Hacking Discussion [PSA] SX OS Banwave is here!!!

[RareKirby]

From reading the past days a lot of threads here and other websites, it seems most bans come from layeredFS, updating games on OFW or SXFW dowsn't seem to change anything about a ban.

so how else do i update

I'm just speculating...people are getting banned doing almost nothing suspicious and not getting banned doing everything suspicious but from reading a lot most bans are saying they used layeredFS

The best way is to report this post, so the moderator can get to it, and sticky this post/information survey everywhere. But I'm not doing it, because it's best for others to decide if this is the better solution.

Well some also claim never used LayeredFS...

If you are updating non existent games, I guess that's also more than enough reason to get banned, having custom code running I guess makes it another reason because to be protected then they would have to start doing black hacking at try to bypass all security features and send clear, normal data to nintendo, but then again by doing that is also another reason for a ban and this never ends

I guess the only thing kinda safe is atmosphere OFFLINE, then you remove the card and use the Switch completely clean on OFW to go online, buy games and shitz... and no one still knows if theres anyway for nintendo to detect RCM or everything is detected, though thinking about it like everyone say it probably won't be detectable as almost nothing is loaded on RCM (but we never know...).

ps: Also if someone start posting on the warez online certified backups, they will too give bans because how could the same game be online twice or more? yeah... and Nintendo also ban games, so if you would dump everything and post online, even your gamecard would be banned from online .

You have to look for a leaked version of devmenu somewhere on the Internet (cannot link it here on GBATemp, even in PM) and then you have to find the update of the game you are looking for. However, there is no readily available database of game updates.

 

[s3phir0th115]

I think we should have additional questions on the form, specifically which version(s) of SX OS was used, and if legitimate dumps were used or not.

Reason being, SX OS 1.0 did not emulate the certificates, and if SX OS 1.1 is used without legitimate dumps, and there is phoning home about what games you launched and information about them when offline that is sent when it goes back online, that might be part of the reason for bans.

few days ago, i played 10 minutes Yooka-Laylee with Fornite Donor, on airplane mode. after that i cleared saves from menu, cleared logs on RCM payload, rebooted with a clean sd card and today i was banned.

 

[guily6669]

I wonder if you had reset the whole console if it would still lead to a ban or if it would clean everything deeply .

I will not try, otherwise I could not play any of my games anymore, and I think it can not be that simple

 

[guily6669]

Now its pointless... I was saying before going online, not after a ban lool...

Nothing is impossible if you believe in yourself

 

[arthur_bleme]

I strongly believe in myself, I try to make my switch jealous while playing online on steam, but she does not care, I'm still banned

 

[Misledz]

What if, the bans are caused because the ticket doesnt match the ones from legitly purchased games, and emulating them through layeredFS or so does some check mismatch. While you can hide this, the profiles are used for your save management show the recently played games and this constantly syncs with nintendo servers to show what your recent activity is, if its something as simple as not a legit ticket on a game that appears in your list of played games, that's how you get flagged. Every time you put a game in or launch it, the first thing it checks is if any updates are there for it. Could be one cause.

So are the accounts banned along with the console, or is it just the console that is banned?

Depends on the ban. Nintendo can ban one or the other or even both.

Ninty did state the account is linked to your console, therefore banning it will ban the console too. This includes all purchases made on all systems across linked with your nintendo account. So you don't just lose your purchases on Switch but all consoles linked.

 

[TheLastOfUs]

@TheLastOfUs when you went online, did you do it in SX mode or OFW mode?

I never went online

 

[Draxzelex]

To find out that you were banned, you have to go online. Did you check in OFW or CFW?
