I got asked this question and didn't know what to say. I guess it's safe to take a backup of your original nand and Nintendo can't notice but I want to be sure.
Well Yeah, I meant if there's been a case where it happenedNobody knows
We don't work for Nintendo. So we don't know what they can detect or not

Haha if you're not going to help please don't reply. As I said, it was a question someone made me, I don't really care.Listen if you're so worried about getting banned
Just avoid everything homebrew and RCM
There isn't as nobody knows for sure exactly what Nintendo can see, I don't know whether we ever will either, however over time we will make a note of what works and what doesn't and can give a more informed answer, however as of this moment in time we can't.is there an exact answer for that?
Truth of the matter is, we just don't know for sure, rcm shouldn't log it but the console might log its been in rcm which could get you banned. Nobody knows for surethank you guys but conflicting answers made me a liitle paranoid.
again, it cannot.. it doesnt have anywhere to log it.. rcm does not and cannot wrote to anything, which should be obvious as it is the cpu itself recovery mode. you can even start it with nand physically removed... and obviously, hekate itself doesnt wrote specific files to the nand, not only because not mounted as long as os isnt started, but also because devs wouldnt do it obviously..Truth of the matter is, we just don't know for sure, rcm shouldn't log it but the console might log its been in rcm which could get you banned.

Source, I'm wondering how you know this definitively. Like I said, it's unlikely but it's not impossible.again, it cannot.. it doesnt have anywhere to log it.. rcm does not and cannot wrote to anything, which should be obvious as it is the cpu itself recovery mode. you can even start it with nand physically removed... and obviously, hekate itself doesnt wrote specific files to the nand, not only because not mounted as long as os isnt started, but also because devs wouldnt do it obviously..
once sagain, might be different if you boot from hekate, even stock (although probably not), but if you poweroff after you booted from hekate wothot launch switch os, then impossible to be banned.
also if it was, you could also be ban for linux..
for source of what are you asking for exactly? if you don't believe rcm is the cpu "recovery mode", you can read around for a bit on this forum, or from the developpers themself, or even from the tegra documentation, which is on nvidia websiteSource, I'm wondering how you know this definitively.

OK, all I said is its not impossible. But I'm done with this discussion cause we seem to be going round in circles and that's not very productive for anyonefor source of what are you asking for exactly? if you don't believe rcm is the cpu "recovery mode", you can read around for a bit on this forum, or from the developpers themself, or even from the tegra documentation, which is on nvidia website
for the "cannot write to anything", simply because there is nowhere to write to. ram and cpu cache? clean after poweroff. nand? nowhere to write to. boot partitions and such must be signed, and write to would break. safe system and user partitions are not mounted, so cannot write any file to. the last remaining bits of nand, which are most likely not use by nintendo except fpr the service and not by horizon os, do not contain a "number of rcm boot"..
is bother to find link because on phone, but can search on switchbrew for boot sequnce and flash flashsystem.
then for them to find out you used rcm, must be some physical separate hidden flash storage on motherboard made specially for counting number of rcm reboot. but i think we can all agree that would be conpiricy theory and wouldve found about it by now, especially since have dumped bootrom
and what is source for your claim of it being not impossible? i provided you with evidence for why i am positive is impossible to detect. now do the same and explain why you think it is possible.. else it is based on absolutely nothing and isnt good advice at all..OK, all I said is its not impossible.
