Did you update Atmosphere as well when you updated the firmware?

[BigOnYa]

When you say you downgraded the fw back, what do mean? And how? If you upgraded the firmware normally thru nintendo servers, you cannot downgrade it back to lower firmware, it burns an internal fuse that won't let you downgrade ever again.

there is an app that lets you downgrade your Firmware on certain switches i think. I dont think you can do it on switches that cant use the auto RCM

 

[BigOnYa]

Yes, Daybreak or ChoirDX, but you must have copy your original NAND (32 GB file) and boot0, boot1 files also. Do you also have this? And you must use one these programs to upgrade FW, so your not burning fuses, then you can use same program to go back to lower fw.

well i went to downgrade to 9.2 witch had from 10. serveral times no problems but once i went for 11 to 9 i get a crash error and cant get past the nintendo logo

 

[BigOnYa]

Why stay at lower FW anyways, why not 11?

 

[PatchWorkHero]

well i dont know if its cause it was outdated but i coulnt get tinfoil to run on anything higer then 9

Stay on 11, use Tinwoo. Tinfoil doesn't work on 11.

Every time I see someone downgrading they have issues. It's not worth it.

Edit: I guess my info is outdated according to post below Tinfoil is now working. Regardless downgrading hardly ever works and is not worth it for one app.

Goldleaf, awoo Installer have been updated to work on 11
I personally love Goldleaf:

Goldleaf, awoo Installer all have been updated to work on 11

even then once i updated it was acting weird with my console

Do you have a nand backup? But just FYI if it's old it will revert everything on your switch back to that day when you made the backup.

Format to Fat32
Clean install of Atmosphere/ hekate- https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases
Sigpatches - https://github.com/ITotalJustice/patches/releases

And should run fine
can also use this site to build sd folder for you: https://www.sdsetup.com/

Yeah maybe restoring a nand backup isn't necessary. But if this dude is really trying to downgrade like it's nothing and not even having a nand backup, he's fucking up period not doing research just assuming like he says he is in the first post. You can always ask on here before doing something crazy. Downgrading is not a simple thing.

Best way to learn, is to fail, but know why you failed, so you won't do that shit again!
