but nobody is looking in the tutorial forum
That doesn't matter. Things should go where they belong. Though even if this were labeled a tutorial instead of a suggestion, it's not even written well enough to be very useful. Finally, a newbie would completely ignore every existing thread including this one and make a new thread called "HELP MY SWITCH KEEPS ASKING ME TO UPDATE EVEN THOUGH I'M AT THE NEWEST FIRMWARE???"

So I m entering to stock Switch, my backups doesn't loads at all. But i can't get to the menu. Is exactly the 3 buttons pressed at once or can I hold volume+ + volumen- and the press power?

Okey got it, it needs to keep pressed untill it works. Over the Nintendo Switch launch logo, it will boot on this menu, not Ozone.

Thanks for this reminder. it works perfectly. Don't know why I didnt have 90DNS on my Switch when I recall doing it first time I enter online to my wifi.

I agree wholeheartedly. Poor formatting, no labeling, this hardly qualifies as a tutorial.

This has been posted numerous times in the last year. Let's be real, noobs should be ignored when they start threads because everything has been discussed here numerous times. People need to learn to do research for themselves instead of having their hand held.

Tutorials has tutorial subforum. :P
And you should write in title that this is about firmware update. I was thinking it will be about game updates.
yeah i though it was title update

as for firmware update, the OP is incorrect. you dont need to disable autorcm. You just need to inject payload before pressing the buttons

How can I do it with autorcm enabled? I try to press buttons before sending payload and I have payload launched (Hekate for example).

Thanks for helping the noobs.
You should probably also add AutoRCM needs to be re-enabled before turning on the device else fuses will be burnt.

But I try to press & hold volume buttons and it did not work :-(
What I normally do is about a second after my payload is injcted (atmosphere) I press and hold both volume up and down until the maintenance mode screen appears. It's right after the Nintendo switch logo

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.

    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @salazarcosplay if they made a prequel, it would still be about current issues, cause it doesn't make sense to make it about stuff that happened 30 years ago that nobody cares about anymore
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's too late
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the older south park episodes about particular issues usually age poorly since the topic is no longer relevant
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    an exception is giant douche vs turd sandwich, that's always relevant :P
