Switch stuck on boot logo (OFW & CFW) after 1 day use W 9.2.0 and 2.9.4

[metrodjpr]

So I upgraded to 9.2.0 OFW and did a Nand backup as for the tutorial, followed everything and it worked fine for one day. I left charging on the dock while on sleep on CFW and when I went to pick up next day it was in a black screen. Tried to reboot only to hit the infinite boot logo, on both cfw and ofw. Went into the SX OS which it lets me go in and try to boot from there but same result. I am trying to back up the nand but it's not working either? What should I do?? Thanks in advance


EDIT*** after it booted for a brief time on OFW, now is back stuck on the boot logo again, i feel it has to do with the charger if that makes sense? put it to charge, turned off without me realizing, one of the booting screen went orange? i dont know if anyone has experienced this?

Backup your SD card, reformat your card to FAT32, put only latest SXOS 2.9.4 boot.dat and license.dat, then try again

Just tried, formatted and brand new files and nothing... could the switch be bricked now? nothing is working, still stuck on the boot screen

are you using download SX OS 2.9.4 BETA

Well, I was able to fix the issue, after resetting and reinstalling the nand and back and forth, I decided to open up the switch and disconnect and reconnect the battery, voila, it worked... don't know exactly why but seems that disconnecting the battery ultimately fixed the issue, now am back to factory OFW 9.2.0. thanks for the help!

EDIT*** went back to the eternal loop after a few regular boots** im pisssed

Well it's not bricked if you have a nand backup. Something you are installed or putting on the SD is most likely causing the issue.

Are you using exFAT on your SD?
Do you have autoRCM enabled?
Can you boot the Switch with no SD to OFW?

Well I do have a nand backup that i did twice with no luck. I tried booting with no sd on the console and trying to go to OWF and nothing.. the only thing i can use is boot to the sx os menu but after that it just stays blank. when it does boot and i mean once every 30 boots it freezes when it tries to go online for some reason, then it shuts off.

Have you tried to boot to the Nintendo Recovery menu and reinitialize the console? If it ever boots, even if it's 1 out of 30 it's not bricked, but if your nand back up had corruption that could be causing the boot issues. Reinitializing may fix it.

What FW was it on? I only ask because it may ask to update in the recovery menu. Though all current FW is supported by CFW.

So I updated to 9.2.0 original firmware, then I saved the Nand and started using the cfw, used 2.9.4 and everything went fine for a day with the content on the sd card running ok, everything with exFat. One of the files went for an update thru nintendo I assume and after that the problem started. The console is not banned btw. Right now im trying to backup the nand which takes forever but im waiting on it once more, this time on Fat32

The nand is it's own format. It might possibly be fat32. I can't remember, but that is not effected by what the SD card is formatted. exFAT and fat32 are what are using the SD card. You do not need to restore the nand to reformat your SD card to fat32. exFAT is not really recommended as it is more prone to corruption, which is why I was asking.

How did you update your FW?
Do you remember if you have autoRCM turned on? Sorry if you've already answered

so I updated the switch online via wifi, and no autoRCM. Just did the nand backup and same thing, stuck at boot.
