Hacking Downgrading from 13

[HankLibre]

Sorry for noob question, I'm completely new to switch, and it's a bit of a jungle.
Bought an unpatched switch and managed to boot hekate. Turns out I unknowingly upgraded to the new 13 firmware so atmosphere wont launch.
Is it possible to downgrade or is the whole fuse burning thing final? All help is much apreciated!

You will have to wait for the updates for atmosphere

It's possible to downgrade, but honestly, just wait a few days or so for Atmosphere to be updated to support 13.0.0. Downgrading without access to CFW is more trouble than it's worth in this situation.

OK, guess I'll just have to curb my enthusiasm. Thanks for the repies!

I'm patiently awaiting atmosphere on 13.0.0 before I update my exploitable switch. I've already updated my two other systems: the animal crossing one and the Mario 3d world one. the system isn't hacked, but if I should go to sell it, I want it to be hackable by the person buying it. I plan to buy ni no kuni 2 today from the eshop, but I'll only put it on the other two switches, for now. it's not available to buy yet, (probably won't be for another 4 hours or so), when it's 9:00 a.m. pst.

or is the whole fuse burning thing final?

I don't understand this question? The fuses are there, but irrelevant for every cfw user.

Right. I thought it meant it couldn't be downgraded = no cfw. I'll just sit tight in the boat till atmosphere is green

Unpatched consoles can always downgrade regardless of fuse count or access to CFW.

What's the other way of downgrading without Atmosphere or without CFW in general?

You really don’t want to do this!

As mentioned below Choidujournx is out of date.

Not recommending this path in the slightest. Just showing how complex the process is.

The number of BIG RED WARNINGS in the linked article should scare the crap out of you…it’s REALLY not worth it.

really you almost never need to downgrade, the only scenery I think is for using SXOs which do not have sense now.

but if you want, only use Daybreak, choidujournx hasn't be updated on a while so can cause troubles.

ensure you have the latest Atmosphére and the latest set of sigpatches.

You only should downgrade if you have a CFW working, if you have a patched/unmmoded console you will brick your console.

I mean its dumb but overall me and a friend wanted to see of we could do it and risk about 300. But we came to a conclusion to just buy an old version from people not knowing what they are selling.
