Need to find someone in the Toronto Ontario area(or North of) to unbrick my switch
I tried and my nand backup is no good. Now it won't even go into RCM mode.
Please Help

Was your nand backup from a different firmware version, and did you update and burn fuses?

It is my understanding that if you restore a backup and the fuses don't match, you should still be able to enter rcm.

What happens when you plug your switch into your PC and boot tegrarcmgui?

Btw, did you have autorcm enabled or no?

If you cant fix your switch contact me privately. I know someone in the states that can probably get it fixed

It's nice that you want to help, but I would also say to you @MeatieMeat to be careful who you send anything to - and especially to very new members without anyone to vouch for them or contacts to prove they are trustworthy

No dig against you, but I would be wary to send anything to someone who registered 2 days ago

And you have no backup from before you restored the old nand?

following Mattytrogs steps:
Brief instructions...
1) Dump all files in Dump To SD to SD card.
2) Install TegraRCMGUI
3) Get BIS keys. Use BISkeydump or launch Switchboot (in tools / info - dump all keys)
4) Restore console using "Use On PC" - "6.2.0 restore Files".
5) Restore from file:

BCPKG2-1-Normal-Main.bin
BCPKG2-2-Normal-Sub.bin
BCPKG2-3-SafeMode-Main.bin
BCPKG2-4-SafeMode-Sub.bin

5) Restore using BIS keys... Add your correct BIS key, CHECK ENTROPY...

If green and OK... Tick passthrough zeros and mount. In mounted drive(probably A:),
copy all over to correct folder...

BIS key 1: SAFE is empty. Here for posterity
BIS key 2: SYSTEM - Copy all over
BIS key 3: USER - Copy all over

Power off... Launch Switchboot.bin with TegraRCMsmash or whatever

Go to tools/info option in menu
Restore BOOT0/1 without size check (in red at bottom)

Enable autoRCM if needed...

IMPORTANT:
Go back to main menu...

Go to payloads menu...
Go to SD:/

Launch fusee-primary.bin
Complete.

Go to Album / choidujour and update to one of the included firmwares (7.0.1, 8.0.0 or 8.0.1) if required.

Complete. Well done.

    @SylverReZ Yup. Been a longtime fan of Ween. Not a mega-fan by any means but I'm pretty familiar with most of their tunes.

    I like electronics that use detachable cables, that way if the cable breaks you can just swap in a new one instead of replacing the whole unit

    most battery operated mice don't even work anymore if the internal battery dies
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    the L hdmi adapters work great on my tv and receiver. so much less stress on the ports using them than regular cables. in that instance anyway.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    A bigger battery could defeat the need for weighted magnets tbf

    @RedColoredStars, I also listen to Beck, some of their songs are fine. Only found out about them through Windows Me; you know, that one operating system nobody ever likes?
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i dont know why tv manufactures put the hdmi ports in dumb locations so the cables have to stick out, and then down, putting strain on the ports. Instead of having the ports along the bottom edge of the tv facing downwards.
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    windows me was mostly on laptops if i remembered correctly
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @RedColoredStars, I hate that too where you have to use an HDMI extension for an Amazon Fire Stick.

    I downloaded XP on dialup when it came out. Overnights for like a week. cuz I couldn't tie up the phone line during the day. It was so awesome and worked so great going from ME to XP.
