Homebrew Question Update switch without touchscreen.

[wartutor]

ok so my touchscreen quit working on one of mg switchs (not sure why and tried fixing it multiple times) and i need to update. Currently im on 8.0 and bought paper mario and need to update to 9.0+. I downloaded the update zip and loaded choidujournx but cant use it due to my touchscreen not working. I know there is a way to update by taking my emmc dump and update it via computer but i know there was a firmware limit to it and cant remember enough to find any info on it. Anyone have any suggestions on how to possibly get it updated.

Wait for Atmosphere 0.14.0. It will have support for updates/downgrades using official IPC and dedicated tool called Daybreak.

https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/tree/master/troposphere/daybreak

Still some more testing needed, but the next Atmosphere release will include an API for performing HOS system updates, and a homebrew "daybreak" made by @TheAdubbz that uses the new API.

Should finally solve the inaccuracy/safety problems caused by closed-source ChoiDujourNX :) pic.twitter.com/QE0W6RpoW2

It is possible to update using a computer, but I would recommend just waiting for Daybreak.

For anyone that may be interested i took apart my switch and found my touch screen wasnt working due to my game cart board was not seated correctly. I seated it down right and the touchscreen began working again
