Cris1245M commented 1 month ago

I was trying to use the usb tool for the first time but didn't worked, so my console freezed on the UMS screen, so I forced shutdown, but after that my Switch didn't power on anymore, I already tried holding the power button but didn't worked, I had AutoRCM enabled and now my switch it's on black screen, RCM not detected and can't do anything with it

Did you hold for 15 seconds? Try plugging into charger then holding power button for 15 seconds and then wait for 30 - 60 minutes.

Remove the cable from your switch. Restart your pc in case your pc's usb port hanged. Reinsert and send a payload. That assuming your battery is enough.

It's not possible to brick a switch like that. Well except if your pc has issues with usb and send a weird voltage or something, which it would still not kill it but kill the ESD protection. You should also edit bootloader/nyx.ini and set bpmpclock=1 to bpmpclock=2 or bpmpclock=3
