Definitely Patched! Did you not read the first page of this thread?
I was posting that fusee gelee works on my XAW40015 switch DESPITE being listed as “definitely patched.”

The original post says you can provide your switch’s information if you “want to help.”

“Q: I want to help, what can I do?
A: If you have all informations about your Switch, fill out the form below and post it here.”

Did you buy it brand new yourself? Are you sure this is the real serial number? Maybe the motherboard was switched and doesn't match the casing? Check in HOS to see if it's the real SN.

Yep, I purchased the Switch new on Amazon in roughly 2018/2019.
Booting into SysNAND gives me the same serial number written on the console, which is XAW40015######.

AFAIK, the internals haven't been replaced, and I've never taken in the console for repairs, so the motherboard is the same one that was there when I first bought it.

Well, great for you, then! So I guess the first post needs updating. But in reality, this thread is way less useful than it was several years ago. Nowadays, anybody who buys a new Switch and wants to hack it needs a modchip. Now, this thread is just a reference for people who own older hardware and wonder if it's patched. Thanks for the contribution.

Turn on your console and go to System Settings > System > Serial Numbers, and you should be able to see your console's serial number.

Look at first post
Serials beginning with XAW7:
Serials between XAW70000000000 - XAW70017500000 are safe to buy
Serials between XAW70017500000 - XAW70030000000 are possibly patched
Serials above XAW70030000000 are definitely patched
Your Switch is possibly patched.

You need to test by go to RCM and inject the payload, so if payload fails, it means your Switch is patched.
