After not touching or updating my Switch for almost 2 years, I decided to update it and start fresh.
When updating to newer versions of OFW I used ChoiDujourNX to install any updates to avoid burning any fuses.
My original SysNANDBackup is from the end of Dec 2017 and was a snapshot of what my Switch was at the time so if I ever wanted to go back I could easily do so.
I had my Switch working without issues on a CFW and I had EmuNAND working off of a partitioned SD card (as you do) running 9.2.0
I backed up this configuration just incase something went wrong, and I needed a way back.
Upon restoring my old partitions and BOOT1 and BOOT2 it wouldn't boot, no logo or anything, just black screen.
Rebooted into RCM
This time I tried restoring my raw NAND backup instead incase I had missed something.
Same result, black screen, no logo etc.
Now I'm having troubles booting into RCM (which shouldn't be a thing as I believe it happens before anything else on the console always allowing you to get back in).
Am I just making a mistake with the way I'm booting into RCM or is it fully bricked?
What options do I have available at this time? I've been out of the scene for almost 2 years at this point, any info would be appreciated, thank you!
UPDATE: Able to boot into RCM and was able to load OFW from SysNAND when using Hekate + Tesla Boot Menu.
Immediately pops up telling me I have used this SD Card in a different Switch and to remove or Delete it.
Running System 5.1.0.
Is there a way to find out why I need RCM to boot OFW at this point?
