Right so here goes,
Originally i thought you had said that OFW was working fine, that you can get in or to the nintendo main menu without a sd card in..
Now..
If you cant boot into OFW then sir you have bigger issues then a sd card..
The sd card and or reader maybe fine, but a bad diagnosis.
That said, its time to look at or fix nand.
Try something for me.
Remove SDcard.
And go into hekate and take screenshots or pics of the emmc information.
If it does not work. Then we need to look at the emmc module,
Could you be a little gentle and remove the EMMC module, check the pins on the zif socket.
and reseat it.. Do you get emmc info in hekate now ?
If not . Try this.
Use memloader payload but this time mount the EMMC
Then use Nx Nand manager or hacdiskmount. and see if you can load the pyhsical drive..
Im thinking now that you have Emmc issues,
Get as much info out of Hekate take pics and post, also same with memloader and or any errors you get along the way.
If you cant boot ofw, then you def have hardware short,failure or corrupt emmc or dead emmc, il say it how it is..
You was playing a game and it froze, now you cant boot ofw and your getting Weirds emmc or sd issues, Im hoping you didnt overheat and cause a cold solder joint..
I dont mean to scare ya or think oh ffs. But we need to look at nand now..
If your able to restore or not or even boot into OFW should be our first step.
You say you have a backup,? Did you backup boot0 boot1 and your system keys ?
You should.we may need those.
Also thinking about it, try sending the LockpickRCM payload also, with sd card in. See if you can dump keys Without getting errors of unable to read package 1/2 etc..
Report back. Hope i made some sence..
Okay, so when I try to view the emmc info, it will either tell me, Failed to init emmc or the screen will freeze. I opened it up and removed the emmc module and took a look at the zif socket and all of the pins look good to me. I am attaching a picture of it and the connector for the SD card reader. I reseated it and ensured it had a good connection and put it back together but had the same results.
When I try to do anything with memloader including mounting emmc, it always says Failed to mount SD card. I attached a pic of that too.
I do have a full backup of the NAND and want to try to restore it but don't know how I can do it without memloader working.
Also when loading LockpickRCM payload, I am unable to dump the keys as I get errors for the SD card. I am also attaching a pic of that.
