that guide didn't help, what else can I do?Follow this tutorial to generate a new boot0/boot1 to transfer to your console. Note the boot0/boot1 it transfers will have AutoRCM installed.

If that guide did not help AND you don't have another backup, you will have to buy another Switch. You most likely did not follow the guide properly so I highly suggest following it again.that guide didn't help, what else can I do?
I've already followed the guide three times, and I did the exactly what the guide said,If that guide did not help AND you don't have another backup, you will have to buy another Switch. You most likely did not follow the guide properly so I highly suggest following it again.
sorryStop posting in every forum, it's unrelated and spam.
I don't know how to extract the files using chodujous, but I have a file folder which is from a forum, it contains all the files that I need, it called NX_5.1.0 something. And by using that, I skipped a all the process in the guide, and started from the step8, but I do get my biskey via QR code. and when I tested it, it was a success. but I I doen the whole process, it doesn't work.... I think if I just restore the thing what you said, it remains the sameWhat backups do you have >??
Do you have a backup of boot 0/1 ?
Do you have a full emmc raw gpp backup ? >>Rawnand.bin ?
What system version was you using when you backed up ?
Download and run a payload called biskeydump.bin with tegra instead... Found here > Click
Save your biskeys.
With the above guide linked by @Draxzelex
you only need to use choidujour to extract sys build from update files..
And not follow the whole guide,
if you have followed the whole guide and did not have your biskeys then its not going to work as to follow the whole guide you need to enter your biskeys which you said you do not have .
So instead
get a copy of the update files from the same system version of your switch backup by a cart dump xci,
or via
AUTO X *cough* B *cough* INS < Clue in caps
extract the update files with chodujour
.. in the output folder of choidujour should be boot0/1STEP 5: ACQUIRE THE UPDATE YOU WISH TO INSTALL
Currently supported versions are: 1.0.0, 2.0.0, 2.1.0, 2.2.0, 2.3.0, 3.0.0, 3.0.1, 3.0.2, 4.0.1, 4.1.0, 5.0.2, 5.1.0 (will support more in the future)
WARNING WARNING WARNING: Running a FIRMWARE >= 4.0.0 WITHOUT REPLACEMENT FS_XXX_nogc.kip1 ACTIVE WILL MAKE YOUR CARTRIDGE PORT UNUSABLE ON EARLIER FIRMWARES.
It can be in any form that contains firmware titles, like:
(If you are conserving space, JUST the UPDATE partition from a cartridge will work as well!)
- A cartridge XCI that contains the update (dumped from your switch using homebrew or pegaswitch, of course)
These are common cartridges and firmware versions they contain:
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2/ Mario plus Rabbids Kingdom Battle/Cars 3 Driven to Win (2.1.0)
Splatoon 2/ Sonic Forces (2.3.0)
Pokemon Tournament DX (3.0)
Batman The Telltale Series/ Syberia 2/ The Elder Scrolls V. Skyrim (3.0.1)
Attack on Titans 2/ Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (3.0.2)
Bayonetta 2/ Gal Gun 2 (4.0.1)
Kirby Star Allies (4.1.0)
- NCA/romfs/hfs0 containing all the firmware titles inside
- FOLDER containing all the firmware titles inside, which you can get in a couple of ways:
- from someone else who has the installed firmware you want by asking for their SYSTEM:/Contents/registered folder
- from your own switch if a "System update is pending" in your system settings, the whole SYSTEM:/Contents folder (with placehld and registered)
- *cough* xbins *cough*
Format sd card to exfat
Restore your original emmc/nand backup by placing your rawnand.bin inside the restore folder in the backup folder on your sd card. the folder hekate creates
then place the boot 0/1 files outputted by choidujour into the restore folder on your sd card
Restore with hekate boot 0/1
Then restore Rawnand.bin
Boot cfw/stock via hekate payload, as autorcm is applied to the boot0/1 choidujour outputs automatically.
You should be good to go...
Its important you get your biskeys now before you try to restore anything...... and is important you use the same system version of files your switch was running before you broke it,
I don't know how to extract the files using chodujous, but I have a file folder which is from a forum, it contains all the files that I need, it called NX_5.1.0 something.

Thanks for helping me , actually I do have the full biskey by using biskey dump ver4. and I followed the entire guide except step1 , because my boot0/1 were corrupted. and I skipped step3 - 8, because I don't know how to get those files, and I have a NX5.10 folder provided by a forum. so I followed the rest of those guide, I used HacDiskMount, and I tested those keys, they are worked fine, but at the last, I was still unable to boot the switch.Wow.. Ok listen .
1.Format your sd card to exfat
2. If you insist on using the files from that nx 5.1.0 folder then only use the boot0/1 files
move boot0.bin boot1.bin from nx 5.1.0 folder, to the restore folder inside the backup folder on sd card..
Folder structure
Backup > NandID >> Restore folder <<Place boot1 and boot 0 here.
3.Place your backup Your rawnand.bin into the restore folder inside the backup folder on your sd card.
Folder structure
Backup > NandID >> Restore folder <<Place rawnand.bin here.
4 Boot switch into hekate bootloader.
5 Restore Boot 0 and Boot 1 With hekate..
6 Restore rawnand.bin with hekate
7 Boot into OFW (Stock) by using hekate
The boot 0 /1 you restore will have auto rcm already in them and will boot to black screen when you restart the switch , you need to boot into hekate and run ofw or cfw from there to load.
Simply If your skipping steps in a guide and expect it to work then it will not..
You had mentioned you did not have a full biskey dump and you cannot follow the no burn fuse guide without a full biskey dump
That is why i told you to redump your biskeys with the biskey dump payload...
If you do not wish to listen or follow the advice given then i no longer can help you,
You also need to provide more information on what you are doing your process also.. and the files you maybe using...
And if you have time, I want to explain the whole process to you. and where am I right nowWow.. Ok listen .

Failed to restore according to what you said, because the boot0/1 in the NX5.1.0 are with extensions .bin , I guess, what should I do?Wow.. Ok listen .

And by using that, I skipped a all the process in the guide, and started from the step8
I have the biskey ,when I did the turorials. And you know what, I have those files which is generated by a forum, and I think it can be used by myself?. because I can follow the rest of the guide to recover the switch. like they asked me to copy the xxx from the NX5.1.0 folder, or they asked me to varify my biskey, I can do all of them. but still, it deosn't work
OK WOW. You skip like all steps that generate the files that you need for your specific console and then wonder it doesn't work.
You absolutely need to get your own biskeys, and also need to generate the console-specific image files as described in Step 7.
Can't just use them as they come.
Just follow the damntraintutorial to the point and then be greeted with a wonderfully working Switch.
Someone also said that that tutorial only recover a 1.5MB boot0, and that may be the reason why it doesn't work, because I lost the whole BOOT0. how do u think

it's 5.1.0 , I believe, because before I hacked it, I always make sure it is up to date, do you have any suggestion?fengbo, what system firmware is installed on your Switch?
Thanks for helping me , actually I do have the full biskey by using biskey dump ver4. and I followed the entire guide except step1 , because my boot0/1 were corrupted. and I skipped step3 - 8, because I don't know how to get those files, and I have a NX5.10 folder provided by a forum. so I followed the rest of those guide, I used HacDiskMount, and I tested those keys, they are worked fine, but at the last, I was still unable to boot the switch.
Is it because I did not use the correct SD card files?
Could you explain more, Do I only need to copy the boot0/1 and rawnand according what you said ? I do not need to put more files on my SD card right? and Could you give me the hekate bin? I do have one, but I want to follow exactly what you said . Again, thanks for helping me
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
And if you have time, I want to explain the whole process to you. and where am I right now
1. I used the folder a forum provided, I copied the sd card file into my SD card, and then I used the hekate3.2 to boot my switch, after those process, it success, I did back up at that time, but I think the back up process was messed up. Because I only get a 4GB's rawnand file. But I don't know these much at that time
2. The switch worked fine, but I want to connect to internet to unlink my nintendo account, so I restored the BOOT0/1 ,and I try to restore the rawnand. but it failed, because its size only 4GB, and after that , my switch bricked, when I try to launch firmware using heakte, it said can not find package1. and at this time, I backed up the rawnand file agian. and its size is 29GB, and this is the only backed up file I have right now
3. I copied a boot0/1 from a friend. and I tried to restore that, it still didn't work, but it started to prompt "initializing... loaded package1 and keyblobs" and it stucked at there.
4. I started to look help form this forum, and a good guy told me I need to follow that guide to restore my boot0/1 , then I tried to follow it, but I skipped the first step, because my boot0/1 isn't good, and I realized that the step3-8 is too hard for me, and I can get a NX5.10 folder, which is similar to what the guide said after step8.(Note that I did get the full biskey via biskey dump ver4). and I followed the entire guide after step8. but it still didn't help, I am not sure if I messed up the last step. because when I try to use hekate, I copied the SD file (from this link https://github.com/tumGER/SDFilesSwitch/releases). and I also replaced the hekate.ini as the guide said so. and I used hekate3.2 to boot the switch, but when I tried to launch the cfw. it still showed the same message as before
Nope, I restored the non-working nand, that's true, but it didn't work, it showed restored fail, because it can not find correct file. after that , I backed up my rawnand again, and it worked, I got a 29GB nand. and I followed the entire guide , but it still doesn't work. the author of the hekate told me that the choi only restored 1.5MB of the BOOT0. he siad that the keyblobs in my boot0 may be corrupted, I need to restore the keyblobs back ,how do you think ? or I just follow what you said above?Ok so my method will not work for you... i tell you why...
You have just told me that your first backup of rawnand was only 4gb ,, well thats not enough,, you then told me you tried to restore that 4gb which did not work..now i do not know but if you made a backup of a non working nand you may of just replicated the issue in your nand backup so your rawnand.bin maybe useless to just simply restore without rebuilding it... but still keep your backup as it holds your prod information..
I recommend that you follow the no fuse burn guide..
And start from STEP 7,
Here are the nx-5.1.0 files > Download < Mods these are update files only
Extract the folder
Rename the NintendoSDK Firmware for NX 5.1.0-3.0 folder to something manageable like NX510
make a new folder inside the c: drive called Choidujour.
Place your keys.txt /Nx510 folder/choidujour files/and hactoolfiles. into the root of the folder you created..
C:\Choidujour << Place keys/nx510 folder/choidujour/hactool in this folder..
Open command prompt with admin privileges
And change directory to
cd C:\Choidujour
Then type
ChoiDujour.exe --keyset=keys.txt C:\Choidujour\NX510
Press enter
your choidujour should now start creating system files for you to use with hackdiskmount
and output them to a folder within C:\Choidujour
Inside that folder that choirdujour outputs should be boot 0 boot 1 copy those to the restore folder inside the backup folder on sd card
Backup\Restore\Place boot 0 boot 1 here ..
Now before we try anything else restore those with hekate bootloader first and see if you can boot into horizon...
If you cannot boot the switch normally then
Continue with the guide from step 8.1
Follow from this step exactly and take your time...
I do not recommend you keep your user settings, as this may cause you more issues, but it is your choice, id rather have my switch fixed and not be a paperweight then have my saves, but you can choice to save or not to save..
As it may or may not work if you keep user settings..
Also once you restore boot0 boot 1 the switch will have auto rcm automatically installed and will goto rcm mode when you turn the console on showing you nothing but a blank screen, boot hekate and run stock or ofw...
You do not need to edit or replace the hekate ini file as you are restoring the same system version...
If you still have issues trying to boot, i recommend you use payload called briccmii v2
and uninstall auto rcm.. reinstall auto rcm then uninstall auto rcm again then boot the switch normally without a jig or rcm mode
above exactly....Nope, I restored the non-working nand, that's true, but it didn't work, it showed restored fail, because it can not find correct file. after that , I backed up my rawnand again, and it worked, I got a 29GB nand. and I followed the entire guide , but it still doesn't work. the author of the hekate told me that the choi only restored 1.5MB of the BOOT0. he siad that the keyblobs in my boot0 may be corrupted, I need to restore the keyblobs back ,how do you think ? or I just follow what you said above?
What is hacktools ? And for this "C:\Choidujour << Place keys/nx510 folder/choidujour/hactool in this folder.." you mean, just put those file in that folder accordingly right?above exactly....
