Too vague information
What fw? What did you change before reset? Hacked switch? Possible autorcm?

Plug your Switch to charger directly (without dock) and press power button during 15 secs
Tried this but no succes

I dont really know much about SX OS
but really it sounds like one of these 2 :
- Console went into RCM mode somehow (try to connect to PC or Push a payload with phone)
- Black Screen Freeze (try to remove memory card and then hold power button for 30 seconds. Make sure your console is charged)

Backup your data on the SD card then do a full format with guiformat
Since you're on 6.2 at times it can mess up on a black screen especially if you're downgrading and as a result would require the nocmac patches to run
Use this version of Hekate/Kosmos. if that doesn't work then your option would be to rebuild your NAND with ChoiDujourPC.
You're lucky to be on 6.2, it makes the process simpler.

    yeah
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no, I'm asking which one of them you are using
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
