Good Morning all,
I am new to modding my switch. I have been able to get athmosphere to load and it was working for a few days. I went to use SX OS and it says it was not available to use with 10.0.0. I proceeded to downgrade the firmware using Choidjrnx.

The switch no longer will charge or power on. I have tried holding in the power button for 30 seconds, that didn't work.
I disconnected the battery and let it sit for 30 minutes and it did not work.

I have verified that the switch is not in RCM. The computer cannot detect the switch, so I am not able to inject a payload.

Is my console bricked, or am I missing something?

Any thoughts/ideas are appreciated.
 
You burned your fuses and can no longer boot without CFW. Backup your card’s data by removing everything off of it (cut&paste into your computer). Then, grab either Neutos (or whatever it’s called) OR get a package from sdsetup.com, and extract it to your sd. Use RCM to boot (sysnand should work, using a package from sdsetup). If that works, you’ll know I’m right.

edit: Actually, if you have an SX os license, your sysnand will probably work with it too. You just can’t use “stock”. When you first power on, KEEP holding the vol+ button, until you see the menu, and disable emunand, then boot CFW.

Dunno if you figured out your problem yet, since no reply, but you might want to check all of your .ini files for something that says “nogc” and remove that. Atmosphere, I think has it in system_settings.ini, and hekate in hekate_ipl.ini... and they’re written in different ways. For Atmosphere, I think the default value is 1, and you change it to 0. In the ipl one, just delete that line.
