Hacking Discussion Was installing Odyssey to NAND via Aluminum foil &, error occurred, powered off and wont turn on!!!

[Mythical]

*snip*
First load Tegra or whatever payload pusher as admin (right click on program and click admin) and reinstall the driver to make the switch see the computer (sometimes I need to reinstall dunno exactly why tbh). Then I'd try to load up again with some of the stuff previously posted. Also did you install a system update with mario odyssey possibly? If so you may need to reenable rcm by (the paper clip thing/ whatever "rcm jig" you used.

Dude, I'm sorry for you. The same thing happened to my brand new Wii back in 2010. I installed a custom theme and I bricked (I guess the theme didn't match the sys menu)

Luckily, by that time my birthday just passed a couple of days ago and I got around 40 bucks or more, which sadly, went into fixing the console.

Next time make sure you make a NAND backup and take whatever measures you need in order to keep your console safe.

Consoles probs dead because autorcm discharges the battery quickly. So plig it into your charger let it charge. And then come back to it abit later and then try the payload again.

If nothing seems to work you said you had it for a week, grab the receipt and take it back and get a new one. And not to be mean but before you go modding an expensive system do some research on the internet before you do anything. I researched for 3 months to make sure i knew what i was doing, backing up your NAND is the first thing you do. The NAND is a backup of your entire switch, so if anything like this happens you can re install OS back on and start again. good luck with everything i hope it just comes on for you

When you turn 18 you can get a job and buy another one

You should've asked your mother to also buy you Super Mario for Christmas.

Judging by the fact that he hasn't replied to this thread I would say it's fixed.

Had this happen to me about a week ago although it was an SD install. I had to reinstall the driver in TegraRCMGUI and restart my computer afterwards. On the switch I held the power button for 12+ seconds and pressed it once more and only after all of that did I get an RCM OK indicator from TegraRCMGUI. The switch was fully functional at this point and I stopped using AutoRCM shortly afterwards because my NS-Atmosphere arrived. You really should've made a clean NAND backup OP. If you can get your system to boot again you should backup rawnand and BOOT1/0. Even though it's not clean you can rest a bit easier when things like this happen.

US labor laws allow it so long as they aren't worked past 10 pm on weeknights.

I had a problem once when nothing responded (black screen, powered down, autorcm)
The problem came from the SD card, had to take it off and on, then it worked

That, or he’s told his mom that he broke it.

Like others have stated, your switch’s battery is dead. Plug in the ac adapter from the dock then hold power for 20sec. Let charge for an hour. If you can’t connect to tegra then your switch is dead or your doing something wrong.

Or his mom found out he bricked his Switch and kidnapped him.

Or his mom found out he bricked his Switch and killed* him.
