Hiya!

My switch is on 6.2.0, I'm trying to install Dragon Quest Builders 2, but tinfoil says it's a 'bad dump', im 99% sure its firmware version problem.

There's a way to run this .nsp on lower firmwares? I know I cant use ChoiDujourNX to update my switch, but i'm afraid something goes wrong :D

Make a NAND backup (if you don't already have one) and update to 8.1.0 using ChoiDujourNX.

i tried lithium once, and it worked great. maybe try that.
I tried lithium too, but it says "need higher firmware" something like that

Where I download the update? (already have ChoiDujourNX)

Ok! Just one more question, if I boot on OFW after updated with ChoiDujourNX (offline) will my fuses burn? Or only if I go online?

You only want to use ChoiDujourNX on a dirty NAND that you keep offline (or that you use 90DNS and/or Incognito with to block Nintendo's servers).

If you boot OFW after updating (without using Hekate or another custom bootloader), you will burn fuses. If you don't want to burn fuses, you need to install AutoRCM when you update with ChoiDujourNX.

    or did you have to find a used one with the lower firm ware that was not updated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a picteof not updating just tell them don't update
