My Switch might be dead. Is there a way for me to revive It?

I've tried to to run Haku33 to remove the cfw and install It again, so I can get the NAND backup. After It is finished, It is completely turned off.


Sometimes, It boots into the official Nintendo logo, then immediatelly turns off.


Tried pressing all button combinations: power and vol up, power and vol down, power vol up and down, power vol up and down and home button for a short time, then long press for 5/15/30 seconds.

It has been charging for about 7 hours, but I can't even see the battery logo, when I connect It to the charger.

Can't boot into Hekate. I've installed Tegra drivers multiple times. Nothing. Ran Zadig but the computer can't see my Switch, only stuff like keyboard and mouse.

Tried multiple USBs cables and different USB ports. Nothing.

Is there anything else I can do to save my Switch?

Did you follow a video tutorial?

haku has been deprecated and PROHIBITED to run for several years,

at this point the only way is to use a backup of a working NAND (for sure you don't have it)

or recreate a NAND using the methds you can fount on the search bar looking for using donor nand.

I did. I know I should use articles and web pages, but I struggle to understand them.

I did not knew that about Haku.

I guess I'll try the NAND recreate. Thank you for the suggestion.


EDIT: Found BOOT0 and BOOT1! But I can't find rawnand.bin. Also, It might be from a lower firmware. But is It enough?

Also, The nh-server says I have to boot into Hekate, but my Switch doesn't respond to Tegra.
