Hi guys!
Yesterday I wanted to pimp my Switch because I hate the stutters in Breath of the wild.
Anyway, I opened up my switch, removed the aluminum shell, the heatpipe and the metal housing on the RAM to put some 0.5mm thermal pads on it and replace the SoC paste / remove the copper shield.
I have to admit, while removing the metal housing there was a spark between two capacitors because I touched it with my tweezer (forgot to disconnect the battery -_-). I started the switch immediatly to see if anything is damaged, just saw the Nintendo / Switch logos and shut it off again. So I replaced the thermal compounds, put everything together and now I've got a bootloop, which later changed into a bluescreen (Kernel problem as far as I know). By inserting a MicroSD card, this went back to a bootloop of the Switch logo. This also happens with an open Switch, so it isn't any additional pressure by the thermal pads I guess.
I don't have any CFW, never used a JIG on it before and it was on 5.1.0.
Did I brick my system or is it just a coincidence this happens with my mod, because I read a lot about this problem with first charge Switches.
Tried the "drain your battery and put it back into the dock"-method this morning but nothing changed.
Any ideas or do I have a 300€ paperweight?
