I recently had someone install a modchip into my OLED switch and everything seemed to be going great for about a day. The following day the system locked up entirely while booted into atmosphere via emummc and I couldn't get any inputs of any kind to register. After about 10 minutes I held the power button down until the system shut itself off. I tried turning it back on and I was met with the usual Hekate boot screen and everything seemed fine.

Today I had the exact same issue and I attempted the same solution. I held the power button down until the system shut itself off. However this time the system will not turn back on. I've attempted holding the power button, I've attempted connecting a charger, I've even tried seeing if removing the SD card would change anything but nope. System is just stuck turned off. Any feedback would be incredible and I truly hope it's salvageable as I've sunk a not insignificant amount of money into getting an OLED switch and getting it modded.

As a quick update, I used TegraRCMGui to confirm the switch is on and in RCM. I have also confirmed the ability to shut the system off and when turned back on it does automatically go into RCM however the system has still completely gone dark with no sign of display output.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
