Hi all,
I’m sorry if my question has been asked several times. I searched in forums, tried several advices, but my problem is still there.
I installed a new game today, which asked an update of the Switch.
I installed ChoixduJour on the SD card (root) and put the firmware on the same card.
I tried to put the firmware files in a new folder, but, when i lauched the homebrew choix du jour, i was not able to go into this folder, because it appeared like a file.
So I put the files in an existing folder (/Nintendo). Maybe it was a mistake.
The installation of the firmware was OK, and the homebrew said that I had to reboot, and I chose to shutdown.
I put the dongle and jig, used volume + and power like always.
I saw the beginning of the usual process : the logo of sx os, but suddenly the console stopped and it shut down.
Since then, i am unable to power it on. I tried everything i saw (power on during 15 seconds, then power on ; using the cable and not the dock station ; volume +/_ and power).
My Switch seems dead.
Do you thing i can try something else ?
Thank you for your answers
I forgot to said that, before installation of the new firmware, i updates sx os with the beta version. I installed the firmware after this process.
Update : when i was writing this message, the switch was charging. I tried to power it on again and the switch asked for a boot (i removed the sd card). When i put the sd card, i was able to lauch the beginning of the process (logo), But just pressing the power button, but it went back directly to the black screen after the logo.
I am not able to power the switch on by pressing volume + and power.
Final update : if i charge the dongle a few second, press power for 12 seconds, and then press volume + and power : i go to the sx os menu !
- if i choose to boot on original firmware, everything goes black
- if i choose to boot on custom fireware, i see the nintendo logo, and goes to black screen.
That’s all for my updates
