I finally managed to downgrade my console back to 11.0.1 with only one compromise, Game Cards make my console crash.
I only own one anyway and NSP backups are a thing

Yoo can you explain how you downgraded your switch from 12.0 to 11.0.1 ?

Instead of downgrading, would it be possible to just boot the switch into the OFW?

I tried doing this, but maybe I'm missing something? I tried to boot OFW through hekate in both the payload options and the actual option it gives between booting in OFW and RCM. I also tried to boot through other options like Fusee, CFW system, CFW emu, and OFW but none of them worked.

Boot into OFW normally, just press the power button

Turn off the console? And turn it on again...
Yeah I tried that, I think its a problem with the switch as opposed to the method.

I tried disabling autoRCM on hekate but that still reboots into RCM mode regardless and I already tried launching the OFW from hekate as well. Whenever I do try to restart the switch it just goes into RCM mode regardless of whether I disabled it or not.

Then is autorcm not disabled.
I guess it isn't. I already tried disabling autoRCM in Hekate, but when I reboot it just ignores it and goes into RCM mode regardless. I made sure the settings were saved of auto RCM being disabled when I;m about to reboot, but it always switches to RCM and doesn't boot in OFW

I'm not sure whats going on, or if I'm doing something wrong. I pretty sure I turned it off correctly, but I heard that this may happen bc burnt fuses. I'm not sure how a fuse would have been burnt, but autoRCM doesn't seem to disabled even when I make sure it is.

Download the briccmii payload and inject it if you think RCM is still enabled somehow and remove it with that. It's worth checking, if whatever reason Hekate isn't removing it properly.

Did you press the "save" button after disabling AutoRCM?
