Step 2. Delete the update folder on your NAND as extra protection against updates.For each of your connections (and all future connections), do the following
- Select the connection
- Select “Change Settings”
- Move to the second list and choose “DNS”
- Set the DNS to “Don’t Auto-Obtain”
- Set the DNS server IPs to the following servers
- 168.235.092.108
- 081.004.127.020
- Select “Confirm”, then press (B) to save
- These servers will block your SysNAND from being updated
Online play still works on 5.5.1, and you can always use the eShop by running NNU Patcher first.0005001010041100 v560

Your browser will be forcibly updated to the 5.5.2 version if you do not block updates, even if everything else is 5.5.2. Using the recommended DNS settings and deleting the update folder from your NAND are highly recommended.does anyone know if the system still nags you about updating if you update everything but the browser? like if the system finds an out-of-date system title (the browser)?
If it's possible, I don't know how.btw, sorry for the double-post, but it's the tmd file that specifies the version, correct? can that be spoofed?
If i delete the update folder and wish to update later can this still be done?Haxchi still works on 5.5.2, but updating to 5.5.2 is not recommended. If you update to 5.5.2 and something goes wrong with Haxchi, you will have no other way to load homebrew. I recommend doing the following:
Step 1. Block updates by adding these DNS settings:
Step 2. Delete the update folder on your NAND as extra protection against updates.
There's no added functionality that 5.5.2 brings, so there's no reason to update. If you want to update from 5.5.1 to 5.5.2 anyway without updating the browser, preserving that as a primary exploit, you can follow this guide to install the following three files:

The last part is key. Unreliable. That's all. HaxChi is 100%Sorry if i'm not fully up-to-date with my information but what is there to worry when having a 5.5.2 console with DNS block/removed update folder + having access to a browser exploit (albeit an unreliable one)?
Now that there's a browser exploit for 5.5.2 (even if it's unreliable), there's no reason not to update to 5.5.2 if you have Haxchi. There's also no reason to update either.Sorry if i'm not fully up-to-date with my information but what is there to worry when having a 5.5.2 console with DNS block/removed update folder + having access to a browser exploit (albeit an unreliable one)?
True that. So basically Haxchi is doable, even when on 5.5.2. I only wonder what i'll be missing (full NAND backup?), since most homebrew is meant/build for 5.5.1.The last part is key. Unreliable. That's all. HaxChi is 100%
But down the road why not just get HaxChi so you're not stick on 5.5.2 if they update
Well, the console in question already has 5.5.2 on it, which is why i wanted to know what options i had.Now that there's a browser exploit for 5.5.2 (even if it's unreliable), there's no reason not to update to 5.5.2 if you have Haxchi. There's also no reason to update either.
If you don't have Haxchi, updating to 5.5.2 is not recommended.
5.5.2 has very few changes compared to 5.5.1. Aside from the reliability of the browser exploit, they're functionally identical.True that. So basically Haxchi is doable, even when on 5.5.2. I only wonder what i'll be missing (full NAND backup?), since most homebrew is meant/build for 5.5.1.

very safe, i just updatedJust wanted to be safe before i do.
Thanks
