Incognito_RCM

since Incognito by blawar doesn't work on vanilla atmosphere, I made a payload to use with hekate (or any other payload injector) with the same functionality.
Incognito_RCM wipes personal information from your Nintendo Switch by removing it from prodinfo.

Functionality:​

• wipe personal information on sysnand/emunand
• backup prodinfo from sysnand/emunand
• restore prodinfo to sysnand/emunand

Since NAND memory is encrypted, this is based on shchmue's Lockpick_RCM to first get the neccessary encryption keys.
You can apply Incognito_RCM directly after installing atmosphere or any time after and it has the advantage that you don't need to set 90DNS after an internet connection and possibly communication with nintendo servers is already established. (You can apply 90DNS anyway)

This has only been tested by me on firmware 8.1.0, so please test it and report back.
Since it has only been tested by me, keep a hekate nand backup ready to be safe.

Disclaimer:
This is early stage and there is no guarantee that everything works as expected! Please have a hekate NAND backup ready!​

I tried using incognito and my serial number is now XAW00000000000

Does that mean it worked?

Thanks.

yep that means its worked.

Can I give a suggestion for people who use this.
If you use SXOS, do use this software.

People with Atmosphere it's better you configure exosphere.ini to hide your serial. It's much safer incase of corrupt sd-card.

Anyone who used this app, BACKUP YOUR FILE it created with your proper prodinfo.

 

[Exile20]

yep that means its worked.

Thanks for the response.

 

[burhansalih]

Yep....Exosphere is the way to go for AMS although it does say it may not be reliable but i have used it no problems for the last year or so.

Meh you can use 90DNS or any blocker for Nintendo servers if you wanna be paranoid

 

[burhansalih]

yeah your right although i am not too keen on 90s DNS. Exosphere works well.

Aye same here! My switch SHOULD already be banned. Everyone probably have that Prodinfo by now xD
It was used in a research project a while back.

OR - if you have a raspberry pi - just install pihole and you can block all these servers(and more) and no need to mess about with your switch at all :-).

Just add the following to your blacklist:

nintendo.net   
nintendo.jp   
nintendo.co.jp   
nintendo.co.uk

Now that's just to extreme (I like it)

 

[Danook28]

I have big broblume is 12.0.2 cfw cant use incognito rcm all time error.. Cant hide sirial number????

 

[Draxzelex]

I have big broblume is 12.0.2 cfw cant use incognito rcm all time error.. Cant hide sirial number????

Just use 90DNS, dns.mitm, or exosphere instead.

 

[pcwizard7]

I ve switch to this method since incod doesn't work on makio plus its safer in many ways

With your permission, I could add Incognito_RCM to the bundled payload system of JTegraNX.

 

[lufeig]

could anyone confirm if this is working on switch aula (oled)?

I can't get it to work on mine, I only get black screen after launching incognito_rcm payload from hekate.

Obviously it doesn't work on Aula, you cant use RCM method on Aura.

 

[lufeig]

Obviously it doesn't work on Aula, you cant use RCM method on Aura.

launching lockpick_rcm payload from hekate does work on aula

 

[HenryMin]

launching lockpick_rcm payload from hekate does work on aula

It should be updated with latest lockpick code, but using incognito payload (especially on mariko) is really bad idea.

 

[Adran_Marit]

Obviously it doesn't work on Aula, you cant use RCM method on Aura.

Nope, use atmopsheres inbuilt incognito.
