Hey guys, I really need your help. I modded my New 3DS about 1 1/2 years ago, never had any Problems with it. But about a week ago, I left my 3DS on on the "illegitimate E-Shop" to download some game.
About 2 hours later, I returned to it being frozen up on the download screen and everything (->on screen buttons, etc) having a weird purple artifact glitch. I couldnt do anything with the buttons, so I shut it down holding the power button until it turned off, in hopes that that would fix it. Now, some times when I power it on, it boots fine and then stays on the home menu for some time, then freezes up and I have the same problem with the freezing. Other times when I power it on, it flashes the notification led red- or purple, and shows the missing boot.firm screen. I have already replaced the boot.firm on the SD. I have already reformatted the SD (using FAT32FORMATTER) then checked the sd with H2testw and formatted again, afterwards put my data back on. I dont know what to do anymore. I am suspecting it has something to do with the 3ds update (I had it downloaded but not installed, Luma and b9s were upgraded to the latest version) But also when I boot into safe mode, it freezes up.

If somebody knows something I dont, please help

When I try without the SD, it either flashes the notification light purple, or gives the unable to load CTRNand boot.firm, please use an external one.

Please try without SD.

Also please run a hardware (memory) test.

    @Xdqwerty, Custom domain will be linked to NeoCities. And just in case NeoCities shuts down, I'll move my site pages to the registrar.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, ok then why the custom domain? To make it easier to remember?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Yes.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I'm also willing to host my downloads onto their CDN to make it far easier to access than MediaFire links lol.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, makes sense, considering the current url has your complex old username

    I also am gonna add a Monero address as well, its anonymous and no fees involved.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Bitcoin isn't recommended for sending less than $500 because there's an additional fee involved for every transaction.

    But hey, it exists(tm)

    @SylverReZ, you need money both for your daily life and for manufacturing modchips?

    @Xdqwerty, I sell modchips sometimes, but quite rarely. And yes, I do need money that goes towards soldering equipment and hardware for projects alike.

    @Xdqwerty, I sleep a lot. So that probably considers me as either lazy or a night owl? :unsure:

    @SylverReZ - Maybe I'm being dumb. Where's the option for threaded chat? Or did you mean start a thread on the forum?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @WafflesMcDuff, Either start a thread in the other platforms and oldies, or reply to the thread you linked earlier.

    I'll give it shot. I threw out my back last week and all I wanna do is lay on the couch and play some games and try to get my back to ctfo.
    Getting up and down to try to make this thing work is the opposite of what I wanted to be doing lol
