Hey all, I forgot to backup my NAND before I hacked my device.
I know I can’t back it up now due to the console already being hacked but is it possible to restore the console to factory settings and then run XS OS to back up the NAND?

Thank you!

the console isnt hacked, the card and sxos works independantly, unless something has changed (which I doubt). Just back up your nand. The reason you do it is just in case you screw around with it, or something flakes and bricks the system. Its also in case you update past a supported firmware and need to roll back, but thats not really recommended.

Thanks for the reply.

So just to clarify, I CAN still back up my NAND even though I have install .nsp’s and homebrew?

(Sorry for the noob questions)

not a noob question. the information on how this all works is fairly sparse. I asked a ton of questions. Did you create an emunand or are you using the sysnand for your game installs? Either way though you can still back up your nand.
