Ok first im from germany, so sry for bad grammar or language ;) and second hi guys.

1. Situation

ive get a switch that is stuck on switch logo, no rec or safe menu no backup befor that happens, firmware is 4.1 after checking the backup with Firmware Version Inspector


2. What ive done already (even if i dont know if it was useless incase of no original backup)

I booted in hakate done a complete backup of all whats possible, then also used this tut


/threads/how-to-get-switch-keys-for-hactool-xci-decrypting.506978/


to get the keys.txt. then i deleted the master master_kek_ and master_key_ parts out off the txt so i could use this tut


/threads/how-to-install-run-any-switch-firmware-unofficially-without-burning-any-fuses.507461/


i deleted the master part section because ive got an error and readed in another thread here that a another person that it also. the safe foulder also was empty like on that thread


/threads/help-trying-to-unbrick-6-1-0.532472/


ive done this process with FW 5.1 exfat and non exfat and also with FW 4.1 nonexfat. both with the same result still stuck on switch logo. after i dont know if all the work was useless incase of the start postion, i just wanna ask u guys if it was or if someone has another solution.

What's happened is that you've messed something up with the firmware along the way; I can help you much quicker on Discord, lemme know if you'd want that.

    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive

    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
