Hi all,
Today I installed SX lite, firmware 10.2.0 and SX OS 3.0.5. I was able to enter the bootloader/SX loader and was successful in creating a emunand. But due to some reason the system bootloops(between the Nintendo n switch logo) or gives blackscreen when I try to enter CFW. The system does boots to OFW but without the microSD (it's grays out), but the sd is recognized by the bootloader for boot.dat
I don't understand where the problem is, installation of the chip looks correct with green light, microsd is fat32 formatted, I tried doing a clean install multiple times but to no success
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Hello, did you manage to solve this? I'm having a very similar issue. I installed the SX modchip on a 11.0.1 Switch Lite, to the date there is no SXOS support for 11.0.1, at least it should boot from 'Genuine Boot' but it doesn't, i get boot loop, the only way to access to Home-Screen is by removing the SD card during the boot-loop, but when i re-insert the SD card it starts boot-looping again.

Edit: I tried another SD card. I tried installing Atmosphere using this new method without re-flashing the bootloader, I get the Atmosphere screen but I still get boot loop. I suspect it might be from a bad installation.

Nope, no success. I too think so the issue is due to a faulty chip/bad installation
