Yeah! And if your switch is bricked, you just boot into SX OS and restore it! Wait...
Buy a 32GB sdcard (8 usd) format it exfat. Use it for nand backups only. Use hekate. Most easy for backup and restore. And we know you like most easy.
edit: To be actually fair, the SX OS (not an OS, btw - thats just your typical marketing bullsh*t) nand backup should be basically the same. Holding buttons at boot should bring you to a RCM mode piece of software that probably can backup and restore your NAND.
So - you think SX OS is an OS - it isnt.
You think it would be great to restore nand, while the system is running on cfw, using an nro - it wouldnt.
You think SX OS is suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper great for copying basic features from free software - what are you doing in this forum then? Go to a SX OS support community. Deal with people just as top level as you, spending 40 USD for a branding excercise, CFW DRM, and stolen software. You feel much better there. People wont tell you, that they dont like supporting you in the least - every step of the way.
Also, this needed to be said, because this thread turned out to be just another "Wow bob, SX OS is so featureritch and easy" advertorial for the masses, being very enthused buying piracy for 40 bucks. Its basically the "buys pirated copies at car boot sales" crowd by now. Team Executer opened a big world wide car boot sale - you all came. Now you are back to gbatemp to have others tell you what you bought. And to fix it for free. The world is such a wonderful place. TX counting the sweet car boot sale customers money in the meantime, telling their code monkey to go and steel a bit more open source code, while hes at it.
Oh and here gbatemp, have 3k USD TX OS ad money for a contest you are holding. Make sure your forum members support the car boot sale crowd for a little longer. While advertising our product.

Learn the hekate way, if you cant boot into sx os you cant restore it using that method.
So you would have to use hekate to restore.

well if and when i will need to restore and sx will not work for me then i will try and use hekate.
thanks!
It's not true. The "place" where you make nand backups and restores on sxos is, just like hekate, a pre-boot environment so will definitely work in a brick case so no need to deal with hekate for this. And about other op question: yes, when you backup your nand you are also backing up your emunand as the files of it are stored in the nand. My advice is to always use emunand even in banned environments as it will surely protect you from headaches if something bricks your switch.
Hekate is the only way to get a verified backup, so seems dumb not to do that tbh.
God. Don`t you ever give it a rest with your pompous and "cultured" use of language? I admire your eloquence, but you don`t half go on about nothing...
Everyone knows what SXOS is and what it isn`t.
