which member?From what one of the team members of the reswitch Discord said it's a USB debug mode
Hegberg normmatt and stuckpixlewhich member?
Yeah, Im thinking a gaming company maker specially nowadays, I don't think they would put a combination of button presses to make it debug .I am almost 100% sure it is not a USB debug mode, as that would make it way too easy for hackers to read/write files from NAND and load exploits.
Nintendo isn't that dumb.
EDIT: It likely just forces the Switch to install a firmware update from an inserted cartridge.
Its in the videoWhat's the combo? That seems really interesting to test
It's not impossible that it's a debug mode. I mean the communication protocol could certainly be protected by some form of encryption. And if that's indeed what this is I'm sure it's not unprotected.
It's the safe mode, you can check the documentation here: http://switchbrew.org/index.php?title=Boot
The Switch has an anti-downgrade check and you can't upload unsigned FW anyway.
Can't hear you in the video (and i have a bad English).Its in the video
I feel like this is more of wishful thinking because Nintendo wouldn't leave a massive vulnerability in a menu like that and only Nintendo has the keys to do everything with the switch unless it's somehow hackers figure it's out but until then I feel like this menus probably not going to be used but but if Nintendo patches this menu out in a firmware update then maybe there is something there because the menu itself works on 4.01but on earlier versions it doesn't workGreat. we have safe mode... but I'm wondering something.... I remember when we got the kernel, and when pegaswitch actually worked on 3.0.0 people were talking about downgrading and how eFuses were able to be bypassed if you had the root keys and I think trustzone... could those be implied here to create a possible exploit, or is this just wishful thinking?

Can you give the combo in text please ?
- power completely off
- hold the volume down button
- while still holding volume down, hold power
- let go of volume down, but not power
- while still holding power, hold volume up
- let go of power, but not volume up
- when the Nintendo logo appears, let go of volume up
Boot doesn't necessarily mean that it's this combo. From what I read is that it runs at boot and checks and changes a few things before startup. This is a potential exploit and needs just a bit more research. Let's have our fingers crossed.It's the safe mode, you can check the documentation here: http://switchbrew.org/index.php?title=Boot
