Hardware Weird BSOD (Help)

[Planterror]

Hello everyone, long time lurker here

So I have a Switch from a friend's brother who has Blue Screen of Death, apparently the switch fell off to the ground, no cracks or nothing, and suddenly it shows a blue screen, no matter if I hard reset it or deplete the battery, or the dock trick, I tried everything I found here.

First thing I guessed was, that the NAND was corrupt, so I tried booting into Hekate, the switch it's on RCM, it never has been hacked (Serial XAW10104 "ipatched")
I put the jig and everything, TegraRCM says RCM OK, sends the payload and nothing happens, same black screen.

Could the problem be hardware related? Thanks in advance guys!

PS. Sorry for bad english, I'm from México.

If it's ipatched, then it cannot accept payloads in RCM.

 

[Hayato213]

If it is patched then you can't push any payloads. As what you can do is check all the ribbons cables , reset them see it solve your problem.

So, how can I fix it?

What do you mean by ribbon cables and reset them?
Just checked the panic codes, and the switch thows a Kernel Panic

Ipatched you didnt enable autorcm did you if so u bricked it

You should open it up see if any cable got loose or if the nand chip got loose. Wouldn't hurt at this point since you said it was dropped.

if it's ipatched I could never boot into Hekate to enable autoRCM, the switch is ipatched

thanks bro i will do that, any diagram link you have of the switch?

You can watch teardown videos, but you aren't really taking it fully apart, just reseating cables.

I have a switch with blue screen. Yet to do anything with it yet.
Could not into rcm but could not dump nand etc.
Watched a lot of videos to find a solution but none. Found a tronicsfix one recently when he has a bundle of faulty switches.
One was blue screen and he quickly mentioned he had never fixed one?
Didn't fill me with confidence!

One of the easiest fix you can check is if the NAND chip have come loose. I can't say that Nintendos' connectors on the Switch is top quality. They're actually kind of piss poor.

Not true anymore with the warmboot exploit

so I completely disassembled it, disconected every lego piece and flex cables, clean them up with contact cleaner, connected again, and still the same, I noticed it that the fan doesn't spin at all when booting, and if I disconnect the nand it doesn't boot at all

but you need to be in 4.0.1 right?

just to be sure i reconnected everything, still the same BSOD

You don't happen to have the codes? Take a photo with your phone and upload. Maybe it's easier to figure out what's wrong then.

Warmboot exploit works up to 7.1.0 (7.0.1?)

Warmboot exploit works up to 7.1.0 (7.0.1?)

Nope only for 4.1.0 and below on I patched switch https://gbatemp.net/threads/caffein...orks-on-patched-switches.541826/#post-8690996

iPatched units came out with 4.1.0. That's what that post is talking about. No mention of the warmboot exploit.

The op replied in a post above.

if it's ipatched I could never boot into Hekate to enable autoRCM, the switch is ipatched
.
So clearly the faulty switch is Ipatched

Then you replied with Warmboot exploit works up to 7.1.0 (7.0.1?)

So my answer is correct on a ipatched switch it needs to be 4.1.0 or less

You can install AutoRCM using the warmboot exploit. It'll just brick if it's iPatched. That's what I was saying.

So whag should I try now guys? Any method can't work to revive this Switch

It doesn't display any code, just a blue screen
