Hi, apologies if this has already been answered but really looking for help here please....
I recently bought a cheap switch off eBay to play offline with CFW on it so I figured I would buy one that was faulty and fix it, turns out this one was stuck at the switch logo and won't go any further into the OFW. I know, I should have known better to buy something that is bricked but I like fixing things and don't give up until it is! :-)
So this is what I have done so far and hopefully there is some hope:
I tried and tried so many times to get to the recovery mode, pressing volume up and volume down and the power button but did not work at all.
I then loaded sx os 2.9.2 boot.dat on a SD card (FAT32), it booted to the menu where it shows "Boot CFW" Boot "OFW" and "Options, I first went into options and backed the NAND up so that is backed up on my PC at the moment. I then tried to boot in to the SX OS CFW but again it was stuck at the logo and went no further. I read review, guide after guide on what to do and try so that is why I am here. First, is there any hope? and if there is, can someone please provide me with a step by step guide on what I can do to get this switch going again please?
What I have figured out is, I ran "briccmiiv2 and Hekate and this tells me I have 11 burnt fuses so I am thinking someone tried to downgrade the firmware and it is now not working with these 11 burnt fuses, so really need to get it on the correct firmware but how??? Is there also a way to tell what firmware is on there from the NAND backup?
I also read you can take the NAND backup and update the firmware somehow (inject it) and reload the new firmware...but again, I am fairly new to all of this. I also have another switch which I put SX OS on and that plays fine even did everything carefully on that one by creating an EMUNAND. Can I take the NAND backup from that somehow and reload on the bricked one? I also managed to get my BIS keys (I think) I noticed under tools in TegraRCMGUI there is biskeydump by rajkosto so does that help?
Any help and guidance will be greatly appreciated
Thank you
