Hello everyone,
I have a switch that is stuck on the Nintendo Logo. I tried draining the battery twice then charging it and tried again and it's still stuck on the logo. The switch has never been modded.

I also tried to boot atmosphere and sx os just to see if it would work, unfortunately it's still unable to boot. I heard the next step would be to remove the battery

Is there anything else I can try?

Sorry anyone have any ideas?

I can get into RCM. I'm able to get into SX OS and Atmosphere menus via rcmloader one as well
Tell me more:
What firmware are you on, are you sure you are using is the latest atmosphere?

in the meantime, try to drain the battery completely while in rcm mode, it might take a good few hours to charge it back so don’t worry if the switch doesn’t turn on immediately.

You can boot into Atmosphere but not into the stock OS?

I'm assuming it's the latest firwmare, this switch is not mine, it's a co-workers. I'm using the latest kosmos package. I can get into the kosmos menu, where it gives me options to boot into cfw, tools, options etc.. But I can't boot into CFW or OFW

I tried draining the battery a few times without RCM, I let it hang in the Nintendo Switch logo screen until it drains, then charge and try again. I tried this a few times and it's still stuck

Put your switch in recovery mode but dont push any payloads, wait that the switch battery dies completely, then give it another try.

either that or i have absolutely no idea what happened.. coz it cant be a wrong fuse count...

You might have to get a new one :switch:
Or simply see if anyone else had the same problem throughout the Internet and if they did see if they know a solution

If it's not stuck anymore you should never hack it ever again .:yay::switch:

That's not how it works. This sounds like hardware damage. And if it's hardware damage it doesn't matter if you're running cfw or not the fault will come back

Just an update on this. The issue went away temporary after leaving it in the dock for a few days, then it came back.

I contacted Nintendo and they sent me a replacement unit free of charge

    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.

    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
