Hi,

I want to sell my switch and currently it's on 13.2.0 with atmosphere installed. So I guess I should restore the original state at first. Now when I did research about restoring it I realized I didn't install the cfw on an emunand but on sysnand in the first place. At this point I somewhere failed reading all the instructions carefully (because I untruly thought I did prepare emunand).

Nevermind, before I did anything I created a backup using hekate. It was on firmware version 8.0.0 back then and I updated step by step like 3 or 4 times first using choidujournx and later using daybreak, therefore the fuses burnt don't match the actual firmware. Now checking under hekate it says "burnt fuses (ODM 7/6): 9 - 0 (HOS: 7.0.0 - 8.0.1)".

(How) should I now proceed to restore the original firmware? And is there a risk or should I instead just switch over to an emunand and keep it and sell it like it is? I don't want to betray someone and sell shit, so I want to deliver it in a solid and safe state, so it doesn't brick because of my failure.

Thanks a lot!

Just restore it via Hekate.
