Is the Switch bricked?

mostly I think that what you have is a fuse mismatch
you have to power down your switch by holding the power button for like 30sec
then you gotta go into RCM and push payload and keep autorcm always on for now
If you do upgrade to fw10 (which btw atmos supports already) then you can remove autorcm cause fuses would match

 

Just update your CFW and you're fine. All major CFWs support v10

 

just push the payload fusee geele or even hekate
after that turn on autorcm
This will need to be done everytime you reboot till you're on v9.2
once you update to 10 your fuses will match and this wouldn't be needed

 

never downgrade if you dont have a copy of your boot0 and boot1 dumped with your nand. now, you can easily flash firmware 10 or 10.0.1 with choidujor. hope you have a computer running windows for this guide https://switch.homebrew.guide/usingcfw/manualchoiupgrade

 

Not that I'm aware of. Hekate can do backup and restoring fw.

If you don't want to keep autoRCM, then I suggest doing this -
Put the latest firmware files in the root of your SD card, boot into hekate, launch atmosphere cfw, launch choidujournx homebrew, flash firmware, make sure autoRCM isn't enabled, Restart.

You would have burnt all fuses up to fw 10.0.1 at this point, and if you were to restore your older NAND which needs a lower fuse count, you won't be able to boot it via official bootloader, only via custom bootloader like fusee primary or hekate will work. If your NAND is clean, you can make a new backup point here with Hekate.

Also I suggest using choidujournx instead of updating OTA because it may be possible Nintendo servers have logged your previous update and redoing it may get the console flagged possibly.

Okay, get the latest atmosphere files from github and extract it to your SD card.
You can either launch fusee primary payload, or hekate payload > launch atmosphere.
