Transferring SX OS License to another console

Great work sthetix.

 

Yeah. I'd never advise following a video guide. It gets outdated very quickly and can lead to many problems. The only video I followed of his was to update your switch with ChoirDujourNX (and I've had no problems with it).

 

You forgot USB hdd support sx will never be useless also easier to use as well

 

I'm doubtful this would work since the target Switch needs the NAND to verify it belongs to that unit and SXOS needs the NAND (and maybe other unit-specific info?) to verify to the donor Switch. It sounds like a good way to get the NAND bricked.

 

I find USB HDD useless now because Tinfoil can easily download games from NUT via FTP, Google drive folder or USB

 

has this been confirmed? my sxos switch died and i got a replacement 4.1 out of the box but no license for sxos. i had it maybe 2 weeks and switch died. don't want to pay 30.00 for the new license. maybe if i had it for a few months and it died i wouldn't be so salty but this is crap. i could also understand if i sold the switch or gave it away but its literally a paper weight lol

 

Every Switch needs their own sxos license. Yes it sucks, but its probably how they prevent ppl from sharing their product features.

 

Well what do you use SX OS for?

 

@Essasetic
Mainly cheats and the external drive is nice. That’s about all I saw that was different and a few other small things I can’t remember off the top of my head.
I did a bunch of cheats for ps4 and Ps3. I just want to relax with this console and mainly for kids and wife. I ended up not playing the ps4 anymore because of it. Too much time finding offsets/values ending up not wanting to play at all
Plus all of the family saves, only backed up a few.

 

thanks, I'll try

 

@atomik22
Let me know how that goes.

 

If you're doing mainly cheats and you don't mind sacrificing external HDD support. Atmosphere is a good free alternative.

 

@Essasetic
wouldnt i still have to manually search values then also tittle id's and ect.?

now another concern this new device is still on 4.1 and not trying to burn any fuses either.

 

Just to be 100% clear, "switch b" still needs to be an older, exploitable version, right? I'd hate for someone trying to waste time trying this on a brand new "better" model if it has no chance of working. Or worse, waste money buying a new one thinking they could use this to get sx working on it.

 

Of course the newer switch is “hackable”. Did the test and it smashed the stack. Did the manual test with no sd card. Got the QR code

 

If you want to create cheats, yes. But Atmosphere works with SX OS cheats and fixes bugs that it has.

 

is it possible to transfer your switch sx os licence from a working switch to a patched relatively new switch ?
Because sx os is supposed to work on every switch now right ?

 

what if switch a is taken completely out of the equation? what do i do then lol that switch a won’t read any sd cards

 

Solder wires from the connection points from the motherboard directly to SD card reader, if your SD card adapter on your baord is missing pins.
