Hacking Question Which CFW?

[joey_turbo]

Hello All,

I'm undecided on which CFW to use. I have un ipatched 4.1 at the moment, but I would like to play backups in the easiest way. I'm not fussed about any online play whatsoever and I have an RCMloader from xkit.xyz. I'm aware I will need to update for later games, so I will do that via the non burning fuse method.
I have spent the best part of a couple of weeks reading up here and there and I know SX OX CFW must be paid for. I couldn't tell if you need to use their payload injector only, or if you can use Tegra or any other injector. Is it better for loading backups?

I'm already in Atmosphere CFW and have a had a play around with some homebrew. But I've not been able to load a backup yet. Which would be the easiest CFW for this?

Easiest? SXOS
Middle road? ReiNX
Hardest? Atmosphere/Hekate

Easiest to fix both ReiNX and Atmosphere/Hekate? Kosmos

Great, thanks for that.

 

[linuxares]

To be honest, I would go with hekate via Kosmos.

https://www.sdsetup.com

Here is the site to get the packages and you can even customize them to your likings. Including ReiNX.

SX OS should be the easiest for your need to play backups, it can work with your injector of course.

I find them all equally easy but ReiNX is the absolute easiest because you don't have to buy anything and you don't have to config everything. They also have that little guide site that holds your hand every step of the way unlike SX OS...

If you want xci backup loader , choose sxos. You can use any injector as long as you have the proper payload, not just SX Pro. There are ways to load backups with all of them but I don't want to install them all.

Thanks for the replies everyone .

I have been using atmosphere for my hb menu and it wasn't too difficult to install/convert or whatever it does to my xci files ones I got my keys and I used n1dus to do the conversion.

I have my sd card as fat32 for now, so I've not looked into the way to games over 4GBs onto it yet. But for now I'm happy.

The only one that actually support emunand : SX os.

Def worth the investment to me.

Free CFW will no doubt get emuNAND soon, but yeah, for those that care about online SX OS emuNAND with clean sysNAND is the only decent option right now, and it's worth it for those that care about that.
