Switch Hacking Questions & Answers Volume 5

did i accidently downgrade my firmware? bit of noob and not sure how exactly to word this question but I'll try. so my switch was on version 7.0.1 before installing any cfw. and now it appears to not be. I used atmosphere 0.8.6 and hekate 4.9.1. I injected my payload with tegra rcm. first thing I did was create a nand backup. everything went fine I now had cfw on my switch. checked system settings and it showed firmware 7.0.1 and atmosphere 0.8.6 then I decided I would use lockpick rcm to acquire prod.keys file. so when I did this I downloaded a sort of pre-made package off of a you tube link and when I installed it I didn't realize that it had older versions of atmosphere, tinfoil, hekate, and a few others. so everything booted fine but how I noticed it was I didn't have to hold R on album to access homebrew. so I checked settings firmware 7.0.1 and atmosphere 0.8.2 I believe. so put the sd card back in the pc and replaced all the files with newer versions and booted up rcm again. now when I check it doesn't show atmosphere firmware and the switch firmware says update is ready. and homebrew works because I installed Turok using tinfoil while it was like this.
