Okay, so I happened to do something really stupid and I'm not gonna blame it on my goldfish or dog. Updated to 7.0.0

I have a switch with sx os with sysnand (black screen) and emunand (working perfectly in 6.2) in separate SD cards, AutoRCM enabled. I got into my sysnand SD card (I use it to play smash online), got into the CFW and updated from 6.2.0 to 7.0.0 using ChoiDujourNX AutoRCM enabled. Console is still in AutoRCM but when I try to get into sysnand I only get a black screen.

I've looked other posts and I haven't found any clues about it, only someone having a similar issue having to boot sysnand from RCM mode.

Also I didn't update through the official store since I don't have a jig (waiting for the delivery of one)

I also have a nand backup (from the sx os menu) but seems I didn't do a back up of the boot 0/1...

Can anyone help me solve this?

It sounds like your fuse count is too low to boot ofw without a payload. Since you didn't update through official channels it didn't update your fuse count to boot 7.0.0 without the use of a payload.

SX backup should have everything (but don't quote me on this, I have never used it).
How are you trying to boot to the SysNAND?
injecting the payload from my computer, sx os menu, selecting OFW.

Btw, the nand backup has boot0, boot1 and full.00 to full.07, everything is 29.1 Gb

It is not safe to play online that way. You are not really in stock OFW, there are still patches applied such as disabling the fuse check. Disable AutoRCM and load stock OFW normally which will work fine with 7.0, and boot RCM when you want to use CFW.

Thanks for the reply. What I'm wondering now (considering the situation of my sysnand giving me black screen) do you think it might be some sort of a soft brick and I should try to restore my name back up or should I just try turning off auto RCM and try getting like that to sysnand

Just turn off AutoRCM and it should work.

sx os doesn't support 7.0 that's probably why you can't boot to ofw 7.0 from sx os menu, will have to wait for 7.0 cfw

But with 2.5.3 it was supposed to be possible to have sysnand on 7.0.0 and emunand in whatever, shouldn't it work?

He'd lose the ability to easily boot 6.2.0 (although first he needs to downgrade).
OP, try booting to stock via hekate (either reboot to stock or the stock option in launch menu)

Wouldn't it be possible to just turn off AutoRCM to get to sysnand and use the jig to get to emunand?
