v2 Switch stuck in rcm mode, tegrarcm keeps crashing unable to boot, unable to nothing tbh

[Lucyroth]

hey, my switch has ran of battery, so i put it in the charger for a while and it was booting to ofw, after that, i opened and clicked the buttons on the chip because my switch don't normally boots on hekate, after that it froze on the nintendo logo, i forced the shut off but now it wont boot and its in rcm mode afaik.

You have a patched switch with a modchip so tegrarcm wont work its for unpatched switch. Have you enabled auto rcm in hekate? What is the chip doing at boot?

i actually don't remember, but in the tutorials that i followed, its necessary the auto rcm to be on so i must have activated, the chip don't even turn on the leds.

the console is on rcm for some goddamn reason. tegra regconize in the pc and even the mobile rekate.

I thought Hekate states autoRCM features clear enough."This is disabled because this u it is patched"

check your emmc connection both the hwfly flex and actual emmc module.

yeah, i believe its actually stated but even tho, i barely goes to hekate and the console is fairly new to me, i bought this from another person who i can't contact anymore, theres a way to bypass this or just let me boot in another way? thanks in advance

open the back cover and connect emmc module back to the board socket without hwfly modchip flex.
rcm detected is normally due to hardware/connection. Until you confirm either caused by connection or actual dead emmc, no other way to turn it back on

 

[Lucyroth]

okay, got it
and after that, if i confirm that is just a bad connection, is better to have another chip or redo the process with the same modchip?

and a dead emmc is the end of the line for that switch? just garbage?

hey man, thanks for the advice in the connection, i opened it and found the problem....ripped Hwfly Core flex, the same one that the emmc goes in...i wanna hit myself in the face for it.... gonna buy a new one, the console boots up really nice in the OFW...

check the soldering too...everythings is alrighty, just the flex cable that has been ripped, i think it was when i was pressing it to see if restarts but then i may have just pull without knowing it.
