I was having issues with the internet when going back to ofw after running cfw for a few months. I just bought animal crossing and wanted to install via the eshop so I went back to the original firmware to do that. It wasnt working so I reset the console without deleting save data. I then realized I have a NAND backup that I could restore. The restoring of the backup worked and was able to launch cfw again. I then turned off the console and can now not seem to turn it back on.
 
Excuse me, did you have autorcm on?
If not, then you could have burned the fuses, hence the switchs failure to boot.

Was the backup of a lower firmware, and if so, did you restore firm0/firm1 as well?

emuNAND is recommended, so that you can keep your sysNAND clean for online use, and isolated from your CFW activities.

It was a lower firmware yes, and I made sure to restore everything. I just bought an rcm jig and it arrived today, and it seems that I am able to boot into rcm and hekate

The reason I ask is because firm0/firm1 isn't backed up with the rawnand, they need to be backed up separately.
