hi everyone!
i'm ripping my hair out here and i'm having an issue that no one seems to be able to help me with. i'm a macos user with a modded chip oled switch. no matter what i do, including updating or reinstalling all my files i can not get OFW/Stock/sys cfw to boot. emummc boots fine, but ofw and the rest do not boot, it shows 'nintendo' or the launch screen and then just black. i have to do a 15 sec restart after to the homepage. when i remove my sd card and try booting into ofw with the volume button it once again just shows nintendo and boots to black/nothing.

i have no idea how to fix this. i'm at a point where i might just give up and sell my modded nintendo. any help is appreciated, thank you.

It never worked. I only got OFW to boot only once by putting some OFW booting code into my hekate_ipl.ini but after that it stopped working for some reason. I got my nintendo modding service 2 days ago.

When was last time OFW/SYS CFW working? How long ago you have your device modded?

it should be "fss0" (zero, not O/Oh) in the hekate_ipl.ini contents

FYI, did you try reboot/OFW from Hekate bottom right?
Yeah I tried to reboot OFW in the way you mentioned and without the SD card using volume buttons. Neither works. I've used every hekate_ipl.ini in every guide I can find so I don't know if that's the problem. I'm genuinely lost right now.

might be the modchip have not enough resistor value on dat0 making interference on emmc. I have seen this happened before on some emmc type( skyhynic maybe). Remove all cable connection on modchip side and see if it can boot up. Ultimately contact your modder to have it repair
