Hacking Crashes on boot - error 2162-0002

[Malke911]

Hi. Yesterday my Switch crashed while booting. Several threads suggests to delete the atmosphere/content folder - but that doesn't exist on my SD-card.

Any ideas???

Worst case: if you clean reinstall latest atmosphere and use the latest payload to boot it should work.

Thanks - but any suggestions how to fix it without reinstalling?

Can you boot stock and run games fine? Any issues such as flickering?

Also, is there a specific reason why you don't want to redo atmosphere? It's not time consuming and usually catches missing/edited files.

The only issue that I found that had your situation was hardware going bad, but that was determined after redoing atmosphere didn't work.

Hi. I cant even boot. It just gets past the Nintendo switch logo and then fails and I get the 2162-0002 error.

I have tried to reinstall Atmosphere (clean install) - still comes up with the error: Program 010000000001000.

Any ideas?

If you can't boot OFW (stock), then it's looking like a hardware issue. (GPU disconnection/fault)

Did you use the SD card on a mac?

 

[Malke911]

Yes, I actually did. But the error started occurring while the SD-card was in the Switch.

Boots fine in stock.

Try another SD card with only AMS on

 

[Hayato213]

You have .spotlight and .trashes, those are files left behind from mac.

Could that male a difference?

He means to try another sd card with only a fresh install of atmosphere inside. No games or other homebrew stuff.

It cause problem you need tools to remove those files or Atmosphere tend to not to boot or crash.

Yes, those files can make a difference so try using the Archive Fix via Hekate.

I’ll try and let you know. Thanks.

I've just tried - no difference

I think that error points to the PD chip failing, I've threads and repair videos elsewhere and this was the problem.

Well... I don't think so, since it works flawlessly using sysmmc and stock - just not emummc. But thanks - I really appreciate every suggestion!

 

[Malke911]

I've now also tried a clean atmosphere and hekate (newest per october 17) - still no luck

 

[bazamuffin]

Latest hekate is 5.6.3 the one in your pic is 5.5.8?
