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

Had osxs installed but autorcm was disabled.

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.

If thats the case it wont even connect then.

And i tried almost everthing i can find on the internet regarding the power button.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
