    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    Wasn't everything pretty crappy back then like homebrew creating their own error codes etc. Those people only ever used XCIs, updated them online and nothing homebrew related whatsoever? It's hard to imagine anyone truly being that careful back when layeredFS was a thing, since bans were just...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    That's good to know. You do have reports of users who updated their "XCI was here" icons later in online sysnand (not in SXOS), and they got banned even though that's all they ever did?

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    I'm still skeptical of the xci updating on OFW being the cause. Maybe there is something about emunand/NSP installing or stealth mode that isn't foolproof. Has there been any reports of anyone getting banned that only ever used SXOS offline, no network settings, no wifi nearby that requires no...

    Hacking Question Payload loader for iOS?

    Just got done doing a bunch of tests. This is a FANTASTIC piece of utility! It works flawlessly on: iphone 7 10.1.1 with mach_portal+extra_recipe, iphone X on 11.3.1 with electra vfs (haven't needed to reboot to try mp+tcp, shouldn't be any different anyways), ipad pro 1st Gen on 10.2 with...

    Hacking Build your own dongle (Research and development thread)

    Trying to keep this short, does anyone have any tips on what exactly to make OpenWRT on a portable powerbank+router run that will automatically send a payload during boot to a connected APX usb host? I have gotten raspbian to send a payload "automatically" using watch but I stopped with that...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    It might help if you clarify what you're saying a little if you're going to give advice and to stay away from blanket statements. What matters is that we don't know exactly how Nintendo decides you're going to be banned, and the data collected so far doesn't point to anything concrete. The only...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    *golf clap* for doing this. I was considering saying or doing something similar to this but I prefer if I have no additional reason to try something online outside of "hey I want to play this offline with its latest update" or buy something from the eshop.

    Hacking Mario+Rabbids still asking for update but I'm on latest OS.

    So much FUD. Safely, carefully updating games while in OFW and precautions taken is not proven to get you banned despite the few unverifiable claims that that's all they did. Sure, if you want 100% protection from being banned then never turn wifi on for whatever reason, ever. They can't ban you...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    I was curious about this as well. It was one of the reasons I was skeptical of the "interesting log changes gets you banned" stuff to begin with outside of obviously errors being logged that are created by homebrew developer tools. You could factory reset and the logs would be cleared AFAIK, so...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    I don't like saying this, but can you source any of this? If what you're saying is true I would love the opportunity to read about it. Edit instead of additional post: Reading the SciresM tweet is really disheartening, for a number of reasons. It is painful to think that not only in general...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    This is still speculation! Here's my speculation that I came up with straight out of my butt: I have seen plenty of reports here (not that this is even meaningful given the low sample data) that someone got banned within 10 minutes of doing something that they think triggered the ban, for the...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    This isn't mind boggling. The data set is still incredibly low, and all the data is self reported. It is way too easy for someone to have forgotten "that one time" they did something they didn't say they did in a long, self reported data set with unreliable potential cause-effect consequences...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    I have to admit, I was about to rage a little if you ended all that buildup with "and I'm banned" because I've seen so many reports that go over just how careful they have been but were still banned and I can't help but be incredible skeptical of claims like that. I obviously don't know for...

    Tutorial Precautions to take to avoid getting banned

    I know it can be considered nit-picky but that evidence is anything but. Accessing eshop while booted in hekate even if you only ever run homebrew is just asking for something undesirable to happen. The action of clearing logs could have nothing to do with it whatsoever and it would still make a...

    Hacking Nintendo Switch Banning Hub & Warning

    You said you were booted into hekate, played homebrew and even checked the eshop, so at some point you were presumably online with a CFW loaded and used homebrew while online? You potentially even did something so innocuous as cleared logs (requiring a reboot) while having a wireless connection...

    Tutorial Precautions to take to avoid getting banned

    How about use clear logs function, but then power off completely and boot OFW from power-off without having it being booted first through hekate+clear logs? I know it's probably not necessary, but you could do this as a check that AutoRCM isn't still installed for some reason after first...
