So a few weeks ago I accidentally updated my switch from 5.1.0 firmware to 6.1.0 firmware, after that my CFW wouldn’t work anymore and I was trying to find guides on how to fix it and eventually I did by finding the most recent sdfiles for the switch and putting into the sd card after I booting into cfw I went to the Homebrew menu to launch ChoiDujorNX and then I rebooted my system back to 5.1.0 after that whenever I went to go do something and my switch was on, when I came back it turned off by itself and was in AutoRCM so then I went to my computer to import hekate 4.2 bin to delete AutoRCM after that I booted my switch back on and when I had left to go do something again when it was on it turned off again, but when I tried to check if it was in RCM I plugged it in to the computer and it didn’t say anything about the switch. I tried powering it on but it still didn’t work, (By the way it was at 100% when doing all of this) I tried to put it into the dock or cable to see if it would light up or anything but it didn’t work. If anyone could help me with this problem I would greatly appreciate it.

The problem is you updated your switch to 6.1 officially. even if you downgrade to 5.1, you'll get the sleep bug. that's because your fuses are burnt to 6.x.
If you upgrade back to 6.0, the problem will go away.
Your switch isn't going to boot right now because of the burnt fuses, you have to put it into rcm again and launch a payload to boot it again. that will let you upgrade back to 6.x and will also re-enable auto rcm for you.

Actually I had another question PaperJin. If I were to update to firmware 6.0.0 will all of my nsp games that I got from firmware 5.1.0 still work?

How will I be able to update into 6.0.0 if the computer can’t read the Nintendo Switch and also the Nintendo Switch doesn’t go into RCM

Yes I’m still in 5.1 but I went from 6.1 to 5.1 and now it’s just giving a black screen not turning on or in RCM

Oh yeah by the way I'm trying to go to firmware 6.0 instead of 5.1 because I burnt the fuses

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
