Hello All!
Did I just permanently brick my Switch? If not, how do I fix it?
Current status of device:
Unable to power up (even after factory reset attempt 30 seconds+ hold), complete black screen but does get warm when placed in original charging dock.
How the incident happened:
I was trying to boot into SXOS via adapter and forget to put the microSD card back in the Switch, There was a coupe of red "BOOT.DAT?" screens that flashed before I realized the microSD card was missing. When I tried to boot up device again with mircoSD card installed this time, the device was unresponsive.
History of Switch device:
-Upgraded to 8.0.1 from 6.0 using ChoiDuJourNX around 4 weeks ago.(Not sure if this was a bad idea but didn't seems to cause any issues during the 4 weeks of very heavy use)
-Installed Retro-arch a week ago( I didn't have a chance to play very much but everything seems to be loading fine).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
