Hacking Accidentally booting CFW on SYSNAND. Flagged for ban?

[LightBeam]

And that's why you remove the launch entries you aren't using

Can you quickly explain to me how to do that (or give a ressource that would explain how to) ? It would be appreciated, honestly it's more because of ignorance rather than laziness lol

My switch is setup to autoboot into an emunand. After formatting my sd card for a clean atmosphere install, I rebooted my switch and instead of autobooting into my emunand, it autobooted into my sysnand, with cfw. I immediately shut it off (didn't futz around with HBL or anything).
My WIFI was not on, but I plan to use my sysnand for online games later down the road. Because I booted into the sysnand with cfw, am I "flagged" for a ban when I log into wifi later? Do I need to do a nand restore? My OFW is on 9, but my nand backup is from 8.
Thanks in advance for advice

So did you get banned or not? I just did the same thing you did

Booting into CFW on SysNAND does not get you banned. There are certain things that will flag you to getting banned. I can confirm simply just booting into CFW and using a homebrew like EdiZon to restore and backup saves has not gotten me banned for well over a year

I did this yesterday by accident (booted into cfw sysnand), never done it before, wanting to keep it clean since I want to play online, have some purchases etc. I was a little worried but think I should be fine
There are people who go online with cfw (pokemon, hacked raids) and they don't get insta-banned. (but I guess for that situation, Nin could log if you are hosting stuff like that, I have read people have been banned for hosting hacked raids)

My unbanned system with cfw on sysnand has been online almost 24/7 for 2 years

(honest question) - why do you use cfw on your sysnand online?

It's faar more convenient & I know what I'm doing.
Plus it's funny seeing all those people saying "gOiNG oNlINe WiTh CFw iS iNsTa bAN" while I've been doing it with no issues for years hehe

@ZachyCatGames What is the reason for doing this on sysnand rather than on emunand? Are there any advantages?

He said it’s more convenient because it boots straight into sysnand and he doesn’t manually have to change to emunand everytime

He only said, that its more convenient, nothing else.

Well, as I said, it’s more convenient to be able to do everything on one nand.
And I use sysmmc specifically because it’s faster & it’d be sitting there doing nothing if I used emummc.

so I guess you use homebrew apps? but no piracy, since that would get you banned right?
or with cfw now, is piracy also hidden from Nin? (but of course, not playing pirated stuff online)

I have zero pirated content/NSPs installed on my system, correct.

Hi there, have you tried going online with CFW to play 60fps patched games? And do you overclock all the time online?

I intended to hack my switch just to play games at a higher fps. No cheats/pirated games/edited save, just 60fps patch for games. I wish to play borderlands 2 online at 60fps.

I OC in a lot of the games I play, yes.
I don't use 60fps patches (because I don't like being tethered to a charger), but I do use graphics mods for Xenoblade 2 and Xenoblade DE.
Whether they are or aren't safe to use online probably depends on the game.

Oh i see.
Do you use the graphic mods online? Do the graphic mod modify the game contents, or it is an external mod which keeps the game unmodified?

I never bothered with emunand. just made a full backup, firmware 8.1.0 i think. As long as there is not a future update that breaks the systems compatibility with that backup (weird module update GameCard slot, wi-fi, etc.) I will be fine... i think.

My Switch is almost always connected to the internet, so yes.
The Xenoblade ones are just config file changes iirc.
