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

• 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

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

So I had to revisit this subject, and now after restoring my previous fw, when trying to run cfw it just freezes at the initialization screen...I can't even use nujour to update the fw...any idea what is causing the error? Thanks

Can I go online 7.0.1 if I update via ChoiDujuourNX?

You've used cfw, you can go online but you risk getting banned

I just upgraded to 7.0.1 after doing a system restore. Looks like i aint banned nor downgrading anytime soon.
