You can try to push a payload with Tegrasmash Gui, see if it push if you don't have a dongle to push payload. Your first attempt at pushing a payload?

It is not in RCM mode, then problem might be your jig, don't use a paper clip to be honest get a real jig like the one from the NS Atmosphere dongle pack.

maybe a patched Switch
maybe your jig / paperclip / foil... etc isnt working
try to compare your switch number with the hackable list

Maybe try the tinfoil method instead, but maybe your switch is not able to get homebrew, check underneath your switch where you plug in the charger. There you should see a paper with XAJ or XAW. XAW9 or XAK.
This could be your problem because if you try to boot a payload with a non hackable switch your screen will stay black. Please send me your serial to me on discord so i can check it for you. My name is Noaawie #5075

Sorry if it's complicated but in more simple way, The "newer" consoles can't get homebrew because they got patched

If you can tell me the first 7 letters/numbers of your serial number i can tell if it works. for example mine is XAJ7000

Another thing you could try is getting the files straight from Rei, as I can see that's 1 of those Nevercholt file packages/bundles.
