I updated my Switch to 9.0.1 through ChoidujourNX, but when I tried restarting I kept getting a black screen after the initial CFW (Atmosphere/Kosmos) boot logos. I thought I bricked my switch, but luckily I had a backup of my rawnand.bin and BOOT0/BOOT1 files from firmware 5.1.0.

What's strange is that even after restoring my nand and BOOT0/BOOT1, I still get a black screen when I try to launch my Switch, either through CFW or stock mode. I had a custom theme/lockscreen activated when I updated my Switch, but deleting the folders inside my titles folders doesn't fix the problem.

I had originally updated from 5.1.0 to some 6.0 firmware through ChoidujourNX a couple months back, so I didn't burn any fuses. Hekate shows that I only have 6 fuses burnt. One thing I messed up is that I had updated to the normal version of 9.0.1 (not the exFat version) even though my SD card was formatted as exFat. Is this the problem?

When I click Launch -> CFW (SYSNAND) on Hekate v5.0.2, the Switch just reboots back to the hekate menu. Stock (SYSNAND) does the same thing.

What am I doing wrong here? Why won't my Switch work after restoring the nand? Is my Switch perma-bricked? Would appreciate any help that you guys can provide. Thank you!

Are You 100% sure Switch battery is charged? Try sending payload, disconnect usb, and then connect charger. Do it very fast.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
