[QUOTE="Blythe93, post: 10418614, member: 614575"] Those same people are probably using their CFW on sysMMC and since updating OFW means updating sysMMC as well, CFW might break unless an update is not necessary. As far as I know, If you're running CFW on your emuMMC you shouldn't worry as long as you can send your Hekate and Atmosphere payloads. Since you're probably new to the Switch hacking scene, I'd suggest that you go through these two guides: [URL='https://nh-server.github.io/switch-guide/']NH Switch guide[/URL] and [URL='https://rentry.org/SwitchHackingIsEasy']Rentry.org Switch guide[/URL]. Getting familiar with the terms used will make using and updating your Switch a much easier task for you. Even if you've bought a pre-hacked system, it's advisable to learn how to keep it up-to-date. If needed, you can check your OFW by restarting your Switch and getting into maintenance mode. Here's how: [LIST=1] [*]Make sure that your Internet connection is disabled if you're connected right now and remove any saved connections as well. You want to make sure that your console doesn't automatically connect to the Internet. [*]Turn off your console (when in home menu, hold the power button for a few seconds and select power off). [*]Hold [B]volume +[/B] and [B]volume -[/B] at the same time and, while holding them, press the power button. After a while your Switch will enter into the maintenance mode. At this point any pending updates and cache is cleared on your sysMMC, you don't need to press and/or select anything. [*]Press the power button once again. It'll shut down the console. [*]Turn on your console afterwards and, if everything went well, you'll be able to see your firmware version. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
