Homebrew This might sound like a stupid question but can I get my switch unbanned?

it's probably theoretically possible, but I'm sure you'd need another switch to do it, just to get the certificate or whatever from it. don't know if the means for this exists as I don't pay attention to switch stuff.

I got my switch banned a year ago and I’m wondering if I can unban it.. can I?
Simple awnser no.

If you can get a donor switch you can using Exosphere and the nand from the donor switch. However its not easy... and it results in both switches being banned.

If you can get the nand biskeys and prodinfo from a switch which is broken You may have a chance (because the same switch can't exsist twice), also I don't think you can use nintendo's updater, they'll spot its not the right switch and ban both. Meaning you need to use daybreak to get the latest FW which means keeping a dirty sysnand (which is risky). It's also far harder than simply using cfw... and there's a chance you'll brick it.

Anything is possible once you figure it out.... but that doesn't mean we ever will ;)

YES, it is possible and this service has been offered in Brazil for quite some time.

An emunand is installed on your switch. But this emunand has a different prodinfo, I guess it is taken from broken consoles (the guy runs a repair shop).

So after that, you should only play original games on the emunand.

Pirated games and homebrew in general should be installed on the already banned sysnand.

  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I've seen 50" oleds floating around for $800 but for a main TV oled still doesn't sound that good cause burn ins
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    led have much more heat i suppose if they can cause burn in, or is the fragile parts used to make them on purpose
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Isn't lcd different from led
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Or oled more burn in prone to qled
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    the newer led variation are just much smaller
  • Veho @ Veho:
    LCD is different from LED and OLED.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    LCD/TFT don't emit light on their own, they just filter color they have to have a backlight. LED/OLED panels emit light.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Backlight can be one giant light panel with a diffusor, but recently there's mini/micro LED backlighting, where you can control the light level for smaller areas of the screen, to get better contrast and color range.
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    yeah, lots of lcd panel tech usually have the dead backlight issue making owners think it's completely dead
  • Veho @ Veho:
    And those backlights can get burn-in themselves.
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    i fixed my previous tv twice already, 1st time was power supply defect and 2nd was dead backlight, just ordered some parts after butchering it open
