Hi
my switch is 6.2, i successfully got the update notice for 7.0 removed
So i wanted to start dumping nand and install sxos ...

But inserting my sdcard jsut brings the message, I need a system update to get the sdcard with exfat supported

Can someone tell me how i can get my original 6.2 nand to support exfat, without also doing the 7.0 upgrade?

but this will only make the cfw exfat compatible, not the sysnand, isnt it?
or shall i use sx os without emunand and risc a non clean synand, ?

But when i use it in sysnand, it will likely ban my switch when going online next time, isnt it?

Hi, same as you, my switch is in 6.2 and it ask to update the firmware 7.0 to get the Exfat support when I installed via my SXPRO key.

I configured my SD card to Fat32 with Atmosphere to install Choidujour to get the Exfat support separetly, but I didn't go further because of AUTORCM. if someone could explain me the consequences ?
It says: if you turn on AUTORCM you are protected from burning Fuse, but you are not able to turn off your switch anymore!! which is a MASSIVE issue if you are on a plane or don't have access to a PC. If you choose to ignore the AUTORCM then you can burn fuse until your switch is dead... Great thing!

What I do now, is wait Xecuter Team to crack the 7.0 then I will update my switch to 7.0 via Nintendo officialy to get the Exfat support. then after I will start to use my SXpro key. So I don't need to worry about Choidujour with autoRCM. I guess you should do like me. As I haven't run any CFW or game yet, i should not be Ban from Nintendo after updating to 7.0
Did I understand right?
  • If I use Atmosphere/Choidujour to install 6.2 (Exfat enable) it will update my sysnand right? but if I boot on sysnand with the SXPRO do I need to worry about the AutoRCM from Choidujour?
  • If I create emunand after updating my sysnand exfat with choiduJou, does the emunand will also be affected by the exfat support?
What is your suggestion? and is AutoRCM issue to not be able to turn off the switch affecting SXPRO as well?

Thanks for your quick reply! Yes I know for Fat32 but big games can't fit on it right?.
So you mean I can install Choidujour with exfat support and NO autoRCM.
Then if I use the jig/SXPRO/+ to boot I will be able to turn off the switch as normal? but if I forgot and turn it On without the jig/Dongle, I will burn a fuse. right?
and if I create emunand on SXOS it will have the exfat support from the sysnand as well?

on more question:
im on 6.2 OFW so it means my fuse burnt already for this version, if I install CHoiduJouNX 6.2 with exfat support on OFW (without auto RCM) and If I boot my switch without any payload/no RCM (normal turn on) does updating 6.2 > 6.2(exfat) is like updating a version and a fuse will burn?
What is the real issue of burning a fuse? because it is a normal behavior when booting to a new OFW right?
