part of the Switch that is only used during startup) but there are too many variables to consider any of their findings to be valid.
Are you using ChoiDujourNX V101? I think V100 checks for the .ini file before launching. Also rather than using Hekate + Atmosphere to launch it, use ReiNX V1.6 since it doesn't require the need for an .ini to boot up.
Something tells me you would have to convince Nintendo first and foremost that you bought it second-hand and even then, they bear no responsibility towards second-hand purchases on account of making zero profit. However, there is only one way to find out if it will work after all but I'm still very doubtful it'll be successful.
But this is South Africa and they changed the way pharmacy's do business here, which was kinda lame, but yeah. Regardless i wish you all the best of luck
Your only ethical option is to inform all potential buyers as to what you have done with the Switch and that there exists a possibility it will be banned by Nintendo in the future. Obviously that will reduce its market value in most circumstances. You can also attempt to sell it as a modded Switch with all the “compiclicated” modding predone for the non-tech savvy buyer.
If you updated without burning fuses, it is highly recommend to keep it. Also AutoRCM is not bad at all and it does not in fact affect battery drain at all; the only thing that drains battery are RCM and users who did not know how to turn off a console with AutoRCM. In short, powering off the console from Horizon (name of the Switch's OS) with AutoRCM installed causes it to reboot into RCM. To power off a console with AutoRCM installed, you must do so from RCM. I conducted research on all of the AutoRCM-related myths and rumors and compiled them here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/psa-man...es-not-turn-off-a-switch-with-autorcm.515402/
Order doesn't matter but Tinfoil can crash if you load too many .NSP files. Not sure what the limit is off the top of my head but it is fragile.
