So... for ELI5 sake.. if you have AutoRCM you have to charge it while it's on? It can still sleep to do this though right?
So, reading all the topic, I can conclude that:
- Auto RCM (black screen) doesn't charge the console;
- After payload, it changes normally with the console ON;
- It charges in standby mode normally;
- If you turn it off normally, it doesn't charge;
- If you turn it off by pressing POWER for 12+ seconds, it charges normally, and doesn't drain battery if you leave it like this;
- After you turn it off, just press ON to enter RCM mode (black screen) again;
- If you let your console "die", you have to charge it for minutes or hours before try to startup it again.
Is really it?
It did for me, maby depens on what payload chip you have.This fud thread is still open?
Autorcm has never caused any battery issues, move on
if this works ill be so relieved. have had it in the closet for a week not plugged in assuming no sleep mode either its dead as a door nail turns on you see nintendo and a battery icon showing red as can be and then black screen.I just left my switch dead in auto rcm for two weeks. Charged it with adapter for an hour it turned on. What crap thread
necrobumping. you should try the battery desync fixI think I ruined my switch. I always use autoRCM and it's been working fine for me for a long while. New firmware update removed my autoRCM. So I set autorcm again. Every time I play in handheld mode my switch ALWAYS dies after 2-5 mins. Even if it's on 100% I get the low battery icon then my switch dies. But it doesn't die it just forces me to sleep mode so I can turn it back instantly and battery still shows at 100% or 90% I use atmosphere
What's that?necrobumping. you should try the battery desync fix
so it kept dying every second now 4-5 seconds so I recorded it but after it kept dying, it started working fine now. However after that video. My joycons keeps dying now. So my switch works now but now my joycons dies when connected to the switch. When removed, the joycons are fine. I change to another pair of joycons I have and now everything works again. lol wtfat least search it up...
hum i think (but i dont remember lol) i have auto rcm on, but my switch goes to 0% then shut down...now i can't charge it...
