This is an advanced tutorial.Follow this guide at your own risk. I am not responsible if you mess up your switch even more. This Tutorial has only been tested on a RCM Switch

The idea of this tutorial is to fix PikaBrick ergo PikaFix, however it can be used for any broken Prodinfo bricks.
This fix *** WILL NOT*** allow you to go online.
The provided files have already had Incognito pre-applied to them.
**METHOD 1 IS THE EASIEST**
Methods 2 and 3 will wipe your previous user partition.
Methods 2 and 3 are now deprecated

Requirements

To follow this tutorial you will need a few things:
ALL METHODS
Your bricked consoles biskeys - Obtain with lockpick_rcm
Your bricked RMC vulnerable switch
A computer/laptop
HacDiskMount or NXNandManager
Hekate Nyx
Atmosphere

Method 1
Prodinfo_Gen
Donor Prodinfo File (or use your own donor)

Methods 2 and 3 - DEPRECATED

Spoiler

PikaFix Pack from xbins or the mirror links (Mirror 1, Mirror 2, Mirror 3)

xbins file location - /SWITCH/PC based software/Utilities/pikabricker repair pack

My custom exosphere.bin file
NXNandManager (Method 2)
Etcher
TegraExplorer

This tutorial has three methods. Method 1 is recommended as Methods 2 and 3 are no longer updated.
Please follow your preferred method and following the appropriate booting section of the guide. I have written this guide as I was following the provided steps.

Before You Start

Download autoxbins and navigate to the listed directory to download. Autoxbins will be marked as a virus but this is a false positive but is fine

 

[119880114]

thx you reply
ok I see file size(2.8G) and download speed is 6kb/s is impossible

 

[Adran_Marit]

Due to the nature of the pack been a Gray area at best I'm not willing to link it here

I have autox-xbins but i dont see the directory to download your pack, it's my first time to use this application

 

[Adran_Marit]

connect using xbins then navigate to the directory I listed next to the pack name in requirements, or use the new mirror link

That's an oof, thankfully one mirror is now up

 

[chronoss]

OK

It say you're banned for 7 days.

It's my first time to use this and i'm already banned, pfffff

 

[linuxares]

OK

do you use a VPN? Might be why.

 

[chronoss]

Nothing

 

[linuxares]

Okey, well. Someone probably will fix a mirror so you can get it via there. Because you never get to the IRC server. If auto-xbins doesn't go to the IRC server, and get you permission to connect. It won't work sadly. It say "something about drones" so your said IP must be in a blacklist.

@iriez do you happen to know the error he get?

 

[linuxares]

Nothing

There is a mirror in OP now

Any updates? I feel like it should work for console 1, not sure on console 2

Alternatively, instead of building a custom exosphere binary, one can use https://github.com/CaramelDunes/prodinfo_gen to generate a working PRODINFO.
