Thanks. Should I get a jig or should I use tinfoil? what are the benefits of a jig?There's new switches out there that have been patched thus unhackable. It's by serial number. This thread will tell you which ones can/can't.

That doesn't automatically mean just buying used will = hackable. But buying new probably means unhackable. It's kinda tricky. I got mine at a pawn shop yesterday and looked at the serial number before I purchased it, I was given no crap for asking. But Gamestop has a lot of douchebags that might straight up ask you why you're asking. If it ends up being unhackable you can probably exchange it though and say it was defective.

Which one do you recommend?Get a jig off Ebay they're like $2. I just got my Switch yesterday and I'm using tinfoil but I got a jig coming. I read about the possibility of the tinfoil ruining your Switch and/or joycon, not worth it for $2.

NopeHello. My Switch was updated through stock, from 4.1.0 to 5.1.0, and I have a backup of 4.1.0. There´s no way for me to downgrade to 4.1.0 and be able to use a potential warmboot exploit on that fw, right? Thanks in advance.
hello community !
as soon as the n64 and ps1 and ps2 emulators come out for switch is when ill be jailbreaking.
tell me, what is nice about jailbreaking a switch right now ?? just to be clear?
besides the obvious im sure NES or SNES emulators, what good ones do you think we will see in near future ?? perhaps dreamcast??
i also have seen it emulates gamecube very well so im sure it has some power.
Ill definitely take a look! Thats all I needed for my Switch, but I bought my brother a Switch for Christmas yesterday, and I want to be able to load backups and stuff because hes young and cant afford games. I assume that part is covered in the guide?You can do majority of things SX OS accomplishes with free CFW. Follow this guide.
Sadly not! AFAIK it’s the actual manipulation of your Switch that causes Nintendo to ban you, whether you play pirated games or not. Simply going online with a Switch running CFW could get you banned, which is why most people will turn on flight mode after hacking it.Now, this is kind of a simple question but it'll probably be easy to answer. I'm a complete noob to the Switch as I literally just purchased one online. I heard about players getting banned online for playing hacked games, so, can I circumvent that by just buying copies of the games I intend to play online? Thanks in advance.
The guide gives you the homebrew application, Tinfoil, which is a title manager. One of its functions is to install .NSP files which, if you use a CFW that has "signature patches", will be able to install backups you do not own.Ill definitely take a look!

Buying SXOS isnt an issue for me, its quite cheap.
NX-Shell (file manager), Checkpoint (save manager), and ChoiDujourNX (firmware installer).Sooo , I succesfully inject the payload on my switch but when I restart my switch nothing as changed and the homebrew launcher doesn't work when I go to the album
Any ideas? the part with the 10th pin was so difficult I hope I won't have to do it again
EDIT : I went to the discord of ReinX guide and they were really nice to me and help me a lot , my Nintendo switch is functionnal now ! I just have to find some good homebrews so if you guys, have any ideas feel free to tell me !
No. You would only need to reinstall your games if your SD card becomes corrupted for example.If I either update firmware or update Reinx am I going to have to reinstall all my games with Tinfoil?
