Well according to this thread https://team-xecuter.com/community/...h-is-currently-unhackable-august-2018.127786/ yes your unit is "possibly patched", but your saying that SXOS was already installed? So are you able to use SXOS or not? Or did you update to 7.x and are now just trying to downgrade to get it back?
yes thats right... the sx os already installed there... i was able to use it... but now i accidentally updated it to 7.0.1... i just want to be able to play it(my console) again... any solution for it?

The way I see it you have three options.

1. Wait - TX is going to eventually release am update to SXOS that will be compatible with 7.x. Nobody knows when this will be not even the mods but there is official word that it wont take much longer now.

2. Use a different CFW - There are guides to go from SXOS to atmosphere If you either cant wait or want to switch entirely to another inferior Custom Firmware. Here is a guide to something like that https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-from-sx-os-to-atmosphere.533337/ (if someone wants to link to a guide on these forums please let me know if there is one and I'll remove gbatemp)

3. Downgrade - Here's a link but be careful because you could potentially brick your switch https://team-xecuter.com/community/...kable-switch-unit-install-6-2-emunand.130467/

I would recommending waiting because its the most risk free out of these options but if you just have to have the cfw then know there are different ways to get there.

Hope that helps.

Edit: Yeah let me make that clear; option 3 is definitely not recommended but for the sake of helping here is pretty much all of your options. What tokyo said.

For you, I would go with option 1 and AVOID option 3. Unless you made your 6.2.0 NAND dump yourself, I would not be toying with one downloaded from the internet.

From the sound of things your switch IS hackable. 7.x Breaks SXOS support. Not forever, just for right now. Eventually they will release an update to SXOS and it will support 7.x. The safest option is to wait for them to release this updated SXOS firmware.

You can downgrade but not without risks. If you don't follow the guide or have no knowledge of what you are doing you could brick your switch. Downgrading is not 100% "fool proof" or risk free.

I hope that makes sense, I'm not sure how to word it otherwise.
