Hacking Can't get SX Pro dongle to work on 2nd Switch

[hydrofied714]

Hey guys. I'm trying to use my SX Pro dongle on a second Nintendo Switch but I can't get it to boot into CFW menu. I put the dongle and jig in and press vol+ and power but nothing happens. I am familiar with the process since I've used the dongle on my first Switch without issues. The dongle is fully charged and is working fine on the firstr Switch. I already purchased a second license code for SX OS. My Switch version is 6.0.

Is the license stored on the dongle so perhaps I have to clear out any traces of it before I can use it on another Switch?

Did you check to see if your second console is patched or not? If you haven't, check the serial number using this thread as well as the definitive tutorial if its patched or not within the same thread.

Sounds ipatched to me, if your brand new second switch came with 6.0 firmware it probably is.

Yup, probably patched, out of luck for now.

Thanks. Yea I did check my Switch's serial before and it came up as in the "maybe" area. I guess it really is patched Anywhere I can old stock of Nintendo Switchs with older firmware? Don't want to buy used. I guess I can get one of those limited edition console bundles like Mario on Amazon that's guaranteed to be older firmware but they are selling at a significant premium.

You can go to a store and check the serial before buying. There is a little window on the bottom of the box that reveals the serial number.
But I think you should pray to find one at these days!
better "switch" to an used switch!...

Look for smaller (physical) stores that are more likely to have old stock, and check the serial number before buying.

If that’s the case then I suggest not updating past 7.0.1, apparently the Deja Vu exploit chain works up to that version (even on Ipatched units)
