What is wrong with auto rcm ?Hi, I'm new and learning about switch hb. I plan to install Kosmos. I wish to avoid burning fuses. Also I wish to avoid autoRCM. From what I read, I have to use a jig everytime the console is turned off, and on.
So,
-Can I leave a jig on 24/7? is there any downside to that?
-Would that affect how I have to use the cfw/homebrew, if I leave the console in sleep mode?
-Do I have to have a jig on whenever I update?
-what happens if my electricity goes off when the switch is on sleep mode?(will it reboot when electricity is restored?, in this case, should a jig be on the switch to prevent any fuse to burn when the power comes back? )
Well, I was scared to "brick" a console, power drains and mostly wondering about my house electricity being disconnected scenario. And I thought it was unnecessary if I had a perma-jig. But based onWhat is wrong with auto rcm ?
Well it kind of bricks the console because it breaks Nintendo’s bootloader, so you always enter rcm.Well, I was scared to "brick" a console, power drains and mostly wondering about my house electricity being disconnected scenario. And I thought it was unnecessary if I had a perma-jig. But based on
Draxzelex thread/faq, most of my concerns were addressed; so almost nothing now, I guess?
What firmware are you on?I wanted to ask if we got any news on hacking patched switches?
Running SX 2.7.1 and OFW 8.0.1
Can i link my nintendo account if use stealth mode, ftp server disabled? I never log in ofw.
The latest, im afraid i don´t know exactly which one. Should I stay on that one? And, if needed, can I downgrade mi firmware?What firmware are you on?
If there is news, I’m pretty sure they will let you know.
Well you’re fucked if you have a patched unit and on 8.0.1. You’re gonna be waiting a few years possibly. And downgrading is impossible on a patched unit. Idk why you updated.The latest, im afraid i don´t know exactly which one. Should I stay on that one? And, if needed, can I downgrade mi firmware?
To find the games, you will have to look yourself. And unless I'm mistaken, any game should be available as long as they're released.What is the better CFW for Switch? I have not hacked in awhile. The last thing I modded was my Wii U. Where do you find the program for downloading free games. Are all switch games available to download or do only selected games to play? Does the cfw need to be continuously updated to run newer games? or is it more like 1 cfw fits all as long as the System software doesn't update. Is there a way to block Auto updates for the switch.
Atmosphere is the best in my opinion. To block updates use 90DNS.What is the better CFW for Switch? I have not hacked in awhile. The last thing I modded was my Wii U.

Although it won't affect your SD card, having a linked Nintendo account to your EmuNAND carries the same amount of risk as not having a linked Nintendo account.Can you factory reset emunand without having the sdcard or sysnand messed with? It seems silly... But I'm afraid of losing everything and can't seem to find it mentioned.
I would feel a lot more comfortable without my Nintendo ID linked to my emunand

I run the banning thread and I do not have a single verified account a banned account. On the opposite side, if you are this paranoid about a ban, you probably shouldn't be hacking your console in the first place.I appreciate the response and understand that.
I know nothing is a guarantee but I'd like to take every precaution possible (DNS, Stealth mode, Applying incognito) before I'm brave enough to use retro achievements in retroarch and removing my ID is just another step. It would suck of they were able to see that much and ban my account.
