Hacking Any way to edit profile and fake link account?

AtPDeAtHKiller · Jun 21, 2019

There's a homebrew app that completely automates the process...
it automates profile/save restoration?
because i have a ton of games and three profiles worth of games saved.

What kind of use do u actually have from a fake linked account? For example - I still cant play a saison character on diablo 3 or play via lan in Minecraft/Crossplay.

Any Idea?
basically some games wont start until there's a linked account on the console it seems. MK11 and freshly leaked bloodstained for example

mk11? And it doesnt rly answer my question :-/

mortal kombat 11.
and there's not really much more to explain.
some games like the ones mentioned can not be started without a linked account present. you can instal them but not play them.

NES Online also requires linked account, not to mentioned the recently leaked Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night

so I made a mistake with Kefir Updater, it worked, but I made a BACKUP of Edizon no Checkpoint... there's no way back right?

check the save files with devmenu, use the "minus" button and delete every save of user "n/a". when every save of n/a is gone, edizon works again and you should be able to restore the saves to your new profile.

I used that tool and now have a problem. so I had 3 user accounts on my switch, I backed up my main saves. run kefir to add a linked account. restored my save in the new profil. checkpoint still has 3 empty accounts with saves in which I can't delete anything. if I run edizon, I just get error code 2168-0002 (0x4a8). goldleaf only shows the new account. how do I completly delete those accounts + saves?

Just go to the system menu and delete the save data's, that fixes the error for Edizon.

Is there any way to play Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night without going online & linked account? Trying to play this game & caught in the loop of going online & linked account by pressing B/cancelling. Some games worked fine when cancelling going online.

Found this homebrew app that can do the account linking on device, no need to do all this manual work anymore.

https://github.com/Povstalez/Kefir-Updater/releases

Don't use the updater part tho, that will install a cfw package similar to kosmos.

@Povstalez made it

How do you back up your saves and does the Switch have to be on latests update?

Normally I use checkpoint to backup save file. Update to 8.1 or not it up to you.

It's been a late one and I don't get Kefir. I have currently copied and replaced my contents on USB with the Kefir sxos.zip and tried to add linked account through the kefir updater. it says it has been added. but then when I check I don't see any added accounts? I'm obviously doing something wrong lol

Hi there what I did is that I put kefir update.nro into swith folder and run CFW, then run it from HB menu. I not sure you will have to connect to internet or not, When you inside program just click add account after that done just restart console.New profile will show up.

This is exactly what I did and I. Used the NSP. Copied NSP + nro. Loaded SXOS Emunand 8.x. Connected to the internet. Launched the NSP. Select linked account. It said it was successful. Then wanted to reboot in to RCM. So I rebooted the switch. Loaded my SXOS emunand again. And I only have my original profile and all my saves still. Any ideas please?

I’m gonna say it’s the fact that you are using SXOS that’s the issue.

Hi can you try Kefir with ATM and then if it work just switch to SXOS Emu after?.

Hello I am running the latest SXOS and EMU is at 8.1 and I used Kefir to add an account without any issues. Also I just ran the .nro in the SXOS menu, was not online, and I used Checkpoint to back all my saves.

Only issue I had was when it asked to restart I canceled and backed out of Kefir. This of course errored out my switch and I had to manually shut it down. After restart the new account was there and I was able to get everything back to the way it was.

BTW Thank you everyone in this thread and the main Kefir thread.

Do you use exfat? I don’t want to have to recreate my emu and but if I have to I guess I will

ShigoNaito · Jun 28, 2019

I am using a hidden partition EMU and the SD was formatted to fat32. I just have a general Idea of how this works but my understanding is that this should work with a vanilla setup of ATMO or SXOS. You just need to download the Kefir Updater in the link that I gave, copy it to your switch folder where your other nro files go. Then go into the SX manu, run Ketir Updater and add account.

Again as stated before you need to make sure to backup your saves, then delete them from ALL the accounts that you currently have. Then after your done withe Kefir recreate the accounts and restore the saves.
