Everything except Horizon should launch. So we could theoretically launch Linux, dump the Nand and extract the Savegames from it

Hi,
I unfortunately installed the bad/hacked Pikachu NSP that was going around early today and now my Switch is bricked.
I have a NAND backup of my switch but that was taken months ago when the switch was still on 5.1 and I installed 6.1 using ChoidujourNX today.

Can I just restore my NAND which I assume will put me back on 5.1, without making the brick even worse?

Thanks in advance.

Time to ask your mom to get you a second switch. She won't be happy.

Don`t be a prick all your life. You need to think that most of these who bricked are probably kids. Think about thier parents coming up to christmas.

Looks like you can generate everything down to offset 0480 (device cert). After that you are fucked. This is JUST a PRODINFO bricker. If you have a legit PRODINFO, you can restore that and your console should be fixed.

So, yeah. I hate Pokemon too and have no idea what it is about.

But to write over the certs is beyond low.

Way to go Creatable and JellyFatFucker.

Backup prodinfo, try them both?

Or do what I do and pretend Pokecrap doesn`t exist.

Fortunately, there's already a solution for this kind of thing. We should be able to share a hash in a thread here without breaking any rules.
There is no solution besides restoring a NAND backup. You cannot generade PRODINFO out of thin air, without the tool Nintendo uses and this is not part of the leaked SDK.

Restore NAND backup, boot Switch through Heakte, update to 6.1 again, done.

You can SOME of the prodinfo, up to the certs, but without the certs, you are screwed. Jellybaby really done a number on these consoles...
