Hard to follow you. What was the question again?

Its evolved but it is now when using the 4TU Web exploit I get stuck on

Requesting access to device...
Preparing to launch hekate_ctcaer.bin...
Connected to NVIDIA Corp. APX
Device ID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sending payload...
Payload sent!
Trigging vulnerability...

And my switch screen in black.

I have this issue also

If it makes you feel any better, I never could get 4TU Web exploit to work for me either, running on Ubuntu. I would need to patch my kernel, and I'm not doing that. Are you absolutely positive your Switch is unpatched? Because a patched Switch would behave as you described. Check the first post of this thread just to make sure. If you can find a Windows PC, you could test with TegraRCM, just follow the instructions here. Personally, I push the payload with a payload injector (RCMLoader One). Much easier for me. But this is something that needs to be bought. There's also an app called Rekado for android phones. My phone is too old, and I couldn't make it work on it, though. Anyway, bottom line, make sure your Switch is unpatched first. If it is, hang on to it. You'll find a way to push your payload.

Serials between XAW10066000000 - XAW10120000000 are possibly patched
So possibly

Only way to find out is to push a payload and see if it inject.

It injects. Just dosen't show up

Well you might have to get a rcm loader or a windows computer to inject the payload.

I get the exact same result as you with the 4TU Web exploit. It gets stuck and nothing shows up on the Switch screen, but my Switch is unpatched. I can push a payload with my RCM Loader One injector, or with a Windows 7 PC via TegraRCM. I wouldn't suggest to buy an injector just yet, but try to borrow a Windows PC from someone for half an hour to install TegraRCM and the drivers, then test your Switch. You might still be lucky.

Thank you all for the advice. I'll see if I can get a windows machine

Crystal RCM says probably patched.
I am probably going to give up

If you have an Android phone, you can try with Rekado as well.
