Yes, you should definitely do a nand backup. I don't know how good the SX OS nand backup tool is. I'd either wait for someone to confirm it's fine or just use Hekate to be safe.

 

Ok cool, I’m dumping it right now, I seem to remember everyone recommending Hekate over it but I’m not sure why.

Any issue with me just being in the offices 2.1 release and not the beta 2.5?

 

sounds right. I have used SXOS to backup and RESTORE my NAND several times. It works fine. Everyone around here is butt hurt at Team Xcuter for stealing code so they always recommend other avenues. It's ridiculous that some pirates pirated some code that was meant to pirate Nintendo's code and then the pirates got all hurt about it. Any question regarding SXOS or Team Xcuter WILL get trolled to shit around here. Beware. The same 10 or so IDIOT TROLLS every time. Same with Gateway. Don't listen to the idjits. SXOS handles everything it's designed to do at this point.

 

SXOS nand backup is easy breezy & very simple to use. Just follow the directions as prompts. But do make sure your switch is charged fully because the nand backup will take over an hour to complete. And your microSD has minimun of +25GB free space.

Update with ChoiDujourNX

Only other option is to use FAT32 and split the files.

 

SX OS is not Switch OS. Read about what ChoiDujourNX does.

The album icon loads CFW.

 

If you update your emunand officially through Nintendo prompt you could be banned,don't do it. Use choidujourNx to update only emunand to latest fmw, with this app you can update both fmw and exfat. Search YouTube for tutorial, it's very easy. You can see you are booted in emunand by Sx os startup menù, there is "emunand enabled" written on top, you can't miss it I suggest to erase your emu and use 2.5 os to create SD based emunand. It's safer than previous one. Let me know your progress bye!

 

You could check in your router settings if there's an option to block the switch mac adress. That way they wouldn't be able to connect. AFAIK you can't block the switch or sxos settings from being accessed

 

Hekate does a verification of the dump to check whether everything is fine, SX does not. I do the NAND dumps with SX anyway. Once a month or so, or after every major FW update

 

Xci files don't install. Part of the benefit. The switch thinks it a cartridge. To play a different one, select it in album.
