Hacking I may have broken my switch

[IIAshPII]

I updated my switch running 9.2.0 upto version 10.0.4 using the system update in the switch settings.
I had an atmosphere error when the update was complete and ever since that moment the switch hasn't turned on
I have tried holding the power button for 15 seconds, 30 seconds and 45 seconds but the switch will not turn on.
I can not enter RCM it is not detected through TegraRCM.
Is there anyway I can bring my switch back to life?

Update Your Atmosphere Setup & Sigpatches

Try to hold the Power Button for 10 Sec then tap it once.

 

[IIAshPII]

Updated my atmosphere and just added the patches but still nothing, also tried using the power button like you suggested but still nothing

 

[crazy_p]

Did you hold down the Power Button while connected to TegraRCMGui?

Do you remeber the State of your Battery while Updating?

Did you have autoRCM enabled?

 

[IIAshPII]

I tried with it connected and without but still nothing
Battery was full as it lives in the dock
I don't recall having AutoRCM enabled

 

[crazy_p]

Ok if you dont remember, lets assume you dont have it enabled.

In this case put your Jig in the Right Joycon Slot and hold the VOL+ and tap the Power Button while
Connected to TegraRCMGui.

You supposed to use ChoiD

I tried with it connected and without but still nothing
Battery was full as it lives in the dock
I don't recall having AutoRCM enabled

It was hacked before the update? if yes, you supposed use choi to update your console fw and not via switch settings.

 

[IIAshPII]

I read that Choi enables this as default as I downgraded from 10.0.0 to 9.2.0 so I potentially have bricked my switch maybe?
Tried using the jig for RCM but it doesn't do anything

Since I updated without choi have I just broken my switch since I can not do anything with it?

IT is not broken, do you have a rawnand.bin backup?

 

[IIAshPII]

I do not have a backup since I didn't have a big enough SD card at the time when I hacked my switch

 

[pcwizard7]

u also need latest hekate payload
https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate/releases/

u hold the power button for 15 sec to force power off

EDIT. if u went from 10 to 9.2.0 u prob burnt more fuses and u need a payload to boot it. so u need to update to 10.0.4

 

[crazy_p]

Update via System Settings is absolutely fine if you don't mind burning Fuses.

How would he restore his Nand without entering RCM?

Try to charge your Switch for 1h or so, then put in your Jig and press the Button Combo.

You need to get what you need, just in case you cant get atmosphere running again.
need a make backups for:
RAWNAND.BIN
BOOT0
BOOT1
SYSNAND

He needs to know what to do, either way.

Switch has been on charge for several hours and I tried the button combo but still nothing

How could I make backups for these since I can't use my switch?

Battery probably dead. Charge your switch for an hour or two. Then put the jig and dongle. Hold vol+ and press power then let go of both buttons.

Get rcm mode work again, follow the steps you been told.

I've tried all of these steps and nothing has worked, I can't enter RCM the switch doesn't do anything it pretty much stays turned off but has been charging for maybe 3 hours even though the battery was full when I updated the console

When you are pressing the power button(itself) and the switch is plugged in is the switch showing the battery icon?

Switch doesn't show anything on the screen, only thing I get is when I plug in via usb to the pc it makes the windows connect sound

This is a good Sign! Try reinstalling the USB Driver (libusbK). Or use the one from TegraRCMGui
