[Rabbid4240]

Sending in my cfw switch for repairs since my data's been fucking up. of course i could just restart the console and it will be gone but will they know?

Do you have a clean nand backup that you could restore? Im guessing they could tell tbh. They probably would just refuse to replace it or fix it and send it back.

well i took out all homebrew/cfw-related files out of my sd card if that helps

If you're really that worried, you could just have it serviced by someone other than Nintendo. If they have full access to the console (which they should), then they will know everything you did to it. What they do with that information is left to our imaginations.

nintendo most cases cant get console repaired and send you a replace console,u just need cross finder and dont get a patched version console.good luck baby you will need it.

 

[EmanueleBGN]

You can make a NAND backup and reset it before you send it

 

[andyhappypants]

If you memory card is removed by Nintendo chances are you won’t get it back. They are usually specific with what you return and accessories such as memory cards are usually one of them.

Nope, Patched consoles have been turning up in Europe too, chances are you will receive an unhackable switch back from Nintendo

So I'm sending it in. Will it come out as a patched model?

They still hit retail stores later (i think), some ppl bought their system a couple days ago and get hackable version
