Hacking 6.2.0 released

[SageIsSerious]

That isn't granted.

I'm taking it that you don't have much faith in 6.2 being cracked anytime soon, if at all. Why is that?

 

[weatMod]

Emunand 6.0 still boots even on a 6.2 sysnand switch, so as long as emunand is not updated to 6.2, emunand will still work.

that is really weird , i figured it would be just the opposite , ut is like the total reverse as it was on the 3DS scene then?

With tinfoil's ability to bypass firmware requirements to run games is there any reason to update??

definitely not yet.

TSEC will be TSUCK real soon watch.

Watch what? You definitely are hoping someone will crack it.

I have faith in the scene.

According to Scires, it may be a long wait before we get homebrew on 6.2.

If they don't manage to defeat TSEC (and according to him it's a considerable possibility , then they will rely on userland exploits (thus beginning the game of cat and mouse with Nintendo patching exploits every new firmware)

Sounds like a team effort is needed and not a lone wolf.

SciresM is part of a team

Just want to be sure, it is not possible to access CFW or downgrade at all using emunand or any other method if you have no backups and you are on 6.2.0 ? I also assume that you cannot use backups from other switches. You are basically stuck not able to use NSPs or XCIs.

 

[Aniblaze]

For the people on 6.2: Couldn't you restore a 6.1 backup, and boot into that using CFW with the fuse check disabled? Sure sleep mode doesn't work, but that feels like a small price to pay. Or if you're using SX OS: Couldn't you restore SysNAND back to 6.1, create a 6.1 EmuNAND, and then update back to 6.2 on SysNAND? Just trying to think of a temporary solution to your problems.

 

[wurstpistole]

But if the console is fully banned and you can't load any homebrew could you still apply system updates in the future to play newer retail game carts?

Of course. With the game cart itself

Is it possible to use any of these methods even if you have not created a backup? I use sx os and I am on 6.2.0. I can boot into the rcm using the dongle, but have never touched the EmuNAND options.

I think you might be SOL.

 

[SonicMC]

Well, it's already prooven whatever you like it or not, exfat can get fucked up if a write goes wrong
Is a Nintendo problem (confirmed by TX), so don't use emunand if you don't want to fuck up, tx fanboy that have the need to say that their $35 were worthy when you don't even need to and can't accept single wrong thing

So 6.2.0 didn't stabilize the exfat problem then?...

 

[taggen86]

I think you might be SOL.

What do you mean by SOL? Är också svensk förövrigt

 

[linuxares]

What do you mean by SOL? Är också svensk förövrigt

SOL stands for "So Out of Luck" or "Shit Out of Luck"

Warning don't use exploits, it might brick your system, confirmed!!
Warning don't use exploits it might ban your system!
Warning don't use paperclips to enter recovery, it might ruin your joycon connectors!

The point is, many things currently are dangerous and can be harmful in the long run, yet we all use those or have used it without a single care in the world. People simply don't care that there is a small chance of corruption, and with the current early phase we're in, things like these are acceptable until they no less will be refined later on, as it always has in the scene. Let people use, what they want to use.

Im sorry for a bit of an OT but can someone point me to the right direction as I want to ''downgrade'' my 6.2.0. I have NAND backup ready from the 6.1.0

Boot RCM, start Hekate, restore NAND backup, done.
