[Request] Support for FW 2.1 on emuNAND #431

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

As we all know to dump otp for arm9loaderhax wen need to be on fw 2.1. But it's risky for anyone who don't has a hardmod. If a cfw could boot a downgraded emunand to fw 2.1, no hardmod would be needed? Am I wrong?

sysNAND has to be on 2.1, else OTP would have been locked by whatever-more-than-2.2 your sysNAND version is.

It would not allow us to get te otp region, but it could help to check if the downgrade worked correctly, especialy if its also using the 2.1 or the emunand firm.

Running in emunand is NOT an indicator that it won't brick your sysnand. NATIVE_FIRM is never loaded from the emunand, it is loaded from a firmware.bin file.

Go ahead and try updating a 4.x emunand to 7.x or above (NOT the latest through system settings, but with a cart or BBM or something). See that the emunand still works. NOW, flash it to sysnand... Usually, you will be bricked.

"sysNAND has to be on 2.1, else OTP would have been locked by whatever-more-than-2.2 your sysNAND version is." This ^

I guess we can close this issue ;)
