Hello
What is the most convenient way to backup and restore save games on a hacked switch ?
Thanks
hb app called JKSV
so ive got a cfw switch with tinfoil and some other apps
but when i turn it off i have to use the nugget thing
is there a way to not keep having to use the nugget
quit turning it off, put it to sleep. rcm mode switches are all tethered cfw. meaning you need to rehack it everytime you turn it off. can only get around this using a trinket chip or a mod chip

hello ! after a while with homebrewed my switch, i wish to go back to the normal part and play online and stuff with any chance to get ban. the thing is that i did'nt do a partition on my sd card, and i dont know what to do with the backup i've made

and the biggest mistake, i've been using homebrew stuff on the sysnand...

somebody can help me ? should i reset completely the console ?
the backup i've made look like this and idk what to do with it

You need to copy all those files into the restore directory right there at the top of your picture and then inject Hekate and hit restore. Then simply remove your sd card and boot as normal and you will be back to stock.

Here‘s a good writeup:

https://nh-server.github.io/switch-guide/extras/nandrestore/

Pay particular attention to the section about fuses. If your backup is really old you might have issues booting if the fuse checking algorithm believes you are downgrading.

also be aware that if yiu want to hack again you should start with a fresh backup and this time do an emunand partition.

Hey guys, after updating my system to 14.1.1 and atmosphere to 1.3.1 (as guided at the forum), the only game I have installed at the moment is giving me the message "Checking if the software can be played..." and then the error 2124-0220 (A Nintendo Account is required). I've tried LINKALHO e the Fake Nintendo Account option on Tinfoil, but it keeps happening. I've downgraded the OFW to 14.1.0, and still no good...
If anyone could help, I'd appreciate!
Thanks
Did your case has been solved?if yes what did you do?

is this for all games or just xb3?

which FW, Atmosphere and Hekate are you on?

Sigpatches (GBATemp) — alternative Sigpatches for when others don’t seem to work.

Try going into maintenance mode (steps 1 and 2 but not 3) and then reboot.)

did you update Sigpatches?

Do you have multiple accounts/profiles on this switch?

What methods are you using to block Online connectivity to Nintendo? (90DN, exosphere, dns:mitm?)

try to play the same non-working game with each of the different accounts.

If this is on emunand (not you main Sysnand) you could eliminate all but one account and reinstall the games using that one account and then linking it via linkhalo

also try in airplane mode (or even with networking completely off.)



On a side note, I would also recommend further measures to ensure blocking of Ninty servers:

I know zilch about hacking - are there Switch hacks that extend into the online sphere, which gives you advantages in, I dunno, games like Splatoon or Smash Ultimate?
If you mean offline, there are plenty of mods and hacks that could help noob players out. If you mean online, that's just asking for a ban. Online hackers don't exist in any game so your presumption is correct.

Ah, that makes sense. And what do bans mean in this context? I remember vaguely reading a story online (could have been fake, though) about a console's online functionality being bricked just for hacking - Is that the case if you try to cheat online in the Nintendo Switch? Or are there other punishments? Just wondering!

Regardless of Nintendo's views on hacking, when you buy a console, it is still legally yours so Nintendo is not allowed to harm the functionality of it. Online however is a different story since it uses their servers and isn't tied to the console itself. There are also multiple types of bans but if you're going to cheat in an online game, you can either expect a full ban on all online services such as the eShop and Nintendo online or a game-only ban where you can still use the eShop and other online games but you're not allowed to go online with the game you cheated in.

A ban in this context means that your Switch will not be able to connect to any Nintendo services online, with the one exception being system updates. So no online multiplayer, no cloud saves, no eShop. You can still access anything else online that you could before, e.g. if you have a YouTube app you'll still be able to watch videos. Just nothing Nintendo.
