I sent my Switch in for a mail-in modchip service and just got it back today. The Switch worked great at first, but now it only boots into OFW without booting Hekate. I tried ejecting the SD card, and it didn't even error out. Someone on a Discord server I'm in asked what colors the modchip were flashing through the vents, and it's flashing red. Can someone help me with this? I haven't soldered before, so my ability to fix something is limited. Thanks.

Red means that something is wrong with one of the connections to the emmc.
I would suggest contacting the mail-in mod chip service because if you can't solder, you can't fix this.

    I wonder if they perma did evilnat for 4.92 yet
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If you got a slim, you prob have to do Hen, Not evilnat/ CFW
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:

    4.92 Evilnat Custom Firmware (w/ Cobra v8.5) Released - CEX,PEX,D-PEX,DEX builds
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea all super slims have to use HEN, but says only 60% of reg slims can use CFW. Guess it just depends on model, or maybe things have changed in last few years.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    One I just found is a super slim, so HEN for me. Not a biggie tho, my other PS3 is super slim also. I don't really need another PS3, but prob mod it n sell or give away.
