is there a tutorial that shows how to upgrade OFW without buying fuses ? unpatched Switch w/ separate emu atmosphere

You can download or dump firmware files and use Daybreak to update.

The Atmosphere changelog says that the update logic is the same as the official one, so if the firmware files are official, it won't.

Wrong if he use Daybreak to update the NAND the NAND is dirty, as it use homebrew, using Nintendo official updater will burn the fuse.

As far as I know, fuses are burned when booting without RCM.
If that's true, you should be able to update using the official Nintendo way and stop the boot during restart. You'll have to keep booting using RCM.

so is there a way to do this? I'm told if you leave in rcm when updating officially it turns it off

do fuses burn only when doing a update or even after if I boot into OFW without rcm on after updating

Quoting myself: "fuses are burned when booting without RCM".

More info here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/question-about-burning-fuses.511111/

From what I read, it's actually hard to be able to stop the booting.
If you want to go that route, read a lot a first confirm that the update does not burn the fuses, but the booting process.

this is how the exploit works on the xbox 360. it relies on the hypervisor from 4xxx, which is very old. even if you're on the latest firmware, you're still using that hypervisor version. the efuses were burned to prevent using it up to 7371, but I think the rgh hack uses a separate method to run that hypervisor by taking over the boot sequence.

Hello, I have the following issue:
1. I downloaded Star Wars Racer from the ehop.
2. (I was banned from Nintendo Online services). I had troubles with Homebrew and ended up deleting that game.
3. I fixed my Homebrew problems and downloaded the game from the Internet.
4. "An Update is required". I cannot open the game.
5. (Going into recovery mode and out again, does not fix this.) Please Help!

Hi all, I want to update Emunand to latest firmware on SX Lite with SX OS 3.0.5 beta. I can't enable AutoRCM because it says is ipatched. Can I proceed without AutoRCM enabled or it's too risky?

You shouldn't enable AutoRCM. It is risky to enable it on Switch Lite! It might brick your console. AutoRCM is for unpatched Switches.

I can't enable it because it says it's ipatched. That's why I'm asking if I can proceed with the update or not, check the screenshot.

AutoRCM should be disabled, so there isn't a problem there.

Well, I proceeded with the update and it took less then 1 minute. Rebooted and I'm on Emunand 10.2.0. Phew.

I've been successfully installing and playing recent NSPs like the new Ori and Mario 3d all stars.
However, when trying to install Nexomon NSP, it gives me an error informing that firmware is too low or sigpatches are missing. (using Quark with goldleaf)

I'm using the 10.1 fw.

Is there a known problem for this NSP? It is not a new game so this fw should not be a problem.

 

[TidusWulf]

Is your CFW fully up to date?

I'm on 10.1fw, 14.2atmos. So technically I'm a little out of date to latest, but it's not an incompatible pair.

Have you tried loading EdiZon via title override?

Thanks for you answer! Is there a guide on how to do that?

 

[Draxzelex]

What I'm asking is:
How do I compile the exefs.nsp thing?
What do the romfs and flags folders do and how do I use them?
Sometimes JSON files are used, but what are they used for?

You don't compile exefs.nsp for mods if that's what you're asking. Games are generally split up into romfs and exefs where romsf (short for Read Only Memory File System) contains the files for the game where the exefs (which stands for Executable File System) has instructions on how to load the game. Swapping in romfs files will change those respective files in games. You should also note modding is game-specific so each game will use mods differently.

do fuses burn only when doing a update or even after if I boot into OFW without rcm on after updating

Fuses are burnt when you use the stock bootloader, or normally turn on the console, when running a firmware higher than the current fuse count.

Don't use goldleaf as it is arguably the worst title installer. Use Awoo Installer instead.

The issue is not about compatibility but problems on lower CFW versions generally get ironed on higher ones.

You hold R over any title to bring up the homebrew menu. Next time, don't put your answer in the quoted text as it makes it harder to respond to you.

Awoo Installer[/URL] instead.

Tried with Awoo, no luck either

Gotcha, it worked! Problem is now what I can't run the game while running EdiZon and do a RAM scan. Is there a trick or something? Can't figure it out...
Hope I did it correctly with the quote now.
