Hacking Question Am I still safe?

AkitoTheHedgy · Jun 28, 2019

Well I just got into switch haxing yesterday, and I accidentally went to cfw instead of Hekate. But! I was offline and I didn't crash anything.

After that, I backuped my NAND. So Is my NAND Still safe?

Nope, you have to boot hekate first prior , do nand backup prior to booting CFW.

Doesn't matter which CFW, since you boot into Horizon OS while on CFW, so it get logged, going online would just get you banned.

You are unlikely to get banned if all you did was boot into Atmosphere and nothing else. I wouldn't worry about it.

This. Although nobody is 100% sure everything of what Nintendo looks for when they ban you, in your case it doesn't looks that worrisome if that's truly all you did.
But then again, you are not 100% safe. Even if they wouldn't ban you today, maybe someday they might be able to detect that log (if they can't already).

There have been very few if any cases at all of booting just CFW leading to a ban, especially if you turn off your device after without having done anything else on a fresh cfw (homebrew, crashes, etc.).

Your nand is probably still safe at least for now, who knows what Nintendo else has in ways to detect to cause a ban though.

It may not be "clean", but its possible that it isn't being detected/cared about by Nintendo.
