Switch 7.0 Downgrade to 6.2 tutorial
Update: Since Atmosphere has released with 7.0.X support, To downgrade without a backup, just use ChoidujourNX.
For those with backups you can still follow the method below
After seeing reports of downgrading back to 6.2 been broken after updating to switch firmware version 7.0, I can confirm these to be false. I successfully downgraded my switch with 9 burnt fuses on 7.0 to 6.2 with 9 burnt fuses
Downgrading to 6.2 is possible and not broken. Both boot0/boot1 must be the same version as nand backup
EDIT: This is for FG consoles not ipatched
EDIT 2: You will loose any saves you don't have backed up
Will upload proof if people desperately wish

- Step 1) Place 6.2 nand + boot0/1 backup on sd card
- Step 2) Boot into RCM and launch hekate
- Step 3) Restore boot 0/1
- Step 4) Restore GPP Partitions (or rawnand, I personally used GPP Partitions)
- Step 5) Launch CFW using Hekate 4.6 or ReiNX 2.0 or sxos (haven't tested with fusee-primary)
- Step 6) ????
- Step 7) Profit
