Hacking Question Mounting HacDiskMount - Now Switch Boots into Purple Screen

[w1nn1ng]

If it's a success you can boot stock or cfw // Edit* Not Sure if you have to specifically boot into stock first via the Hex workshop restore. I used Hekate's restore.

hex workshop has restore sectors option after you open the 29.1GB emmc physical disk (which appears once you use ums_emmc.ini via memloader). just point it to rawnand.bin and click ok
you can do the same to boot0/boot1 after you get them to appear as physical disk using the appropriate ums_boot0.ini/ums_boot1.ini

Your burned fuses dont matter if you are booting with hekate... so it should boot once you restore all and you boot with hekate [stock]

I recovered boot 0, boot 1 and the nand through Hex Workshop and am able to boot through Hekate into switch Horizon. Is there anyway to restore normal functionality? How should I proceed? Seems to stall out once I hit the power button?

Thank you! I am happy to get my switch to boot!

Then you must install firmware 3.0.1 or 3.0.2 if you want to boot using normal switch bootloader

If i simply install to 3.01 by cartridge on hekate will this be adequate? - normal horizon boot as was before?

yes that will work

Thank you again. Before I close out this thread are there any tools / tips / steps which might help better keep from bricking my switch beyond repair?

Please post when you install 3.01 as I’m curious of the outcome.

Success from what I see. Boots normal into Horizon without Hekate.

use gptrestore, then mount emmc via memloader and then restore via hacdiskmount the partitions you previously backed up with hekate ? do not enter any bis keys if they came from hekate.

DUDE YOU SAVED ME THX IF IT WASNT FOR THIS MY SWITCH WOULD BE LONG GONE!
