Hacking Sx os activation error

[kdc1203]

Hello.

I'm trying to activate the sx os today.
However I'm getting error when submit the dat file.
Currently server is down or blocked?

Anyone having issue with sx os activation after 10/4?

I wonder If I already have a activated license for my switch and I upgrade to the core, if I could just still use my already activated license?

Due to ongoing issues, they have taken the activation server offline. Who knows if and when it will ever come back online.

"issues"

team xecuter had it's leadership thrown into a jail cell, so i think the servers are gone for good, now was a very bad time to buy something like this

1 of 3 - the other 2 are facing extradition. But yes, a bad time to buy any Xecuter related switch product at the moment.

Looks like you wasted your money as TX is done for.

DAMN! My SX Core just hit American shores yesterday!
I hope I can use my already activated license.

Unfortunately not. The licences are tied to the console fingerprint.

Even though it is the same console?

No it is tied to console, that why you can't use with another console.

The same console.

Pretty sure you can't use SX Pro license with SX Core/SX Lite, not 100% sure, with the activation server down so that is that. Worse case you can take apart the SX Pro and solder that instead.

Then you 'may' be OK. I'd try to just generate the licence-request.dat then remove it, and put your licence back on and see what happens

Edit: I *think* I rember seeing something about existing licences not working though.

If you already have SXOS installed and have a licence, why go down the route of a hard mod?

When I purchased the Core a month ago I was hoping for the simplicity of cold booting the console.

Might have to do the old SX Pro Hard Mod or a trinket m0 install instead

I don't have a SX Dongle but I do have a brand new trincket though.
But I refuse to lose my HDD and XCI's

 

[Jabberwockie]

As above, if you have a v1, you'd be better doing a m0 trinket or install the dongle internally. If was me, I would go for the trinket so if SXOS is no longer updated, to save faffing around, be easier to flash the payload for Atmosphere.

You can still use the SX OS even with a trinket but you need to have an unpatched unit, if it patched/mariko then you can't use the SAMD21 method. I know it is a bummer I have three unit that have SX OS license, suck that TX are dead now.

Looks like its a user problem

I just tried myself and it worked instantly.

With that said, it would be nice if people in this thread didn't spread misinformation.
