Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

[Lacius]

Hi all, I have a Switch with the serial XKJ70009648251 on system firmware 9.1.0.

Yes I'm aware its fully 100% patched accounting to the serial spreadsheet on some other thread but I was wondering if there is chance in the near future of a new exploit discovered on the switch's new motherboard.

If I'm forced to buy a another (used switch) should I aim to get the mini or regular one?

There might be a modchip solution for your Switch released by TX sometime in the future, but it could be months or longer before that happens, and it's probably going to require disassembly of your Switch, as well as specialized hardware you'll have to purchase. It will probably be years, if ever, before there's an actual exploit discovered for your Switch. If you care about hacking, you should get rid of this one and buy an unpatched model. Always check the serial number before making a purchase. The Switch Lite is also currently unhackable.

Ah I see, thank you for the advice, I'll deffo look into getting a another main switch with the right unpatched serial and the lowest firmware version so I dont get into jam again.

I just needed a way to grab the save file from my Pokemon sword to use PKHEX and need to install home brew app Checkpoint.

BTW, Apologies for the triple posting, I was posting my first post before needing to sign in and produced three posts from going back a page three times lol.

Are you using title override instead of applet mode to boot the homebrew launcher?

This did the trick. Thx!

I'm glad this fixed the problem. However, if you are using exFAT, which I suspect you are, it is highly recommended that you switch your SD card to FAT32 anyway. Using exFAT is far more likely to cause corruption issues down the road.

Whats the best homenrew for backup/restore save files?

Checkpoint.

emuMMC is initially a copy of your sysMMC so everything including save data will be carried over. However once the initial setup is done, emuMMC and sysMMC operate independently of one another. So any new save data created in either sysMMC or emuMMC will not be carried over to the other.

Thank you! I'll probably just keep my physical cartridge games separate then, and play those only on sysNAND.

I haven't messed around with EdiZon or Checkpoint too much yet, but I'm guessing I can't transfer saves between the two MMCs without having Checkpoint/EdiZon on both, correct?

Things get a little messy, not to mention inconvenient, when you're moving installed games to your computer and then back to the SD card, but yes, it can be done. It is recommended that you get a bigger SD card instead.

If your Switch is patched and it's on 5.x or higher, it is currently unhackable. TX might come out with a modchip solution, but it could be a long time before it comes out, and it will probably require disassembly of the Switch and special hardware you will need to purchase. if you care about hacking your Switch, you should get rid of this one and buy an unpatched model.

I have two Nintendo Switches - one with OFW and normal, another with CFW. Is it possible to transfer saves using the Switch's data transfer between the EmuMMC on my hacked Switch to a normal Switch?

I just bought a new switch so I can hack my launch switch which is not patched. Should I transfer my users off that switch with all the saves etc to a new switch first or is it safe to do it after load Custom Firmware? I am mainly worried about my pokmon saves. I would like to be able to back up my pokemon save however, but only if I can do it safely without risk of losing all the hours I have put in. I do want to be able to go online with pokemon. Can users be transferred after the process without risk of a ban?

I mean you can but you can also use homebrew to backup your save data.

It could be months or years, if ever, before it works with 7.x. In the meantime, you will be unable to update your Switch or connect it to the internet. Waiting around for it is not recommended.

So I hacked my switch using nh-server.github[dot]io so I have an emunand now. But the guide says to not connect to the internet with the hacked Emunand, but it also asks to be updated, what am I supposed to do? Can I connect to the internet without getting banned? Thanks!

You can update offline with ChoiDujourNX.
