6.2 burns 8 fuses.
You can have only a max of 7 fuses burned to run 6.1.
Any more than that and the console won't boot.
Bootloaders like Hekate skips the fuse check.
Which is why you were able to boot "Stock".
If you don't use a bootloader like Hekate, you won't be able to boot 6.1.
What to do:
- Hold the power button for 20+ seconds to make sure your Switch is off
(and not simply frozen due to the fuse check).
- Then try to boot into RCM again.
- And inject Hekate.
- If it doesn't work, the RCM attempt failed.
- Start over from the top, holding the power button for 20+ seconds again
(because your Switch is probably frozen from the fuse check)
This is the only thing you can do right now.
There should've been no permanent damage done to your Switch
(except to your pins, by the paperclip, if you weren't careful).
The worst part is not being able to tell if you have a charge left or not.
And not being able to tell apart:
- RCM,
- being frozen from the fuse check,
- and just being off.
