Don't update right now, wait for the new Atmosphere and Hekate.

Best update to 10.2.0 and AMS 0.15.0 theres just no need to update to 11.0.0 and patches are not out yet + 11.0.0 most likely will break lots of homebrews since its a update with big under the hood changes and there no need to update unless a new game you want to play needs that update 10.2.0 and AMS 0.15.0 will be fine for months to come

2. How to Update Your Switch?
2.1 Updating SysNAND:
Step 1: Update your cfw (and Hekate) to the latest version.
Step 2: Create a backup of your SysNAND! You can do it from Hekate or SX Boot Menu. Make sure to keep your backup in a safe place.
Step 3: You can update to the latest fw by official method, if you can't update your switch with the official method then you should use Daybreak for Atmosphere(comes pre-installed) and ChoiDujourNX for other cfw (See Part 2.2, Steps 2-4). Note that, updating with the official method is safer.

Is it possible to update the switch official to 10.2.0 ?

Im using the 90dns block.

It can dirty your NAND or even brick it so I wouldn't recommend other methods.

yes you can update from 10.0.4 to 10.2.0 no problem you can use Atmosphere Daybreak make sure to download all the latest patches and install them with AMS 0.15.0 before you try to run any games

Choixdujour or Daybreak. I don't know if we can post firmware link but search for "switch firmware archive" on google you can find the 10.2 firmware

Thnks , and atmosphere 0.15.0 will run just fine on the 10.0.4 fw aswell ?

Sig patches needs to be upgraded aswell ?

yes you if update AMS you will only need AMS 0.15.0 Loader patch and yes it will run on 10.0.4

Don't use Daybreak or ChoiNX on your SysNAND, especially not ChoiNX.
Just wait for atmo to get updated.

Hi

Many advices

Should i just keep it as it is ? keep running the on the 10.0.2 fw and upgrade AMS to 0.15.0 ?
Guess this wont let me play the newer games .

Or just stick with the AMS 0.13. ??

Kinda confused

If this is your SysNAND don't risk things just for 1-2 days, wait for the Atmosphere to get updated, and then update via official method.

There are no games that require a higher firmware of 10.0.2 and there likely won't be for a while.
