Hacking 8.0.0 is live

[gizmomelb]

Only if you have a previous backup or working emunand <=7.0.1.

Thaikoha posted an hour or so ago - SX OS 2.6.1 - 2.6.2 works on Sysnand 8.0 to boot Emunand 7.0.1 - Sleep mode works as expected.

if your switch is an ipatched unit, then yes (so far as I understand).

Excuse me can you please describe what is an ipacthed?

Yes, and a previous working 7.0.1 or lower emunand is required

What if Mortal Kombat and Cuphead require 8.0? *mindblown*

Simple. I'll get it on steam or ps4. Lol!

According to this thread, the fuse count stays the same though. Unless I misinterpreted it.

If you are already on firmware 7.x and upgrade to 8.0.0, then no fuses are burnt, if you are on 6.2 or lower then it will burn, if you update officially

Is there a way to delete the update after it has downloaded but not been applied?

Damn. I buy cuphead and I think I'll need to go to the eShop to activate it.. How can I activate it without update ?
TX'll have a bad time again...

Nah SXOS should work fine, they never changed masterkey this time around.

Hope you're right and that he'll arrive quickly

From what I understand there has been a "secret" (unreleased) software exploit for some time, and now that Nintendo has patched it, there's no reason to keep it a secret anymore.

Yeah true.

Tough decision to stay on 7.0.1 because Super Mario Maker 2 will be out soon, and I want to play it real badly, so I'll end up updating to 8.0.0 anyway lol

That's great cheers just done that, disabled AutoRCM, rebooted to maintenance mode. Re-enabled AutoRCM and booted back up now no nags for software update.

That game kind of require online play as well. Man I love the first game, but all those kaizo levels tho.. x3

Thank God for SXOS Emunand!

Since software exploits don't work with 8.0.0 anymore... Dejavu when?

 

[hippy dave]

I'm waiting for 8.0 offline version so I can test if updating my emuNAND works with 8.0 or not.

Emunand 8.0 will definitely not work right now, as booting emunand means booting CFW, and all CFW is definitely broken for 8.0 until it gets updated for it, this is confirmed.

yup.. already tested and confirmed not working. As well as flashed my SD Card back to the 7.0.1 emuNAND it was before the upgrade. Didn't take long to test / verify or restore so was happy to do it.

Yeah if you update you're emunand to 8.0.0 then you're screwed for now, but a couple people have reported that Emunand is still working with OFW 8.0.0 and Emunand 7.0.1 or lower.

I am glad I dont have to worry about this cause I dont own a Switch but if I ever do it nice to fall back here to those that have been modding with Switch

 

[jakkal]

Yeeeeeeeah, since I'm not on 4, I've officially given up ever modding my Switch.

This is really good news for me
