Upgrading/Downgrading Manually With a PC

This guide will teach you how to upgrade or downgrade to any firmware version of your choosing using the ChoiDujour Windows application. Your Switch does not need to be booting to perform this guide, and as such it is also useful for unbricking a Switch.

Read every warning before starting.

!Danger
This guide will likely take you 30-60 minutes to complete if it is your first time. If you decide to stop half way through, or if anything goes wrong, you must restore your NAND backup that you will create with Hekate to make your Switch work again.

!Danger
When downgrading across major firmware versions (ex. 7.0.0 -> 6.2.0, 6.1.0 -> 4.1.0), you may be required to lose access to all user content on your Switch including users, game saves and installed games. If this turns out to be the case, you will have the option to either restore your Switch back to it’s original state, retaining all of your data, or continue with a full wipe to complete the downgrade. This will happen very late in the guide, and as such you may find all of your effort was for nothing if you do not want to lose system data. Upgrading will never require a wipe, only downgrading.

!Danger
This guide is only for who do not have access to CFW on their latest firmware version and do not have a working NAND backup from a lower firmware version. If you have access to CFW, follow Manually Updating/Downgrading instead. If you have a working NAND backup, you can restore that with Hekate instead to downgrade to whatever firmware version that NAND backup was made on. In all cases, the side-effects below might still apply.

!Danger

You cannot upgrade or downgrade directly to 6.2.0, 7.0.0, 7.0.1 or 8.0 as the ChoiDujour PC application does not support these firmware versions. You must upgrade/downgrade to any other firmware version first and then upgrade to these higher firmware versions with the ChoiDujourNX Switch application if you specifically want one of these firmware versions.

!Danger
This process is very complex and contains many steps. Make sure to read everything carefully, as any missteps can lead to a bricked Switch. You have been warned.

!Danger

AutoRCM is required while your Switch is downgraded. AutoRCM is a software method of forcing your Switch to go into RCM on every launch, without the need of a jig or hardmod. Essentially, you are purposefully bricking your Switch in a controlled matter that forces it to launch into recovery. This might sound scary but is not actually dangerous, and can be undone at any time.

AutoRCM has the following benefits:

You will be able to bypass the normally required fuse count, allowing you to launch any firmware version of your choosing.
The Switch will not burn any fuses, meaning you can downgrade your Switch to a lower firmware version in the future should the need arise.
You will never accidentally boot stock firmware, meaning you can avoid having telemetry data accidentally sent to Nintendo.

AutoRCM has the following disadvantages:

You will not be able to boot your Switch at all without a payload sender.

If you are downgrading, your fuse count will be incorrect for that firmware version. Because of this, AutoRCM is required to boot your Switch until you upgrade again.

AutoRCM can always be disabled Hekate > Tools > AutoRCM

!Tip

In the past, downgrading below your fuse count would mean you could no longer use sleep mode. This is no longer the case, as Hekate and Atmosphere both support sleep mode while downgraded

!Note
This guide will allow you to recover your BIS keys if you do not already have them.

Step 0: Before Starting

1.You need a Windows PC capable of pushing payloads (you NEED a Windows PC to follow this guide)

2.You should have the latest version of Hekate and a working Hekate setup on your SD card (ex. Kosmos). If you do not, follow SD Card Setup and then return back to this page.

3.You need the firmware files for the firmware version you want to upgrade/downgrade to. These cannot be shared here as they are copyrighted. Google is your friend.

You cannot use 6.2.0, 7.0.0, 7.0.1 or 8.0 firmware files as the ChoiDujour PC application does not support these versions. If you want to specifically upgrade/downgrade to one of these versions, you must first downgrade to any other firmware version and then upgrade to one of these versions using the ChoiDujourNX Switch application afterwards.

4.You need a fully populated hactool keys.txt file. These cannot be shared as doing so is illegal. Google is your friend.

ChoiDujour is very picky about the keys file you use. If you have one generated from Lockpick or HACGUI, use that.

Step 1: Preparing Files

Make sure your SD card includes a basic Hekate/Atmosphere setup (such as the one installed when following this guide)
Insert your SD card into your PC
Go to switchtools.sshnuke.net
Download the latest version of ChoiDujour (NOT ChoiDujourNX) by rajkosto
Download the latest version of HacDiskMount by rajkosto
Download the latest version of memloader by rajkosto
Extract each downloaded .ZIP file to separate folders on your PC
Copy your hactool keys.txt into the ChoiDujour folder
Create a folder named “fw” inside of your ChoiDujour folder
Extract the contents of your firmware .ZIP file to the newly created “fw” folder
Go to www.balena.io/etcher/, download and install Etcher for your system
In File Explorer, make sure Hidden Files are set to be shown

Step 2: Backing up your NAND

By backing up your NAND (the Switch’s internal memory), you will later be able to restore it in the event that anything goes wrong, essentially rewinding it back to a previous state.

If anything goes wrong during this guide, you can always restore this backup with Hekate and restart

1.Enter RCM and send the “hekate-ctcaer-4.9.1.bin”* payload while holding Vol- to skip autoboot and enter the menu

2.In Hekate, select ‘Tools > Backup > Backup eMMC BOOT0/1’

Use Volume +/- to change menu selection and Power to select an option.

3.When finished, remove your SD card (you don’t need to shutdown Hekate), insert it into your PC, and copy the ‘backup’ folder to a safe location on your PC. Afterwards, delete the ‘backup’ folder on your SD card.

4.Insert your SD card back into your Switch

5.In Hekate, select ‘Backup eMMC RAW GPP’

If your SD card has less than ~32GB free space, Hekate will provide additional instructions every few minutes about pulling files off of your SD card so it can continue.

6.If you weren’t required to copy files during the backup process, once again copy the ‘backup’ folder off of your SD card and put it in a safe location on your PC. Delete the ‘backup’ folder on your SD card.

7.Go back to the main menu and select ‘Reboot (RCM)’

!Tip
It is highly recommended that you store these backups in multiple locations (ex. cloud storage, external harddrive, etc) as they may be critical to restoring your Switch if anything goes wrong in the future.

Step 3: Preparing SD card

Insert your SD card into your PC
Navigate to where you extracted memloader earlier
Copy the contents of the “/sample” folder to the root of your SD card
Safely eject your SD card from your PC and put it into your Switch

Step 4: Converting Firmware Files

Navigate to your ChoiDujour folder with File Explorer
In the address bar at the top, type “cmd” and press enter. A command prompt should open.

3.In the command prompt, type “ChoiDujour.exe --keyset=keys.txt fw” without quotes

If ChoiDujour says it cannot find firmware files or keys.txt, you likely put keys.txt or the firmware files in the wrong location. Try steps 1.9-1.13 again.
If the script fails otherwise, your keys.txt may be incompatible with ChoiDujour.

4.Once finished, you should see a message similar to “All files verified! Prepared firmware update is in folder NX-X.X.X” in the command prompt. Make sure you can find this folder, it will be used later.

Step 5: Transferring boot0 to your Switch

!Danger

In this step, NEVER NEVER EVER SELECT FORMAT DISK WHEN WINDOWS ASKS OR YOUR SWITCH WILL BRICK. Always select “Cancel”.

1.Press Windows Key + R

2.In the “Run” dialogue, type “devmgmt.msc” without quotes and press enter to open Device Manager

3.Put your Switch into RCM and send the “memloader.bin” payload you downloaded earlier

4.On your Switch, using volume buttons, navigate to “ums_boot0.ini” and select it with power

5.The disk should now connect to your PC. In Device Manager, make sure you can see “LINUX UMS DISK 0” under “Disk Drives”

If you see “USB Download Gadget”, right click the entry and choose Uninstall.
If you cannot see this, look through Device Manager for any devices with a yellow warning icon. Right click and choose uninstall.
After doing the above, choose “Scan for hardware changes” in the Device Manager toolbar

6.Open Etcher.

7.Click “Select image”, browse for “BOOT0.BIN” which was generated within the NX-X.X.X folder you created earlier with ChoiDujour

Etcher may say that BOOT0.BIN is not a bootable image. Select “Continue” anyways.

8.Make sure the target is “Linux UMS USB Device” if it is not already chosen

9.“BOOT0.BIN” MUST SHOW AS 1.57MB. “Linux UMS USB Device” MUST SHOW AS 4.19MB. If any of the sizes are incorrect, STOP! You cannot continue! Repeat steps 1.11-1.13, 4.1-4.4, and 5.3-5.9.

10.If everything looks alright, press “Flash!” and wait for the process to complete.
11.Once finished, hold the power button to shutdown your Switch.

Step 6: Transferring boot1 to your Switch

!Danger

In this step, NEVER NEVER EVER SELECT FORMAT DISK WHEN WINDOWS ASKS OR YOUR SWITCH WILL BRICK. Always select “Cancel”.

1.Put your Switch into RCM and send the “memloader.bin” payload you downloaded earlier

2.On your Switch, using volume buttons, navigate to “ums_boot1.ini” and select it with power

3.The disk should now connect to your PC. In Device Manager, make sure you can see “LINUX UMS DISK 0” under “Disk Drives”

4.Click “Select image”, browse for “BOOT1.BIN” which was generated within the NX-X.X.X folder you created earlier with ChoiDujour

Etcher may say that BOOT0.BIN is not a bootable image. Select “Continue” anyways.

5.Make sure the target is “Linux UMS USB Device” if it is not already chosen

6.“BOOT0.BIN” MUST SHOW AS 524.29KB. “Linux UMS USB Device” MUST SHOW AS 4.19MB. If any of the sizes are incorrect, STOP! You cannot continue! Repeat steps 1.11-1.13, 4.1-4.4, and 5.1-5.7.

7.If everything looks alright, press “Flash!” and wait for the process to complete.
8.Once finished, hold the power button to shutdown your Switch.

4.Locate HacDiskMount which you extracted earlier

5.Right click HacDiskMount.exe and choose “Run as Administrator”

6.Choose File > Open Physical Drive from the menu bar

7.Choose Linux UMS disk 0 (29.121GiB). If you do not see this device with the exact name, STOP! You cannot continue. Close HacDiskMount and hold the power button on your Switch to shut down. Repeat steps 7.1-7.7

8.Make sure you see a list of partitions as shown below

9.Double-click “BCPKG2-1-Normal-Main”

10.Make sure both BIS key text boxes are BLANK. Clear them and press “Test” if they are not.
11.In the “Restore from file” section, select “Browse” and search for the “BCPKG2-1-Normal-Main.bin” file inside of the NX-X.X.X folder generated earlier with ChoiDujour.
12.Select “Start” and wait for the process to complete.
13.Close the “Operations on BCPKG2-1-Normal-Main” window
14.Repeat steps 7.9-7.13 for each of the following partitions, making sure to select the appropriately named paritions and filenames for each:

BCPKG2-2-Normal-Sub
BCPKG2-3-SafeMode-Main
BCPKG2-4-SafeMode-Sub
For example, for “BCPKG2-3-SafeMode-Main” you would double click the “BCPKG2-3-SafeMode-Main” partition, and use the “BCPKG2-3-SafeMode-Main.bin” file when restoring.

Step 8: Recovering your BIS Keys

!Danger
BIS, TSEC and SBK keys are console unique. You cannot use someone else’s BIS, TSEC or SBK keys. Make sure you are using/dumping your own.

!Note
If you already have your BIS keys, skip to Step 9

!Note
If you already have a backup of your own console unique fuses.bin and tsec_keys.bin, skip to step 8.12

!Note
You can follow this step even if you have already updated to the newest firmware.

Close HacDiskMount
Hold the power button on your Switch to shut down
Put your Switch into RCM and send the “hekate-ctcaer-4.9.1.bin” payload you downloaded earlier while holding Vol- to skip autoboot and enter the menu
In Hekate, navigate to Console Info > Print fuse info
Press Power to dump your fuse information to your SD card
Press Volume +/- to go back
Navigate to Print TSEC keys
Press Power to dump your TSEC keys to your SD card
Press Volume +/- to go back
Go back to the main menu and choose Reboot (RCM)

!Note
If you successfully completed step 13 and your system boots, congrats! Your Switch is now running the firmware version of your choosing. You can close HacDiskMount.

Step 14: First Launch Failed

!Warning
This next step is only to be followed if your Switch did not boot during step 13.12 and you are trying to downgrade your Switch! Do not follow it for any other reason.

If your Switch fails to launch during step 13, and you were trying to downgrade from a higher firmware version to a lower one, it is likely that there were incompatible changes made to system save data across firmware versions. Because of this, the only way to complete the downgrade is to wipe all system save data, which will also delete all users, save data, installed games, and other system data.

!Tip
If you want to keep your data and abort the downgrade, you must now restore the NAND backup you created in Step 2 through Hekate.

!Danger
If you understand that you will lose access to all users, save data, installed games, and other system data. and will want to complete the downgrade, proceed with the steps below.

!Danger
In this step, NEVER NEVER EVER SELECT FORMAT DISK WHEN WINDOWS ASKS OR YOUR SWITCH WILL BRICK. Always select “Cancel”.
