Gaming Are all white box swithces hackable?

[Iamthelordjayson]

I found a second handed switch (white box) made in 2019, im wondering if it's hackable or not cuz it's the old version but built in 2019. Not sure about the serial number though

not with the traditional exploit no. there's a time period roughly between May 2018 to the launch of the new switches that produced ipatched units that can only currently be exploited IFF its firmware 4.1 (the very early ones) with pegascape. It may have some luck with the upcoming TX modchip but those are not officially out.

Do u think switch v2 will be hackable someday? If so, will the method be any similar to the current exploit or harder?

like i mention, 4.1 firmware ones are hackable via pegascape. If they find another software exploit, then thats just luck of the draw for now. The tegra exploit via hardware exploit won't be brought back to later ones. The only realistic hope is at the moment, getting the TX modchip on release if it does what it says it does.

Unless you have a 4.1 firmware ipatched switched, there's nothing you cant currently do. The newer the firmware currently on the device, the less likely there will be a software exploit for it, like any console hacking in a nutshell due to tightened security.

1. Sell it on Ebay
2. Use the profits to buy a hackable Switch on Ebay
3. ????
4. Profit

Once the modchip comes out the V2 switch will be hackable, but no it won't be nearly as easy. You will need to physically open your switch and solder it in to install it
