If you have the correct boot0/boot1 and the raw gpt nand backup you can try, you can always wait for atmosphere to add support.
Nope, i have only the .nca files to put in choidoujour, i haven't any backups, there is no way to enter in that app from hekate?

There is a guide anywhere? I'm curious and bored rn lol

It is a really long tedious process and even I advise aginst it. If you dont have you console biskeys it's even longer and harder to do.

The base guide is on sdsetup

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

I should also note doing it and messing up can brick your switch

Oh you have got to be kidding me!!!

I JUST updated to FW 8.1 without burning fuses because there's a new game with online compatibility that I want to play which releases soon, and I checked the damn "Exploits, Custom Firmwares & Soft Mods" forum for info just like this before I updated and saw no warning...

I've burned too many fuses already. Guess I have to play the waiting game now:/


Thanks for the heads up anyway Drax

Um excuse me, but i was going to homebrew my switch until i just found this out -yes this is my first time doing this on a nintendo switch. i did homebrew my 3ds like years ago. Anyway i ended up -without knowing of this, ended up updating my nintendo switch. And i went on ahead to check how to homebrew the switch on here, and i followed the site for the nintendo switch homebrew guide that was left on one of the forms that was pinned underneath the category for the switch. -Once, i went there i noticed that, the one who made the guide is having problems, but he did mention this; 'Version 8.1.0 currently does not boot from Hekate, both Atmosphere and stock firmware. To boot Atmosphere, please follow these steps until Hekate is updated.' -So i was wondering is it still possible for me to homebrew my switch through Atmosphere while being on 8.1? Or should i just wait until sciresm actually fixes the problem? Oh, and -no i haven't touched my switch yet -just checked this out first before anything lol.

I ended up checking his twitter account, and found out myself. Also i would like to know -do i really need a peperclip to do the jig for RCM?? Or do i not need it??? Because, I am a bit afraid of doing it -and i am on the post of how to do it. I just wanted to know if that is an important step to make Atmosphere boot up on my nintendo switch for homebrew to work completely? Sorry if i am asking too many questions. -Edit: just to make it clear i cannot go online while i am on homebrew of my nintendo switch? Also, is it true that i can homebrew my switch just by using one of my accounts, and if that one by -example get's caught -can i actually use a different account that i have on my switch as profiles or it will affect all of my profiles on my nintendo switch -if i get banned or in trouble?? Would like to know this, because i am not sure how the homebrew works while i am just using one profile -like can i turn off the homebrew feature or is it gonna like stay there o.o;;..again sorry if i am asking too many questions or i sound dumb ;-;"
