I'd just like to take this moment to remind people we are at a staggering 11 homebrew-only bans (meaning no usage of .XCI, .NSP, LayeredFS, or CDN downloading). These people are donated with the (Homebrew) next to their usernames.

Ban just for homebrew... Nintendo is really f*king us! I did homebrew on my New Switch (RetroArch) and SX OS with just XCI... so far so good.

A clean hack-free NAND refers to making a NAND backup in Hekate before running any CFW or homebrew. This is considered clean because Hekate is loaded in RCM which is executed before the NAND meaning it is theoretically undetectable by the console and subsequently Nintendo. I'd also prefer if you want to fill out a form that you check the OP instead of quoting a random user who already filled it out. There is also an explanation under "Breakdown of the Spreadsheet" which you can also find in the OP.

I do need guinea pigs people to use EmuNAND so I know whether it is safe or not. Personally, I would not use it since its installed into the system so its detectable if not now sometime in the future but if other people are willing to use it, please let me know and I will update it on the spreadsheet.

just thought I would update again, still not banned whatsoever (I tried to remove all traces of homebrew back in may or june I believe). Either nintendo forgot about me or their banning is the most inconsistent process I have ever witnessed.

I'm pretty sure I had EmuNAND installed and I just got banned as of today.

Edit: I was wrong, I've only used AutoRCM and got an eShop and update ban after the 6.0.1 update.

Yes, every Switch game I had was Legit. I don't have any Pirated games on my Switch. I just got board and took out my Homebrew SD Card and swapped in the Regular Nintendo Switch SD Card and decided to play it but, I wanted to check for updates and I got the error.
Although when I was playing Gouls N' Ghosts on Retroarch the Switch Crashed and told me to press the power button to shut off. When I shut it off I inserted the Regular Switch card in and booted it up fine.
Did you disable the send data to Nintendo in the system settings? If not, then that crash was what got you banned, since Nintendo received the crash report when you went online.

That setting doesn't do anything with regards to Nintendo. If you read it, it refers to sending error data to third-parties not Nintendo. Nintendo reserves the right to receive error data when you buy their console; this cannot be disabled without a custom DNS server.
