Let's start with this: I'm an idiot.
I pressed the wrong button today and allowed my software modded Switch to update to the latest system update.

Now it seems bricked. Screen is black. No logos, battery indicators or anything. Only indication that it's still "working" is that you can see the backlight when it's on.
TegraRCM also still recognizes it and I can inject a payload but the screen remains black. Black screen no matter what I do.

Is it irreversibly fudged now?

I've looked around for a similar scenario and fix. Seen people refer to restoring the nand backup. However, I'm pretty sure I deleted that backup in an effort to clean up my PCs harddrive. (Again, idiot over here.)

Is there anything I can do? A guide to follow to at least get it back in working order? (Don't care about the save data.)
Very much appreciate any advice you might have!
 
Delete Atmosphere and Sept folders off of the SD card. Download the latest version of Neutos. Put the Neutos files on the SD card. Reinsert the SD card into the Switch. Inject the payload.bin file included in Neutos.

Thanks for the quick reply! I will try that asap and report back.
