Turn off your switch fully and start it up again ? SXOS should definitely work unless they messed something up recently, no "cust_data" needs to be fixed anymore (it is already correct)

maybe my 400gb microsd card is the problem?

i tried with both hekate and sx os
all other homebrew work

It works if you boot via hekate ? This is what you should test out first ([stock] launch profile unless you need to protect GC controller firmware from updates)

Oh, it's not POST firmware upgrade, its just you not being able to run the homebrew.
Read the FAQ FIRST QUESTION then.

Excuse me, but how did you manage to extract the update files?

I got them from someone on discord who get them at xbins, so I didn't actually extract them. Do you have a pending update on your Switch? If so, you have them on your SD card.

Since SXOS hardcodes the hbloader they use... there's no way of launching this (or any other homebrew that require debugging svcs) until they change that.

remove the explicit kip1=FS_510_exfat.kip1 line.
having pre-patched kip1s in your ini is no longer desirable with kip1patch capable hekate, since it could do things like make you not boot due to mismatching firmware version (when you change the firmware youre running).

That's not all that it is, or you wouldn't have gotten that error (using exfat kips instead of normal kips is explicitly supported by the kip1patch system). Get the exfat FS kip1 again, properly this time.
(alternatively just flash the 5.1.0 exfat BCPKG2 to your nand to get exfat even without hekate, so you dont need to load the FS_510_exfat.kip1 separately)

So I updated from 4.1 to the latest using ChoixDujourNX and I noticed my hetake.ini was overwritten. After that I deleted everything from my SD and I got the latest version files from /tumGER/SDFilesSwitch (version 6.1). When I load CFW + Signature patch and when I try to enter a backup game it says "The software was closed because an error occurred.". Any solution for that? Thank you for your amazing work!
