SXOS and reinx doesnt load past the cfw logo, but atmosphere and OFW works fine. Ive tried a few different sd card and fresh files, and tried exfat and fat32. Also tried the sd cards in a different switch and they work fine.
The switch is on fw 9.2 and sxos 2.9.4 beta

What version is your firmware? What version of sxos are you using? You have to use beta version of sxos on latest firmware.

The forbidden TX website
I don't think you can link their website. Forbidden here. Even Garyopa doesn't link it when he posts updates..

look at the top of sd:\sxos\titles for a folder with something like 00FF00000000FF00 (autoloader). If it's there, delete it. And yea, you need 2.9.4 for firmware 9.2.

Also if you have a theme installed, delete that from the titles folder as well (looks almost like the Mario Odysee titleID).

Tried other sd cards with only fresh new files to boot into sxos, and still didnt work. But that sd card will boot into cfw just fine on another switch. So its nothing on the card

Fresh new files from where? Are you using the 2.9.4 boot.dat? Is the CRC32 D71D39DF? Are your cards formatted to fat32 or exFAT? If you installed the firmware with choidujour, did you select the exFAT option?

Have you check the SX OS Menu to make sure that Emunand isn't enabled if you aren't using one.

The boot.dat file is from xsox website and I used choidujour. Exfat and choose exfat. Everything was working fine, I think the problem happened when I tried to update tinfoil thru the tinfoil app on the switch.

did you try with an SD card with ONLY boot.dat and the license file on it? and saying it's from the sx site doesn't day much, unless it came from SXOS_beta_v2.9.4.zip. For all I know from my end, your browser could have shown you a cached version of the site, making you download 2.9.3 instead. I'm also assuming that when you say everything was working fine, you bean BEFORE you upgraded to FW9.2.

You're getting all of these questions, because other than the issues mentioned (themes and autoloader), nobody else is having issues with it loading.

EDIT: Wait... by trying the cards in a different switch, do you mean that the different switch is also firmware 9.2, and sx loads fine on it with your sd card, but that same card fails to load on this switch? That would definitely be something in NAND. I would try re-installing the firmware with choi... backup first, obviously. Perhaps even restore an older backup (if fuses burnt, OFW won't boot at that point, but CFW should).

is your license file ok not corrupt? if there something wrong you can't boot emunand and booting on sysnand will only let you view the sxos menu

urherenow - that's a good idea to reinstall the fw 9.2, I had a feeling it was the nand. I just didnt write every detail for yall. Thank you, I'll try that when I get home.

Its definitely nand related. I used Choi to update to 9.0.1 from 8.0.1 and was greeted with the sxos error reboot screen everytime even with the correct sxos bin. So I restored my backup 8.0.1 nand and it works again.

I was stupid and never backed up my nand, so hopefully updating fw works
