That's strange! I always thought Nintendo could patch a refurbed unit before reselling it. Maybe I was wrong. Good for you, anyway, if you got lucky.

Did you tried this? https://gbatemp.net/threads/a-defin...atched-or-not-purchases-after-07-2018.512018/

@CitizenSal: Simple! Simply make sure to use the latest beta version of the SX OS ! 2h of black screen and several attempts for me before I realized. I usually never use beta versions but here only the beta version works if you updated your console to the 6.2 firmware. And ever time you have a black screen, simply press the power button for 15 sec and then restart normally the console by pressing the power button once. Hope that will help.

Hi Guys,

Could you please add this to he Excel Sheet?

Serial:XAJ700412XXXXX
Serial on device matches serial on box: Yes
Region: EUR
Firmware:6.2.0
Color option: Grey
Store: second hand (bought in the UK by the previous owner)
Was a bundle (if yes, which): No
Purchase date: 25th of Dec 2018
Fusée Gelée works:Yes!

Could you please also update the inital post on page 1 which says "From XAJ70040XXXXXX and below = safe, for XAJ70041XXXXXX and over : possibly patched" and confirm that up to the XAJ700412XXXXX at least are safe?

I've bought my console being really carefull about the serial N°, checking many many second hand offers. Then suddenly a good deal came and by mistake I've look at another line "XAJ4004600X and below are safe to buy" instead of the related XAJ700 one lol (I think I was too tired looking for a Switch with a good serial N° at a good price), ending with a XAJ700412XXXXX serial! When I've realized my mistake, my SX Pro was already ordered and it's been the 3 longest days of my life checking all the forums about the possibility of getting SX Pro to work on my Switch!

I would like to avoid this to happen to anyone else with a serial between XAJ70040XXXXX and XAJ700413XXXXX.

Thanks Guys!

I have a Switch that is 7041 as well, does that mean I'm safe too?

XAJ700412XX vs 7041
Also, the only way true way to find out is to boot into RCM and inject the payload.

 

[lordelan]

In our shopping centre (Germany) is a store which has a Switch with XAJ4005...335
Any Information on that one?

 

[ShinkaN700]

My Switch is XAJ100277xxxxx
Is it hackable?

 

[Tylink]

XAW1011049XXXX ... Is this patched? Thanks

 

[3DS4FUN]

So I went hunting for an unpatched switch on ebay and bought one, I also ended up finding an extra listing that was confirmed - if someone else is looking check this auction

https://www.ebay.com/itm/183567089842?ul_noapp=true I have checked with the seller and the first 8 characters are XAW10068. If you end up buying it just say thanks

XAW1011049XXXX ... Is this patched? Thanks
