Technically you asked two questions, well actually you asked the same question in two different ways that necessitates two answers to one question.

So your answers are no and yes, in no particular order.

Github. He already told you. Though I don't know why you're being spoon fed whilst appearing pretty rude to be honest.

MY apologizes. I am just a little git confused. I did read github and still not sure.

I am not being rude. Just a little lost. Sorry if you think I am being rude but I am not.

hi, Is there a way to block game update notifications? can't play without updating, and I don't want to update the game.

It is recommended that you update the game. If that is not an option for whatever reason, you can use blawar's Tinfoil to remove the game update requirement, which will remove the update notification.

how do I remove the game update requirement? I have Tinfoil in my SD, but I don't know what to do? does it have to with tickets?

No. Just go to your games that are already installed, and you should find the option to remove the game version requirement.

Thank you, it worked.

Good Day guyss! I bought a nintendo switch that is a patched unit, however someone said to me that there will be update in the month of December this year and it says that my unit can be jailbroken. Is it true?

What firmware is it on? If it’s on 4.x you can actually hack it right now . If it’s on 7.0.1 or lower you’ll get hax in the future (though probably not in December, except like maybe 5.x). 8.0.x might be able to downgrade to 7.0.x in the future. And if you’re on 8.1.0 or higher you basically have no hope and will have to rely on hardmods (if any ever release)

There isn't only the master branch, you know.

It's a bug looks like. Nothing to do with cfw. The solution given in the article is disable Autosave.

I'd like to get some clarification about Atmosphere and the gamecart slot firmware update in 9.0+ firmware.

I'm currently still on 8.1.0 with fuses burned for 4.1.0. I've been putting off updating to 9 until I feel I have a good way of achieving my objective without updating the gamecart firmware.

The firmware 9.0 was released right after I bought some games that required downloads, like Spyro, Resident Evil Trilogy, and some others. I want to redeem the codes for the content I purchased, but I obviously can't do it without updating to the latest firmware. I don't want my cart slot updated since I want to preserve the ability to go back to 4.1.0 at some point. I understand that Atmosphere prevents the gamecart slot from being updated by default, but I've read some ppl posting that if you use ChoiDujourNX to install the firmware, your gamecart slot will get updated. If running ChoiDujourNX within Atmosphere, wouldn't the slot be protected from being updated? I just want to clarify this, since some people post inaccurate info.

Also, I'd like some thoughts on this path forward:
So far, I've run stock firmware, but have booted Atmosphere a couple of times for firmware updates with ChoiDujourNX (updated that way to the 7.x firmware and later to the 8.1.0 firmware I'm on now). I have gone online many times in stock firmware to download game updates and redeem some download codes that came with physical carts. I've never installed any homebrew (besides the ChoiDujourNX) or pirated software and I've not been banned.

- I'm thinking I'll boot Atmosphere to update to 9.1.0 with ChoiDujourNX (or should I just let it download the update from within Atmosphere?).
- After updating the firmware, use Atmosphere to prevent my cart slot from being updated and go online to redeem the codes for games I've purchased and download a bunch of game updates.
- Once I've finished with downloads & updates, go offline and return to 8.1.0 with ChoiDujourNX.
- Not go online again, but when I eventually need more game updates, update the firmware back to the latest first.
- Accept that at some point I might be banned, but hopefully I'll at least have the content I've purchased first.

Is this a bad idea? Is there a better way forward for me to (hopefully) not get banned, but redeem what I've purchased, while preserving the ability to downgrade in the future?

Switch System update 9.1.0 has just been released, as always, do NOT updated until SciresM and others have investigated it.

Sysupdate detected for Switch: https://t.co/S8l98B5ro1

On a Wednesday :(

Looks like TrustZone might have updated -- if it did, I'll stream diffing later tonight. https://t.co/0CfRnFkgY8

Wasnt there a way to disable autoupdate? I need to find it before my son mistakenly updates.

@Xizix Safest way to avoid updating is keeping it in airplane mode, otherwise go to:
'Settings->System->Auto-Update Software' and set that to off.

Edit: Airplane mode or disconnecting any Wi-Fi options is the only way to prevent automatic system updates.
