Hello,
I had hacked my switch last year and in the meantime I hadn't used it much anymore; my battery was very low and I had to wait several hours before I could start my switch.

Once started, I found myself in the official menu of my switch in non hacked mode.
I had to restart PegaScape and go to "News" to get access to the homebrews again.

I then found myself with the homebrew already installed on my SD card the previous year and in particular "Choixdujour".

And then I had to make a mistake and I updated the switch to 6.0 (memory) through choixdujour.
Since then, my switch remains on a black screen.

It is well lit because TegraRCMGui recognizes the switch.

Could someone please help me?

I guess that your switch would be a patch version with lower firmware which can make an access to homebrew channel. If you performed system update on your switch with Choidujounx , it would turned on auto rcm which bricked your switch as your switch does not support auto rcm.

    Or, I also heard that if you use flash memory, it can act as more "RAM" at least windows tell me when I stick a flash drive into it.

    I'm watching the review, the emulators it uses suck bawls.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Software update might improve it.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Or maybe someone will make like Emulation Station for it or something?
