would like to say i am completely new and have tried to spend a few days reading and i am at the point where i need to decide what to do because i am unsure if it is the emmc or the apu or ram or what...
i have a switch here that i got in trade for doing some work for someone, i am able to boot the switch by using tegraromgui and loading payloads like hekate. i can load and attempt to boot up atmoshpere but it fails and says power off and then loops back into loading atmosphere over and over. i believe that if i were to use a larger sdcard, i could possibly use emuemmc but i am unsure if i can do that without having a proper dump.
when i try to do anything that accesses the emmc i get the emmc init failed errors. but i was able to get a prod.keys file that looks complete and legit, and i was able to get a dev.keys and the bis keys (i think are for emmc decryption). in tegraromgui, i can mount the sdcard and read/write to it fine, but boot0/boot1 or raw just hangs and never mounts in explorer. my question is that i am fairly certain the emmc has failed. is there any way i can say for certain that it is indeed the emmc? since it boots in rcm mode and loads payloads, it looks like the memory and apu and all are working fine, but i know that a little short here or a little short there will cause certain things to not work right. is there a detail schematic that a person can get that shows correct values? i have a little experience in soldering and a shit ton in programming. i wrote from scratch a ps3 flash tool that would extract and decrypt and validate ros0 and ros1 and many other sections of ps3 flash, i helped a bit with famous bwe flash tools for ps3... but i would really like to try and get this switch back working.
and the question, after all of that typing (phew). if i were to buy another emmc, can i rebuild new emmc data and write it to a new chip? i see some posts where people claim to have used their per console keys to rebuild the emmc flash data? is this possible? is there a switch developer wiki like ps3devwiki? something that woudl explain all of this?
any info is greatly appreciated and i am dedicated to getting this thing back working. just would like to know if there is any posts with dedicated schematics with expected values, and if i can swap emmc and rebuild and flash it and get it back going.
i have 14/64 fuses burntsku is 83, i didnt even think to look at what firmware it listed, but i will see if i can find that tomorrow. but any information is appreciated! thanks for reading
p.s. if i need to make anything more clear please just let me know.
